As a San Diego native, I've seen America's Finest City change in many positive ways. As a downtown resident for over 10 years now, I've participated in this positive change in many ways. Living here and investing here for this period of time has enabled me to learn which neighborhoods provide the most benefit to our buyers, not only from a living standpoint, but also from an investment standpoint.
As your buyer's agent, you can rest assured that I will do everything in my power to negotiate aggressively on your behalf. Thinking first from an investor's point of view, I will advise you as to potential upsides to this significant purchase. You will receive the benefit of my experience as an investor, from the moment we select a target home until the moment you receive the keys.
As your listing agent, you will receive the benefit of my personal attention throughout our marketing period. I speak to each buyer’s agent prior to showing your home, to determine what his or her client is looking for. Then, I will personally do the showing whenever possible, listening and responding to feedback from our potential buyer. Finally, I will follow up with the prospective buyer (or their agent) to see how our listing fit in to the others they may have seen and to gather as much feedback as possible, so that you can know exactly how the sales process is proceeding. Basic salesmanship? Yes. Sadly, this level of service is severely lacking in our industry. My commitment to you is to be the best sales person that I can possibly be...and yes, I do ask for the order!
Whether buying or selling, you will receive this personal level of service. I'm able to do this because I do not work with every potential client that comes to me. We need to have the right "fit" and to be able to work together to create a win-win transaction.
Beyond the excellent salesmanship, you can expect the best marketing systems available. Depending on your property's location and features, we'll set up your own website complete with professionally produced photos (no cell phone photos here,) compelling descriptions of your property, and virtual tours that will be syndicated across multiple real estate listing websites. If appropriate, I will conduct open houses that are designed to sell your home (and not just as a tool for me to generate new listings while the public walks through your house.)
Once we find the perfect house for you, or the perfect buyers for your home, I will negotiate all aspects of the transaction to your benefit. This negotiation goes well beyond the price. The contract terms, inspections, dates and credits all need to be worked out, all to create a win-win transaction that closes on time. All of the latest California Association of Realtor's forms will be used along with convenient electronic signature and management using DocuSign. I will keep a communication log including details on all conversations with service providers, lenders and agents for you. At the end of our transaction, all of these signed documents and logs will be provided to you on a CD ROM upon request.
Let's face it. You have a lot of choices when it comes to hiring a real estate agent to represent you. Why not choose an agent who has been there...as a successful buyer, investor and seller? Let's talk more about your needs...call Ken Hawkins 619-972-9700 or fill out the contact form and we'll respond immediately.
