Bio
With over 20 years' experience helping people buy and sell homes, I have primarily been a listing agent for most of my career, and I also enjoy working with buyers. I have consistently been ranked in the top 1% for total production in my office, and have been in the top 25 for Keller Williams worldwide (over 200,000 agents). Every client I work with gets me. I have been very successful at getting sellers the most money possible for their properties, and on the flip side, finding and getting the best deals for my buyers. I believe you need a competent agent on your side who always has your best interest as the number 1 priority (not commission). I have also been sharing my techniques for success at my Beverly Hills office, by teaching contract and strategy classes as the director of development. I value your business, and I will do an excellent job for you as your Realtor.
When hiring a REALTOR®, I would try to find a professional that has a good reputation among their peers. It would also be important to find someone who gives back to their profession in addition to simply doing sales. In my daily business, I am mentoring agents and teaching classes at my office. I have the added knowledge and experience from the many hundreds of additional transactions I have helped other agents with. My advice to anyone looking for an agent is to go with your intuition. Do you feel the person you are interviewing is the most competent person to sell your house? Are you comfortable in trusting them with one of your most valuable assets?
I am a full-service real estate agent. Before meeting with a potential Seller, I do thorough research on the most recent sales and why each of them received the price they sold for. I also research the neighborhood schools so I can be knowledgeable when talking to a Buyer coming into my open house. I discuss my proven marketing strategies and techniques to get the most exposure for a property, which will, in turn, get the most money for a Seller. Additional services I can provide are cleaning up the property, recommending any necessary repairs, getting bids for the Seller, coordinating Estate Sales, arranging relocation or movers, and everything else needed for a successful transaction.
When talking to a Buyer, I am truly listening to what they want and educating them on what is available and the current market conditions. I assist Buyers by putting them in touch with the best lenders and making sure they are ready to jump on that deal when it comes up. I am also skillful at getting listing agents to accept my Buyer's offer - over the many competing offers we may be up against. I am aggressive, yet well mannered about going after property for my Buyer clients. Other agents want to work with me because of my reputation and the way they see me representing my clients.
