Our Company and You A Dream Come True It’s been 31 years in the making...The DuPree Team brand. A team that has set the benchmark for real estate services in the South Florida area! Over the years Marta and Neil DuPree and their elite team has been nationally recognized for their legendary service, the quality of their marketing and their reputation for results. They have helped over 2,000 families with their real estate needs... many who had a lifestyle dream of owning homes in multiple areas, often in the mountains and the beach or desert. “Our mission is to ‘elevate the practice of real estate to an art form,’ and to deliver a real estate experience that is re-imagined and extra ordinary. By surprising and delighting our clients along each step of the way in their journey with us, we know that they will spread the word and our business will flourish.” Marta and Neil are passionate about real estate. You rarely get a second chance to do it right if not done well the first time. Putting your clients in the center of all decisions and serving them to the highest level is what it is all about. Real estate is not about selling “things”. Homes are not just bricks and mortar--- they’re a place where memories are made and dreams are realized. We realize how important our skills as a Realtor® are in helping other families live out their dreams. We know that real estate has very little to do with plat maps, tile work, and warranty deeds. Its more about the relationships that are formed along the way. We work hard to master the art of real estate and to give exceptional service. We want our clients to be absolutely confident that we will do everything we can to help them achieve their goals. If you are successful, we are successful.DuPree Team Luxury

Putting You in the Center of Everything We Do! The traditional model for real estate has one agent trying to be all things to all people. The general practitioner provides all of the necessary services alone, thus serving only a small number of clients at a time. This business model allows for limited service at its best. Our team structure for real estate places you, the client, in the center of our operation, with a specialist serving you during each phase of your real estate transaction.

The Process “From the very first phone call and beyond, we’ll show you we are committed to serving you 100%. Here’s what we do for you in preparation for your listing.”DuPree Team Luxury

The Preparation The Preparation Preview property. Prepare a detailed property description. this enables us to prepare the most effective brochures possible to market your property. Photography. If a picture is worth a thousand words, we think good pictures of your property are worth thousands of dollars. Prepare a market analysis and pricing strategy. One of the many ways we help you to arrive at a fair price for your property is to look at the prices of similar properties in your area that have sold as well as the current competition. We provide statistical data such as average sales- versus-list price percentages, average length of market time, seasonality of sales, location demand and a host of other factors that will help you arrive at the best market price for your property. Offer Suggestions to maximize your salability. Sometimes small changes make a big impact. Through our vast experience, we will give you advice on how to put your property in the condition it needs to be in to get a maximum sales price. Discuss financial options. Some of the offers you entertain may contain terms other than cash. We can explain how sometimes being creative and considering other options may be to your benefit.DuPree Team Luxury

The Preparation Gather all pertinent documents. These include floor plan, survey, deed restrictions, covenants, association declarations and by-laws, leases, property disclosures and more. We don’t wait until a contact comes in to get ready. We pull them all together in advance and have them readily available in our listing binders, so we don’t have to rush you when we have an interested buyer. Prepare an inventory of furnishings. If you include any furnishings with the purchase, we’ll complete an inventory for you. For contract purposes, having an inventory eliminates misunderstandings. Review Leases. If there is a long lease or nightly rental reservations are booked on your property, we coordinate with the tenants and property management company to determine occupancy or move out clauses as it affects the sale and possession. We then coordinate showing arrangements directly with tenants and guests. Obtaining mortgage information. We will know if your loan is assumable, and we will receive an approximate payoff. We will also provide you with an estimated Seller’s Net Proceeds Statement based on this information, at your request. Procuring Seller’s Disclosures. These are required by the State of Florida and will be your representation to the potential buyer as to the condition and the size of your property.DuPree Team Luxury

Preparing a listing book with all documents intact. We prepare a special binder, which is tabbed for every important aspect of the listing process. Our checklists and system ensure that nothing gets missed. Making extra keys. We always keep a spare in our office to give access to agents, appraisers, inspectors, and other professionals required. Install electronic lockboxes (when appropriate). Our lockboxes provide maximum security for our Sellers. Placing a yard sign and installing a 24 hour hotline rider. When signs are permitted, we attach a 24 hour hotline rider that allows buyers to obtain access to the pricing details of your home. Handling all showings with care. We call you in advance for all showings and will work around your schedule if you have specific instructions about the showing of your home.DuPree Team Luxury

The Strategy “When you hire us, we will immediately get to work implementing our strategic market plan to sell your property.” The Strategy Team marketing— Most Realtors rely on the “4P’s of Marketing”... Put an ad in the paper. Put it in the MLS. Put up a sign. Pray. It’s our opinion that if a sign and an ad in the paper would sell your property, you wouldn’t need us at all. These things are a given and have nothing to do with creating excitement in the marketplace about your property. When you hire a Listing Broker, you expect a professional marketing plan of action and the ability to achieve results. We prefer to use a laser sharp approach, where we determine who the most likely Buyers are for your property and target the majority of our efforts to attract those particular Buyers.DuPree Team Luxury

The Exposure “We believe that effective marketing encompasses many different mediums. While our print marketing continues to be nationally recognized and acclaimed, we are acutely aware that the changing consumer now demands high tech along with high touch” Print Marketing— High Touch Consumers in the marketplace still prefer to touch and feel print marketing, especially when they are in the market to buy... and especially if it survives the 3-second rule (does not hit the trash can upon first glance). The print marketing created by the DuPree Team is in a class of its own and is often copied by others. We take real estate marketing seriously.DuPree Team Luxury

High Touch Here is a Sample of Our Marketing Materials: Professional Property Brochures. The quality of our marketing is known and appreciated through North America. Our standard for luxury listings is now a generous 8-page brochure and we often create 12-page brochures for our larger homes. It details and highlights all of the finishes, behind the scenes technology, and special features of your property. This allows the buyer to see all the “added value” items they might not otherwise know about. Advertisements in The Parklander and City News Magazines. Monthly advertisements in The Parkland and City News magazines are created monthly and feature pictures and details of over 20 of our listings. The Parklander mails directly to over 17,750 and The City News mails to 20,000 homes and businesses in your area to get the local attention you need!DuPree Team Luxury

Realtor Marketing Here are some of the ways we tap into the power of our fellow co- brokers, ensuring maximum exposure: We submit your property into the Multiple Listing Service, and follow up with daily ebroadcasts and electronic brochures. This gives the other 40,000 members of the 7 different Boards of Realtors® in the South Florida area all the information they need to sell your property. Networking with fellow agents. We not only “talk your property up” to other agents, but we host open house events with lunch and door prizes to encourage attendance. This provides an easy opportunity for agents to preview your property, which increases the likelihood that it will be shown and sold. Marketing your property constantly to our top selling Brokers. Our “Premier Broker” are agents who are the most active in our marketplace and most likely to assist us in your sale. Our Premier Broker program offers added benefits such as 24/7 “back door” access to showing instructions, customized marketing materials and perks for showing our listings.DuPree Team Luxury

Public Promotion Public Promotion We believe “word of mouth is the best advertising.” Here is how we get the word out: We hold Broker Open Houses. On occasion we will host open houses around special events in peak season. We talk to the neighbors. We send out property brochures to surrounding home owners announcing your home on the market. Neighbors are often our best source of referrals. We talk to our Buyers. Through our Buyer Profile System we contact qualified Buyers in our extensive database, local MLS system, and national referral networks. We network through vital community organizations. We feel that it is important to give back to the community and in doing so we often make friends who help us promote our properties and services.DuPree Team Luxury

The Negotiations The Negotiations— What Happens When an Offer Comes In? Through more than three decades of experience and over 2,000 families served, Marta and Neil DuPree, their buyer specialists, and the Keyes Company have a wealth of experience and strength to bring to the negotiating table. Here is what we do you when offers are submitted on your property: Qualified and counsel serious Buyers and their agents towards a decision and provide answers to countless questions or technical matters. Evaluate and offer an objective, third party opinion when contracts are presented. We will highlight the positive and negative aspects of the contract and make specific recommendations for structuring the contract in your best interest. Advise that, as long as there are contingencies remaining on your contact, with your permission, we will continue to show the property. We always look to bring in a backup offer whenever possible.DuPree Team Luxury

The Listing Process During the Listing Process Communication is Vital Communication is an area where many Realtors® fall short. In surveys conducted by NAR (National Association of Realtors®), lack of communication from their agent was the #1 complaint from Sellers. We are committed to being proactive in the listing process through systems and our team service. Here are the ways we communicate with you: We make personal calls to obtain feedback from all Realtors® that show your property and send monthly reports to you via email to let you know your homes’ strengths and weaknesses. This provides opinions and suggestions from other Realtors in the area and comments from potential Buyers who view your property. We keep you informed through a monthly report called a “Seller’s Update”. It includes a summary of the showing feedback, a synopsis of the market activity, a current market analysis of your area, links to internet marketing, advertisements, marketing action planned and our comments and recommendations for any changes that need to be made in the market strategy of your property. We transmit this, either electronically or by mail...however you want it.DuPree Team Luxury

Overpricing Be Wary of Overpricing— Here’s What Happens: The wrong prospects look at the property, if any at all. People not only buy in price ranges, they also look in price ranges. Cooperating Realtors don’t want to lose creditability with their buyers by showing overpriced listings. Cooperating Realtors know from experience that fair offers on overpriced properties are often rejected. Buyers are often embarrassed to make offers considerably below the list price. The property may become overexposed and shopworn. Cooperating Realtors and potential buyers begin to assume there is something wrong with the property. Even subsequent price reductions do not regain the lost market. Many qualified buyers who inspect overpriced listings decide at that point to eliminate the property from consideration, now and in the future. When buyers see that a property has been on the market for a long period, they assume they can get a bargain. Extremely low offers are likely. Overpriced properties help sell those properties which are more competitively priced. While overpriced properties may eventually sell, they usually sell for less than if they were priced competitively priced when first offered for sale. Solution: Price Competitively.DuPree Team Luxury
