ABOUT K.C. LAM ...
K.C. Lam is not the ordinary Realtor you meet everyday. As a matter of fact, he is unconventional and different. He is an adventurer. 20 years ago when he was studying in Scotland, he even cycled around the Scottish Highlands with his backpack and camera. Later, he came to Eugene, Oregon to continue his education at Univ. of Oregon (UFO?) and transferred to Univ. of Houston. He finished his accounting degree (Bachelor of Business Administration) in 1986. He earned his CPA candidate status within 1.5 years thereafter. In 1990, after 2 years in the accounting field (as Controller of Aqua-Dyne, Inc.), he deeply felt accounting was not his career choice. Although making a mid 5 figures income at that position, and despite the economy of Houston then was at the lowest paint, he plunged into real estate. His wife and relatives all advised against the switch, especially during that kind of economic environment. Some friends even joked that he was in his mid-life crisis prematurely.
In the 1st year as a rookie, he closed 1.5 million (prorated); 2nd year, 2.7 million; 3rd year, 5.2 million; 4th year, 7.2 million; 5th year, 9.2 million; and over 10 million thereafter every year. He has been associated with ERA franchise (different offices though) for 7 years. In the last three years with ERA, he was named the #1 agent in sales volume and unit sales in Houston for 3 consecutive years and #1 agent in Texas for 2 consecutive years. In 1997 and 1998, among all franchises, Houston Business Journal named him as #8 and #7 agent in Houston in closed units. In the last five years, his record varies from 110-131 closed transactions each year.
K.C. founded HouseSold Realty in 1997, based on one business philosophy: if you place your client's interest above yours, they will take notice and refer more business to you down the road. In one word, earn your business the old fashion way; honesty, hard work and integrity. As a matter of fact, near 40% of K.C.'s business is from referral.
Below is a summary of his credentials and achievements:
1. He has been named top listing agent and top producer for more than 120 times while associated with ERA-Keenan.
2. He closed more than 10 millions in sales volume every year for the last five years straight.
3. He closed 110-131 homes each year from 1995-1999.
4. He has been named #1 ERA agent in Houston for 1994, 1995 & 1996.
5. He has been named #1 ERA agent in Texas for 1995 & 1996.
6. He was ranked by Houston Business Journal as #8 agent (in closed units) among all franchises in 1997.
7. He was ranked by Houston Business Journal as #8 agent (in closed units) among all franchises in 1998.
K.C. is from the East Asian culture (Hong Kong), which stresses discipline and hard working. He also had his university education in USA, which stress openness, honesty and marketing. Combined the strength of these two cultures has yielded many performance and consistent results as it shows in the past records. It also offers you extra exposure for your property in the Asian community.
