Easy peasy… here’s the key-z!

By Tracey Henkels, July 21, 2021

Congratulations to Kari & Trina!!

I love referrals!! I think I’ve said that before, but it’s just so true! Every dang time.

Here’s the story, Kari and Trina found the dream-house before they found the dream-agent. We happen to have mutual friends who referred them to me and what a great match we are! They are fun, smart and know what they want. Perfection!

Here is what is so cool about referrals. When a past client or close friend refers me to someone I’ve never met, it’s far more likely that we will build trust quickly and be able to hit the ground running because the new client already expects to have an awesome experience. That was certainly the case in this situation. This was a competitive sale and we needed to hit the ground running. From the minute I met Kari and Trina I knew that we had trust and that we could do what needed to happen to get them into their dream house. And it was an awesome experience! Now they have the keys to their forever home and I hope they refer me to their friends as well.

If you or anyone you know wants to talk about buying or selling a home, I would love the opportunity to connect with them!

She/Her

Tracey Henkels attributes her disciplined nature and relentless work ethic to a childhood spent rising and retiring by the light of the sun on her family's apple orchard in Iowa. Gratefully, that Midwestern mentality has served her well over the years as Tracey continues to deliver excellent customer service, superior technical skill, and a wide array of industry knowledge on behalf of her clients. While Tracey wouldn't trade her career as a Real Estate broker for any other, her first love was Architecture. After receiving her degree at Iowa State University, Tracey worked in the architecture world for over 6 years before deciding she wanted to forge a new professional path. In 2004, Tracey jumped heart-first into the world of helping her people buy and sell houses. She's never looked back. When you meet Tracey, one of the first things you notice is her positive energy, and zest for life. One of her favorite things about being a broker is the ability to help people make powerful transitions. Tracey's natural patience, unwavering professionalism, and optimistic attitude make her both a compassionate broker and tough negotiator. Tracey is committed to serving others, making a difference in her community, and giving back. When she isn't working hard to best serve her clients, you might find her tending to her garden, growing fresh vegetables and beautiful flowers, cross country skiing, or planning her next exciting adventure.   Tracey works as a team, alongside Kelsey Burkett, Broker Licensed in OR.
