What ‘being the best’ means to 5 agents by Sotheby’s International Realty | January 11, 2021
John Messina, Real Estate Associate Broker with Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty on Long Island, is quick to remind peers that being the best is about beating your own records—not necessarily everyone else’s. “It’s nice to be recognized for having the highest sales volume or most expensive sale in a particular year, but for me, the most important thing is representing your clients with the highest level of service, and always putting their interests above your own.”
What are the characteristics of a great real estate agent? “Great agents know how to respond to difficult situations and face them head-on. They run toward the challenge, not away from it, and know how to think outside the box. Most importantly, they know when to speak and when to listen, and do not expect to win every situation—choosing instead to be effective over trying to be right.”
What steps did you take to become your own personal best? “I concentrated on education and gained experience in different parts of the business. I earned the Graduate Realtor Institute and Senior Real Estate Specialist designations, which have been invaluable. I also worked many ends of the business between residential, commercial, investment, and new construction.”
