In 2009 Leading Real Estate Companies of the World members participated in almost 1/3 of all residential real estate transactions in America. Jordan Baris, Inc. is honored to be recognized by the dominant organization in real estate brokerage with this prestigious award.

GREETINGS! We are thrilled that you are reading our magazine Opportunities. The name Opportunities is appropriate given that real estate prices are at their most affordable levels in years combined with record setting low interest rates.

Our company has been extremely busy and we have recently launched two new websites from one address, www.JordanBaris.com.

Our unique web sniffer technology knows whether you are visiting us from a computer or from a smart phone and optimizes the website accordingly. You can now visit www.JordanBaris.com from wherever you are. If your phone has a GPS, you will be able to see the details of properties closest to your location incredibly fast, easy and in a fun way.

Our new traditional website is built on WORDPRESS and has the feature of blogging our listings which lead to maximum exposure and outstanding results for our clients.

At the Leading Real Estate Companies of the World速 2009 Annual Conference, we were awarded the Outstanding Client Experience Transaction of the Year Award. This was very exciting for us, especially since our network had over 1 million closed transactions last year!

Given the opportunity, we will go out of our way to provide you an award-winning experience for all of your real estate needs.

Have a happy, healthy and safe end of the summer!
