SDH FINDS DREAM HOMES! “Better than Redfin and Zillow!”
“This is by far the best mobile home search tool I’ve used!”
Cutting-Edge Technology for Your Home Search The speed and convenience of the Search Denver Homes Team’s technology platforms are key to giving our clients a crucial first-mover advantage in finding their new home. Long gone are the days when a consumer can rely on websites like Zillow and Redfin that can be slow to update with the latest data and often provide incorrect information. Our home search website - SearchDenverHomes.com - is updated in real-time, directly from the same MLS systems that real estate agents use. Not only does our technology give you the ability to search the latest listings, our agents are home search experts, working closely with you to hone your search to your needs. INSTANT COMMUNICATION! Directly through our platforms, you can reach out to your agent immediately to schedule an in-person or virtual home tour...while other buyers are waiting for a return phone call. Time is of the essence!
THE TEAM ADVANTAGE MEET YOUR TEAM
We don’t allow our skilled agents to be bogged down by paperwork. We understand that an exceptional REALTOR® won’t be an excellent administrator, so we enable each team member to do what they do best. We have a team of specialists who handle the “behind the scenes” work, so our agents are freed up to do what they do best: FIND YOUR DREAM HOME.
LEAD AGENT:
CLIENT EXPERIENCE MANAGER Marcia Zayas
To achieve our mission of 100% client satisfaction, we have built a team of specialists, working seamlessly as a well-oiled machine. Our skilled agents are laser focused on FINDING YOUR DREAM HOME, and negotiating the best deal for you. Most agents must balance that goal with time spent on transaction paperwork and marketing...but not Search Denver Homes agents! Our team is structured to ensure that every team member is doing what they do best, whether that is client-facing or behind the scenes.
Marcia is your dedicated resource and will be in communication with you throughout the entire process, all the way to the closing table. We are committed to exceeding your expectations and ensuring you always get the attention you need and deserve. If at any time you feel we could be doing anything better or different, please reach out to Marcia to discuss.
