Today we’d like to introduce you to Doug & Vinnie Silber.
Hi Doug & Vinnie, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Doug and I have been together for almost 22 years, have an amazing 5 year old daughter and 2 crazy dogs. We moved from NY 15 years ago to escape the cold and snowy winters and we have never looked back! We both come from careers that are customer service centered, so real estate was the perfect choice for us! When Doug started at Realty Professionals of Florida, he was awarded “Rookie of the Year” and over the past few years we have won “Million Dollar Top Producer”, each year. We share real estate responsibilities that meet each of our strengths but also work together to ensure everything is correct with each transaction.
For over 20 years, Doug and I have purchased and sold many of our own homes. There were positive experiences but also some negative ones during those purchases and sales. For example, we went under contract for a single family home based on a virtual tour and our realtors opinions. When we saw the home in person, there were many visible issues with the home that the realtor did not tell us about nor could be seen on the virtual tour. We relied on the realtor to be honest with us, but that did not happen. So when we became realtors, we promised ourselves that we would never let our clients experience the same issues and/or problems we had. That we would take on all that stress, concerns and worries so that our clients did not have to. As a result, we have built a strong relationship with our clients. We are honest and truthful, which they very much appreciated. This has resulted in return clients and great referrals.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Real estate is a fluid business, there are highs and there are lows. Fortunately, we have been very lucky and have had more highs than lows. In a field with many, many other realtors, you need to market yourself so that you stand out among the rest. This is an area we have worked hard to develop and grow.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Team Silber – Realty Professionals of Florida?
Team Silber works with both buyers and sellers. We especially enjoy working with first-time home buyers and helping them navigate the buying process! It can be overwhelming so we are there to shield them from any of the stress, frustration, etc. so that don’t have to. Team Silber is all about client first. We want to find the right house for them and not have them get into situations that might affect them after purchase or years down the road. Buying a home is a big purchase and needs to be handled carefully. Our motto is; Let Our Family, Help Your Family, Buy or Sell a Home. There are times our daughter has come with us while showing houses and have come to dinner with us and our clients. A few of our clients have told us that the reason why we were chosen as their realtor is because we market our family in our business.
What matters most to you?
What matters most to us is that our clients are completely satisfied with their purchase or sale! Not every house is perfect, but we do not want our clients to settle on a home that isn’t exactly what they are looking for. Unless it can be altered to their liking and they are excited about that. Plus, we want to ensure that our buyers are not spending more on a home than they can actually afford. Being house poor is not what we want for our clients. Also, we do not want our sellers to choose an offer that they are not convinced is the right one. We want them to know that they have options if they want to negotiate a contract and that we will fight for them to get the offer they deserve.
