What We Do

To procure a top-dollar sale, your home needs to look spectacular because buyers want a $2 discount for every dollar they think the home needs. We have professional designers compliment your existing decor in a cost-effective way to create a model-home look.

We utilize the best marketing techniques available and strive for maximum creativity. Jim was an early-adapter of real estate videography, and we've had multiple sales where the buyer never set foot in the home until closing - they bought purely based on his video presentation.

Knowing the nuances of each area will help make a buyer feel more comfortable. The more comfortable they are, the more they are willing to pay.

Chances are that Jim has seen more recent sales in person than the buyers or other agents. It’s a big advantage at crunch time when the buyer makes an offer based on lower sales – we can derail the argument with more accurate information.

We will set you up with a top agent in your new town that Donna has personally interviewed.

Jim has been around longer than most agents and we make it a point to know as many as we can. We take pride in our reputation and treat other agents with high regard so they know they can count on us when transacting.

Through the years Jim has created specific negotiating tactics to make sure there is a clear path to a top-dollar sale for every seller.

Jim is aggressive in pursuing the buyers for our listings. He cold calls, knocks doors, holds open houses every weekend, and follows up with potential buyers until they buy or die.

We know how to negotiate a win-win. These days, if the buyers don’t feel comfortable with the deal, they don't buy. It’s critical to achieve enough common ground that all parties feel they got a fair deal to just get to escrow, let alone get it to close. This hasn’t mattered the last few years because buyers just went along for the ride – but now they are far more critical about price and condition. Achieving a win-win is required to close a sale, yet many agents have never seen such a thing.

Coordinating all the details during the escrow period is critical to making sure the deal closes - it's a full-time job. Donna works tirelessly with all parties involved to ensure a successful and timely closing for you. If there is a snag, she and her 20+ years of experience finds a way to handle it and keep us progressing towards the finish line.

We regularly help locate the next home for our sellers, supply moving tips, get any junk hauled and leave the home clean for the buyers. Today’s buyers want a clean and spiffy house at closing, and because people don’t move often, they usually underestimate the time and effort involved to get out. Jim & Donna to the rescue!

We can be reached by phone easily during waking hours. When a buyer calls or texts the phone number on our signs, or a seller calls with a question, Jim is the one answering the phone. Having your agent available and on full alert means you won’t miss any opportunities to get your home sold.
