SERVICES FOR MY SELLERS

Every Seller deserves a Marketing Plan that is both extensive and effective. That's why I tailor each plan to the home I am marketing. Listed below are few elements included in all of m Marketing Plans:
• Everyone uses the Multiple Listing service. But I find it is so important to pay attention to the details. If the home does not make it to the "show List", the plan falls short.
• Photography is everything in today's market. Buyers want to see pictures. The National Association of Realtors has found that a well executed photo layout can increase showings by over 300%!
• Fewer than 10% of all listing on Realtor.com are SHOWCASE LISTINGS. I believe your home deserves to be among that elite group. It increases visibility and exposure of your home is the name of the game.
• Buyers have moved online. I take the time to distribute property information to over 350 websites. If a buyer is looking for a home similar to yours, I want to be sure yours is considered.
• Being on the Internet is not enough! You must have a way to respond quickly to inquires. Our proprietary HomeBase InTouch system connects me to online buyers within seconds of their inquiry. Without my HomeBase InTouch system, it would be like running an ad, and not answering the phone.
• I make sure all of my listings are featured in the View Magazine. The View is distributed throughout Arizona, and the online version has a very broad reach including distribution to buyers throughout Southern California. That's powerful!
• Networking has been found to be among the top reasons homes sell. That's why I spend much of my time holding Open Houses and networking with other Realtors. This is not a profession for the part timers.
• The number 2 search engine on the internet today is You Tube. I feature all my listings at ON LOCATION, the most visited real estate channel on You Tube today.
• For a detailed Marketing Plan on your home, please call me at any time.

WHAT I DO FOR MY BUYERS
I strive to ensure your experience is a positive one – an experience with integrity, service and commitment to your satisfaction.
• I pride myself in the knowledge of the Phoenix/Scottsdale market and the surrounding areas. I believe Buyers deserve a full time professional Realtor.
• I continuously preview homes to know the available inventory. This allows me to find the best properties for you in the least amount of time.
• I know the market! I have lived in Arizona all my life.. in the northeast Phoenix/Scottsdale area for the past 20+ years. I can share this insight with my buyers.
• I am affiliated with the Coldwell Banker office located near Scottsdale Rd at the Loop 101. This is a popular area of northeast Phoenix metro.
• Details are important. I will keep you informed of every detail of the transaction.
• I listen to you. I will show only properties that meet your needs and criteria as you have described to me.
• This business is constantly changing. Though I've been in business a long time, I am always looking to improve myself and learn new ways to improve your buyerin experience.
