HALEY SPENCER
After I was married in 2014, we moved to St. Louis. I was new to the area and was working a few different jobs. I hadn’t found my place yet and was really searching for an industry I would be able to make my own, as well as make a name for myself. So, in 2016, I got my real estate license. I was brought to Realty Executives by a friend who was already in the industry. I was excited to get to work and start building relationships with potential clients. I earned my degree in hospitality management from Southeast Missouri State and was raised with volunteering in my blood, so I knew this was the foundation I was going use to build my real estate career.
The team at Realty Executives took me under their wing and gave me the guidance I was lacking. They provided me with the best real estate resources available to truly grow my business. There are so many wonderful things about Realty Executives of St. Louis that I love. They are a wealth of real estate knowledge, and always available and eager to help. They are constantly providing us with the resources to not only grow the company brand, but also my personal brand. At our office, we are set up with a library full of marketing tools, as well as an on-site videographer at no additional expense. It’s just all part of the top-notch service they offer.
Basically, if I can dream it, my brokerage will come up with a way to help me make it happen. Unlike other brokerages, Realty Executives has always been big on developing relationships and molding those into friendships. It’s all about the people liking, knowing, and trusting in you and your skills as a real estate agent.
I have been beyond blessed that the Haley Spencer Team has grown exponentially since I got in the business. In 2019, I managed to talk my sister, Brooke Heuring, into getting her license and to join my team. When COVID hit in 2020, it really rocked the real estate market. Nobody knew the path forward or how long the pandemic would last. I wouldn’t have made it without my sister. We have always worked together, and we are so very lucky to continue that family bond. We truly know and understand how each of us works and what our strengths and weaknesses are. She can take ideas and run with them without any guidance from me. This is very much present on all our social media platforms since she took them over. She is a great addition to the team, and I cannot wait to see how our marketing and social media continues to grow.
I think the biggest reason our business has grown is because we are heavily involved in the community and people are getting to meet us in environments outside of real estate. In my opinion, it is much easier for someone to trust you when they know there are no strings attached. There is less pressure, and you can have conversations to really get to know people. When people start to trust you, the real estate conversations seem to easily flow because it gives others the opportunity to bring it up without it being forced.
