TED PICKUS

What do you like most about real estate?

I love knowing I am helping my clients move onto the next chapter of their lives. Be it a first-time home buyer, empty nester downsizing, or anyone in between, knowing they are moving on is the BEST!

How do you differentiate yourself from the competition?

Three principles: caring, integrity and tenacity. First and foremost, I care about my clients’ needs and I’m concerned that their goals and interests are always represented. I not only want what is best for all parties in every transaction, but what is most ethical. I don’t give up until we reach success.

Market trends you anticipate in 2023?

I think 2023 will continue to be a seller’s market. There are still more buyers in the market than sellers and I don’t see that changing in 2023.
