Teamwork between agents? Yes and it's a beautiful thing!

Image
I remember when I got my real estate license an experienced agent telling me, "You're an independent contractor now and you don't have to work with anyone."  I thought to myself how unappealing that was because I've always operated best in a team environment and I didn't like the idea of feeling alone while building my business.  So, I ignored them, as I usually do when someone says something I think is ridiculous, and I started working on building a team and working with good agents. This didn't go over too well with agents that felt everyone is competition and creating a team just means you'll make less money.  I knew this wasn't true and it was reinforced by my broker Ben Costanza. He's been in the business over 30 years and knows that a team is ALWAYS better.

Ben Costanza - Our Broker & Our Future

Image
Not many brokers have so much love for their community and history as Ben Costanza. I can say that with total conviction having worked for Mr. Costanza for the last few years in social media, videography and now as a proud real estate agent in his office. I'm John Henry Soto and for the last few years, I've come to learn just how much the name Ben Costanza means to this community. I'm not just talking about real estate either. Although he's brought millions of dollars to the city of Bayonne with his expertise in commercial real estate bringing us some of our most popular locations such as Walgreens, TD Bank, Dunkin Donuts and Advance auto parts, just to name a few, Ben Costanza has also served Bayonne as a councilman. As a councilman, he was on the board of school estimates and undertook the difficult task of bringing Midtown Community School to Bayonne.
