-Sandra Thomas

I would like to take this opportunity to let you know what a pleasure it was to work with Terri HigginsWakabayashi. The original contact of our real estate transaction was with Dan Wakabayashi, But after realizing the unique situation our family was going through Dan paired me with his wife, Terri. This was the perfect fit for our family needs. Terri has the drive and passion for her clients and job which is hard to find in this present day. She listened to all my needs as the executor and at no given time did it appear to bother Terri personally or professionally. Even when the transactions had a few upsets, Terri was right there with a solution. Her knowledge and expertise showed through the upsets which were the fault of the other real estate company. I would like to thank the “Team” of Wakabayashi’s for their tenacity, passion and thoughtfulness. A sincere Thank you for, Terri.

Top Reasons to List with Dan and Terri

Weekly Updates:

Every seller gets a personal phone call at least once per week to discuss showing activity, buyer feedback, agent feedback and recommendations for saleability of the home.

Active Searches For Buyers:

There are two ways to get a home sold once it is listed. They are, waiting for a buyer to show up or wait for another agent to bring a buyer to it. Or, we can spend our time working to find a buyer or promote other agents to bring one to us. We have chosen the second method.

Reverse Prospecting:

We use the MLS as a tool to actively seek out agents who have buyers matching the description of your home. These agents are then personally contacted by us to promote your home.

Lead Follow-Up:

Do you wish to know what the buyer thought of your home? We know you do. We contact every agent who has shown your home. Are they going to be presenting an offer? Are the scheduling a second showing? What did they like about the property? What did they dislike about the property?

Weekly Training:

We are involved in the most successful training program for Real Estate sales professionals in the country. We constantly strive to improve the quality of service we provide our clients.

Strategic Pricing for Top Market Value:

We will show you how to price your home to achieve multiple offers versus receiving no offers at all.

One key note about staging, is that it’s not about what you like, it’s about what will appeal to the greatest number of potential buyers. So first off, start with a good thorough cleaning, both inside and out. Freshly painted rooms in neutral colors can make a world of difference.
