Top Producers, November 2020

Wow! When we were first facing the reality of the pandemic, time felt like it came to a standstill and oftentimes dragged out slowly while we waited with baited breath for “what was next”. By extreme contrast, the last few weeks of 2020 have seemingly whizzed by in the blink! It’s pretty safe to say that we are all incredibly grateful to see this odd and obstacle-laden year come to a close. 

We are, of course, very lucky that real estate had suffered only a temporary hit, rather than what we feared in the beginning of this epic change. Since then, what we have witnessed amongst some of our Broker/Owners at Help-U-Sell Real Estate has been nothing short  of impressive. For November, we are seeing the fruits of labor from those who have fine-tuned their game to accommodate the changes foisted upon us as a result of covid-19. These numbers make it tough to tell they were even working outside of normal circumstances!

Jack Bailey

In first place is Jack Bailey and his team at Help-U-Sell Greensboro in North Carolina with 18 sides (an even nine and nine split). Jack’s office runs like a well oiled machine – and being perpetually in the top three on our Top Producers list proves it.

Debra Schmidt takes second place for the second month in a row with the help of her team at Help-U-Sell Heritage Real Estate of Steele County in Owatonna, MN. They closed 14 houses for November, and we suspect this office will make our top ten for the year. 

Third place goes to Mario Ferrante and his team at Help-U-Sell Metropolitan in Woodhaven, Michigan. With 12 sides for the month, he remains a top contender for the year.

On our Gross Sales Volume report, Patrick Wood from Help-U-Sell Prestige Properties in Chino Hills, California has sprung into first place after alternating between second and third for much of the year.  Patrick’s team closed $7.8M in sales for November.

Jack Bailey swoops into second place with his team from  Help-U-Sell Greensboro in Greensboro, North Carolina. While number one for sides, coming in second meant closing nearly $4M is sales. 

In third place is Ed and Julie Wright of Help-U-Sell Wright in Aliso Viejo, CA. The subject of a Broker/Owner profile last year, this dynamic husband and wife duo closed November with $3.5M in sales, proving they are stronger together.

November is when we traditionally look around and count our blessings as reasons to be thankful. We rightfully count important things like the health and happiness of loved ones, a stable home and income, and peace within and with others. It’s also a good time to recognize traits that are easy to overlook as blessings: resilience, ingenuity, determination, kindness, honesty, and goodness. Stuff that makes for great real estate professionals, and great people in general. Thanks to all of you for demonstrating those things.

October 2020 Top Producers

October is always a month of transitions. The last few sparks of summer roar through the early weeks of the month, while the spikes of winter lurk closely behind, with the gorgeous leaves of change gracefully marking middle. One thing stayed consistent throughout: our Help-U-Sell Broker/Owners blazed a trail and continued to demonstrate that 2020 wasn’t going to stop them from selling and buying homes for all of our valued clients.

Coming in first for the first time this year: one of our men in Michigan! Jeff Hedberg of Help-U-Sell Real Estate Masters in Port Huron and his team closed 18 sides in October alone. Our guess is he makes the top ten for 2020, too!

In second place is Debra Schmidt. Her team at Help-U-Sell Heritage Real Estate of Steele County closed with 15 houses being bought and sold in a single month – all in Owatonna, MN. This works out to 4.1 sides a week. Very well done. 

Our other man in Michigan secures third place. Mario Ferrante of Help-U-Sell Metropolitan in Woodhaven, MI, stakes out 14 sides with his team. Since Mario is a near-constant top producer, we’d love to have him be a future broker profile subject.

In seventh through eleventh place, a sea of ties all with seven total. That seems lucky!

Richard Cricchio

The Gross Sales Volume report shows a staggering $7 million in sales for Richard Criccio of Help-U-Sell Honolulu Properties. The top spot here is often where we can find him and his team, and October just re-confirms what we know about the Honolulu market: always hot!

Having shown up first on our sides report, it makes sense to see Jeff Hedberg of Help-U-Sell Real Estate Masters in Port Huron on the GSV report. $3.5 million in sales divided by 18 sides works out to an average $196,000 per side. In other words: crushing it.

Third place was won by a margin of just $31,960! Lona Murphy at Help-U-Sell Select Real Estate in Eugene, OR has been showing us that small office model works just fine. She is the very definition of a mover and a shaker and is a showstopper.

For the first time, the Gross Sales Volume report goes “up to eleven” (for you Spinal Tap fans). It seemed pertinent to include every office that nailed down over $2 million in sales for October alone.

Keep on shining through the holiday season. Your determination continues to be an inspiration.

July Top Producers 2020

July turned out to be a bit of a scorcher for more than weather-related reasons. The Top Producers list for July 2020 has revealed a decent uptick in activity from a slower summer due to Covid-19. Why? Quite simply: lack of inventory created fast sales.

With many sellers still hesitant to take a chance to pick up and move, coupled with the looming uncertainty of job instability and the economy, the houses that are being put on the market are being snapped up very quickly. That urgency is reflected in our July report.

Back at the top of our list is Mario Ferrante of Help-U-Sell Metropolitan in Woodhaven, MI. Bringing in a total of 16 sides for the month, it would seem many of his sellers took advantage of the hot market to make a quick sale. 

Coming in just two sales shy of first place is Debra Schmidt and her team at Help-U-Sell Heritage Real Estate of Steele County. Keeping busy in Owatonna, MN, Deborah’s team was a close second with a total of 14 sides.  

  • Jack Bailey

In third place for July is a tie between Jack Bailey’s team at Help-U-Sell Greensboro in NC, and Matt Kellam of Help-U-Sell Keystone Realty in Chambersburg, PA. Both offices close out July with 11 total sides.

Of course, we always have more ties than we know what to do with. Karen Detweiler of Help-U-Sell Detwiler Realty in Carlisle, PA and Kimber Regan of Help-U-Sell The Smart Choice in Hanford, CA brought in ten sides each.

It’s nice to see the sizzle in summer!

Richard Cricchio

On our Gross Sales Volume report, who else would we find in our number one spot but Richard Criccio of Help-U-Sell Honolulu Properties. His team continues to dominate the top spot with $5.4 million in sales for the month of July. 

Second place lands at the doorstep of Patrick Wood of Help-U-Sell Prestige Properties in Chino Hills, California. His team closed $4.6 million in sales. 

Jack Bailey

In third place is Jack Bailey of Help-U-Sell Greensboro in Greensboro, North Carolina with $2.7 million for July.

Although there has never been a tie in our Gross Sales Volume report, and likely never will be, having three offices rank with $70,000 of one another is likely as close as we ever get. Still really cool, though.

April 2020 Top Producers

Welcome to the April edition of our Top Producers report. We hope that this message finds you and your loved ones healthy throughout the quarantine. 

With many of the states slowly easing up on the restrictions, we are pleasantly surprised to see the numbers posted in light of the lockdowns. We have shared several articles on the naturally downward numbers of spring home sales, and it’s nice to see that the alternative methods put in place did not create  much negative impact on the numbers our Broker/Owners were able to achieve.

In our top spot with an impressive 14 sides for the month, is Patrick Wood and his team at Help-U-Sell Prestige Properties, from Chino Hills, CA. Patrick’s team had an incredibly productive month with nine home sales and five buyers on the board. Clients were clearly able to adapt. 

In second place from Yuma, AZ, is Mike Bowling, and his team at Help-U-Sell Mike Bowling. Also having a very strong month with ten sales, Mike’s team had eight buyer sides and two seller sides. With Mike’s extensive background in real estate marketing, he has been a regular staple on this report since he joined us in January of last year.

Third place is a tie, of course. Jack Bailey and his team from Help-U-Sell Greensboro, in Greensboro, NC and Debra Schmidt and her team at Help-U-Sell Heritage Real Estate in Owatonna MN, both had seven for April, with precisely five sellers and two buyers each.

The top ten list once again gets extended to 11, because of another tie. Kimber Regan of Help-U-Sell The Smart Choice, Karen Detwiler of Help-U-Sell Detwiler Realty, and Maria Powell from Help-U-Sell Galleria Realty all closed the month of April with four sides.

It is heartening and inspiring to see your efforts paying off in these strange times. Congratulations to all of you and your respective teams.

Here on our Gross Sales Volume report, naturally we find Patrick Wood of Help-U-Sell Prestige Properties taking the lead with $7.5 million in sales. When one also has a month that included 14 transactions, it’s not surprising to be first place here also. A huge virtual high five to Patrick’s team.

In second place is perpetual eagle, Richard Cricchio of Help-U-Sell Honolulu Properties, closing the month at $4.1 million. 

Third place brings a new face! Melissa Chan, Broker/Owner of Help-U-Sell Alpha Paladins Realty. Located in San Jose, California, her  office cleared $3.7 million for April, and she nearly made our side’s list also! We are definitely hoping to see more of her here over the summer.

Lastly, it’s worth mentioning the fun fact that six of the offices that made our Sides list also showed up on our Gross Sales Volume list – which is twice the cause for celebration. Cheers, everyone! Please have a safe, happy, and fun Memorial Day weekend, and our thanks and reverence as always to honoring anyone who has served our country and does so today.

Top Producers 2020 Q1

The first quarter of 2020 started with the bang of New Year’s Eve and closed with a question mark for March, where we asked, “Now what?”

Our Help-U-Sell Broker/Owners supplied their own answers and landed in our Top Producers Quarter 1 report.  

There is something reassuring about looking at this list and recognizing that no matter what’s going on in our nation and communities, that our Help-U-Sell Broker/Owners are continuing to make a strong showing, both in daily efforts to aid clients and also still making impressive dents in sales numbers.

First place for the quarter is a tie between Debra Schmidt of Help-U-Sell Heritage in Owatonna, MN, and Patrick Wood of Help-U-Sell Prestige Properties in Chino Hills, CA. Both offices close the quarter with 28 total sides.

Standing alone in second place, is Mike Bowling with Help-U-Sell Mike Bowling in Yuma, Arizona. Mike’s team brought in 23 total sides for the quarter. 

Jeffrey Hedberg of Help-U-Sell Real Estate Masters in Port Huron, MI and Jack Bailey of Help-U-Sell Greensboro in North Carolina round off 3rd place with 22 sides per office.

Fourth place gives us yet one more tie between David Bartels of Help-U-Sell Full Service Realty in Westlake Village, CA , and Richard Criccio of Help-U-Sell Honolulu Properties. 

All in all, something to be proud of. Your drive to succeed is a force to be reckoned with.

Over here on Gross Sales Volume report, we have our “Frequent Flyers” in the top three.

Patrick Wood of Help-U-Sell Prestige Properties in Chino Hills, CA, clears first place by a landslide amount (no, that’s not a California-based joke). Ending Q1 with $17.6 million in sales places Patrick and team in a great starting position for the year. 

Richard Cricchio

Richard Cricchio of Help-U-Sell Honolulu Properties and his team brought in $13.1 million and take second place for the quarter. His team of eagles are always soaring around these lists. 

Naturally, David Bartels makes an appearance with his team at Help-U-Sell Full Service Realty in Westlake Village, CA. They cleared $12.6 million in sales.

You may have noticed that this list includes 11, and that was intentional. Anybody capable of clearing over 3 million in sales for the quarter when that quarter includes the holiday season and a pandemic, they deserve to be saluted for that success.
