Battle with Cancer Sharpens Business Perspective

By Erik Olson

Charlie Weaver's business is written on his vehicle. He says he spends more time on the road than in his and his wife Linda's office on Allen Street in Kelso. Bill Wagner / The Daily News

Linda and Charlie Weaver started their first real estate franchise the same month they got the worst news of their lives.

It was last May, and the Kalama couple had just returned from a training seminar at the headquarters of Assist 2 Sell in Reno. Charlie had an MRI before they left to check a lump in his hip. The news was not good.

Charlie, 54, had stage 4 lung cancer, the worst kind. He needed surgery, he needed chemotherapy and he needed to prepare to fight.

The doctor told him he likely had only nine months left, but the couple didn't give up. Linda even booked a weeklong cruise in Hawaii to take place nine months later as an incentive for her husband to get better.

The nine months is up, Charlie is cancer-free, and their Assist 2 Sell franchise is open for business in Kelso.

But not this week - because the Weavers are exploring Hawaii.

"Saturday it's been nine months, and we're headed on that cruise," Linda said.

"Can't wait. Can't wait! I'm so jazzed," Charlie added, pumping his fist.

Charlie left the telecom industry after 26 years and searched for a new career. He got his real estate license in 2001, and his wife followed suit in 2004.

The cancer battle has given them a different perspective on running their business, they said. With the economy slowing nationwide, people are looking to save money, Charlie said.

The Weavers' goal is to help them do that while buying a home, even if it means less profit for them.

"We can now relate very closely to what a lot of folks are going through," Charlie said.

Charlie is quick to laugh and smile, and he said surviving cancer has made him approach each day with a sunnier attitude.

"Your criteria for having a good day goes way down," Charlie said.

Leading Assist-2-Sell Office Relocates to Knoxville, Tenn.

Husband and Wife Team Help Homeowners Save Money with Unique Full-Service Real Estate Brokerage

Assist-2-Sell franchise owners Don and Kim Rose just opened another Assist-2-Sell office after relocating to the Knoxville, Tenn., area.

Knoxville, TN, March 03, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Don and Kim Rose know a good thing when they see it. For nearly three years, this husband and wife team ran a successful Assist-2-Sell office in the Toledo, Ohio area. Last year, Don and Kim sold their franchise and relocated to east Tennessee. They didn’t abandon the Assist-2-Sell concept, though. Now that they’re settled in, Don and Kim have opened a new Assist-2-Sell office in Farragut, Tenn., to serve home sellers and homebuyers in the greater Knoxville area.

So what is it about Assist-2-Sell that continues to draw the Roses?

“Don and I worked for a 'traditionally-priced' real estate company but we grew tired of justifying our seven percent commission,” says Kim, who also serves as managing broker for the new office. “Assist-2-Sell allows us to offer the same professional services we have always offered but for a lot less money. The only difference between now and then is the savings.”

Assist-2-Sell is a full-service discount real estate company that was started in 1987 in Reno, Nev. Today, there are more than 550 franchise offices throughout the United States and Canada. Assist-2-Sell’s “Full-Service with $avings!”® program has been refined over the last 20 years and sets it apart from other real estate companies.
