Scott Reynolds Participates in Real Estate Panel

Feb. 2, 2012 - PRLog -- VERO BEACH, Fl., FEBRUARY 2012 – Scott Reynolds, Broker® with Dale Sorensen Real Estate (DSRE) was recently asked to participate in a panel discussion for the Martin County Board of Realtors.  The panel of top producing Brokers® on the Treasure Coast was invited to participate by Martin County Broker® Patrick Stracuzzi.

Reynolds was excited to be a part of the panel and interested to hear what others in the industry are doing.  “As a Realtor in Indian River County it was interesting to hear how my peers were doing in neighboring counties and I always enjoy sharing information that might help someone else,” Reynolds said.  The panel was asked questions about building their real estate business, servicing their clients, and market improvement.  “My take away from the meeting is Indian River County is starting to see some stabilization; however we are all going back to basics of exceptional print and internet marketing, productive sales force, pricing the home for the market place, and being able to demonstrate all of the attributes and value of the homes to the potential buyer,” he continued.

Nearly thirty local Realtors® attended to hear the panel speak.  Other panel members included Patrick Stracuzzi, of The Patrick Stracuzzi Real Estate Team at Re/Max of Stuart, Bill Mate with Waterfront Properties in Jupiter and Eric Pruitt with Keller Williams of the Palm Beaches.  Discussion included sharing their experiences and constructive tips on how to best engage with today’s buyers and sellers, current real estate market, and what buyers and sellers are looking for today from their real estate agents and brokers.  

Reynolds said a lot of insight and opinion from the panel was consistent.  “The general consensus was that Martin County and the surrounding markets were stabilizing and holding tight.  Now is the best time for sellers to sell as inventory is low. An important change is that agents are now able to allow the market to come up to the price of the home. However, the panel cautioned, if a home is not selling, it is not priced right.”  He also said that buyers want to take advantage of low interest rates, short sales and foreclosures but they need to prepare.  Verification of funds or loan approvals are now required documentation to accompany today’s offers.  

But as is in the past, customer service is still important.  “What hasn’t changed in today’s market is the importance of building a relationship with a Realtor®. A customer’s commitment to a Real Estate professional having the knowledge and experience needed to accomplish a successful Real Estate transaction is well worth the investment.”
