Ultimate Marketing Plan

The Renaud Otten Team gives your home ultimate marketing exposure.

Our goal is:

• to sell your home for the best price,

Proven Marketing Plans

Sales do not happen because of the "idea of the week". It takes detailed planning that is executed by a professional team with one goal in mind: the sale of your home.

From the moment you list your home for sale with the Renaud Otten Team, our custom designed marketing plan for your home is launched.

Here are just a few of the services available to you when you list your home with the Renaud Otten Team:

Guaranteed Home Sale Program

Your home is guaranteed to sell when you upgrade to a home listed for sale with our Team.

Are you having trouble deciding whether to buy first or sell first? You don’t want to risk owning two homes at the same time, or worse, not owning a home at all. Our Guaranteed Home Sale Program solves this problem. It works like this - when you buy one of our listings through the Renaud Otten Team, and if your present home qualifies and you list it with us, we will sell your home within 90 days or we'll buy it ourselves. (Certain conditions and restrictions apply.)
