My little brother listened to my advice!

Last week my brother (who lives in Toronto) and his girlfriend told me that they were looking to move into a bigger apartment. They seemed to be getting a bit frustrated with the process. Every place they looked at was not right and they felt like they were spinning their wheels and wasting their time. I asked them if they had considered what is on their “Top 5 dealbreaker list“?

Top 5 dealbreaker list? What is that?” they both said in unison. It was then that I realized that they were for sure spinning their wheels as they had not even made a list of what they wanted in their next home. I explained the concept, and send them a link to my blog post about how to figure out your Top 5 dealbreaker list.

A week later, he texted me to tell me that not only had they figured out their list, but within 2 days of making their list, they found an amazing apartment that exceeded their expectations! Of course, I could not resist the urge to point out that big sister knew things that could be helpful!

If you are considering moving, or are struggling with finding your next home, give me a call and let’s discuss strategies for how to figure out your Top 5 dealbreaker list. I have been perfecting my craft of selling Real Estate for over 14 years now and I have methods to help you make this process as pleasant and pain free as possible.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Real Estate Market update December 2018

 

As we wind up the year, I wanted to share an update on the current local Los Angeles Real Estate market.  I have been hearing people talk about what they think is going to happen and some who have said that they think that the market will implode and crash!  

Please understand, we have not gone from a good real estate market to a bad real estate market. We have gone from an abnormal market to a normal market. The abnormal market was where there was only one month of inventory, interest rates unusually low, almost all homes on the market got multiple offers, and prices went up every month.

A normal market has a healthy amount of inventory and buyers have choices. It is more important than ever to hire an agent with skill and experience!  How can I be of service to you?
Warmly,

The best and worst customer service within 24 hours

Over the past 24 hours, I have experienced examples of the best and the worst customer service. Both companies failed in providing their services, but one excelled in making it right. Watch the video to learn more.

Get 5 years of my time for free!

Have you ever considered what your time is worth?  Did you know that when you speak to an expert for a few minutes that you are actually getting years of value.  You see, if the expert weren’t an expert, you likely would not want to spend time talking to that person about that specific subject, assuming you are looking for advice, of course.  Spending just 5 or 10 minutes speaking with someone who knows what they are doing, is actually giving you years of value. That is to say that throughout the years of experience accumulated, the person from whom you seek information, can provide sound advice quickly and that it is in fact worth many years of time.

Sometimes I come across clients who want to work with multiple agents at the same time. Most people understand that the dedication, experience and commitment that I offer them is such that if I gave it away to anyone that wanted it, I would not be able to provide the level of service that I provide to those that I am committed to (and who are committed to me). I came across this article and it so completely explains why even 5 minutes of our time is not really 5 minutes. It is a culmination of all our years of expertise so that the 5 minutes is really worth 5 or 10 years of time.

Here’s a quote from the article that describes its main thesis:

“If you desire someone’s time, you’re not desiring their current time, you’re actually desiring the value of all of their past time that went into making their current time desirable. It took them a long time to learn the things they know how to do that make you desire access to their current time.”

If you would like to discuss what is going on with the market and how we can help you, I would be happy to set up a time to talk and see how I can be of service.  Click on this link to set up an appointment directly in my calendar.

I met Kim 5 weeks ago, here is what she thinks of me…

Here is what she had to say about me…

“You were such an amazing advocate for me and my family and a true joy to work with!  I am so extremely impressed with your consistent professionalism, your willingness to jump through hoops and your creative, inventive solutions to every obstacle that we faced during the selling and purchasing process.You were ALWAYS accessible and you made me feel like I was your only client. You are extremely internet savvy and you understand how vital social networking is and how it relates to Real Estate.  The quality of your service is unsurpassed. Revi, you truly are in a league of your own! You were always there when I needed you and you went above and beyond to explain every step in the process.  What impresses me the most was your determination and grit to meet and exceed all of my needs.  I would be very happy to recommend you to any and all of my friends and family who might be looking for a Realtor.  And personally, I know that I have a friend... I can’t wait until I work with you again. A heartfelt thank you.”

Kim Tinsley, West LA Seller and Porter Ranch Buyer June 2016

 

Here is how we met…

Fellow Peachheader Kim called me about 5 weeks ago to invite me over to see her condo. She told me that she had heard about me through Peachhead and that she had been following my blog posts over the years.  It felt great to know that the information that I am putting out there is being read and appreciated by the group.  What also felt great was chatting with someone with whom I had an instant connection.

 

Kim and I met the following day, I listed her condo, and we put it on the market within 2 weeks. I helped her get her place “show ready”, suggested some changes and helped her plan out where to store her extra furniture.  She did a great job getting the place ready.  She listened to my advice on pricing, and sure enough, after 100 people came through our first open house, offers started coming in immediately.  Within the first 7 days, we negotiated the best offer and put the property into escrow.  

Now the fun begins…

While we were in escrow, Kim invited me over again and asked if I would be able to help her buy her new home.  Of course, I was honoured and I accepted.

Within about 1 week, we identified the property that Kim wanted to buy, and shortly thereafter, we won out over multiple offers.

Since I was involved in both transactions, I was able to plan out and map out Kim’s move, and additionally, through hearing her requirements, I was able to secure a very economical leaseback from the buyer of her townhome as well as plan out an escrow for her new home that fit her exact timeline.

Coordinating 2 concurrent escrows is one of my specialties and this is my third time in 2016 creating a successful plan for my clients.  Want to know more?  Or maybe you are wondering if I work in your area?  Give me a call!

I look forward to hearing from you!
