On The Move With Signature Real Estate Finder! | | |
|
|
BIG things are happening in 2023 and the first big news is the arrival of our GIANT Signature Real Estate Finder MOVING TRUCK!
Before it ever hit the road in Boca Raton, we had customers reserving dates to use our brand new truck. Truck talk got around Boca so quick that we almost had January booked before 2023 even started!
| |
|
If you buy or sell a home with a member of the Signature Real Estate Finder Team, you will have the opportunity to use our truck! The truck has a ramp and a hand truck. To reserve the truck, please call or email 561-208-3334 or [email protected] with the requested date. Or just ask your favorite Signature Real Estate Finder agent!
When you use the truck, we will need copy of your driver’s license and your insurance card.
Let your friends and neighbors know about our truck and if they list with us, not only will they have the opportunity to use our truck, but so will you. Just make sure they tell us who referred them to Real Estate Finder.
If you see our truck on the road, snap a pic and post it and tag your us for a fun surprise! 🎁

February Featured Agent of the Month is Staci Lyn Garcia. In the first week of 2023, Staci closed $3,210,000 by representing a buyer and a seller in two unrelated real estate transactions.
“It was a great way to begin a new year!” said Staci. “It’s my seventh year in real estate and no two days are ever the same.”
| | | |
|
Staci Garcia is a second-generation real estate agent following in the footsteps of her mom, Barbara Weiner, who worked on-site at Boca West Country Club from 1986 to 2006.
Even though Staci lived in Boca Raton since 1986 and knew Boca better than anyone else, Staci never wanted to be a real estate agent because she saw how hard her mom worked around the clock and even though she made a boatload of money for a single parent, she was incredibly burned out by the customers.
In 2008, Staci knew Matthew as a good friend (both were the same age —50– and both are University of Maryland Terps) and awesome real estate agent. Staci referred so many customers to Matthew that he said she would have made A LOT of money if she had her license.
So, in 2016, Staci got her real estate license and went from referring customers to Matthew to actually listing her first house on the day she passed her real estate state exam. Over the last seven years, all of Staci’s customers have been friends, neighbors, and referrals to her from her self-built social sphere of influence.
She credits her own success to Matthew Maschler for being her cheerleader and to Team Awesome (The Real Estate Finder Team) for helping her every step of the way.
Staci is the mom three sons: Remy (19), Reese (18) and Rayden (16.5) Garcia. She also has two rescue husky mixes, Bolt and Laila, and a cat named Nayna, who walked in her house in 2016 and never left. They live in University Park Country Club Estates (directly across Glades Road from the Cheesecake Factory) and her specialty is No HOA. Her website is www.NoHOABoca.com

Dear Real Estate Broker,
I received a “lowball" offer on my house that was insulting. Should I even reply?
Yours Truly,
A Home Seller
| | |
|
Dear Home Seller,
Yes! Absolutely! While I know it is frustrating to receive a lowball offer on your house, as Michael Corleone said “It’s nothing personal, Sonny—it’s strictly business.”
Agents and Owners spend so much time preparing a house for sale, taking pictures, marketing the property, and when someone comes along and likes the house enough to make an offer, THAT is someone you want to respond to. To court. To TRY to make a deal with. Would you rather that no offer was made?
I can't tell you how many times I show a house to someone a second, third or even fourth time, only to result in no offer being made. Here you have an offer, and while the price is less than you wanted, what about the other terms? If the other terms work for you, let me, as your broker, do what you are paying me for and NEGOTIATE. This is a Buyer who likes your house and if you make a counter offer you might be surprised at what the result would be. The worst that happens is we can not get this Buyer under contract, but you did not lose anything by trying.
Regards,
Real Estate Broker
