Typically heavy on the sell-side but, the past two years have been heavy on the buy-side. I enjoy the best of both worlds - it helps me represent my sellers better when I hear what buyers have to say as they tour homes; representing sellers, benefits my buyers as well.

Hmm, my sellers have to sleep somewhere.

My focus is sellers.

Am I happy with the results?  I am satisfied knowing the conditions under which agents must work. I am unhappy that so little is being done or even discussed to allow agents to be the agents of change instead of causalities.

Some years I have done nothing but listings other years I have a mix of both. My focus is on listing yet I do work with buyers - past clients, referrals, etc. however I do not seek buyers out. As my market changes that may change as well.

The cycle between the two fluctuates naturally. Have a lot of listings and the Buyers will be knocking. Buyers occupying the majority of your time then the Sellers will seek you out.  The ebb & flow of real estate!

Peter, I've worked as a buyer-broker for a long time, but for some reason, people came out of the woodwork in 2018 to ask me to list their homes. That has continued into 2019. Now, I'm about 50/50.

Since all my investors are buyers I could say buyer based but since I also deal directly with builders it could be stated the other way. Regardless for 29 years I have worked for the transaction.
