I noticed today that your current home listing in Fair Oaks has recently expired. My goal
is to tell you about Placer Hills Real Estate and myself. We can offer you attention and
services that are unmached by other real estate companies.
The service and experience I can offer you when helping you with you’re selling needs is
unmatched. Working together with you, I am confident that we can analyze your present
and future goals and help you obtain them. If you are curius as to the type of activity that
has been occuring in your area or you would like to discuss your needs and goals, I would
be more than happy to come by and talk with you.
A lot of detail and thought was put into your home. Your home have many unique features
and upgrades making it an excellent value among homes currently on the market in this
price range. I am also a Whitney Hills resident, and I primarily work in this area with buyers
and sellers. As a matter of fact, I have shown your beautiful home to potential buyers.
Gaining your trust and confedence for the building of a solid relationship for the future is
my number one priority. Feel free to call me to set up an appointment if you would like a
unique perspective for marketing your home from someone with thorogh knowledge and
experience with homes in your neighborhood. I look forward to talking with you soon.
