Client SUCCESS STORIES
LIZ T. HOME SELLERAbsolutely top notch agents, you won’t find better in the business. Their knowledge and expertise in preparing our home for sale, excellent marketing strategy and superb negotiating skills led to a rapid sale at $30K over listing! Attentiveness and attention to detail allowed for a stress free seller experience from listing to close of escrow. We highly recommend Siobhan and Bryan!
JEFF P. HOME SELLERSiobhan and Bryan are the ultimate professionals and we highly recommend them! They are a great team. Their photos, videos, and marketing are bar none. Potential buyers that come to their showings are treated to their personal touch and expertise. Buyers are shown all the special things that you have done to your home so they can see how special a home could be to them. We sold our home when open houses were not an option. They set up 8 showings the first weekend. We had 6 offers and sold our home at full price in just 2 days on the MLS! If you are wanting to sell your Orange County home, please make sure you consider the Ulnick Group!!
FRED & SHARON H. HOME SELLERS & BUYERSWe have had the good fortune to meet and enlist the resources of Bryan and Siobhan to sell our multi-million dollar home. From their initial sales presentation, listing, negotiation, sale and close, the Ulnick’s delivered, often exceeding our expectations. Siobhan & Bryan made the selling & escrow process of our home painless. Their attention to detail, communication and expertise was excellent. We were so satisfied with our experience we again utilized their real estate expertise on our subsequent purchase of a new home. When needed again, the Ulnick Group will be our first call.
KIM P. HOME SELLERWhen we first considered selling our home, we were uncertain as to the best time to sell, upgrades that might be needed and, most important, what price to expect. We interviewed several Realtors to gain perspective.
From the beginning, we knew that Bryan and Siobhan Ulnick were for us. It was clear they knew the real estate market, our neighborhood market and our house. They were better prepared for our meeting than anyone else. Their assessment of our situation was specific to our home and they offered recommendations that were different from the others. And they assured us they could get more money for us than the others had suggested. In fact, the asking price they recommended was more than we had hoped for. We signed on with them.
By the third day of the listing, we had 4 offers – at or above the asking price! We were amazed. Siobhan assisted in the selection process and before we knew it, we were in escrow. All of this took place in March – the month the virus came to the US. She had a sense of which buyer was more likely to close on time. And we closed on time. No problems, no delays and no disappointments.
There are a lot of real estate agents in south Orange County. But you will find none finer than Bryan & Siobhan Ulnick. If you want to sell your house for the best possible price, save yourself some time and call them now.
BRIAN & AMANDA K. SELLERS
We are so grateful for Siobhan and Bryan! They listened to what we hoped to get for our home and also what we wanted in a future home. They never pushed us , but answered questions anytime they came up, and then were ready for us when we decided we were officially making the move. They guided us seamlessly through two incredibly fast escrows and we are so happy they got more than $375K over our asking price AND helped us get our new home in such a competitive market! Thank you, thank you!

SELLING A LIFESTYLE
LOCALS THAT KNOW THE NEIGHBORHOOD
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 is important to know when determining price, but is actually 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.
Having resided and raised their two children, Keelan and McKenna, in San Clemente for 30+ years, Bryan & Siobhan Ulnick are both heavily ingrained in the renowned community they’re so grateful to call home.
While knowledgeable in neighborhoods and locales throughout Orange County, the Ulnick Group specializes in the Coastal communities of South Orange County, including the communities of San Clemente, Dana Point, San Juan Capistrano, Laguna Beach, Laguna Niguel and Rancho Mission Viejo.

PRE-LISTING MARKETING
DRIVING INTEREST BEFORE YOUR HOME HITS THE MLS
The average Realtor waits until a home is listed in the MLS to start marketing. They also tend to wait for buyers to come to them. We do things differently. Before your home is even listed, we launch a marketing campaign to get potential buyers and buyer agents just as excited about your home as we are.
Pre-listing marketing campaigns can get 100s of potential homebuyers interested in your home before it even hits the market.
PROPERTY WALK THROUGH STORY
TELLING YOUR UNIQUE PROPERTY STORY
Your home is special, and we want buyers to know why. That’s why each listing has a unique property story that immerses buyers into your home with detailed descriptions.
Your house is not a 4 Bed | 4.5 Bath w / views. It’s “A Spanish Mediterranean design with stunning architecture, thoughtfully designed floor plan, ocean views, designer touches, and state-of-theart details around every corner.”
The patio is not just an outdoor patio; it’s where you “Enjoy sparkling ocean views on a sunny afternoon, or relax and watch the sunset by the fire-pit on a cool evening.”
We want buyers to hear firsthand what they will love about your home. We’ll tell them that story.
BREATHTAKING PHOTOGRAPHY
SHOWCASING YOUR HOME AT ITS VERY BEST
We team up with top photographers and videographers to showcase your property to the world using high-resolution day and twilight photos. Our professional photographers use state of the art camera equipment to take stunning HD photos and video of your home.
3D VIRTUAL TOURS PROPERTY & LIFESTYLE VIDEOS
CREATING A CAPTIVATING AND IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE SHARING UNIQUE PERSPECTIVES AND CINEMATIC ANGLES
The Ulnick Group is one of the few luxury real estate teams to offer their clients aerial images. The Ulnicks have partnered with a photographer who uses an Aerial Image Maker that offers highquality aerial videos and photography services that command the viewer’s attention with unique cinematic angles never seen before.
Before putting your house on the market, we have a professional tour designer create an advanced 3D Interactive Walkthrough tour of your property. These designers create a visually captivating and truly immersive 3D tour experience. We transport buyers into your property. They are able to walk through and look around as if they are there!
OUR WEBSITE
PROMOTING WHAT WE LOVE MOST ABOUT YOUR HOME
The biggest reason we’re able to make your home stand out is because we control the presentation of it on our website ulnickgroup.com
We will showcase your home the way we envision it and let buyers know exactly what we love about your home.
Our website is user friendly, beautiful, and captures 100s of leads each month.
SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING
REACHING AN EVER GROWING DATABASE OF POTENTIAL BUYERS
It’s been said that Facebook is now bigger than Google!
We know people don’t go to Facebook to buy a home. But we also know the people who are buying homes are on Facebook. With over 1.8 Billion people on Facebook per day, we use Facebook’s advanced targeting technology to strategically place your home in front of thousands of people who we think would be the most likely candidates to buy it. We craft a demographic profile of your potential buyer and run custom online ads to target them using hyper-focused campaigns.
These leads are then captured by our proprietary, mobile-friendly website and added to our ever-growing database for us to follow up with. We have invested in cutting-edge digital marketing technology, and utilize all of the up-to-date social media outlets that consumers use today to target, track, and convert buyers.
We also share your property on Instagram. Visual storytelling is crucial. Instagram is the fastest-growing social media platform globally, reaching over 500 million active monthly users. We include both photo and video promotion for our listings.
NEWSLETTERS
PROPERTY BROCHURES
POSTCARDS
CUSTOM DESIGNED PRINT MARKETING
PUTTING HIGH-END MATERIALS IN THE HANDS OF POTENTIAL BUYERS
Even though we live in the digital age, we want your home to be seen everywhere. That’s why we utilize all channels and create beautiful high-end custom property brochures, just listed/sold flyers, and newsletters that can be found in our local newspaper and magazines. We work with professional graphic designers and copywriters to create a clean and modern style for all of our print materials.
OPEN HOUSES
STRATEGICALLY PLANNED SHOWINGS FOR THE MOST QUALIFIED BUYERS
We hold open houses that are strategically planned based on your unique property. We make sure to effectively market the open house well in advance to ensure we get your home in front of the most qualified buyers. We also reach out to our network of Realtors and buyers that we believe need to see your home! We create an environment that draws buyers in and makes them feel at home.
PERSONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE
COMMUNICATING WITH OUR CLIENTS EVERY STEP OF THE WAY
We keep you in the loop at all times. When your home is in our hands, we provide you with weekly progress reports on the number of showings, and the results from our digital and print advertising efforts.
The most motivated buyers are eagerly searching for the latest properties that hit the market at different hours of the day. We communicate with potential buyers in a way that works best for them. Whether that’s via text, email, or calling them directly. We are available and always keep buyers happy and interested in your property.
