KNOWLEDGE OF HOMES PRIOR TO BEING LISTED

Your consultant needs to offer every advantage possible with your search for a new home.  Agents can’t be aware of every home prior to being listed. However, having a Top Producing consultant that is involved with many networking groups and has a stellar reputation amongst his peers, is a huge advantage.

   KNOWLEDGE OF CURRENT INVENTORY

Your consultant should be familiar with all the homes that are being shown to you, so your time is not wasted seeing homes that do not meet your buying criteria. Your consultant should also be familiar with homes that have recently sold. This will keep you more informed and your consultant can advise you accurately when you make an offer.   “Knowledge is key to negotiating.”

TEAM –SUPPORTING STAFF

Efficient consultants have a supporting staff that allows them to concentrate on the important issues with every real estate transaction.  Having a staff also ensures that you can schedule appointments based on your timing, without conflicting with a single handed agent’s personal schedule.  Additionally, a staff guarantees that you are introduced to all the new listings EVERY DAY that homes are entered into the MLS “Hot Sheet.”  Lastly, because of The Radcliffe Group’s 15 years experience in selling homes, we have accumulated an extensive list of service people for our clients to have access.

Team Analogy:  You are going to charter a boat and have a choice of two different captains. One captain has a crew of team members and the other captain works by himself, single handed, with no crew. The single handed captain may try to convince you that you will get personalized attention and only he will take care of everything. While the captain with the crew knows that if the solo captain is down below taking care of everything himself, who is steering and controlling the boat???

When given the choice, why wouldn’t you hire a Real Estate consultant with a supporting staff (Team) that can simply offer more and superior service? Simply put, a single handed agent physically cannot offer nearly the same service as an Agent with a supporting staff (Team).

A TOP PRODUCING CONSULTANT

"When you want something done, hire a busy person to do it for you." Consultants that are doing most of the business hear about homes being listed and have a higher chance of finding homes prior to being listed.  Additionally, having a Sotheby’s agent gives you the advantage of our Intranet Networking System of thousands of Real Estate agents.  Lastly, if you are in a multiple offer scenario, you want a representative that commands respect and has long term relationships with the other agents.

SPECIALIZED AREA

It is our experience that it is impossible to be completely familiar and updated with every area. That is why I personally specialize in Brentwood, Pacific Palisades & North Santa Monica with associates working in surrounding areas. So, wherever you are looking to buy, we have a specialist to professionally service you.

CONVENIENCE & TECHNOLOGY

In our fast pace lifestyle it is sometimes difficult viewing homes at a moments notice. We have the capability to immediately email you a detailed description, video tours and pictures the day a home is listed for sale. Or better yet, we can create a personal client website with your own login and password that has customized criteria to notify you the moment a home enters the open market.
