CREATING A NARRATIVE
Every home tells a story. Let’s tell the right one together. We begin by exploring your property, gaining a deep understanding of its past, present and future potential. We leverage our backgrounds in art, design and marketing, as well as our relationships in those worlds, to establish the frame through which buyers will encounter your property in its most unique and best light.
2
BUYER PROFILING
Framing the narrative helps appeal to the broadest swath of eligible buyers, while also targeting those most likely to make an offer. We combine market data insights with our boots-on-the-ground experience to define the profiles of buyers whom your home suits best. For each profile, a marketing campaign is designed with distinct language and aesthetics that contour to the buyer’s needs and desires.
3
DISTINCTIVE MARKETING
Marketing is our passion. We take immense care in how we introduce your home to the world. The Holcomb + Durkovic Group’s photography and videography are at the highest level, employing a contemporary, artistic perspective that feels equally at home on the wall of a gallery as on a realty website. We work with exceptional artists, writers, designers and stagers to strategically position your home within the market and tell a compelling narrative.

CUSTOM CAMPAIGN
Every home is unique, and we think property marketing should be the same. We custombuild marketing plans for every property based on its features, potential buyers, local market context and global luxury trends. Your listing is broadcasted on every relevant medium of outreach, including a custom web presence, social media, print, email and more. Plus, we reach out directly to our exclusive network of brokers, business leaders and well-qualified clients. Robust, sophisticated, elevated—your property receives the custom, red-carpet treatment it deserves.

WORDS FROM A HAPPY CLIENT
“Tim & Greg truly made our lives so much easier and we are so grateful to them” Corbin Bleu · Actor
“We have repeated over and over again to ourselves “I don’t know what we would do without Tim and Greg” throughout this entire process. They truly were the best decision we could have made. We never once felt like we were bothering them with our questions. They were always accessible and ready to help us. Tim and Greg combined are a book of knowledge when it comes to real estate. They offered us so much wisdom without even realizing it! They made the selling process, which can be extremely stressful, really fun at times. They have a wonderful sense of humor and we often felt like we were working alongside a trustworthy friend. We will continue to work with Tim and Greg, and recommend him to everyone we
know!! This was the best experience we have ever had with the selling and buying of a home. Tim completely understood who we were and our situation. Because of his own personal experience with renovating and flipping he was able to help us immensely when looking for our new home. He saw things that we would have never noticed had he not been with us. One (extremely hot) day we looked at ten houses together all over the San Fernando Valley! We admired his professionalism when he was talking with other agents and his sensitivity to some of the older tenants we encountered. Tim and Greg truly made our lives so much easier and we are so grateful to them for helping us open a new chapter in our lives!” Corbin Bleu
“Greg and Tim were very professional, honest, and thorough about all the issues that concerned us when they helped us buy our house. What really cinched it for me though, was when the real estate agent representing the seller of the house we bought, stated that in her twenty years of selling houses in this area she had not found another agent who was as honest as Greg and Tim. That only confirmed for me what I already had concluded.” Jerry
“Greg and Tim were very professional, honest, & thorough... when they helped us buy our house.”
“The kind of service that Greg and Tim provided is a totally different experience. Greg and Tim treated me like a family member, explained and analyzed the value and all the small details about to properties to me, gave me ideas of what is the best buy.” Mary and David
“A delight to work with from first meeting. Always available. Great knowledge. Great personality. Understanding of my personal needs and limitations with computers. I just always felt Tim and Greg represented the best in their field. It was a pleasure working with them and the group.” Sharon
“Tim, Greg, and their team delivered what they promised and more. We could not ask for a better team. Professional and excellent best describe Tim and Greg. Very easy to work with and delivered timely service all the way through. Despite Tim and Greg’s busy schedule, they somehow found time for you as if you were their only client. Thank you, Tim, Greg, and to the rest of the gang. We have already recommended Tim and Greg to our friends who will also sell their home!” Tess and Burt

It sold within a week over the asking price. Obviously, this is the wish of every seller. I highly recommend Tim Durkovic and Greg Holcomb. They have an excellent work ethic. Yet they are kind and sensitive people. They knows how to hit the right note.” Elizabeth

“We gladly recommend the team of Tim Durkovic and Greg Holcomb to sell your home. They give careful attention to every detail along the way. Tim is a master at the details and legal aspects of escrow. Greg is a great communicator who listened to what we said and was able to turn our concerns and wishes into concrete results. We can’t say enough for the importance they place on the staging of a home in preparation for sale. They sold our home in just one weekend with four viable offers entertained. Tim and Greg are there for you, are personable and easy to work with.” Russ and Cary
