I have been a full-time Realtor with over ten years of experience in real estate sales, corporate leasing, relocations, real estate marketing and property management. I understand the importance of strong customer care, effective listening and communication, as well as effective marketing strategies. Today's real estate market demands that you and your property receive the attention of a full-time real estate professional that understands current buying trends, pricing, and the impact of changing technology. I am dedicated to giving my clients the highest level of professional and personalized service based upon my experience, knowledge and integrity. For the last two years I have been number one in sales in my office. This past year I made it to the top 10 in Massachusetts and in the top 100 out of 1400 agents throughout the company. I was the first agent to join William Raveis in Massachusetts, and while William Raveis is newer to this market we have been in existence for over 30 years. In being the new kid, William Raveis Real Estate realized that they would have to be more aggressive with their marketing than the competition. They also provide agents with tools that help sell real estate and hours of training to learn everything from negotiating to real estate law. More than anything else, I want my clients to be able to trust me. Relationships mean everything to me. My business is a business of relationships and people, and I believe that when you lose sight of the people involved you also lose sight of their goals. It’s of utmost importance to me that my clients’ goals be my priority. I strive to see my clients happy, to see their goals achieved, and to see them as winners. 
Selling Your Home >Open House
If your home has been on the market for a few weeks, your real estate agent may suggest an "open house." Your agent puts up signs, gives you some pointers about how to prepare your home for showing and shows up early on Sunday morning. You may be tempted to stay around, but the best advice is to leave while your home is being shown!
When sellers are present at an open house, they can hamper the sales professional's ability to cultivate interested buyers, and can even squelch a sale. What would your response be, for instance, if someone strolls into your kitchen and says, "What awful wallpaper!" If prospective buyers know that you as the owner are present, they might feel reluctant to express their objections and concerns openly and directly to your agent.
If your objective is to get your home SOLD, the best thing to do is to get out of the way and let the sales professional do the job.
