Who's The Largest Private Landowner In The U.S.?

This Month's Free Offer: Five Easy Steps To Selling Your Home After serving your neighbors 10 years, I know selling your home is a big deal. Many people just aren't clear how to start. To make it easy for you, here are 5 simple and easy steps to get your questions answered and get on the right track…
1. Call me at (732) 245-4031 We'll chat by phone a few minutes and answer all your questions. Take me for a "telephone test drive" to see if you're comfortable. If not, just tell me "don't call me, I'll call you," and I won't call you. I promise.
2. Get a free, quick, over-the-phone estimate of your home valueEven if you follow nearby sales, it's hard to know the value of YOUR home, so let's get that handled. (If you want a more accurate figure, just invite me over to see your home.)
3. Get a list of easy, fix-ups for your home I know simple things to increase your home value…
4. Free sit-down consultation & game planGet the details on how I sell so many homes for clients. Let's figure out your timing and a step-by-step game plan for selling and possibly buying another home. Know I'll always "give it to you straight": no empty promises or flattering you with a high price you won't get. Good, honest advice.
5. Take the plunge, but with a life-preserverPerhaps we'll decide to work together. Signing a listing contract is a big decision, so let's take the pressure off. You'll have the right, in writing, to cancel our agreement for any reason.
If this makes sense and you like my approach, let's talk… Call me at (732) 245-4031. I look forward to your call!
