WE BELIEVE IN CELEBRATING WELL
The idea of having fun while we work and constantly adding value to a clients experience should be played out in how we celebrate with our clients.
We want to make their entire experience with 6th Ave Homes a fun one and something they will not forget. That is why we want to send them fun gifts along the way and have a big celebration at closing.

At the Meet Up, make sure to pick up the tab for coffee, lunch, drinks, etc.

6TH AVE HOMES CLOSING TRADITIONS
Give the client a 6th Ave Homes Gift Box at the actual closing. The gift box can include a number of items, but we always want to have something to toast with in it. We recommend local TX Whiskey, but tequila, champagne, sparkling juice (non alcoholic) are also good gifts.
Always include a handwritten thank you note.
Do a toast at the end of signing.
Ask your clients if you can pray for them and for their house.
