The Origin Story Behind Be Happy TC
Ever landed a job, start it and realize you enjoy just one specific aspect of the job? This is exactly what happened to the founder of Be Happy TC. After Shanda Macomber was hired by a real estate agent in an administrative position at a real estate office, she quickly realized even though the overall job was great, there was one particular part of the job she adored.
Paperwork! More specifically, real estate transaction paperwork. All kinds of paperwork filled with infinite amounts of details and specifics required by California to be filled out accurately, or the deals just weren’t going to happen on-time, or at all in some cases.
Why Transaction Coordinators Exist
Extremely detailed forms are required in order to sell or purchase a home. There’s no getting out of it, and every form must be filled out in particular ways most real estate agents don’t always have time to focus on. Real estate agents wear many hats they need to wear, and their days are long enough. Paperwork just extends the day, either they have to come in earlier than everyone else, or stay later than everyone else. If they find an issue, more often than not, the people involved aren’t around to answer questions or fix the errors until the following day during normal business hours. Time-sensitive paperwork ends up being pushed a few days, causing delays in home sales and home purchases, upsetting buyers and sellers.
It just spirals out of control, and everyone ends up frustrated and unhappy. No real estate agent wants frustrated clients, not if they want to grow their business and become a success. The answer: hiring an independent transaction coordinator for your business.
Having a dedicated and trusted person tasked with the role of real estate transaction paperwork freed up real estate agents to focus on what they do best: negotiating sales and interacting with clients. One Less Hat to Wear
The Be Happy TC Beginnings
Where did the idea for Be Happy TC come from? Owner and CEO Shanda Macomber had a great job working as an administrative assistant for a real estate agent and office. As time went by, Shanda was wearing many hats as an office administrator for a busy real estate office but yet it was the paperwork that made her feel fulfilled.
Learning the Ropes
There was no turning back once she got a taste for paperwork, and realized her passion was paperwork. There truly is a lid for every pot, isn’t there? She enjoyed the detailed work required, and the never-ending education required to successfully complete each form correctly, accurately and quickly. Plus, she thoroughly enjoyed helping clients with filling out the paperwork so their homes could be sold, and for individuals to secure their dream homes.
Breaking Out on Her Own
It didn’t take long before Shanda realized her passion for paperwork was a unique one, but that others out there enjoyed it as much as she did. If that was the case, wouldn’t it be great to start a company made up of individuals dedicated solely to real estate transaction paperwork!
Be Happy TC was founded, staff hired and trained. The result: real estate agents all over California have been happily focused on the tasks they’re good at while contracting out Be Happy TC for paperwork.
Running a Successful California Real Estate TC Company
Starting a business in California is no easy task. Finding success is even more difficult. However, Shanda knew she not only wanted to help real estate agents so they could also be successful, but she also wanted to provide a working environment that allowed her team of California TCs to learn, grow and thrive doing what they’re passionate about - PAPERWORK.
Feeding her own passion for paperwork has allowed Shanda to share her 20+ years of knowledge and experience with her own team, and provide them with the perfect place to do what they love. Success has been a natural progression, and only possible with hard work and dedication to Be Happy TC’s clients and staff.
