At the open house I held on Saturday for this home, we had a good turnout. Earlier in the week, a Realtor had brought a lady by to see the home, but the Realtor had a comparative market analysis or nearby home prices that was not accurate.
I did the research and found a better set of COMPS for them, and on Saturday, the lady buyer came by with her husband and not the Realtor. The home’s owner was there and personally showed them all the home’s great features that he had added with loving care.
We are hoping that the couple comes back and wants to make an offer on the home now that they know the CORRECT comps and have seen the incredible view and amenities and improvements.
This home is located in the elite, high atop a hill section of San Clemente known as Palacio Del Mar in South San Clemente, CA.


Dear Debbie and Bill,

Dear Carmela:
Remember what I wrote about your upcoming seminar at our OCAR facility in Orange County, CA?:
Carmela is a legendary and extraordinary speaker. I just completed her weeklong Certified International Property Specialist (CIPS) course in Bangkok, Thailand. There, I was stunned at how her teaching method caused we 22 students to grasp and retain the huge amount of data we needed to know for our exam. (I passed it.) You, too, will be amazed at how much you retain from her OCAR seminar, just because of the way she teaches you.
Carmela’s seminar shows you how to avoid making common bonehead mistakes with people of different backgrounds. And, far better yet, you can learn methods that will help you gain their trust.
Ms. Carmela Ma, CCIM, CIPS, CRE was awarded the CCIM Instructor of the Year 2003 for the entire Institute, The People’s Choice Award 2003, Senior Instructor of the Year for Financial Analysis in Commercial Real Estate CI-101-CCIM 2001, and CIPS International Instructor of the Year 1998.
Ms. Ma is a senior instructor of the Commercial Investment Real Estate Institute, the institute that confers the Certified Commercial Investment Member designation (CCIM), a designation known as “the Ph.D. of Commercial Real Estate.”
She is also an international instructor for the National Association of Realtors (NAR) international division, which confers the Certified International Properties Specialist designation (CIPS).
Ms. Ma served as the faculty chair/dean of the NAR International Section, president and founding member of the CCIM Chapter of Greater Los Angeles, and Chair of the CCIM International Coordinating Committee.
She is the Education Steering Committee Chair for the CCIM Institute and the 2005 Chair of the International Operations Committee of the National Association of Realtors, the largest trade organization in the world with one million, two hundred thousand members.
Pretty Impressive, huh? And you should see the WHOLE bio sometime. In closing, you owe it to yourself to attend this seminar, and, as I said, I know what I’m talking about, having gained my CIPS designation as only 1,000 people worldwide have done, thanks to Carmela’s brilliant coaching. What a wonderful instructor she is.
Go to her seminar. Get selling tactics and techniques so very valuable to you right now. And then afterwards, call me and tell me how I wasn’t kidding you.
