ROBYN & MATT WEBBIn today’s low inventory market, many say getting a house sold is easy. Getting a purchase price beyond your expectations, in a market still weighed down by distress sales – that’s where skill, expertise and innovation matter. Robyn and Matt Webb, of OC Real Estate 411, are bringing a business approach to real estate. These two Broker/Owners are putting their USC MBAs to work and offering home sellers a unique approach to listing their home for sale.

The Webbs’ “Design To Sell” concept offers homeowners a “mini-makeover” on their home, leveraging the Webbs’ extensive experience in remodeling and home staging. Their services are likened to those of a General Contractor and Interior Designer, and are included in the cost of their listing commission. What’s more, they tie their commission directly to the results on the sale of your home, giving the homeowner pure upside.

In addition to their marketing background, both Robyn and Matt came from technology jobs in the corporate world prior to starting their real estate business in 2004. “We know that over 90% of buyers are using the Internet to look for homes. We are using cutting-edge technology and innovative internet marketing to assure our clients’ homes get massive exposure and a strong buyer response,” Matt says.

From a business perspective, OC Real Estate 411 shows homeowners a definitive return on investment, not just for the improvements to their homes, but for the commission paid as well. “Whether a client has $500 or $20,000, we will show them a significant return on our investment. We strive to exceed expectations, and deliver “Disney-like” service,” Robyn adds.

“OC Real Estate 411 is a top-notch company, but even more than that, Matt and Robyn are terrific people. They are

genuine and caring people that we now consider among our best friends, and that is one of the highest recommendations that we can provide,” share Heather and Brent Barbour of San Clemente.

MARK GREENSavers Home LoansYou may have a friend in the mortgage busi-ness and not even know it! Mark Green of Savers Home Loans in downtown San Cle-mente works to simplify the often confusing and frustrating process of applying for and closing on a loan. A proud graduate from the University of Oregon, he set up shop in South OC 24 years ago to specialize in residential lending. Green says he’s proud to be “the loan guy” because he enjoys “getting families into houses.” Along with his wife Helen, who manages operations and a staff of loan officers and processors, Green has enjoyed watching thousands of buyers achieve their homeownership dream and has saved borrowers countless dollars through refinancing existing loans.

As a mortgage broker, Mark is able to serve his customer’s interests by having a variety of products at his fingertips. On the wholesale side, he can secure 20 quotes from financial institutions in minutes to determine which option is most appropriate and cost-effec-tive. He operates on an old-fashioned, but

proven business philosophy: provide superior service at a competitive price. Mark’s straight-forward and honest approach has proven suc-cessful. He and his staff go into each loan with an agreement and close the loan as promised. This transparency and Savers Home Loans’ discounted pricing structure explain the lon-gevity of the business—even through the eco-nomic roller coaster ride of the last decade.

Savers Home Loans also specializes in secur-ing H.A.R.P. (Home Affordable Refinance Pro-gram) loans for customers who are underwater on their current mortgages and whose loans closed prior to June 1, 2009. This government-sponsored relief program is designed to pro-vide a more stable mortgage for struggling borrowers and even has implications for home-owners with equity who fear that they won’t qualify for traditional refinancing.

Check out SaversHomeLoans.com to learn more about the limited-time H.A.R.P. pro-gram and other mortgage alternatives. This “frustration-free zone” is packed with useful

information and tools for comparing and educating yourself on one of the most important purchases you’ll make. Mark believes that an informed custom-er is the best customer and strives to make the loan process easy and to perform his job with integrity.

NATALIE VIZIRThe remarkable success of Natalie Vizir may be attributed to any number of factors. The concierge service and superb market knowl-edge reflect her uncompromising approach to business. “I believe, with a passion, in do-ing what you love,” asserts Natalie.

Natalie transitioned into real estate after es-tablishing a 20+ year successful corporate ca-reer with HP. With incredible diligence and an unwavering focus, she thrived in challenging and demanding executive roles, received nu-merous professional awards and was selected to be in HP’s executive leadership academy. She capitalized on the opportunity to take early retirement to build her own business. “I’ve been interested in houses since I was a child,” she reveals. “Real estate was always something I believed in.”

She interviewed several companies, and dur-ing the process, she remembered having a chance encounter with the CEO of Century 21 on a flight to the East Coast. Impressed with Natalie’s professionalism and drive, he arranged for her to meet one of the leading

real estate organizations. In 2009 she delved into the world of real estate with her trade-mark assiduousness. She was involved in the company’s record-breaking 2012 New-port Beach transaction, which ranked as the company’s highest-ever residential closing. Working with out-of-state buyers with a very particular list of criteria, Natalie negotiated an $8 million home purchase with an impressive 7-day escrow.

While her concierge level of service is ap-preciated by her high-end and luxury home clientele, Natalie notes that every individual with whom she works is privy to her top-notch care. From first-time buyers to savvy investors, she offers exceptional representation, skillful negotiation, and strategic and comprehen-sive marketing strategies. Natalie is known in the industry to help sellers get record break-ing prices for their homes.

She has earned top-producer status for her efforts, and while industry accolades are the benchmarks by which many real estate agents measure their progress, she notes that her

business is driven by people, not numbers. “It’s great to be recognized and to earn awards, but what truly motivates me is the opportunity to assist people,” offers Natalie. Natalie wants clients to enjoy positive experiences, to obtain incredible properties, and to maximize the returns on their sales.

She has obtained her Broker’s License, and is cur-rently working at RE/MAX Signature Services.
