Why We're Different

 

The SAND Group Realty Team of Steven and Nancy David offer our clients a distinct advantage!

 

We have over 25 years of combined experience in completing successful business and sales transactions. Prior to our real estate business we both worked as outside sales executives and account managers with national and global corporations. During our careers in the corporate world we each received numerous awards and recognitions for our achievements in sales performance. Some of the accounts we negotiated and closed included well know names such as Clear Channel Communications, Hewlett-Packard, Anadarko, and the Houston Astro’s.

From this experience in the corporate business world we have developed unique skill sets that bring value to our clients. We understand what it takes to get deals done and know how to create and implement specific tasks to reach our clients objectives. There are many components and strategies to negotiating successful real estate transactions. Effective communication is usually one of the most important components in a successful negotiation. The ability to adapt to various personalities and conversation types are key in reaching the desired results. Understanding how to ask open-ended questions to uncover what is really important to the other party can make all the difference.

All licensed real estate agents upload your property listing to the same MLS and advertise in the same online and print media.  Or for buyers, the agent finds property listings in all the same areas as the next agent. 

But there are some things that set us apart.  We don't look at the listing upload as just a data entry task.  It's much, much more.  That ad or listin description is the first impression to potential buyers for your property and it is important!  We carefully plan our ads and listing descriptions to target and attract buyers.  We know how to emphasize what's important, such as lifestyle or location.  Furthermore, it's important how your agent communicates, interacts, and negotiates with potential buyers, buyers agents, sellers and/or sellers agents.  Our professional communication skills, complemented with task management, customer account management, problem-solving, forward-thinking, and accountability are integrated into the services you receive with The SAND Group Realty Team!

If you are looking to buy or sell, please give us a call to learn more on how we can put our expertise to work for you to make your real estate dreams come true. We handle all the details professionally so you can enjoy the experience, and that’s REAL ESTATE THE WAY IT SHOULD BE!
