STEVE HILL and his “2ND MILE SERVICE” Team

DRE#01065494

E-mail: SteveHillSellsHomes@msn.com

WANT AN AGENT WHO ISN’T AFRAID to PUT HIS MONEY WHERE HIS MOUTH IS?

Real estate agents are NOT all the same! There’s a reason why the following call Steve Hill to represent them when they buy or sale a home: Real estate agents from OTHER companies, brokers, loan officers, commercial real estate agents, attorneys, & real estate attorneys (including law firm partners):

It’s the “2nd Mile” Service . . . plus the 27 years of success negotiating buyer/seller contracts in Contra Costa, Alameda, and Solano Counties for MLS & non-MLS properties, REOs (foreclosures), pre-foreclosures, new construction, probate homes, short sales, corporate relocation homes, HUD homes, BMRs, and more.

It’s a competitive market out there! Multiple offers are still the norm. Perhaps all the examples of Steve helping low-down-payment buyers beat out higher-priced offers—including higher-priced cash offers—may or may not be compelling to you, but this should be:

If you use Steve as your buyer’s agent and face multiple offers and then lose out to an offer with similar (or worse) price and terms as yours, Steve will PAY YOU money! NO KIDDING!!!

P.S. Do you see anyone else with this performance guarantee?

60 Eagle Rock Way, Suite B Brentwood, CA 94513

Susan has been an absolute blessing to Allan & I. She was there every step of the way, and went above and beyond the duty of a real estate professional. She is number 1 in my book! She truly is the best in the business. I highly recommend her in the sale of one’s home. I give her a diamond over 5 stars. ~Alison Roby

We had the pleasure of working with Susan Redgrave on the sale of our home in Brentwood. The experience, which can be stressful, was overwhelmingly positive, thanks entirely to Susan. She put together an effective plan that took us from preparing the house through to closing, and each step along the way was clearly laid out and explained fully. Any questions that we had along the way were answered quickly, & accurately, and always with patience, and a positive attitude.

Susan did an excellent job of communicating progress, timing, next steps, and etc., during the entire process. She took on the burden of coordinating painters, landscapers, carpet cleaners, house cleaners and stagers, who transformed the home into an attractive and desired property. She hosted a brokers tour and held open houses, which generated additional interest in the home. We ended up with multiple offers, all over the asking price. This allowed us to select the one that we thought was the best fit for the neighborhood.

She even helped us on the purchase of our new place, by offering insight and advice on properties that we were looking at.

I would highly recommend Susan to anyone who is thinking of selling, or buying, in the Brentwood area. Besides being fun, and easy to work with, she is the epitome of professionalism, is extremely hard-working, and an excellent communicator. it was the easiest real estate transaction that I've been a part of. ~Allan Roby My sister and I had to sell our mother's house as she recently passed. We chose Susan Redgrave at Dudum Realty based upon a recommendation from a friend of mine. We could not have been in better more capable hands. Susan handled everything. She was very prompt, excellent communication and she acted professionally at all times. She let us make our own decisions but chimed in and offered advice and direction when we needed it. In the past I have worked with other real estate agents and normally they take a look around, create a list of things that need to be done to make the house attractive and place all that responsibility squarely in the laps of the seller. Susan was not like that. She found things that needed to be addressed and she took the lead and fixed them. She had many contacts that would come over and fix things immediately. My sister and I live 45 min to an hour away from Brentwood and we found Susan's help invaluable. Bottom line we got multiple offers and sold the house above asking price due to the abilities that Susan and Dudum Realty offers. I would highly highly recommend Dudum and Susan. In fact I have already done so with my children's mother who is moving out of Brentwood soon. If you are looking to sell or buy in the Brentwood and surrounding areas, you cannot go wrong in choosing Dudum Realty and Susan Redgrave. She is fantastic. ~Scott Harms

My wife and I feel Susan had went and continues to go above and beyond all expectations. We felt at times she was a mind reader. She was very accommodating to our schedule which was greatly appreciated. She always had our best intentions in mind. We can't say enough about Susan and how well we were treated through the entire process. She even dropped off cookies for Easter. She made us feel special. ~Andy & Cedez

1. Magazine readership has increased over the last 5 years in the United States.

2. 93% of all American adults read magazines regularly.

3. Magazines usually stay in homes and offices for weeks and months (with ads being looked at again and again) while internet ads can disappear into cyberspace in the blink of an eye.

4. Reading a magazine remains a uniquely intimate and immersive experience.

5. Not only is magazine readership up, but readers spend an average of 43 minutes per use.

6. Further, those 43 minutes of attention are typically undivided. Magazines and magazine ads garner the most attention: BIGresearch studies show that when consumers read magazines they are much like to engage with other media or to take part in non-media activities compared to the users of TV, radio or the Internet.

7. Magazines delivers more ad impressions that TV or Web in each half-hour period.

8. Magazine readership in the 18 to 34 segment is growing.

9. Magazines are the No. 1 medium of engagement - across all dimensions measured. Simmons' Multi-Media Engagement Study finds magazines continue to score significantly higher than TV or the Internet in ad receptivity and all of the other engagement dimensions, including "trustworthy" and "inspirational".

10. Magazines outperform other media in driving positive shifts in purchase consideration/intent.

11. Magazines rank No. 1 at influencing consumers to start a search online - higher than newer media options.

12. Magazines reach specific audiences. The only people who pick up this Real Estate magazine are people interested in real estate(buying, selling, etc.).

L

Tis the season to go shopping. As of this writing, Black Friday was yesterday and for those who participated, a number of tremendous deals were obtained.

There is one more area of commerce where the deals last all through the holiday season without the brutality of wading through a line at your local warehouse store. That, of course, is the real estate market. It is open daily and during the holiday season there are deals, mark-downs, and other opportunities to save that last for the entire season.

You will not have to wrestle with someone you do not know for an item that has a limited lifespan (the example I see often is the one where people are fighting over a television set). The TV will last a few year until the 3D model comes out (or 4,5, or 6D, assuming that virtual reality goes the next step). You definitely have to wake up at zero dark 30 to stand in line in cold temperatures while it is raining (or snowing) hoping that the treasure you desire has not been sold already once you enter the store.

Shopping for real estate is a much more pleasurable experience. You will be accompanied by a product expert who knows everything there is to know about the home. You will have your personal tour, with the additional holiday sights, sounds, and smells (who doesn’t like the smell of hot apple cider?) while you assess the value to you and the family. And this is the best part, one gift is all you need to purchase for the entire family!

Seriously, buying a home during the holidays can be the best purchase you can make. There is not a lot of competition in the market and Sellers who are active in the market, really (really!) want to sell their home to you. Often enough, prices, terms, and concessions will be offered up to the lucky homebuyer!

This year there is a special bonus for you as well; interest rates have stalled and in some case fallen!

This was unexpected a few months ago and jumping in to grab them (without having to fight with someone to get them) may save you even more!

If this message peaks your interest, we are here to help you find the best holiday gift you can give your family. Give us a call at 925-308-7045. If not we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

For an Ounce of Prevention then Think Maintenance

By Patrick McCarran Broker

The rain may have started and it may be wet still but the weather will be worse soon so there is still time to do some deferred maintenance to make sure your home is in tip-top shape. Even if you aren’t planning to sell your home, you should still add these chores to your list to help preserve your home’s value and help avoid major repairs later on.

Walk Around the Outside Check for any past damage. Look for those sagging, loose and leaking gutters. Now is the right time to clean out the gutters. Is your roof missing any shingles, or if tile are there any slipped out of place, or is there any water damage under the eaves? A common nuisance is foliage growing in and on the roof, such as grass and weeds or an overhanging tree.

Check the valleys where the slope of the roof meets, this is a common area where debris forms or birds make a home and will cause leaks.

Mother Nature is a formidable force and over time you’re your home will prove no match. Promptly schedule repairs for those items you can’t do

yourself.

Walk around your yard as if you were a first-time visitor. What impression does your home make? Be sure to clear away fallen branches and leaves. A great idea is a vegetable garden we have a great climate

in the area and it is very rewarding to have food you grew yourself not to mention educational if you have children. Prune shrubs and trees to keep them manageable.

If your irrigation water supply has been off for the winter, turn it back on. Test your automatic sprinkler system or connect your water hose and check for cracks and leaks.

Replace old washers or sprinkler heads.

Don’t forget the backyard! Is it time to condition your deck? Be sure to hammer in any loose nails, or replace them with galvanized deck screws.

Replace any broken boards or rails.

Consider renting a power washer to clean dirt and mildew from the wood, and then apply an all-weather sealer or stain. Cover and protect that patio furniture from the weather.

Patrick McCarran “Know Your Options” 32 • Real Estate GUIDE

January 17, 2019• Volume 12 - Issue 13

Check your fences and repair any broken fence boards to protect from future storms. If you have good neighbor fences you may add a small board at the base to make sure the board don’t fall out during the next wind storm. It is a good idea to stain your fences once a year to extend the life of your fence.

If you are just moving in what a great time to get started. Clean the pool if it has been covered all winter. Wash windows, screens and windowsills; repair any past damage.

Take A Tour Inside The first step in any successful endeavor is to make a list. Start by going around to each room and make a list of things to do in each room.

Then dive in. Dust walls and ceilings to remove cobwebs and wash any grimy areas, don’t forget the ceiling fans. Wash window curtains or remove drapes for dry cleaning, dust the blinds. Deep clean rugs and carpets. Dust and polish wood or laminate floors. Don’t forget the kitchen cabinets with a little maintenance such as Old English can really extend the life of your cabinets and give the whole room a fresh look.

Check the central air-conditioning unit for debris and obstructions it is important to have good air flow for maximum efficiency and to prolong the life of the unit. Vacuum the main condenser coil on top of the unit. Check the operating condition of window air-conditioning units; remove and wash filters in mild soapy water.

Make sure all exhaust fans and vents are clean and clear. Don’t forget to remove the lint buildup from the clothes dryer vent.

One often-overlooked area is the fireplace. Be sure to sweep ashes carefully into your fireplace’s ash pit or into a dustpan. If you used it frequently then you may want to call a professional chimney sweep to have it cleaned and lower risk of fire. Clean and lightly oil fireplace tools.

Look around for clutter. Are there items you don’t use any longer? If you are planning on moving, what items will you not need? Consider having a garage sale and then either donate or trash the remaining items.

And lastly, possibly the most important of all, don’t forget to replace batteries in smoke and carbon monoxide detectors even if they are not dead put some fresh ones in (and remember to recycle the old ones). You may have missed it this year but in the future plan to change them when you change your clock for daylight savings.

Although performing these chores may be dreaded task, they go a long way in maintaining and even enhancing the attractiveness and quality your home and save this list for the spring, it will go quicker if have started now.
