The Family Business
The Coffman Team has come up with a unique solution to the problem of finding time for both work and family - they combine the two! Real estate is truly the family business. Jan has worked full time in real estate for over twenty years, and now that she has teamed up with daughter Andrea, it is officially a family affair. Jan's parents and grandmother were also agents, so Andrea is the fourth generation to work in real estate. The business is in this family's blood.
The Greatest Praise
The Coffman Team is ranked in the top 1% of agents nation-wide, and has won numerous awards from various real estate organizations over the years, but the team does not count these awards and designations as their greatest achievements. The Coffman Team considers the fact that most of their business comes from referrals of satisfied clients as the highest praise they can receive. That their clients have entrusted the team with the real estate goals of their family and friends - there is no higher award. This is the family business in more ways then one. Jan has watched the children of her clients grow up, and gotten to help when it came time for them to purchase their first homes. And clients who have known Andrea since she was a little girl now work with her. The relationships built go beyond just business.
The Meaning of "Expert"
Buying or selling a home is one of the biggest events in someone's life. Of course, you want the process to go as smoothly as possible. It is a real estate advisor's experience that allows him or her to anticipate any bumps in the road, and to provide solutions. You can be confident that, after decades of experience, The Coffman Team will know the answers to your questions, and be able to offer alternative solutions to any problems that may come up.
Being active investors themselves, The Coffman Team knows that experience also counts when you are looking to purchase investment property. When you are trying to reach your financial goals, the last thing you need is an advisor who is relying on guesswork and theory. The team has helped many clients make profound changes in their financial lives through smart use of investment strategy. They have frequently helped investors from other countries, including Argentina, China, Singapore, Thailand, Peru, Brazil, Panama, Canada, Germany and France, and understand the complexities of international investing. Whether your investing needs are in 1031 exchanges, multiple-state investing, private financing, raw land or commercial, or if you need help determining what your investing needs are, The Coffman Team has the experience and knowledge to help you achieve your goals.
Another complex area of real estate is relocations. For years, companies such as BMW and Monsanto have turned to The Coffman Team to help their employees make international moves. Relocations, especially international ones, are some of the most complicated and document-heavy transactions in the industry. When you are moving your family across the country, or world, you have enough to worry about - you can trust that The Coffman Team has the knowledge and tools necessary to make your relocation go as smoothly as possible.
The Cutting Edge
The real estate market has a landscape that is constantly changing and advancing. The Coffman Team attends classes and seminars across the country to ensure that they are providing their clients with the latest and greatest in technology and marketing strategy. In addition to the newspaper ads and fliers that have become industry standard, The Coffman Team advertises their listings on customized websites and through the use of computerized telephone hotlines, Talking House radio transmitters and online marketing on over 200 sites. Advancements in technology don't stop, and the team will continue to research new and more effective ways to market your home.
A goal of The Coffman Team has always been to empower their clients to make the best and most informed decisions possible by providing them the most up-to-date and complete information at all times. That's why the team offers the SureClose program free with every transaction. With SureClose, you have 24/7 access to everything going on with your transactions, from feedback from showings to contract and escrow status. The Coffman Team never forgets that they are marketing YOUR home, and that you have the right to all the information regarding your transaction at your fingertips.
The Biggest Disappointment
If you want to elicit a groan of disappointment from the members of The Coffman Team, you just have to say, "I thought you only worked with high-end homes." It's a common misconception, and one that couldn't be farther from the truth. The team works with clients at all different points on their path to their financial goals. Jan and Andrea are homeowners and investors that were once first-time buyers, too. They understand that it's not where you are, but where you're going that's important. The Coffman Team got into this business because they believe in the ability of homeownership and real estate investing to change lives. When you put people before business, the little transactions are just as rewarding as the big ones.
