The Bobbi Decker Team puts their clients' needs first ... always!

The Bobbi Decker Team

Team Members:

     

In order to serve our clients most efficiently our team members help at every step of property sale or purchase. With team support we ensure continuity, accuracy and exemplary service.

Because of Bobbi's long-term career in real estate, her five-day-a-week real estate television program, her weekly newspaper column, and having taught both existing and new residential real estate agents at Anthony Schools---ensure that every detail is understood and managed to the benefit of our buyer and seller clients.

The team members Buddy Saupe (DRE #01400479) and Bobbi work directly with the clients reviewing their needs and wants, for either clients looking to purchase a new home or clients looking to sell their existing property. The team works with computer systems, target marketing programs, plus personal and industry relationships to find the best likely matches, then previews properties to help buyers find the perfect home and not waste time visiting units that do not fit their criteria. The same process is used for selling clients to validate the up-to-the-minute accurate pricing and underpin the sales strategy for their property.

The members of the team have a rich background in customer service, a desire to achieve the best possible results for our clients and genuinely care about the communities where our clients live. As examples:

  • Bobbi was a high school Bio/Chemistry teacher
  • Buddy has had a long career with small and large firms alike in high-tech marketing, sales and support.
  • And when it comes to caring, Bobbi gives a portion of each closed escrow to the charity or nonprofit of her client's choice.

Bobbi and Buddy have been trained and earned the official designation as Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES) which provides critical insights on how to help our graying population, from Baby Boomers to the elderly to successfully integrate their property needs and wants with their life management concerns.  To further support our graying community we have developed the new Living Longer Forum TV, web and seminar series which is dedicated to educating people on a variety of aging issues. Knowledge is power and we believe a well informed consumer of any age makes better choices.

As fans of the value of technology we have added a BLOG that provides topical dialog on our local real estate market issues, and interesting events and data that help to provide facts versus fiction regarding specific segments of our local markets. We also use the web search capabilities to provide clients with automatic up-to-date property information via email of properties that fit their criteria. We also manage as much of a buyer or seller's transaction as possible via email for those clients where that is the most efficient communication method.

For those clients selling their property we use a rich variety of web tools to enhance the sales effort such as:

  • Specific web sites for your property address with virtual pictorial reviews of your property
  • Web based Multiple Listing Services (MLS) that help both Realtors & prospective buyers gain some insight on your home
  • Craig's list, Enhanced Realtor.com and other search engines that help present your property to the widest possible audience.

We also deploy all the traditional marketing tools for clients selling property that are proven to stimulate interest:

  • Newspaper ads
  • "just listed" mailers to gain visibility in the community
  • Scheduled agent "Broker Tours" to help agents who may have potential clients for your property get a firsthand look to better assess the "fit" for those clients.
  • Open House Actions:
  • Advertise times and dates
  • Recommend "Detailing" actions to improve the property's appearance
  • Provide our trusted crew of craftsmen and women to execute the Detailing plan
  • Help devise and deliver indoor and outdoor staging to put the final touches that show the property at it's very best
  • Provide information that helps prospective buyers understand what the financing options are, and also provide details of the buying process for those less experienced in purchasing real estate
  • Provide insight on the value of the neighborhood and community that further enhance the value of your property.
  • Broker Tours for the local Realtors

Creating a sound "go-to-market" strategy is always part of the value of working with the Bobbi Decker Team. The key elements also include:

  • The right pricing strategy, using up-to-the minute market data and the insights that years of experience provide
  • Effective negotiating techniques
  • A deep understanding of contractual requirements that helpour clients maintain a smooth close-of-escrow process and reduce long term risks

For our buying clients we:

  • Assess your needs and wants in detail to expedite finding properties
  • Help you get pre qualified that gives us both the reality of what you can afford
  • Use web searches and personal relationships to find properties that meet your criteria
  • Do direct marketing to specific areas if need be to uncover unlisted possible properties
  • Negotiate to assure the best possible results in these areas:
  • Sales Price
  • Property condition and any related repairs
  • Closing timing
  • Inclusion or exclusion of any items on the property
  • A smooth escrow process
  • Help you with our trusted resources:
  • To facilitate your move
  • Add or change interior or exterior characteristics of the property
  • To assist wherever possible to simplify all the aspects of moving to a new home and community
