A long time ago, Bob Beyer figured out how succeed in real estate; take care of your clients, and they will take care of you.

Bob began his real estate career in 1989 after selling a refrigeration and air conditioning business. He climbed on board with Independent Brokers Realty in 1991 after he earned his broker’s license. IBR afforded Bob the flexibility to negotiate fees with clients and place their needs above the dictates of corporate policy.

When you talk about real estate with Bob, terms like “fun business” and “enjoy people” pop up. His buoyant spirit and affable demeanor infect his clients, and cements a loyal, lasting bond. Almost all of Bob’s clients are referrals or repeat customers. Recently, he put together a transaction for a family that had already completed a dozen real estate sales with him in the past. If you combine a large number of satisfied customers with good word-of-mouth, good post-sale follow-up service, and thoughtful habits like remembering client birthdays, you have the kind of successful business model that Bob has created. After many years in the business, he reaps the benefits of a dynamic, growing, referral database. Bob doesn’t have to promote his services; his past clients do it all for him. He still gets calls and referrals from folks he helped out as far back as fifteen years ago. Having lived in Richfield since 1966, he has a strong sphere of influence within his neighborhood as well.

What kind of advice does Bob offer to young real estate agents who are just starting out? “Get your CRS!” he says. The CRS designation has been an invaluable source of referrals from other agents across the country. He gets buyers from California, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, and all over the country. The CRS designation is widely recognized as a symbol of professional competency. According to Bob, the CRS training is “top-notch.” The fact that you can take classes in Hawaii and get a tax write-off for the trip is not all bad either!

If you want seasoned, professional expertise and red carpet service, give Bob a call at (612) 869 7379. Even if you aren’t ready to make a move yet, Bob would enjoy talking to you!
