The deal will not wait for you.

Many elements of the selling process are in fact time sensitive.
Her home was on a pretty busy corner and my marketing strategy was to have flyers out and have an open house every Sunday until it sold. We sold the home to a buyer who had a realtor who had told him he could have a discount if he went and looked at homes by himself and found one. The only way he looked was at open houses. If we had not had an open house for 3 weekends we could have missed this buyer. Of course, different homes require different marketing strategies but, because of the busy corner I knew I could get the most people in the home by having it open for them.



Inside the loop, townhomes, single and multifamily properties, whatever your needs, we will find the answer.

The 5 keys to selling your home:

1. Responsiveness: When a buyer calls to ask about a house or wants to see it, give them immediate service if possible. They won’t buy it if they can’t see it or can’t get information on it. They may not call back a second time.
2. Easy access: Make sure the locks on the house are easy to operate and all keys work. It Sounds simple but, first impressions matter. If you can’t even open the door… What else is wrong with the house?
3. Negotiate: every contract no matter how ridiculous the offer. I once had a low ball offer on a duplex that was $90,000 off the price we countered with the price we wanted and they accepted.
4. Presentation:The listing needs good pictures, a good honest description. When you list with us your home is listed on multiple websites

5. Cleanliness.House needs to be as clean and as neat as possible.

Born on Maui, I've lived in Texas since the age of seven and grew up in the area now known as Meadows Place,TX. After graduating from high school in Sugar Land, I headed to the Texas Hill Country for my university education. I moved back to Houston after living and working several years in Austin (a city forever in my heart).
