Hello, I’m Pamela Sherpa from LAER Realty Partners, and I’m a closing manager. My job is to make sure your closings are successful. However, the thing that is most crucial to us is ensuring our clients are satisfied with our services. It’s always a great pleasure when past clients want to buy or sell again, or they want to refer us to someone they know.

So today I’m sharing the benefits of working with our team. We are a four-member team: Paul Brouillette, Maureen Kelly, Joanne Meridian, and me. We are all licensed real estate agents and work 160 hours a week prospecting, looking for buyers for our sellers, and searching for home matches for our buyers. When you have an appointment or showing, we’ll work around your schedule. Since there are four of us, someone is always available to assist you.

Paul is also in Business Network International, which means he diligently networks with business professionals every week and has been doing so for over 15 years. This means that whenever our clients need help from a plumber, electrician, painter, handyman, etc., we can call someone in our network, and they’ll be there to assist with whatever you need.

Additionally, we are part of a community of over 500 agents who share listings before they come onto the market, which is potentially a $1,000 to $10,000 savings for buyers in a seller’s market. In a seller’s market, information is valuable; if you know a house is coming onto the market, you can do a drive-by, and if you’re interested, you can schedule a showing and be ready to submit your offer immediately. On the flip side, we have at least 60 buyer leads coming in each week that we process, and any of them could lead to a showing or be a prospective buyer for our seller clients.

I could keep naming advantages to working with us, but what we truly want is to ensure our clients are happy with our service and attention to detail. We care about our clients, and we hope that comes through in our interactions with you.

If you have any questions about our team or how we can help with your real estate needs, call or email us. We would love to speak with you.

What a Listing Manager Does

Hello, my name is Maureen Kelly, and today I want to introduce myself and explain what I do at LAER Realty. I’m the listing manager on Paul Brouillette’s team, and it’s my job to work with Paul before a listing is taken all the way until it’s under contract, at which time it’s handed to our transaction coordinator, Pamela, who you can get to know here. Before a listing is taken, I look into the home’s area, history, comps, and more. Paul will compose a comprehensive market analysis, and I’ll help him gather supplemental materials that might be necessary for the house or client.

Once we take a listing, I meet or speak with the owners and set up a timetable that’s both comfortable for them and gives us enough time to prepare—this means ordering a sign, having a professional photography session, and having a professional stager assist with arranging the property for sale. The day the listing is launched, we’ll have a full package of marketing materials, photographs, etc., that are shared with the public. Once the listing is up, I’m in touch with the sellers at least once per week (often more), and send them a meticulous report explaining how things have been going, what we can improve upon, and more.

Everyone here works together and helps one another
with their duties, so though the above is my main job, it takes a team to sell homes on the professional level we do.

If you have any questions about my role or real estate in general, call or email us. We would love to help you.
