Q & A with Andrew Arroyo, founder of AARE

What kind of agents do you look for when you hire?

“I look for good agents with the potential to become all star agents.”

What do you mean by good agents?

"I mean agents that have been in the game, made some sales, built a book of satisfied clients and know the ropes but realize they are not achieving their full potential. A desire to be a better agent is part of what makes up a good agent.”

What do you mean by all star agents?

"Everyone knows an all star agent. Their name is mentioned frequently in conversation at caravan or in the office. An all star agent doesn't necessarily mean a high volume sales agent. It means someone who has an all star reputation in the community and is achieving their ideal lifestyle. I love taking good agents with a solid track record and exposing the true potential within them to achieve all star results. There are many high volume agents with a miserable personal life and many high volume agencies that do not have a stellar reputation with their clients or the community. Real estate sales professionals often confuse success with money or how many homes you have sold in your career. My definition of true success is happiness.”

What do consider the difference between a successful vs. an all star agent?

“First, it's not about the numbers. Success in my eyes is achieving your dreams while leaving a positive footprint in the process with all those you come in contact with. What the clients have to say about the agent's performance is usually the key indicator of an all star agent. My goal for each agent I partner with is to reveal what is truly inside of that agent, not to focus on how many deals or some sales volume number they can produce. The sales will follow when people do the right thing and treat their clients like a loving brother and sister. Agents forget that we are really just servants. We are well paid hired servants that have been appointed to help others with one of the largest investments of their life. All star agents recognize this and treats each client as a individual person with needs not a deal or transaction.”

What exactly will you do to make a good agent into an all star agent?

“Every agent is unique and therefore needs a hand tailored business plan and mentor to help guide them to their real estate dreams. Some agents need a coach. Some agents need a sales ceiling breakthrough. Other agents just need a partner that is available, reliable and has the capital to invest in their success. My job, as a rainmaker, is to take past results and multiply those results by bringing in new sales techniques or reshaping existing sales systems for that Realtor. Right now technology is a big slice of the pie that I bring to the table. There are many seasoned Realtors that are lost in the internet universe and their sales are suffering big time. Meanwhile they are slowing drifting towards a black hole of obscurity online. Unless they align themselves with a firm on the cutting edge of technology, they will find their book of business diminishing rapidly. Homeowners are smart people and expect someone appointed to buy or sell a large asset like their home to understand the technology behind marketing homes online and many agents have limited understanding of how powerful the internet truly is. My firm solves this problem by providing cutting edge technology systems to all of our agents.”

Arroyo’s Mission with AARE Realtors

The traditional broker-agent relationship has been lost in today's changing real estate market. There are many high profile listing agents that act as a broker with a glorified buyer's team but their interest is in promoting themselves not the other agents. AARE has the opposite approach which is the overall goal to shine the spotlight on the agents and make them our number one priority.

In Arroyo’s words:
“My mission as a broker is to expose the true talent within each agent and help elevate them to achieve their real estate dreams. At the same time, I help shape their character and make sure their ethics are aligned with mine. I don’t compete with my agents or cherry pick the leads. I consider the agents partners and respect them as individuals. There are so many talented Realtors struggling to find their place in this new market. Finding a hard working broker that puts his agent’s interests above his own is rare these days. I am that broker.”

Rare Real Estate Opportunity for San Diego Realtors

Are you tired of paying all the overhead and bills yourself?
Is your current company on the cutting edge of technology and social media?
Does your brokerage charge too much for monthly/yearly fees?
Does your brokerage pay for leads and hand deliver them to you for free?

These questions need careful consideration in today's real estate market. We realize that many agents are struggling right now and we believe having good leads and a strong team to work with is vital to succeed in this market. Despite the challenging market our team is growing quickly and we have more than 100 buyers and sellers that contact us monthly that we can pass on to our new agents.
