Cristal Drake’s Summary

Technology Backed By Service!
Customer service, area knowledge and extensive marketing are key elements for an effective listing. My experience and “Maximum Exposure” marketing plan includes an extensive internet marketing campaign and networking with local brokers and agents. I also believe that everyone deserves great service and communication! What does this mean to you? A quick sale for the highest possible price!

A Little about My Experience:
I have been a licensed Real Estate Agent since 1998 and have spent the last 12 years in Advertising, Mortgage Consulting and Residential Real Estate Sales. These traits serve me well because I know how to market homes and make sure YOUR transaction closes!

I love helping people find the perfect home or to help them get their home sold quickly for the highest possible price. Since I am experienced in listing and selling bank owned properties as well as regular equity sales, I can handle just about any transaction. This means that you have an agent that has your best interest at heart and knows how to get the job done!

Simply, I believe that if you provide the most cutting edge technology and marketing; back it with outstanding service, and do what you say you will, then the sales and happy clients will follow.
