Marva McCartyASSOCIATE

I love being a REALTOR! I can't wait to get to know buyers & find out what they're looking for & then go out & find the right home for them. The absolute highlight for me is handing them the keys. I love working with sellers too. Working with them to make their home attractive to the greatest number of buyers, pricing it right, then implementing my "Find the Buyers" 12 step marketing plan to get their home in front of as many potential buyers as possible is one of the most exciting processes in real estate. I love making the call to say "We have an offer!" I then take off my marketing hat & switch into my power negotiating mode to get the most advantageous terms for the seller. I've got the best support team following up to make sure every detail is followed up on & handled in a timely & professional manner until closing. I love the variety of situations that arise in this business & love finding win-win solutions to issues that may arise. I also am a big advocate of continuing education & take advantage of educational opportunities that will help me to be a more knowledgeable & competent REALTOR. I'm on the Board of Trustees for the Urbandale Library. I strive to follow the six pillars of character promoted by Character Counts: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship.

    2011 was not an easy year in which to sell a house. Marva was very helpful in getting the house ready to show and in closing the deal when an offer was made. She was pleasant to work with and responsive. Cora hayes

    Marva had our house up for sale for nine days. We had lots of activity and two offers. The 2ND offer was our asking price and that made the deal. She is very knowledgeable and honest. We had worked with Marva before and will continue working with her. We highly reccomend her to sell your house or to help you find your home.

    Helped me find tenant for rental
    Helped us rent our home for 3 years while we lived out of state. She did a great job screening renters, collecting fees, and caring for our home. She is a great property manager and an even better real estate agent. Once we decided to sell our home, she helped us stage and sell the home in about 20 days.

    Helped us sell our home within 3 weeks of listing. We had attempted to sell previously for months without any success. A great agent to have on your side.
