APPROACH: My approach is very simple! I answer my phone, do exactly what I say, and treat every transaction as if it were my own! Working with a sense of urgency is what makes a difference in this market and fighting for every penny is what I do for every client! I'm passionate about my career and at the end of the day you either get it done or you don't… nothing in between really matters! I am a guy that is serious about my business and simply gets it done! I believe that if I put my client's best interest first instead of the best way to get a commission my clients will acknowledge and respect that. My goal is to build a mutually beneficial relationship with my clients. Where the client reaches their goal of finding the perfect home and I earn an honest living that supports my family. I tell the Brokers on my team that if you take care of your clients…then your clients will take care of you! I'm a believer in the thought that whatever you put out into the world, comes back tenfold. My name is very valuable to me! My father always told me, "if you don't have your name then you don't have anything." Although he has been gone for 18 years I still work hard every day to honor our name in everything I do! BACKGROUND I have been buying & selling real estate since 2005. Even before I entered into the real estate business I have always been fascinated with the ins and outs of all real estate. Growing up I learned how to remodel & later build homes. Just before I made my career switch into real estate I had already taken part in building several homes. I was a construction project manager helping assist in commercial real estate development, negating, and bidding construction projects. I am now a co-owner of a growing real estate office, b l u . i n k Real Estate. Less than 2 years ago we opened the doors with just 12 agents. Now I'm proud to say we have over 50 real estate brokers and employees combined. In addition, I am also an active real estate investor and property flipper. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I am a Northwest Washington boy. I grew up enjoying many of the outdoor activities that the Northwest has to offer. I enjoy spending time with my family. Family is my life & is the reason I work as hard as I do. I try to make my daughter proud in everything that I do! Outside of business most of my time is spent with family vacationing, reading, and riding just about anything on two wheels. We love to live a simple and good life! Thank you for considering me to help you and your family. I'm as down to earth as they come so please don't hesitate to contact me with any real estate related questions. You'll be happy you did! Respectfully, Chris Erdmann, CEO Owner/Managing Broker b l u . i n k Real Estate
