Former Interior Designer Joins Chicago Real Estate Company Dream Town
Dream Town Realty is proud to welcome Chicago real estate agent Tina Serafini to its team of buyer representatives and sales consultants. Ms. Serafini is an experienced home stager and interior designer. She joined Dream Town at the beginning of February as a residential specialist.
Chicago, IL, February 27, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Dream Town Realty, a top-ranked online real estate company based in Chicago, announces the addition of new agent Tina Serafini. She joined the firm in early February as a consultant for residential home buyer and seller services. Ms. Serafini is also an established home staging professional and interior decorator.
Prior to acquiring her realtor license, Ms. Serafini worked for more than 12 years in the interiors industry. She was responsible for marketing internationally-recognized interior design shows and later owned a home décor and staging business of her own. Ms. Serafini believes her background in design and residential architecture was a solid foundation on which to build a real estate career. She also translated years of marketing experience into expert property selling tactics.
"Clients want someone who can take care of all of the details, inside and out," said Ms. Serafini. "I can negotiate a deal and market a listing, but I can also help clients visualize a property's hidden potential or prepare a home for resale."
Ms. Serafini is one of four agents welcomed to Dream Town this month. The other new members are Jessie Keener, BJ Tregoning and Richard Mell – all part of the brokerage's team of residential specialists.
Dream Town has close to 140 agents and an award-winning web site that was voted the "City Favorite" by Chicago Agent magazine readers in 2009. The company offers buyer representation and listing assistance for both residential and commercial properties in the Chicagoland area. The firm also has an REO sales division and a luxury homes branch.
"The scope of Dream Town's real estate services really attracted me to the agency," said Ms. Serafini. "I know my clients are going to get the absolute best resources available, no matter what type of property or which location they're interested in."
Dream Town's industry-leading web site is known for its advanced proprietary online tools, which include the Chicago Explorer and Interactive Map Search. Chicago Explorer is a sophisticated address search function that shows what surrounds a specific street address. It uses Google map technology to pinpoint the location of restaurants, coffee shops, schools, post offices, grocery stores, gyms, museums, nightlife, CTA stops, theaters, businesses and more. Dream Town's Chicago Explorer can be viewed at www.dreamtown.com/chicago-explorer.jsp
The Interactive Map Search was developed by Dream Town as the "next level" in online house hunting. It allows home buyers to depict search areas on an interactive Google map of Chicago using three different methods – the Rubber Band Search, Radius Search, and Draw Search Area. After the search area is "drawn" on the map, it will populate with all property listings in the highlighted frame. The user can then select individual listings to see more info, photos and other details. Results can be filtered by price point, property type and number of beds/baths. There is also an option to see listings outside the designated search area that are in close proximity. Find out more at www.DreamTown.com
Ms. Serafini is a Windy City native. She received a Bachelor of Arts from Columbia College in downtown Chicago. View more information about Tina Serafini at www.dreamtown.com/agents/tina-serafini.html
