Cathy Roselli<\/a> how she defines success after nearly three decades at the top of her game.<\/p>\nBorn into a small \u2018not on the map\u2019 South Island West Coast community, Cathy says the way she was raised is to thank for the tireless work ethic and integrity she\u2019s known for today.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy parents were very giving and community-focused. They taught my brothers and sisters and I to be mindful of who we are and not to measure success by how much money you make. That can often feel at odds with today\u2019s world and nowhere is that more apparent than amongst real estate sales people.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur success often appears to be defined by the value of the properties we\u2019ve sold. You\u2019ll often hear \u2018I\u2019ve sold $30 million worth of property in six months\u2019 or whatever other metric deemed the yard stick by which to measure performance.\u201d<\/p>\n
Naturally, it begs the question: why did a woman who started out as a teacher, then transition into share broking before settling on real estate?<\/p>\n
\u201cI love helping people through times of change and helping them to reach their goals.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt wouldn\u2019t be hard to follow that old pattern of behaviour and advertise the financial value behind what I\u2019ve achieved but is a monetary sum how you judge a sales person\u2019s performance?<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are salespeople I know around the country who are routinely some of the best performers. But because they\u2019re not selling properties in the upper echelons of the market their financial totals aren\u2019t as high as others. Does that make them less successful?\u201d<\/p>\n
Speak to any of the clients Cathy\u2019s helped to buy or sell a home and they\u2019ll confirm she\u2019s not about the transaction, she\u2019s about the relationship. Cathy\u2019s sold houses of all shapes and sizes from townhouses to mansions, earning her the title of \u2018the people\u2019s real estate woman of choice\u2019.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor me, naturally the end result is imperative. But I think it\u2019s important to make it a good experience for buyer and seller along the way.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s a real focus for us at Ray White and that comes from our chairman Brian White who\u2019s been able to grow his grandfather\u2019s business while maintaining the family values it was built upon. He\u2019s never lost sight of what\u2019s important or that sense of community.\u201d<\/p>\n
