More Than Real Estate
Real Stories From a Lifetime in Real Estate
Everyday People grew out of John Grieder's many years in the real estate business and the people and experiences he encountered along the way. As a real estate agent, broker and instructor, John saw the business from more than one side. He worked with buyers and sellers, trained new agents, dealt with fellow real estate professionals and experienced firsthand what happens behind the listings, showings, negotiations and closing tables.
But the real estate was only part of the story.
Over the years, John met an unforgettable collection of clients, agents, brokers, managers, office personnel and other personalities. Some situations were funny. Others were surprising, frustrating or inspiring. Together, those experiences revealed a side of the real estate world that most people never get to see.
Everyday People: Stories from the Real Estate World brings those experiences together in a collection of real-life stories told from the perspective of someone who spent years in the business. Readers who have worked in real estate may recognize some familiar situations and personalities. Those considering a real estate career can get a glimpse of the human side of the profession. And you don't have to know anything about real estate to enjoy a good story about interesting people and the situations they create.
Because behind every property, every transaction and every SOLD sign, there are people—and people always have a story.
