ANNOUNCING: Chris Balestriere to Join Hanson Realty Group and William Raveis!!!

8/25/2017

With honor, and excitement, I am proud to finally announce the addition of Chris, to the William Raveis team, and to join Susan, Steve, Maria and I on our real estate journey.

The real estate world gets a bad reputation at times, unless you have been graced with a Realtor that works hard for you. That is why this announcement excites me--Chris brings a fresh approach to many things. More importantly, he is a model for what a Realtor should be, and brings the average of Realtors in Fairfield County up. That has always been our goal at Hanson Realty Group, and adding another able, competent, and diligent agent will keep us on top of Norwalk and Lower Fairfield County real estate.
Chris is coming into this business with an edge, due to his almost 18 months learning how to invest in real estate, with our business Blast REI.
​He is now an accomplished property manager, learned more than I know about managing the back-end of a business, and has become proficient in dealing with new clients, and bringing their transaction to a close.
Now he can take his approaches full-time to help anyone in the real estate world! He comes in with his own experience, and behind him, a team with over 40 years of real estate work in the TOP 5%, since 2002.
Over this weekend you will start to see our website, www.seenthensold.com (where you are reading this blog post), our Facebook Page, and other social networks transform to include Chris as part of the team. 
Hanson Realty continues to dominate the business in Lower Fairfield County, and Chris joining us cements our legacy. In 2016, our team sold over 17.5 million in real estate, or almost 40 transactions and over 20 rentals. The Group is on its way to surpass those totals in 2017.
Read more about him on the About Us Page, and feel free to reach out if you have questions.

8 Years of Real Estate > 17 Years of Schooling

​Entering real estate was an accident as many of you know—if you have ever asked me how it happened you might have heard my elevator pitch for the question, “How did you get into real estate?”:
  • I was involved in AllForLocal, a website my business partners and I created in college;
  • Without a fully-functioning website, we weren’t making money, so we all got part time jobs;
  • I was hired by a real estate appraiser who looked for a way to change the real estate climate in NYS and created a super-MLS and she needed someone JUST LIKE ME;
  • I got my real estate license with her advice, because ‘it is so easy’;
  • I left her (high and dry) to join my brother (Frank) in real estate in Fairfield County (my home). 
​I didn’t know this move would forge a path into a business that has taught me so much.
Well, what did I expect? I guess that is what makes a post like this worth it. Let’s lay the groundwork for how and why I have become effective and what my expectations were when I started—before getting the lessons that were 7/8 years in the making.

Listing Spotlight - 761 Den Rd, Stamford

8/14/2017

2 Comments

 
​​Important Details:
Property Address: 761 Den Rd, Stamford
Listing Price: $449,000
Status: CLOSED at $459,000, $10,000 above asking.
​
Bedrooms: 4  |   Bathrooms: 2   |   Square Feet: 1,561
Charming Cape  |  Hardwood Floors  |  Level Yard  |  North Stamford

Most of the major websites where we (Realtors) market our listings has one major flaw - the inability to hear the true story of a home, before a buyer enters the home. Here is that true story of 761 Den Rd, from my perspective.

​I am always pleased when I am able to list a home that is unique and unmatched in this real estate market. I say this because in North Stamford, under $500,000, there is nothing that can compare to 761 Den Road. Let’s visit it, together.
