NO STONE UNTURNED™: I have adopted this mission as my objective in representing our clients. What this means to you is we will employ every smart, traditional method of representing you as a buyer or seller AND ALSO we will implement a variety of creative & innovative techniques to achieve your objective. We are hoping that your real estate goals are something like this: Seller - we have provided a comprehensive campaign in which no reasonable or creative idea has been overlooked. Buyer - our all-encompassing property search system finds the best opportunities for you in today's marketplace.

AS A SELLER: we have professionally designed marketing materials and advertising for your home that will create impact to prospective buyers and the real estate agents who represent them. These marketing communications are designed to stand out from the competition. Additionally, we will then release these communications as a strategically designed campaign that casts a large net into all of the areas that buyers and buyer's agents will be looking:

• Internet - your home will appear on 89 of the most effective real estate websites, including the New York Times. Our luxury listings also appear on Christies, Elegant Homes and duPont Registry websites.
• E marketing - we've assembled high quality lists of prospective buyers, friends, clients and realtors who will receive smart, attractive email notices of your property.
• Color Magazines - - Marin Extraordinary Living, Marin County Homes Magazine, Homes Magazine-San Francisco, IJ Marin Homes Magazine & for our luxury listings - duPont Registry and GMAC Luxury Market Report.
• Newsprint - Marin Independent Journal, San Francisco Chronicle, and for our luxury properties - Wall Street Journal & the New York Times
• Direct Mail - high quality, distinctive over-sized postcards mailed to 'proven' target audience databases
• Professional Photography - literally lights..camera…action. We've received best results with our professional photographer who A) who uses lights to maximize the beauty of interior shots and B) captures a large selection of good quality photographs so we'll have maximum information on the internet and MLS.
• Networking - our team is constantly interacting with the other top agents - matching buyers & sellers - and promoting your house
• Teaser Marketing - whenever we have some time before your property comes on MLS, we will do 'coming soon' marketing to build awareness and anticipation before the formal unveiling

LOOKING TO BUY: The team approach works for you as we have several sets of eyes on a constant search for the right property. We proactively see most of the homes that come on the market in Marin County along with many before they come on the market. We are continually networking with their fellow agents to match buyers with special homes. We personally employ the most technologically advanced methods of the home search process and we can make similar tools available to our computer-savvy clients. We are able to do the majority of the legwork to make the process as easy and stress-free as possible. Our experience and skills in construction, property values and negotiations make us a valuable buyer advocate throughout the home search and escrow process.

About Jeff Sterley

Jeff has over 30 years experience specifically in Marin County real estate management and sales. Jeff has continually performed at the top of his craft in a number of varied positions - from sales agent to manager and sales manager of some of Marin's top offices and companies. He brings a depth of experience and creativity rarely found in the home buying and selling process.

Marketing is a key to having your home stand out from the competition. Jeff's marketing started with self-taught, grass roots' experience and was highly advanced when Jeff took a brief hiatus in the early 90's from real estate to do a successful marketing business in San Francisco. High profile companies in real estate, lending, wine & high-tech industries provided a sophisticated education in everything from graphic design, print production, photography, distribution, internet/email, copy writing and overall strategic marketing. Jeff applies this knowledge to every house he markets.

Teamwork works! Why not have the synergy and momentum of a finely tuned machine working for you. As a valued client, we make sure that all your needs are cared for and that nothing slips through the cracks.

A busy and successful team is getting things accomplished with positive results for our clients.
