Galicia in Laguna Niguel
Chris was amazing and very knowledgeable! From day 1 he was upfront and honest about what needed to get done in order to sell our home and within 6 days of being on the market it sold for asking price! He also helped us find our dream home. It took a little while to find but he was constantly updating us with new listings and it paid off in the end. We highly recommend Chris, he is as good as it gets with a Agent. We were very lucky to find him.
Justin in Ontario
Chris was a pleasure to get to know and work with. Chris invested plenty of personal time and effort to market our home. As a result, he was able to find the best qualified buyer in record time! Chris exceeded our expectations. We have already recommended Chris to our neighbors!
Kelly in Riverside
Chris was awesome to work with. As a first time home seller, I was grateful to have such an experienced and responsive agent to work with. He went above and beyond for us as we aimed to sell our house in the time frame we needed. His marketing for the home was fabulous and open houses were packed. We will be using him again on any future home sales or searches.
Aaron in Palm Springs
Chris is an awesome Realtor. He is fast to respond, answers all your questions and is quick to sell homes. He advocated for us and I could not be happier with the results of the time it took to sell our home and how much we received for it. He is trustworthy and honest, and that is difficult to find in the Realtor world. I highly recommend him for any of your realty needs.
Muhammad in Rancho Cucamonga
Very friendly, very professional. He sold our house in 48 hrs. He handled all the negotiations, and took care of all the negotiations for our new home as well. We highly recommend him.
Lori in Lake Mathews
I had the good fortune to have Chris Taylor help me sell a custom home. His knowledge of the area was very impressive. He was extremely supportive and understanding of my anxiety on this sale and was always available to answer questions. There are often very challenging issues with custom builds on acreage, but Chris helped me negotiate them and kept me at ease. He was the reason for the fast and fair sale. I would highly recommend him to anyone, buying or selling.
Kim in Eastvale
I was a first time home seller, and was not looking forward to all the steps I thought it entailed. The first day I met Chris, he was prepared, knowledgeable and very easy to talk to. He priced the house perfectly and he knew what little fixes needed to be done. He sold my house in 2 days, well over the asking price! I'm telling you, do not question him, he knows what he's doing. I will definitely be using him in the future and I will recommend him to everyone I know! Thanks Chris!!
Jen in Sherman Oaks

HOME PREPARATION
Having walked your home together, I will make suggestions that I believe will lead to a higher possible sales price. Some of these suggestions come with a cost and here is one of the greatest tools I bring to the table… The TRG Concierge Program.

STAGING
We utilize the services of one of Southern California’s top professional staging consultants to create a warm and inviting environment that highlights the best architectural features and selling points of your home. Our staging consultants are Feng Shui-certified and well-versed in a broad spectrum of demographics. Understanding the target audience for potential buyers is a key to our success — and yours. When complete, professional staging will turn your home into a showplace that plays to the needs and desires of its prospective buyers.
REALTOR.com estimates that a staged home sells for no less than 3% more than a non-staged home.
Is there a difference?
You tell me…
PROFESSIONAL VIDEOGRAPHY
While our marketing is largely considered unparalleled within the real estate community, it is our video that simply puts us on another level and is the perfect opportunity for me to blend my two greatest passions: movies and real estate. With the connections I’ve amassed over my years in the entertainment industry I have put together a crew of experienced filmmakers that utilize state-of-the-art equipment — stedicam gimbal systems, in-camera ramping techniques, animated effects, aerial shooting — and masterful editing to tell a story. Couple that with shallow-depth close-ups on key features and snippets of neighborhood hot spots and you have a production value far beyond the every day real estate video. My goal with this is to show off your home like it's the king of the block — the Star of the Movie.

VIRTUAL TOURS
Blending professional photography of your home with a pleasant musical accompaniment, our three-minute virtual tour will draw prospective buyers in and create an emotional connection that will last long after the video has ended. Since it comes in the form of a simple sharable link, it is quick to make its way around and add to the attention the home receives. This important marketing tool is will increase interest—and showings—of your home and will help achieve your goal of selling for the best price possible in the least amount of time.
REALTOR.com estimates that these Virtual Tours can add at least 1% to the sales price of a home.
PLAN OF ATTACK
While the social media campaigns we create are widespread and cast a large net extending from Los Angeles to Orange County — two areas where I have repeatedly captured buyers that have led to record-breaking sales — the specific plan of attack is directed with an intense focus on the Big 3 — Facebook, Google, Instagram — and is reverse-engineered from the date of our first open house:

THE OPEN HOUSE
Holding an Open House is the best way to showcase everything your home has to offer inside and out which is what makes this plan so critically important and powerful. With your approval, we will restrict all initial showing requests until the first official Open House which we do heavy marketing campaigns to advertise. This allows us to create a buzz and build anticipation and excitement about your home coming to market in a market with such limited supply as we have been experiencing.
FINAL THOUGHTS
John --
I manage a lot of Contingency Sales -- many of which are referred by Builders like DR Horton -- and I know all the questions and concerns you have. In fact, I know the questions you haven’t even thought to ask yet as well as the concerns you’ll eventually have -I have the answers and the solutions. This is what I do.
I also know that regardless of the market we are in, this is something that must be handled with precision, professionalism, communication, and a toolbox of marketing covering every corner of the home-buying and home-selling landscape.
This is YOUR home. This is YOUR life. This is a BIG decision and I’d love the opportunity to help and guide you through all of this!
