You have over 12,000 options to list your property.
I know the odds aren’t in my favor.
Going into 2024
The real estate landscape of 2023 has evolved, and it’s critical to understand what this means for you as a seller. While we’re still navigating a seller’s market in Tampa Bay, the dynamics HAVE absolutely shifted. Buyers are now stepping up with more demands, from price reductions to repair requests. In such a market, partnering with a skilled agent who goes beyond the basics of listing on MLS is more important than ever.
Meet Me
I’m dedicated to providing property owners and investors with a selling experience that’s not just successful but also efficient and stress-free. I’ve been in Tampa real estate since 2013. I’ve been with several property management companies, managed, leased, and sold regular and rental properties. I’ve seen some crazy stuff… I’ve walked in on numerous squatters (one in his whitey tighties), there was once a cult sacrificing a goat in a rental property🤯, or finding a brand new construction home absolutely trashed after only 1 year of tenants. I have a full spectrum of experience from purchasing, to selling, to listing a rental to moving out a tenant. I don’t know everything, but I continue to strive for new things to learn in my market. A little more about me..
I am happily married with 2 kids and a German shepherd named Blue (Tampa is a huge on dogs by the way). I live in Lutz and enjoy gardening with new and rare tropical fruit trees, playing with the kids and eating the fruits of our labor, and, the cliche, going to the gym.
Let’s talk about the three pillars that define my approach to selling your property though.
Speed in Execution
Time is a precious commodity in real estate. I move fast, from pre-listing preparations to coordinating showings and providing timely updates. In a world where responses are often delayed, I stand out by ensuring that your selling process moves forward without unnecessary pauses. I don’t have a team slowing me down.
Transparent Communication
Clear and constant communication is my promise to you. I keep you in the loop at every stage, guiding you through the selling process and preemptively addressing potential hurdles such as inspections, title searches, and appraisals. My goal is to keep you informed, not stressed. Remember, I’m your dedicated point of contact. While teams can be very effective and efficient, they can also drop the ball with more hands in the kitchen and you may get passed off to an assistant when you go pending.
Emotional Intelligence
You may be thinking that this is a weird one. It’s not. Too many people are rude, impatient, don’t listen, and can’t comprehend the other sides perspective because they’re selfish. When you deal with another side that has these traits, you’ll be happy your agent isn’t bent or broken by irrational behavior, but can still navigate a win-win for everyone.
Selling your property is more than a transaction; it’s a road that can be filled with emotions, and it’s the same for the other side. Drawing inspiration from experts like Chris Voss (ex-FBI hostage negotiator), I bring a level of emotional intelligence to negotiations that helps us arrive to not only a win for you, but one that both parties are excited about.
Marketing Your Property
In today’s market, visibility really is key. While any realtor can list your property on the MLS, I focus on what really makes a difference: strategic marketing. Drone photography, professional video tours, and a strong social media presence are not just add-ons; they’re essentials. These tools bring your property to life for out-of-state buyers and those with challenging schedules, and provides clarity and engagement that photos alone just can’t match.
If you’re considering a 1031 exchange or looking to divest from tenant-occupied properties, my experience aligns with your needs. I understand the nuances of working with property managers, tenants, and the delicate legal processes that are sometimes involved.
