When searching for a real estate agent, the first thing you need to consider as a seller is: how do they market their existing listings? As for me, you can Google my name - Allison Van Wig - to see some of the inventive ways that I market my properties. I have proudly served the Long Beach and Lakewood communities for over 30 years. I am passionate about finding new ways to serve my client’s needs. As a seller, you need to have your property exposed in the best possible way. I recognize how each home must be showcased in its own unique way. As a buyer, you need an agent that knows their territory like the back of their hand. An agent that will find you the best home possible; one that fits your specific budget and meets all of your expectations. In conclusion … your choice of who you hire is a very personal one. Selling and buying a home is one of the most important financial decisions that you will ever make. If you want to make the best move of your life, let me work for YOU!
