MEET

D AV I D VA N D E P U T T E My wife, Betty, and I visited the Upstate South Carolina area in 2007, and immediately fell in love with the pristine water of the lakes, the gorgeous mountain views, the natural beauty of land virtually untouched by humans, the four distinct seasons, and the kindness of the people we met. We bought a home site that year, and visited several times in 2008 and 2009. On our week-long and weekend visits, we quickly realized how special this area really is. My wife made the comment that once we were living here it would be like we were always on vacation.

DAVID VANDEPUTTE DRIVEN TO BE THE BEST NOT THE BIGGEST

When I am not helping my clients find their ideal home or home site, you’ll probably find me enjoying all the outdoor activities that the area offers, including golf, tennis, hiking with our dogs, and spending time on the lakes. I like to start my day working out at the exercise club because I find it invigorating–however, those who know me well will tell you it is because of my enjoyment of food and spirits.

My goal as a Realtor is to serve sellers, buyers, and investors who are considering the Lake Keowee area. My commitment is to serve my clients with honesty, integrity, and unwavering representation. I strive to have lifelong relationships with my clients, and to be a constant resource for years after our initial transaction. My philosophy is straightforward–to treat others as want to be treated, and to focus on what is best for them. I am driven to be the best, not the biggest!

I appreciate that you have taken time to understand what motivates me to live and work in the lake area. I hope to have the opportunity to put my knowledge and the expertise of the team to work for you and your family.

PRICING STRATEGY The best strategy for pricing your home is to determine its fair market value. The market value of your home is determined by a number of factors: • • • • • •

age location current market conditions consumer confidence general state of the economy competing home sites that are currently on the market We perform a complete and thorough analysis of the current market: 1. Relevant home sites that have recently sold 2. Home site sales that are pending - the home site is under contract and it has yet to close 3. Expired listings are examined - which are home sites that were on the market and they failed to sell.

– Attempt to determine why they didn’t sell – Determine if these home sites could be future competition if they come back to the market 4. Current, active on the market home sites - we determine your home site’s strengths, weaknesses and the opportunity with your home site versus the competition

Determining the market value price for your home site is one of the most critical elements in a successful real estate transaction.

Correctly pricing your home site means diligently studying the market, keeping you abreast as additional home sites become available, knowing what interested buyers are looking for and what they are willing to pay.

H E A R F R O M D AV I D’S C L I E N T S “David did an outstanding job on the sale of our Lake Keowee home. Smart. Service oriented. Resourceful. Great negotiator.

We appreciated working with David from start to finish on our sale. David did an excellent market analysis which helped us effectively and position our home. He brought in a superb stager (and even was hands-on helping us implement her plans). He was on top of showings and is clearly respected by other agents. When we had a prospect, he was instrumental in negotiating and closing the deal. During inspections, he did phenomenal trouble-shooting which headed off some serious headaches. This all led to a smooth closing.

The bottom line is that we sold our $2+ million home in less than four months. We can’t thank David enough for the terrific job he did and we highly recommend him.”
