Do You Ever Have A Bad Day?



We all experience rough patches from time to time. Life doesn't always go as planned, and we can't help but feel a little down in such moments. However, just when we least expect it, something comes along that brightens our day.


I recently had the privilege of working with a client for over a year, helping them with the intricate process of liquidating their family assets. Throughout this journey, we encountered numerous ups and downs, along with unexpected twists and turns. But in the end, all the hard work paid off, and the client was overjoyed with the outcome.


In the wake of this success, I received a heartfelt email from the client, which I'd like to share a snippet of with all of you:


Your Father's Day email was perfect!  I hope you had a wonderful Father's Day and are enjoying this beautiful spring. 

 I hope business is going very well for you. You are a blessing to any family farm that needs top-notch realtor/auction services from a realtor with incredible integrity. We can't thank you again for all your help.


If possible, try not to let life's challenges and negative influences get you down. Remember, there's always someone out there willing to offer a kind word and a helping hand, and these gestures are incredibly meaningful.


So, during those tough days when everything seems to go wrong, hold onto hope. Tomorrow will always bring a fresh opportunity, and someone special will come along to make your day brighter.


Remember, in the face of adversity, there is hope, and there are people who genuinely care and are willing to lift us up when we need it most. Let's cherish those moments of kindness and remember that a brighter day is just around the corner.


All the best to you, 

Brad Neihouser

A Listening Ear.

  Compassion is a helpful quality in many professions; however, when you think about commercial real estate, compassion may not come to mind.  Let me tell you a story. I was recently asked to visit with a potential seller to discuss a property they were considering putting on the market. Prior to our meeting, I had been briefed on the situation, did some preliminary research, and felt confident I would get the listing and make the sale. When I arrived, the prospect had a different idea. She had just lost her husband, who, according to her, was the face of the business. The conversation centered mostly around the man her husband was, what he meant to her, how much she missed him, and everything he had poured into their business. This woman was looking for a friendly ear, so I listened. How could I not? Towards the end of our visit, we did transition to why I was there and got down to the business of it all. I left with the hope that I was able to provide her with good, dependabl

A Commercial Building Sale from Soup to Nuts

  Selling a commercial building is not something that is done spur of the moment. There are only a few reasons why an owner would choose to sell a valuable commercial building. #1 Retirement. The owner retired and sold their business and no longer needs the building. #2 Expansion. The owner may have outgrown the building and is purchasing another building. There is an immense about of thought and tax planning that goes into selling an established commercial building. But, once the decision is made to sell, the owner selects a commercial broker to handle the marketing and sale of the property. The next step is to d etermine the asking price with your broker. This is where it gets really interesting… The asking price is crucial for attracting potential buyers. Some brokers may suggest a pie-in-the-sky value just so they can secure the listing (A horrible idea ). However, a more prudent approach is to price the property approximately 15% above the market value to maximize the return. Th

Prospecting: The Thoughtful Way

Prospecting: The Thoughtful Way In any kind of sales, especially commercial real estate, you will most likely need to do some kind of prospecting for new clients. An old mentor of mine once said that new business doesn’t just walk in the door all the time, and wow, is that true. When you think of prospecting, the first thing to come to mind is probably the dreaded “cold call”. Everyone knows what I’m talking about, whether you’ve received them or done them yourself. The pitch for the latest service, investment, or product always seems to be the same and generally ends the same as well, without commitment. Instead of blind, cold prospecting, what about taking the time to research potential clients, obtain a base level understanding of their property, and make a “warm call”? What would that look like? Try sending an introductory letter or other mailed version of outreach. Perhaps include a photo or map of their property, including comparable sales, other current listings, and/o
