CALL MIKE TODAY FOR A FREE MARKET ANALYSIS OF YOUR PROPERTY

Put Mike's 29 years of experience negotiating real estate contracts and 29 years of real estate marketing experience to work for you, to get you the most money, in the least time, with minimal inconvenience to you. Mike utilizes his experience to successfully implement highly effective marketing tools, including repetitive exposure and cross promotion, to help sell his listings. All marketing materials promote his web site, where your home is spotlighted as one of Mike's listings and seen by thousands of potential on-line home buyers (see The Internet below).

Following are some of the basics of Mike's marketing plan. When he visits your home or investment property to determine it's value, he provides you with a FREE Market Analysis of your property, with the most current information about what is happening with home prices in your neighborhood. He will provide an honest, accurate price analysis of your property. This analysis indicates the Price Point of your area for your size property, in today's market. It is especially important with the current economic conditions, to set the price correctly and to prepare your home to show. There are a large inventory of homes available, the buyers are shopping, and the best home values at the right price, are the ones that are selling.

It’s important to note that Mike, as a Multi-Million Dollar producing Realtor (MIKE’S ANNUAL SALES VOLUME EXCEEDED $13 MILLION), represents buyers as well as sellers. This is an important distinction, as many “listing agents” rarely show your property themselves once it’s listed. They rely on agents like Mike to provide buyers for their listings. Mike’s intention is to sell your property himself. He doesn’t try to collect listings in large numbers, he tries to sell them as quickly as possible, and for the most money.

GET MORE BANG FOR YOUR BUCK!! We don’t believe anyone does more to sell homes, investment properties and building projects, than Mike. Aside from listing the information about your home on the MLS to make it available to agents in this area, Mike employs several unique and innovative tools to market your property - - - at no additional cost to you:

THE INTERNET - By far, the #1 tool used by potential real estate buyers prior to purchasing property, is the Internet. Estimates vary, but it is estimated that approximately 80% of real estate home buyers use the Internet as part of their home search process. Mike’s marketing targets the Internet real estate buyers. Print ads (newspapers, magazines, etc.) are utilized by a small % of home buyers. Mike takes a simple approach to Internet advertising. He targets popular keywords and phrases that literally 1,000's of potential buyers of South Bay real estate are searching for. When Mike visits your property to determine it’s value, he shows you why these phrases were selected, and documents the number of “hits” these terms receive. He optimizes his web site for placement in the top 10 results on Google and Yahoo searches for these particular keywords (his website is usually listed in the top 5). This generates potential buyers for your property. On-line buyers see your property spotlighted in Mike’s listing section on his website, as well as the Shorewood Realtor web site, and the “Shorewood Listings” section of many individual Shorewood real estate agent sites. Potential buyers can also get pre-qualified for a loan, receive free reports, etc., at Mike’s site. It’s possible this system might have brought you to Mike’s website today.

See for yourself. Go to either “Yahoo.com” or “Google.com”. Type in any of the following phrases: “manhattan beach property” or “hermosa beach property” or “redondo beach property” or “palos verdes property” or “rancho palos verdes homes for sale”. On the search results page, look at the top 5 listings and look for the “www.MichaelDrotman.com” web address. Feel free to click on it. That’s Mike’s web site where your listing will be seen by 1000's of potential home buyers each month.

COLOR FLYERS - Color flyers are distributed to thousands of agents in Manhattan, Hermosa & Redondo beaches, the Palos Verdes Peninsula, and the surrounding areas. A massive flyer distribution is sent to agents within 3 business days of listing with Michael, and again within 2-4 weeks of your listing coming on the market. Color flyers are also distributed in flyer boxes at your property, which are seen by potential home buyers driving in your neighborhood, and your neighbors, who want to see how much their home is worth. Lastly, the flyers are distributed inside your home to potential buyers who have toured your property, as a reminder of the address, price, features, etc. of your home.

COMMUNITY EVENTS - Mike attends numerous events in the beach cities and Palos Verdes areas. Whenever possible, he uses these networking opportunities to speak to people regarding your listing.

FOLLOW-UP CALLS - All incoming Internet leads and sign calls on your property are followed up immediately. After every showing of your home, Mike calls the showing agent to get their client’s response to your home, and to overcome any objections their clients might have about your property. Mike tries to assist the other agent in writing an offer on your property.

ALL BUYERS ARE PRE-QUALIFIED FOR A LOAN - This assures you that the people Mike brings to your property - - - can afford to buy your property. If your property is sold by another agent, Mike follows up with their lender within one day of opening escrow, to make sure they are qualified.

THE COMPANY - Another important element to consider when listing your home, is the company behind the Realtor. Shorewood Realtors are the largest listing real estate offices in the beach cities. They are consistently ranked as one of America's top 100 residential real estate companies and in the top 10 in Los Angeles County by the Los Angeles Business Journal. Shorewood Realtors is the South Bay's oldest and largest independent real estate broker. They've been "The Sign of Success" serving thousands of people across the South Bay since the 1960’s.

AGENT RELATIONSHIPS - Mike's relationships working with other agents, and his reputation for CLOSING ESCROWS, motivates other agents to show, and sell, his listings.

MISCELLANEOUS MARKETING - Mike is constantly trying new, innovative marketing techniques to obtain the most exposure for your property possible. Other keywords / phrases will be added in the future to substantially increase the number of potential buyers who are aware that your home is available for sale.

We feel this is the most dynamic, aggressive marketing strategy offered today - - - designed to sell your home quickly, for top dollar, with minimal inconvenience to you! I look forward to working with you on the marketing of your home.
