Michael Traum....The Right Real Estate Agent

This headline may look a bit too self-confident but that's what has happened to me by helping hundreds of people, receiving so much positive feedback, and even finding my lovely bride, Julie, after selling her a home...NOW THAT'S FULL SERVICE!

***NOTICE***   FEBRUARY - 2010 

DUE TO THE NATIONAL FORECLOSURE CRISIS, I HAVE DEDICATED ALL THE LINKS AT THE TOP OF THIS PAGE TO HELPING PEOPLE WHO MAY BE IN DANGER OF LOSING THEIR HOME.....IF YOU THINK THAT THIS APPLIES TO YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW, THE LINKS AT THE TOP OF THIS PAGE HAVE HELPFUL INFORMATION!  PLEASE NOTE THAT THE FIRST LINK IS MY 'FAQ' PAGE....IT'S A GOOD PLACE TO START!

People don't talk about it a lot but finding the right Realtor can be the difference between a happy, stress-free experience, and an unhappy, stressful experience.

First, you'll want an agent ready and able to make a full-time commitment to you. I've been a full-time Realtor since 1994. This is not a hobby or something I do because it looks so easy.  Working for free unless I sell a property is hard work and requires more confidence in myself than you can imagine.   

Second, you'll want an agent with the experience needed to know the local neighborhoods, schools, market conditions, ordinances, etc. I grew up on Norwalk, live in Fairfield, and have extensive knowledge of the surrounding towns of Westport, Wilton, Easton, Weston, Redding, Ridgefield, Darien, Bridgeport, Stratford, and Trumbull.  My 15+ years of experience in these markets have created the expertise and track record of success you need.

Third, you'll want an agent who embraces the convenience of technology without losing the personal touch. You'll love the resources available on my website and the e-mail alerts that I send, but these will never replace the time I spend with you, serving as your personal guide through this exciting process.  Don't miss www.MikesCorner.com/SEARCHTHEMLS as an example of how technology can help you.
