The last couple months we have been working hard to improve service and we discovered we needed an extra pair of hands, or six!
This month we have brought on a seasoned agent to the team (more on her later), a new Executive Assistant and we are working on a new director of sales! What does this means to you? In the current real estate climate when a property hits the market it is an all hands on deck, get to the property, write the contract and submit as soon as possible. With the systems we are building at LCL we will ensure your real estate needs will be met with the care and urgency they deserve.
We have seen an uptick of listings hitting the market. As interest rates trend up this means when we bring listings to the market we need them to be in the best condition possible. The extra pair of hands gives us the ability to give each seller the attention to detail needed to compete in this ever changing market.
The last two listings we brought to market took 3 weeks and 4 months, respectively, of preparation to properly present. Both sold in 2 days. The first received over 22 offers in the first 36 hours! 😲

In today's internet age it is very simple. When looking to hire a Realtor make sure you interview several either over the phone or via Zoom and ask what kind of services they offer. Are they going to make selling your property long distance easy for you?
We live in a Second Home market and understand absentee owners and all the stress that ensues when you need something done on your property and can't physically be there. We also own vacation homes in other states so we get it! You need someone to take care of everything.
A Luxury Coastal Living Group we offer full Concierge Service to help get your property ready for market and sold without you even being here.
