Selecting Proper Representation
When selecting a professional REALTOR® to assist you in the selling of real estate, be sure to interview the REALTOR® as if you were an employer hiring someone to run your business, because in essence that is exactly what you are doing when you put your home on the market. By choosing a professional REALTOR®, like myself, you get the experience of myself, as well as the experience of the regions fastest growing real estate company in the number of units sold. The Pennsylvania Real Estate Market had an overall decline of 8.5% in 2006, however Coldwell Banker Preferred grew in units by 7.6% for the same time period. In 2007 Coldwell Banker Preferred had an 18% gain in sales from the previous year.

The National Association of REALTORS® offers data supporting that the average agent does between 4-8 transaction sides per year. The average number of transactions for a Coldwell Banker Preferred agent is 12 transaction sides per year. I have exceeded that national average every year since I have been in business, closing 22 transaction sides in 2006.

My territory encompasses the following counties in Pennsylvania: Berks, Bucks, Carbon, Chester, Delaware, Monroe, Montgomery, and parts of Lehigh County. I am a member of both the Trend Multiple List Service, and the Pocono Mountain Multiple List Service. I hold the designation of an e-PRO REALTOR®

Why Coldwell Banker?
Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC, long noted for its online innovations in the real estate industry, was honored recently by the Nielsen Norman Group for its intranet site, available exclusively to Coldwell Banker® real estate professionals. Nielsen Norman Group included the Coldwell Banker intranet site on its list of the top 10 intranet sites in the world, joining such other noted organizations as Bank of America, Barnes & Noble, British Airways, Campbell Soup Company and IKEA North America Service.

The Coldwell Banker intranet site houses the brand’s critical news and updates, marketing materials, educational courses and other programs. Coldwell Banker overhauled its previous intranet site and unveiled the current model in May 2007. All materials are now bundled under five critical areas on the site, “Get Listings,” “Sell Listings,” “Promote,” “Manage My Business,” and “Learn,” to allow the more than 120,000 Coldwell Banker sales associates in 46 countries easier accessibility to information pertinent to them. The site also features a large array of streaming video content and personalized business trackers. Giving me the tools, such as this, to work more professionally, smarter and with the most current technological tools available, is one of the main reasons I choose to operate my business under the Coldwell Banker Preferred signage. These tools help me assist you in getting the most money for your home in the shortest time as a seller, and to help negotiate the best deal for you as a buyer.
