Interviewer: You are watching another great episode here
on metrobrokersTV.com and I am joined today in the studio with Rhonda
Giles. Rhonda, thank you for coming down
and joining us.
Rhonda Giles: Scott, thank you very much for having me.
Interviewer: Tell us your story. How did you get to become a Metro
Broker? Why did you choose Metro
Brokers?
Rhonda Giles: Well Scott, I have been in real estate for 34
years now in the Northern Colorado area, the entire time in Greeley and I have
been with the big companies and I have been with small companies and the more I
have got more familiar with Metro Brokers and their concepts and the
independence and the independent companies working together did sound like a
wonderful idea and that's what I really, really like doing is being
independent, but yet working with other companies when we need to.
Interviewer: Now, did you... what company were you with
before Metro Brokers or were you... this is a small independent company?
Rhonda Giles: I have been, in Greeley, I have been with both, smaller
companies and the larger companies. The
last office I was with was New Horizons before I went to Metro Brokers.
Interviewer: And then you decided to come around in[Phonetic] full force
and with Metro Brokers and decided to open up an office in Greeley, correct?
Rhonda Giles: Yes, that is correct. Back in the early '90s, I got very involved
at state level with the CRS Chapter, certified residential specialist, and as I
was going through the different chairs and working throughout the state with
CRS, I got to know a lot more Metro Broker people and they all impressed me and
they all enjoyed so much that they talked to me about it many times about why I
should join Metro Brokers and the details of opening Metro Brokers and bringing
it into a town like Greeley and so we decided that's exactly what we wanted to
do and we started a Metro Broker office in Greeley?
Interviewer: And where is that office in Greeley?
Rhonda Giles: We are located at 3835 West 10th Street in Greeley. It is right next door to the brand new post
office on West 10th Street or Highway 34, so a very good location and lot of
exposure.
Interviewer: And how is it going for you with Metro
Brokers? So, you haven't left, so you
must be enjoying it.
Rhonda Giles: Love it.
We opened our office in 1996.
There were just three of us when we first opened up.
Interviewer: And how many brokers do you have in your
office now?
Rhonda Giles: Scott, right now we have approximately 10
brokers and we are growing.
Interviewer: So, you definitely out there recruiting.
Rhonda Giles: Recruiting and enjoying every minute of it.
Interviewer: And let's talk about more of what you are
doing up in Greeley. You are trying to get the name out there. Is there any special things you are doing to
help out, to grow Metro Brokers up in Greeley?
Rhonda Giles: Since we are one of the original offices in
Northern Colorado, we are helping try opening offices in Loveland
and in Fort Collins
and promoting the ideas of independent companies working together.
Interviewer: So, you definitely enjoy being your own boss.
Rhonda Giles: Very much so.
Interviewer: Any last thing that people should know about
why they should be a Metro Broker?
Rhonda Giles: Very much so ; it's we have got fantastic
technology, the website, like the metrobrokerstv, ads, we supply... sponsor The Rockies[Phonetic],
we just have a lot of publicity, a lot of coverage, a lot of exposure and we
work well together as independent brokers working together.
Interviewer: So, basically to sum it up, best name, best
price in the real estate business today correct?
Rhonda Giles: Definitely.
Interviewer: All right.
From Rhonda's mouth to our own ears, it's the best name, best price in
real estate. For more great interviews,
