We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Sheryl Cury a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Sheryl, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Can you open up about a risk you’ve taken – what it was like taking that risk, why you took the risk and how it turned out?

Right in the middle of the pandemic where people were scared to be in the proximity of other people or their house. It was a challenge for me to convince clients that it was safe to do so with the proper safety measures. During that time I was pregnant and my husband felt it was a higher risk and didn’t want me to be exposed. Another challenge was that those tenant and owners occupied properties was only providing limit access to see those properties. I decided nothing was going to stop me and I was making sure I was safe. I was available when other agents were not. So I was able to take advantage of lower competitors out on the street. And got the best of the bad situation and I ended up having the best selling volume of my young career.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

I was broke and people said real estate was easy. And then I learned how challenging real estate really was and how it required hard work all day long.

So it was not why I chose this career but why I stayed. I realized that there is no income cap since you can make as much as the hard work you put into it. I noticed every day is a new adventure and every client brings new challenges.

But the main reason, what really made me fall in love with real estate has been that I love working with people and seeing the satisfaction in clients’ faces when I help them to accomplish one of their biggest dreams in their lives, makes my day. More importantly, I even enjoy navigating through my client’s daily struggles and helping them find the right solutions.

Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?

In every transaction you get the chance to interact with different persons (title company, inspector, appraiser, agents) I was always putting myself in their position to help them better so we could always accomplish the mission of getting the property sold.I got a lot of good feedback of being cooperative, comprehensive and always available and willing to help and I also I was always putting my clients interest first than anything that helped me to create a relationship with them.

What’s worked well for you in terms of a source for new clients?

networking events, referrals and open houses
