RE/MAX Executive Realty has been the dominant Real Estate company serving Hopkinton Massachusetts and other Metrowest communities over the last decade. In fact, year after year RE/MAX Executive Realty leads the real estate market in Hopkinton for the category of listed and sold homes. In real estate the goal is to always sell your own listings. The sellers, after all are your clients and have paid you well to perform.

 One of the many reasons why RE/MAX Executive Realty lists and sells more homes than any other agency in Hopkinton MA is because of the lines of communication. The lines of communication work different at RE/MAX. When a consumer inquires about your home they ALWAYS speak with the listing agent i.e the person YOU hired to sell your home! Doesn't that make the most business sense? Of course it does but yet almost all the other real estate companies that service real estate in Hopkinton MA do not work that way.

These traditional companies have what is referred to as "office time". During office time an agent mans the phone waiting for calls to come in for the homes that the company has listed. When a consumer calls unless they specifically ask for the listing agent, they have to speak with the "on duty" agent. The "on duty" agent is not the listing agent. There are many reason why this system is not ideal.

The on duty agent may not have seen the house ~ It is difficult to represent a property well when you have not seen it. If you are flipping through papers to answer a consumers questions, you are less apt to convert that call to a client. Consumers want information quick! A savvy consumer can tell when an agent does not know their stuff. Many calls do not get converted to clients because of the agents skill level.

Top agents rarely man the phones ~ The agents that typically become the office secretary are the new agents, part time agents, and agents that don't do much business. Can you picture a top producer manning the phones waiting to get a new client this way? I didn't think so!

What if the agent manning the phone has a competing listing? Many years ago when I started in the business I worked for a traditional company. There were many occasions when I would over hear the "on duty" agent try to steer the buyer to one of their listings. The RE/MAX system is designed for the listing agent to take ALL calls on your property.

One of the other big differences in how a RE/MAX company works is that each agent is empowered to make all their own marketing decisions. RE/MAX agents are responsible for their own overhead. In traditional companies the owner or office manager is responsible. The agent has no say in when, where, and how much a property gets marketed. At RE/MAX the individual agent you hire is in control and does what is best for that particular property.

I recently wrote a few articles that talk about how real estate marketing has changed with the dominance of the Internet. Over 85% of all buyers today find their home on-line. The article Metrowest MA ~ How to effectively market to the masses on-line explains the various sites I use to market all the homes I am selling in and around Hopkinton MA. In a down market selecting the right agent is paramount to your success. If you are selling your home in Hopkinton MA it makes sense to interview a top Realtor. We are no longer in a seller's market, the agent your hire to sell your home is very important!
