Real Estate Networking

Hello Everybody. Just wanted to post real quick about how important real estate networking is. Recently I set up a facebook account an have been networking with many other Realtors from other states. Social Media is a very important part of our business, and very exciting way of making contacts and lead generating.  So far this has been a record setting year for The Incorvaia Team in this Shifting Market. I look forward to any of your comments, and any possible referral connections. What a great time to be in the real estate business. The correct practices today, are the one that will make agents excel even further when this market changes around! Stay tuned for many other real estate related topics!

Happy Memorial Day!

Happy Memorial Day to everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend, and had fun with all of your families. Please join us Tuesday May 27th at Meadows North Ct in Meadowood for a brokers open with lunch served. Meadows North is just off of priem rd in strongsville. Hope to see you all there!

Market Snapshot

It has been awhile since our last post, and we wanted to inform you of what has been going on in our market. If you are in the market to buy a new home, now is a great time! The interest rates are great, and prices on homes have never been better. There are so many reasons to purchase a home if you are renting. Most people who are renting can actually get a home for similar payments that they are making on their apartments currently. One Misconception most buyers have is that it costs money to use an agent to help them find their dream home. Yes, this is a fact, if you are a buyer you can take advantage of using a buyers agent to help you negotiate your deal for free. The way this is free to you, is that a buyers agent's commission is paid to them from the seller. Why wouldn't you want to have the experience on your side to help you get a great deal and make sure you have a smooth and easy transaction. The Incorvaia Team is here to help you!! Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.

Child Safety Fair at the Rec!

Thank You to everyone who attended the child safety fair at the strongsville recreation center. This was a huge success, and a great way for the children to learn about safety. There was a great ice cream eating contest for the kids, as well as a tour and explanation of the strongsville fire trucks. We hope all the children are using the compass keychains we handed out. We look forward to seeing everyone at the safety fair next year. We took multiple photos from the event and the link to view the photos is to the right above our picture. Enjoy!

Thank You!

Thanks to everyone who attended our broker's open in Strongsville today! We appreciate your support.

Brokers Open Tuesday March 18th!

Please join us tuesday March 18th for lunch at 17903 Chatham Ct in Strongsville. We will be hosting the brokers open from 11:00-2:00. This is a great way to get lunch, meet other agents and network. We hope to see you there!

The Market is Heating Up!

Just wanted to share that the market is heating up despite what you may hear. We have had a tremendous amount of showings on our listings over the past few weeks. There have been multiple offers on properties, and many accepted contracts. This is the best time to buy if you are in the market. Homes are priced very competitively, and interest rates are excellent now. New home builders are giving incentives across the board from what we have seen, and this is a great thing! First time homebuyers have an excellent advantage in this market, and really do have an opportunity to get a home now, that a few years back might not have been a reality.

Your Career Matters!

Our Company

Founded in 1983, Keller Williams Realty Inc. is an international real estate company with more than 600 offices located across the United States and Canada. The company began franchising in 1991, and following years of phenomenal growth and success, became the fourth-largest U.S. residential real estate firm in North America in 2006. The company has succeeded by treating its associates as partners and shares its knowledge, policy control and company profits on a system-wide basis.


Structured for Success

The interdependent business model of Keller Williams Realty supports agents and brokers working as a team to maximize personal productivity and company profits.
Most real estate companies operate on a dependent model where the broker provides leads to salespeople and then offers them a commission, or they operate on an independent model where agents receive minimal support from the broker but keep more of the commission. In contrast to these traditional models, the Keller Williams model fosters a synergistic environment where both parties succeed through teamwork, by encouraging agents and brokers to share their best practices with each other and reward associates who help the company to grow. It is these industry-changing philosophies that have fueled the recent growth of Keller Williams Realty past older, more established companies to claim a top-four spot in the real estate industry.
