One of the most common complaints we hear from sellers who have worked with other real estate agents is that once the agent puts the 'For Sale' sign in the yard, the sellers don't know what ' if anything ' is being done to sell their home. Has anyone shown interest? Have buyers even driven by? What sort of feedback are prospective buyers giving after they've had a showing? Questions, questions and more questions ' often unanswered! As the weeks drag on, home sellers grow more frustrated.
Because your move matters, the Byrnes Team knows it is our job to not only list your house for sale ' but to also work diligently to expose your home to the greatest number of qualified potential buyers possible until your home is sold. We know it is our job to keep you fully informed about the process, the progress and time-frames involved in the sale of your house.

'I had to sell my home for top dollar'' Betty urged me to spend about $5000 on home improvements ' fresh paint inside and out, new carpeting and a few minor repairs ' before we put my house on the market. We listed my house for top dollar and 'hung in there' until the right buyer made a full-price offer. Richard

'Sold for full asking price ' and not one open house' When we first met with Betty, we were concerned that she'd be taking over our home every weekend for open houses and that agents would show up at our door with prospective buyers with no notice. We were dreading the whole process! Betty appreciated our concerns and advised us on how her services were different from a traditional real estate sale agent's. We discussed showing instructions and marketing strategies that she knew could bring results without having open houses. And she delivered in just 28 days! Jane and Kevin

'Betty helped saved our sanity and perhaps our marriage!' With a growing family, we wanted to move into a larger home; but we thought the only way we could afford it was if Marty worked a second job. What we didn't know was how much the value of our home had increased. Betty was able to get us a full-price offer on our home and help us move into a larger home, still within our budget ' and without Marty taking a second job. Jill and Marty
