How long have you been working in real estate?
Sarit: I have been in the business since 1997 and Jordan has been since 2009. I remember taking road trips with my dad in the early ‘70s as a little girl to purchase properties for development, so our exposure to the business runs deep.
What is it that makes you so passionate about what you do?
Jordan: I love that we get to be the guides for one of the most important decisions that our clients will make in their lives. We get the unique opportunity to be invited into people’s homes every day and their level of trust in us combined with the weight of the decisions often foster friendships that last a lifetime. Combine that level of intimacy with the strategic components of marketing a home, negotiating offers, and understanding construction and you have a pretty exciting and all-encompassing career!
What are the advantages of working with a family (mother/son) team?
Sarit: We have a perfect blend of knowledge and negotiation skills that truly benefit our clients. With over 40 combined years of experience, we are proud of our reputation in the Hamilton area and are completely devoted to our clients. I truly value getting to work with my son almost every day. We know each other’s strengths and weaknesses, and are fortunate that they seem to balance out almost perfectly. As a mother that gives me lots of quality time with my son, and for our clients that gives them an unrivaled level of service.
Is there a particular area you specialize in, either in terms of neighbourhoods, or types of homes, or perhaps the type of clients you like to work with?
Jordan: We get asked this question all the time! While consumers tend to think that we specialize in high end homes and the Western segment of Hamilton (Dundas, Ancaster, Flamborough, and West Hamilton) we truly enjoy working with clients in all areas of the city. From first time home buyers to seniors and from starter homes to multi-million dollar estate properties, the common thread in our business is that we like to work with clients that enjoy working with us!
In such a competitive market, with so many realtors, what do you offer your clients that you think makes a difference?
Sarit: I truly believe that we offer the complete package to our clients. I am often referred to as a “shark” in negotiations, yet our clients know me as a compassionate shoulder to lean on. I am also someone who studies all new listings and sales on a daily basis to ensure I have up to date information on the market. There’s an old cliche, “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know” – but our experience has taught us that, It’s what you know AND who you know! Our knowledge and experience goes a long way, in combination with our good working relationship with our peers, to ensure the best for our clients.
