When we decided to sell that home in 2008 the Carmel market was suffering from the national financial crisis. There was literally no mortgage money available for any high end home. You demonstrated a commitment and a persistence that is uncommon. You devised a plan to market a relatively high priced home at a time when nothing was selling in Carmel especially high end homes. You hired a firm to stage our home in a way that presented it in the best light. You and your photographer took photos that reflected all the time and attention we put into the home. You and your videographer created a video that truly showed the design, the quality and even the Point Lobos views of our home. You and your amazing team went out of your way to maximize the exposure of our home to those brokers who represented high end cash buyers.
Judie and her team have the strong experience and deep connections with the potential buyers of high end properties. This expertise resulted in quick and financially successful transactions in each and every engagement with us. We think that her success with our projects has everything to do with her personal attributes, which include exceptional high energy, charismatic personality, strong attention to detail, and excellent negotiation skill sets. In addition, she has assembled a competent support team that can facilitate all aspects of the marketing of these specialized properties.
We have both bought and sold many properties: commercial, residential, and residential income. I can say without qualification that Judie is the best REALTOR® of all that we have had over the past 30 years. The thing that we have learned over time is that she is extremely respected in the community as well as the real estate community which is important when working with a listing agent.
One of Judie's special skills is her ability to negotiate and see the complete picture, on both the buying and selling side of the equation. While I have had many opportunities to work with some skilled business development leaders and negotiators while being the CEO/President/COO of a number of companies, I would easily rank Judie in the top tier of folks I would rely on to deliver the best results.
After a year, we decided we needed to contact Judie. Not only did she respond immediately to get a meeting scheduled, we could not believe the amount of research she had done in the 24-hour period from phone call to meeting. We were equally surprised and very pleased by the strategic plan she laid out during this meeting and the marketing resources she would be using to reach the buyers that would truly be interested in our home. As a result, we had signed a contract in 45 days which was on target for what she had anticipated.
Judie and her team work hard and are diligent in making sure every step of the process is professionally handled to the highest standards possible, so her clients never have to worry about anything. When selling a home Judie and her team are recognized for their excellence and excel in knowledge, service and actually getting the job done.
It has been my great professional and personal pleasure to work with Judith Profeta as my Listing Broker on four projects, totaling over $20m in value. Judie is exceptionally knowledgeable, professional, diligent, honest and responsive. As the head of investments for North Point, I consider Judie to be a tremendous advocate and true business partner.
