YOUR BEST ADVOCATE 

In 2005, we set out to be your best advocate in the Boyne City real estate market. Since then, we’ve listed thousands of properties. Today, we’re expanding on success and covering a large part of Northwest Michigan including these counties: Charlevoix, Antrim, Grand Traverse, Otsego, Cheboygan, Emmet, and Leelanau.

When we meet with you to discuss selling your property, it’s important we get to know each other. Selling a home is a BIG deal with many facets that we can tune to your benefit. We’ll discuss preparing your home and we’ll provide you with an opinion of property value based on comparable active and recently sold listings. Expect loyalty. We practice the Realtor® Code of Ethics, diligently negotiating on your behalf and making sure contracts and forms are accurate and updated.

 

Unmatched Visibility. Unbeatable Results.

When we list your property, we go big. Team O’Brien marketing starts with our professional network, the multi-list system, and expands to online real estate platforms, including PatOBrien.com, Zillow and Realtor.com. We put your property in front of a wide range of potential buyers who might not see a sign in your yard or an ad in the local paper. You may have seen Team O’Brien properties listed in catalogues, visitor guides, magazines and yard signs. We pursue every advertising path that makes sense for your property.

Problem Solvers for a Seamless Sale

Sometimes bringing a transaction to the closing table includes surprise. When appraisals don’t come in as high as expected, an inspection report reveals a glitch, or an appliance goes on the fritz, a calm, competent realtor is an enormous asset. If you are selling from a distance and receive notice of a burst pipe, we know who to call. We have long-standing relationships with contractors, inspectors, local lenders, and title companies to connect you with real problem solvers, altogether guiding you across the closing line with confidence. That’s peace of mind.

Team O'Brien practices real estate with honesty, integrity, responsiveness, market knowledge, and joy. We’re not shy when it comes to sponsoring local events and giving back to the communities we serve. As a team, we contribute 1% of our commissions to local organizations—to date we’ve donated more than $200,000.

Tips for Selling Your Home: Professional Advice from Team O'Brien

Selling your home can feel like a daunting process, but with professional guidance, it can be exciting and rewarding. Pat O'Brien & Associates, a leading real estate agency based in Charlevoix County, reveals tips to help you sell your home with confidence.

When selling your home, first impressions are crucial. Cleaning up your space helps potential buyers visualize themselves living in your space. By decluttering, depersonalizing, and optimizing furniture arrangements, you can make your home more appealing to a wide range of buyers. Remember to tidy up the yard, too! A well cared for home can significantly increase its value and decrease the time it spends on the market.

One of the most critical aspects of selling your home is setting the right price. A well-priced home will attract more potential buyers and increase the chances of receiving multiple offers. Pat O'Brien & Associates will help you determine the best price for your home by conducting a thorough market analysis, considering factors like comparable sales, local market trends, and your property's location and unique features.

Homebuyers typically begin their search online. High-quality, professional photos make your listing stand out and capture more interest. Pat O'Brien & Associates uses professional photographers to ensure your home is showcased in the best possible light, highlighting its most attractive features to attract potential buyers.

The real estate market is constantly changing, and choosing the right time to sell can significantly impact your results. Our experienced agents at Pat O'Brien & Associates will help you navigate these fluctuations and determine the optimal time to list your home based on local market trends and most importantly, your personal needs and preferences.

Curb appeal is another essential factor in selling your home. Potential buyers often form an opinion about your property before they even step inside. Simple updates like landscaping, painting your front door, or installing new exterior lighting can significantly improve your home's curb appeal and attract more buyers.

Making your home available for showings with flexible scheduling can increase the number of potential buyers who view your property. Pat O'Brien & Associates will work with you to establish a showing schedule that maximizes exposure while minimizing disruption to your daily life.

At Pat O'Brien & Associates, our knowledgeable and dedicated real estate agents guide you through the selling process. Look to us for honest answers, integrity, responsiveness, and real market knowledge. We're committed to providing personalized service, expert advice, and rewarding results. We're here for you.
