We’re Committed!

We strive for every client to have a first class experience when working with us.

  • Your interests are the most important thing in any transaction. Not ours or anyone else’s. A real estate transaction really is all about you!

  • We maintain the highest standards of ethics and professionalism with our clients as well as with other agents and service providers.

  • Our marketing expertise is well established and we know our job is to make your property look superb- this gets you the most interest from buyers and the highest possible sales price. We use every tool in our arsenal to achieve this.

  • One of our biggest values to you is as your negotiator. This requires knowledge, expertise, finesse and sometimes an aggressive approach. Nothing stands in the way of our being fully armed and we’re ready and informed enough to stand tough on your behalf in order to get the best sale value for you.

  • We coordinate everything that needs to be done in your transaction, planning, organizing inspections, meeting with you to review disclosures, assisting with due diligence, helping troubleshoot problems before they occur so that you close on time and with no surprises.

  • Problem solving is a big part of our job and it’s our aim to keep problems off your desk. We work to ensure you have as little stress as possible and to take as much off your plate as we can, in the process.

Compass – Marketing & Innovation

We have a full in-house marketing department. We have staff here in Sonoma County, supported by specialists in San Francisco and New York. Our associates help us in preparing the advertising, publicity, visual aids, direct mail, social media posts, videography and the entire gamut of tools we use to promote our listings.

Our technology also enables buyers to find and gather information about possible properties much more easily than ever before. We prepare ‘collections’ of properties for you to preview online, as we narrow down the options together we learn much more about what your real needs and preferences are so that we can hit the bullseye when helping you find the right property.

Compass provides an unparalleled approach to digital marketing and many innovative programs to help our clients. Making us more productive enables us to better serve your needs. Developing breakthrough technology gives us an edge and therefore YOU an edge against the competition!
