Happy New Year!  I wish each of you health and prosperity now and always...

In this week's blog, I thought I'd answer a question you may be asking.  Why do I think I am qualified to write a blog about "Real Life and Real Estate"? Well, it's a good question and I think I have a good answer 😀

My resume' is diverse to say the least.  Check out my LINKEDIN profile for complete details 😉  Meanwhile, here's the watered-down version...My experience includes everything from Managing Manicurist, Chiropractic Assistant , X-Ray Tech to Office Administrator to Marketing Manager to Director of Human Resources for a multi-million dollar company.  

My kids and I are heavily involved in the community, so that keeps me BUSY!  Therefore, a traditional 9-5 hasn't really been an option for a while now.  As ALWAYS, the good Lord blessed me with the opportunity to work and still have the flexibility to be available for my kids.  Since 2015, I have worked as the Insurance Coordinator/Patient Accounts Manager for a local Physical Therapy office.  

Although I continue to work in that field, in 2017, I made the decision to pursue a career in real estate.  I obtained my Alabama Real Estate License in January 2018.  After working temporarily with a few brokerages that were just, let's say, "not the right fit" for me, I was led to Bellator Real Estate & Development.  I can honestly say that you KNOW the difference as soon as you walk through the door!  I was able to finish out 2018 with a little over a 1/2 million dollars in closed transactions, and I have to say I was VERY proud of myself considering the mountains I climbed to get there 🎉 I'm so very thankful for the lessons and blessings!  Moving forward into 2019, and beyond, I see great things ahead.

Not sure what to do with that corner that gets no love?  Try this simple update...this inexpensive, classic wall shelf set ($14.99) can be configured to your liking. Use the set to display items such as framed photos, candles, decorative accents and more!

Welcome to Real Life & Real Estate!

Hello!

My name is Amanda Spears and I am an Alabama Real Estate Professional representing buyers and sellers in residential and commercial transactions. As a resident of Baldwin County since 2004, I have a strong connection to the community and enjoy sharing my knowledge of the area. During the week, you will find my husband and I attending school activities and athletic events with our two daughters. Most weekends, our family travels the southeast, with our horses, competing in barrel racing competitions.

I'm certainly no "blogging" expert, I can't even promise to have a consistent theme.  My goal for this blog is to share my personal and professional experiences (some totally random 😜) as I work to grow my business, based in the ultra competitive Coastal Alabama real estate market.

As I wrap up my first post, and with the "new year" just around the corner, this quote seemed fitting...You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great ~ Zig Ziglar.
