Selling Real Estate

Why Sell With the French Team?

Because you'll enjoy the advantages of both a large, national corporation and a small, locally owned business.

The French Team at Kinlin Grover/GMAC offers you the advertising budget of General Motors, who is putting their financial strength behind their real estate venture. Kinlin Grover is the number one office on Cape Cod in both number of sales and dollar volume...we sold 15% in Barnstable County, while our nearest competitor sold 6% (in the first half of 2008). There are now 275 agents in 14 Cape Cod offices working hard to promote your property.

Because we carry the most listings in the area, we attract the most buyers...we carry a buyer pool of almost 2,000 customers.

Our buyers are more qualified buyers because they're better informed. They receive regular phone calls, mailings, and automated emails from us telling them of new listings. We have a buyer specialist whose job is to match our listings with buyers - any buyers, and this means other agents', too. Agents from our office do open houses, they tour all of our new listings right away - so that you will get a greater amount of exposure with us.

We place our listings on multiple websites. Many of our sales are due to a strong internet presence.

Your property will be enhanced on realtor.com, the most frequently visited site in the country. It will appear on the national GMAC site, on our local site (kinlingrover.com) and on the French Team's site. In addition, it is featured on the MLS-linked site (thefrenchteam.com), which so many of our buyers use for their searches.

Whenever possible, we use multiple photographs and virtual tours to highlight your property.

The team approach enables us to give you personal, professional attention.

The team includes Todd French, listing agent and team manager; his sister Jessica French Burt, office manager; and Ken Hager, who works with both buyers and sellers. By freeing up the agent's time from the basic tasks inherent to real estate, the team approach allows your property to get the attention it deserves. Whenever you call the office you know someone will be there. Likewise, when a buyer calls about your property, you know someone will be there, too. This is why so many people have entrusted us with the sale of their property. We're top producers in our area, having sold over $300 million worth of real estate to date. In a business when anything could happen at any time, that experience can put dollars in your pocket. We get more experience in a year than most agents get in a career.

Our specialists allow us to go far beyond the typical marketing spectrum. You get 3 people working for you for the price of one!

We have a Buyer's agent and Seller's agent available at a moment's notice. The benefit to your will be felt through the ease with which you will be guided through the process. Their strengths will show not only through their organization and availability, but also through the team effort to market your house. What the French Team offers you is a small, intimate office, focused on your listing. We also bring you the budget, exposure, and market dominance of the largest company on Cape Cod.

We have been among the top five agents (out of 2,000) on Cape Cod for the past 10 years. Past success isn't a guarantee of future success, but what else can you go by?

Agencies come and go over the years. The French Team knows that their reputation relies on everything they do. When you speak with French Team customers and clients, they will tell you that the reason they have such an outstanding reputation is their follow through and professionalism. The French Team has consistently been in the top ten of the Cape's 2,000+ agents. Their reputation has helped them build an extraordinary pool of nearly 2,000 buyers, many of whom are just waiting for the right property to come on the market.

You benefit from the experience we have gained by closing over 1,100 sales.

We also offer you name recognition and trust that comes with a family owned business that has been synonymous with Cape Cod Real Estate for 18 years. Although the name of the office has changed, for each of those 18 years, the team has been in the same office, offering the same consistent attention to their clients. The average agent's list price to sale price ratio was 95.36 percent. The French Team's was 97 percent!

We work with special needs groups and make a contribution from every sale to the Noah Shelter for the Homeless.

A commitment to the Cape community has been a philosophy of The French Team since its inception. We participate in walks for cancer research, the local homeless shelter, we volunteer in the local soup kitchen, and we have an annual yard sale to benefit the Noah Shelter - we've raised $50,000 in cash for causes fighting Cape Homelessness. Of course, we donate a portion of our fee from each sale to the Noah Shelter.

We're on top of the trends.

Our state-of-the-art technology includes a virtual tours, digitally enhanced photos, email newsletters to customers, weekly emails of our listings to prospects, youtube video tours, an automatic voice response service that provides a recorded description of your house to customers who are interested, and automated fax listing sheet, or direct connection to our office.

Above all, we want to make the sale of your house a pleasant, profitable experience.

So give us a call at 508-896-8500, x139. At no obligation, with no sale pressure, and with a brief visit to your home, we'll prepare a Comprehensive Market Analysis that will let you know how much your house is worth. Whether you're ready to sell today, or just want to get an idea of your property value, this can be valuable information for any homeowner. We look forward to talking with you.
