Buyers for your home
Our marketing is designed to attract
buyers from many different sources! We attract buyers for your home from many
different sources... local Realtor broker's tour and MLS, neighbors,
public open houses, direct mail, referrals from our clients, our
extraordinary internet marketing, and even referrals from other Realtors!
We work hard to make sure every potential buyer knows about your
home... not just buyers working with agents in our own company. We're proudest that so many of our clients
have been delighted with our services and they refer us lots of
other people.
Our Superb Online Visibility Attracts Buyers
You probably saw your home for the first time at an open house. These days, the first viewing is online. Google shows BerkeleyHomes.com, our personal web site, in the first five of over 50 million results for Berkeley Real Estate When buyers search for homes, they find our web site and your home on it.
We create a superb photo portfolio for you because it’s essential to getting more buyers to see your home in person. Our marketing is designed to get our sellers multiple offers ... that’s how we sell all our listings for the highest possible price.
We've represented numerous international buyers. Berkeley is particularly attractive to buyers from China because we have great shools, good air quality, safe food, and the west coast is closest to China.
We see buyers relocating here from all over the country.
Other Realtors, even those in our market area,
often refer their clients to us. In fact, Carol and I have received
the award for "Most Number of Completed Realtor to Realtor
Referrals" from for 8 consecutive years! Our Realtor networking is quite comprehensive...
