Recent Success Stories

Irvine Terrace, Corona del Mar

Before hiring The Smith Group, the sellers met with 5 other real estate agencies, all of whom told the sell-ers they would get no more than $6,000,000 for the house. Within 4 months, we listed and sold the prop-erty for 10% more than the sellers were ever told they would get, resulting in the highest sale in the neighbor-hood at $6,650,000.

Irvine Terrace, Corona del Mar

In June 2010, the property was sold for $4,200,000. In December of 2011, when Orange County real estate was down by 10%, The Smith Group listed and sold the home for $4,600,000 in 48 days for 10% more resulting in a 20% increase because of the down market.

Westcliff, Newport Beach

In November 2010, the property was sold for $1,500,000. Within 10 months, the average price per square foot dropped by 8% and the sellers realized they were going to suffer a signifi cant loss if selling. After agreeing to stage the home and follow our mar-keting plan, we were negotiating 3 offers within 1 week with the highest offer at $1,600,000.

1027 Dolphin Terrace

431 Avocado

1200 Nottingham

Cameo Shores, Corona del Mar

The home was previously listed for over 200 days with-out generating an acceptable offer. We listed the prop-erty, fi nished the landscaping and had the property staged resulting in an all cash offer 15% higher than any previous offer in just 80 days for $6,200,000.

Real People,Real ReviewsAfter nearly two years of marketing two luxury beach homes in Orange County, I hired Tim. I had worked with three other real estate brokers. I had also worked with two different auction companies. We did everything in our power to sell these homes with no success. I hired Tim, he very carefully analyzed the market and our homes. He understood our costs and fi ne fi nishes and wove an irrefutable message of value into his marketing and sales message. And, then he and his team went to work. They held several open houses weekly. They advertised. They called. They worked and sold. He sold one home within 60 days. The other home was sold within six months. He offered no excuses; just hard work and problem solving and he and his team sold the homes. Selling or buying real estate is diffi cult. In this tough market it’s the difference between success or failure—survival or casualty. If you are buying or selling real estate in Southern California, there is only one choice—Tim Smith and his very professional, competent team—The Smith Group.

– Seller, 49 Beach View & 15 White Water

“Your deep understanding of the real estate and economic situation positioned us to sell our Shady Canyon®

home in less than three months even though we listed the day after ‘the meltdown.’ You kept people coming through the door and made the sale happen!”

– Sellers | 12 Vernal Spring, Shady Canyon®

“During negotiation, you provided salient advice and guidance that was helpful in coming up with a mutually workable solution. Throughout the closing process, you kept us informed of progress and helped to make appropriate arrangements, always in consultations with us.”

– Buyers | 54 Archipelago, Newport Coast

“We will continue to use Tim Smith in all of our real estate transactions and are committed to referring him to buyers and sellers we know entering the market. In a diffi cult market it becomes apparent that the agent you choose to work with makes all the difference in selling homes. Tim Smith knows how to sell homes.”

– Sellers | 32351 Via Antibes, Monarch Beach

“I truly believe it was your excellent insight, relationships and negotiation skills that allowed us to purchase a bank owned property. It’s not easy to purchase a bank owned property, but you made it easy! Tim, we thank you. You and your team are the best!”

– Buyers | 28 Golden Eagle, Shady Canyon®

“The dedication, hard work, amazing negotiation skills and non-stop pursuit of The Smith Group is second to none. They never stop working for you. In addition to the professional expertise, the personal attention that we got from The Smith Group was unsurpassed. The ‘can-do’ attitude and genuine kindness has truly made The Smith Group ‘The Best in the Business!’”

– Buyers | 5 Redbird, Shady Canyon®

“Your dedication to marketing our home, holding open houses, following up with potential buyers and advising us throughout the process was invaluable. You guys really go the extra mile and that’s exactly what we were looking for when selecting a company to represent us.”

– Sellers | 310.5 Goldenrod, Corona del Mar
