M EET J AMES S A NDER S The most important decision you can make when buying or selling a home is to find the right REALTOR®. You need someone with experience and someone who is dedicated to looking out for YOUR best interests. James Sanders grew up in real estate on the Palos Verdes Peninsula. He learned at an early age that an inner drive to work hard produced its own results. First he became a stand-out in individual and team sports. He applied that same drive and determination to his education (USC, Real Estate Finance), and then to business, achieving the prestigious “President’s Award” in his first year of real estate, for outstanding production. James continues to exceed and remains in the top 1% of all Realtors nationwide! His momentum has never slowed down. He developed a powerful system approach to marketing. All of the elements combined ensure his clients will receive the best price for their home. “It’s a combination of a good marketing system, dedication, and hard work...while keeping an eye open for new and innovative techniques...in today’s market,” James explains. James is committed to personal service, where his bottom line is results. He does not rest until every detail of your transaction is handled. His genuine commitment to client satisfaction is evidenced by his long lasting relationships with his clients, with over 90% of his business coming from referrals. • James earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Real Estate Finance from the University of Southern California. • James began his real estate career in 1989 with RE/MAX Palos Verdes Realty, selling property in the South Bay and Greater Los Angeles. He obtained his Broker’s license in 2001 and took a Broker/Owner position along Sandra Sanders’ side. • James’ vision of a full service real estate company and his unfaltering motivation and determination have contributed to the success of RE/MAX Estate Properties. • James continuously looks to the future to give agents cutting edge tools, technology, support, and training. • James has been a consistent top producer for over 20 years, earning the respect of his colleagues, and has been inducted into the RE/MAX Hall of Fame.

DE DIC A TION AND C OM MI TMENT JUST ASK JAMES’ CLIENTS: “Just a quick note of thanks for a job well done! We interviewed quite a few agents for the job of selling our home, and you made the choice an easy one. And done well. We believe that you delivered a great price for our home and you had it in escrow within 17 days of listing it. And you did this with no yard sign and no inconvenient open houses! You really are something else. We were impressed by your vast knowledge of real estate, your effort to keep us updated…and of course…your negotiating skills. That perhaps is your best quality. James, I would recommend you without hesitation to any would-be home seller on “the hill”. It’s refreshing to find a young man with your integrity, sincerity, and work ethic. Continued success and prosperity in the future.” Sincerely yours, Peter Benson “Its been a little over a month since the smooth and successful closing on the sale of my home and I wanted to take a few moments and reflect back on your role in making it all happen. I selected you to represent the sale of my home because I was convinced that your contacts and marketing efforts within the Realtor community would be the factor that would drive traffic and qualified buyers to take an interest in my home. You came through for me even more than I expected and I saw it happen in two ways: First, the amount of viewing traffic was high and sustained through the period of the listing. Secondly, and even more importantly agents were prepared and excited before they even opened the door because they had talked to you and knew to appreciate the features of my home. All of your marketing efforts took place in the unfortunate context of the tragic attacks of September 11th. Despite this backdrop you kept up a positive beat about my home and interest remained high. When it came to the negotiation phase you were there to advise me as we weighed multiple offers and conducted negotiations with two well-qualified potential buyers. In the end, I recognized an excellent gain on my property despite owning it for only a short period of time. I know that your role in marketing and helping negotiate the deal made it all happen, for this I thank you and wish you continued success.” Sincerely, Rod Dillehay
R E/ MA X E STATE PR O P ERTI ES Just as it is imperative to choose the right agent, knowing why they have chosen to work for a specific brokerage is important. What a brokerage offers to both the agent and their clients in terms of service levels and products are keys to maximizing the success of selling and buying a home.

Established in 1984 by peninsula resident, Sandra Sanders, RE/MAX Estate Properties has experienced phenomenal growth.

LOC A L C OMMUNITY S UP P O RT RE/MAX Estate Properties agents are well known locally, nationally, and internationally for their involvement in many community programs. They are committed to working in their local community serving their clients’ real estate needs as well as being a part of the daily lifestyle. CHILDR EN’S MIR ACLE NETWORK Since partnering with Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals in 1992, RE/MAX agents have raised more than $147 million for the charity’s 170 member hospitals in the US and Canada. Donations help fund pediatric medical equipment, treatments, healthcare services, and charitable care. For some agents, these donations are very personal, helping kids in their own families and neighborhoods.
SUSAN G. KOMEN ® FOR THE CUR E RE/MAX affiliates have proudly supported Susan G. Komen® since 2002. Through the Home for the Cure program and past sponsorship of the Komen Race for the Cure Series, RE/MAX agents have contributed more than $7 million to the fight against breast cancer.
R E/MAX GR EEN Concerned about the environment? So is RE/MAX. Together, you and your RE/MAX agent can take steps to ensure a better environment for future generations.

Prior to any marketing strategies being implemented, it is critical to go through a process of discovery - determining the fair market value, understanding the barometer of current market conditions, and reviewing the variety of factors that will help us prepare your home for sale.

OF LUXURY MARKETING FOR YOUR HOME
MAR KE TIN G FO R MA XIMUM E XPOSURE Selling your home can be a very exciting experience, but it can also be an emotional one. As a REALTOR®, I have found the best way to sell a home is through partnership and teamwork — combining the understanding of your requirements and goals with my knowledge, expertise, effective marketing strategies, and extensive brokerage resources. Together we will: • • • • • • • • • • • •
Prepare for the “Window of Opportunity” Leverage the attributes of your location Prepare and present your home ready for sale Highlight your home’s features through professional photography Showcase your home to the market through professional and strategic marketing Maximize the exposure of your home through our extensive network Leverage the brokerage’s reputation and recognition Cooperate and communicate to maintain your home’s perception of value Promote your home locally, nationally, and internationally Maximize your home’s web exposure Always prepare your home so that it is ready to be shown to potential buyers Discuss and review the market’s analysis of your home — feedback is essential to knowing the perceived value and potential for negotiation • Finalize your sale • Find your next dream home
TH E W IN DOW O F OPPORTUN ITY The “Window of Opportunity” is the period in which your home will receive its maximum exposure — typically when your home is new on the market. In order to capitalize on this window, it is crucially important that your home is ready for sale: priced at Fair Market Value, prepared to showcase its features and attributes, and a marketing strategy is implemented to further increase its exposure.

MA R KE TING YOUR LOCATI O N According to real estate convention, the three most important criteria to consider when buying a property are: LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. In fact, buyers are often attracted to a general location, a neighborhood, or even a certain street, well before settling on a specific home. Understanding your location’s positives and negatives are important when determining price, and very significant in the marketing of your home. Misconceptions, preconceptions, and knowing the nuances of your home can make a significant difference in how a home is marketed, when it’s shown, and how it is positioned — one man’s displeasure can be another’s delight!
P R EPA R E TO PR E S ENT YOUR H OME First impressions are lasting. Preparing your home is one of the most difficult, emotional, and critical steps to maximizing its value — together we will review, recommend, prepare, and create an environment that is appropriate for the type of buyer looking to purchase your home. No matter how stunning, loved, or well-maintained your home, it is important that you view it with critical objectivity and whether it needs simple changes or major repairs, these should be addressed before the home is listed.
PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY Photography must reflect your property. Whether print or web, these photos are often the first impression that a potential buyer will receive. Take advantage of new technology to showcase the true essence of the property within its environment, especially since your buyer is likely to be from outside your local area. Lifestyle videos provide a realistic depiction of the intended space and livability. A photo shoot is the time when a home must shine — both figuratively and literally. A fully prepared home, clean, tidy, with clear sight lines, and shot in its best natural light will speak volumes to the viewer before and after the home is visited.

PR O F E SSIONA L & STRATEGI C MA R KE TIN G Sophisticated and professionally prepared marketing is essential to maximizing your home’s exposure and requires more than just listing the property for sale on the Internet and REALTORS® listing service; it needs to be a carefully prepared, strategically implemented plan. Your home must become a highly prized item, launched on the market with maximum impact, to create the right exposure and reach the right buyers. YAR D SIGNS AND DIR ECTIONAL SIGNAGE The trusted yard sign is the #1 way to show your home is for sale. It is fast, effective, and easy to spot. Directional signs help guide people to the home. PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SHOWINGS Broker tours, Open Houses, and Caravans are ways that other real estate agents see your home and recommend it to their potential buyers. This is why preparing the home is so important — sometimes real estate agents are more particular than buyers. LUXURY A DVERTISING For luxury homes, local advertising is not sufficient - these unique homes need exposure to the elite and discerning. We showcase your home to these affluent buyers through publications such as The Wall Street Journal, Unique Homes, DuPont Registry, Ocean Homes, The RE/MAX Collection Magazine, and the James Edition.
NETWORKING AND R EFER R ALS Real estate agents have a large database at their disposal, particularly their networks with other agents. Referrals are especially important in the luxury market, as you will want to work with a well-respected agent with an extensive network of contacts.
WEB EXPOSUR E 94% of buyers look at homes online as their first step in the home buying process. This trend will continue to increase over time. Placing your home online allows the home’s exposure to be seen locally, nationally, and internationally, whether it is on a computer, tablet, or cell phone.
CLHMS DESIGNATION AND MEMBERSHIP Working with an agent who is fully certified in luxury marketing is critical as you look to maximize the exposure of your home. My knowledge, expertise, and access to a unique and targeted network are second to none.
VIRTUAL TOURS / ONLINE VIDEO MARKETING Creating a digital experience and footprint is an integral part of advertising in the 21st century.
P R O FE SSIONA L PR I NTI NG AN D DIRE C T MAI L The power of showcasing your home and its unique features through professional photography and sophisticated marketing materials is crucial to setting your home apart from the competition. Professional promotional materials that feature your home and are mailed to your neighbors, buyers, and other REALTORS® are some of the most powerful ways to spread the message that your home is for sale. Your neighbors will be first to tell their friends and family about your home — they already love their community so they are your biggest advocates! Also, knowing where the potential buyers are locally is powerful — after all, 78% of homeowners purchase within a 10 mile radius of their present home.

However, we must ensure preparations are done up front — unnecessary items removed, space has been created, and a plan implemented for the best times to show the home, then the final prep and inviting touches are easy for us to add around your busy schedule. Each and every buyer will be pre-qualified. During the showing, a full guided tour will be provided to ensure that the features and nuances are showcased and explained to maximize the perception of value.

This report provides you with an in-depth analysis and a comprehensive list of actions, recommendations, and objectives.

DE F IN ING YOUR GO ALS AND OPTION S In the search for your perfect home, we must define the goals and reassess your requirements so that I can approach the search with complete insight. This will enable the creation of an appropriate action plan and expected timeline. • • • • • • •
Where are you thinking of moving — local or out of state? Do you have a budget? What do you and your family need from your next home? Are you looking for a turnkey or renovation property? What are your essential requirements during our search? Are there any financial considerations? When is the ideal time for you to move?
This information will enable a qualified search. Equally, it is important to ensure that we research the true value of homes and that their current selling price reflects an amount that the property is “worth” to you.
LOC A TING TH E RIGH T PRO P ERTY When helping you look for a property, I will make recommendations based on my experience and local knowledge, in addition to having access to a variety of technology, a wide network of area agents, and homes not yet on the market. A comparison chart and thorough objective inspection of each home, combined with such factors as market data and resale potential, will help in narrowing your search. By building a checklist, we can better evaluate each home and review together the important criteria of homes visited. And when you find that perfect home, I will help negotiate the best offer based on the condition of the home, length of time it’s been on the market, activity, location, and urgency of the seller. Ultimately, I will protect and represent your best interests.
On behalf of myself and my team, I’d like to thank you for giving me the opportunity to present this preview of the marketing services we can offer you and your property. I’d be pleased to assist you with the sale of your present home and the purchase of your next home, and the next one, because I’m not just providing a service, I’m building a relationship. Please let me know when I can be of service. Call me before you make any important real estate decisions; you’ll be glad you did.
