Barry Newman Joins HouseHunt.com Hall of Fame

On the blog this week, I want to spend some time highlighting our HouseHunt agents who've earned their way into our HouseHunt.com Hall of Fame, beginning with Barry Newman, a top-producing Realtor for Century 21 M.B. in suburban Chicago. He is one of 24 member-agents named this year and joins an elite group of 59 member-agents to be honored since the the HouseHunt.com Hall of Fame began in 1995.

It takes a special member-agent to handle the needs of buyers originating from the Internet and Barry has certainly demonstrated his expertise in this category. This recognition also validates the HouseHunt business model by promoting one individual agent as the real estate expert in their community. Plus, it proves that business can be generated in any market.

The production achievements of Barry and members of his elite group are even more remarkable when you consider that much of the nation is still in the throes of the worst housing market recession in three decades. Their focus is on their ability to deliver superior customer service. I congratulate each and every one of them.

To qualify for Hall of Fame consideration, Newman had to close a minimum of $17 million in sales and/or a minimum of 100 transaction sides in HouseHunt-related business generated solely from his exclusive HouseHunt territories.

Newman, the exclusive HouseHunt member-agent for the communities of Deerfield, Glenview, Highland Park, Northbrook and Northfield, IL, credits the HouseHunt marketing system and consumer-related programs that enables him to respond quickly and meaningfully to the needs of his customers.

“Success in my business is also based on providing great service and maintaining effective, personal communication with my customers. I’ve found that it’s better to be in front of them than rather than relying on e-mail,” he emphasized.

Since 1995, HouseHunt has been a successful consumer-oriented Internet firm that provides valuable free services and information to homeowners, home buyers and home sellers through nearly 1,500 member-agents serving exclusive territories through its primary websites, HouseHunt.com and move-up.com.
