Dear Walter and Petra:
I want to take a moment to thank you for your professionalism in the marketing of our Naples home; the market was not exactly conducive to a ready sale. I learned several things through this process: there are realtor's and then there are Realtors'!!! You and your team often went beyond expectation with market knowledge, internet savvy, and physical attentiveness that to us has redefined the profession. Believe me...I really can appreciate how hard you worked to see this transaction close. It wasn't easy...
Through it all you managed to weigh/balance the emotions of ambivalent homeowners like V. and I and our desires against the reality of the SW FL market....no small task indeed. I am not the easiest person to work with (especially when I do not know what I am talking about), but you managed to keep it together from start to finish.....and 'finish' is an understatement: YOU REALLY DELIVERED and were always there taking care of the smallest detail. It is V. and I that are thankful to have found you...
As I suggested when we parted, my sense is that this is not the last transaction between us. When and if the time is right, we may well return to the Gulf Coast. It is there that we can find the beaches and the water, a warmer sun, and a real professional that we have come to know, trust, and befriend!!! You are simply the best...
I wish you and Petra good health and happiness always!!!
D. and V.

Dear Walter and Petra:
I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful job you did for us marketing and selling our home in Naples. As you know, the previous realtor we had that listed the property basically did nothing other than put the unit on the Multiple Listing System and sat back and waited for someone else to show/sell the unit. Needless to say that technique did not work.
Having said this, my wife and I could not have been more pleased with you and Petra and the entire Roller Team. A fantastic job would be an understatement. You guys "staged" our unit, continuously held open houses, put the unit on the internet and kept us informed as to all the happenings as far as showings and what the market conditions were like. You went as far as vacuuming the unit before open houses as we were out of state. I am fairly certain than not many other realtor would do this for a client.
On top of all this, you managed to sell our unit which was two years old at a higher price than the developer was offering brand new units for. I am still amazed at how you accomplished this but obviously you both are exceptional at what you do.
I wholeheartedly recommend your services to everyone I speak with who is interested in buying or selling property in South West Florida. You earned every penny of your commission as you paid for it yourself in the price that you got us for our home.
If I can ever be of assistance, never hesitate to reach out to me.
Best always,
Alex H.

Internet marketing
According to the 2007 Survey done by the National Association of Realtors, 84% of buyers are using the internet
to search for homes. Internet marketing is becoming more and more important, as it gives potential buyers the option
to preview your home 24 hours a day from the comfort of their own home. Having a great virtual tour is a huge plus. A
lot of colorful, high resolution pictures will help showcase your home and solidify it as the best choice in your
buyers' minds. In addition to a great virtual tour, we offer a cutting edge YouTube video, in which buyers can
physically walk through your home and experience the traffic pattern, layout, colors, and features from miles away.
Your property will be featured on over 30 different websites, including Realtor.com, which alone receives over 4 million
visitors a day. Click any of the links to the right to view our example listing on most of the different websites your
property will be found on.
Email campaigns
Your property will be featured in different email campaigns, including a "Just Listed" campaign, "Featured Property" campaign,
and "Great Deals" campaign, to name a few. These email campaigns are sent to targeted buyers in our database who are looking for
properties just like yours! Your property will be included with a picture and link to your personalized website, which will
be custom built as a page on www.naplesmarcoislandrealestate.com.
Social Networking
Our team is involved with a number or different Social networking sites. The National Association of Realtors found that
around 30% of home buyers are involved with social networking regularly. All of our friends and acquaintances will receive
bulletins about your property once it is listed, and any time there is an open house or other event! It will also be featured
on our bi-monthly newsletter
Naples Marco Island News.
Active Calling
Once you list with us we will not just sit back and wait for your home to sell itself. We will call actively to find potential
buyers for your property. On average we make 250 calls per week to potential buyers! This is one of the big differences between
Your Tropical Property Team and regular agents.
Flyers
We will create a customized flyer designed to stand out especially for your property, using our state of the art design programs!
Our flyers are prominently displayed, are handed out in a variety of different locations in Naples and Marco Island, and are sure

interested buyers to schedule a showing for your property.
Just listed bulletins
Our "Just Listed" bulletins go out over both the Naples and Marco Island Multiple Listing Service, our inter-office service,
our databases, and all of our social networking sites and websites. The news of your property being listed is sure to make a
big impact, and all realtors looking for properties similar to yours will receive a direct link, making it easy for them to
pick your property to show to their customers. Our bulletins reach over 3000 realtors between the Naples and Marco Island boards!
Special Events
Our team is very involved with special community events, showcasing your properties to thousands of visitors to such gatherings as
the Marco Island Seafood festival. Your property flyer will be displayed at our booth and noticed by our guest from out of town, as
well as our local visitors. At these events we make it easy for potential buyers to see your home and ask any questions they have
before coming to view it.
Office and Board Tours
Both our office and the Marco Island Board of Realtors feature special property tours, in which we will present your property
to the top selling agents in the area both verbally, as well as physically. These agents will have seen your home and will have
it in the back of their minds as a great property to tell their potential buyers about.
Daily Open Houses
Our team holds daily Open Houses in different locations. We always have a package of our featured listings, so that we can show interested
buyers your property first. These Open Houses allow us to meet buyers directly and tell them about everything your property has to
offer. We will also hold publicized Open Houses at your property in order to showcase it to potential buyers driving through
the area.
Realtor.com
Your Property will be featured on Realtor.com, the number 1 property search website sponsored by the National Association of Realtors.
This site gets over 4 million visitors a day nationally. Your property will be featured including pictures and a great
description that will make buyers intent on seeing your property the next time they are in Naples or Marco Island.

relationships we have been fostering with other Real Estate professionals. We often exchange property information with other agents
looking for properties just like yours. Walter is a custom home builder on the Island, giving him contacts in the
construction industry that he is able to share your property with. Our contacts are a great help for sellers, since we can offer
repairs or quotes for repairs that will help you get the best deal for your home.

to offer over the competition.
