I’m proud to introduce you to the new Trish Hopkins Brand – a brand that, like me, is dedicated to service, trust and compassion.

sERvicEThe crux of what I do is service. I offer courageous service with strong focused intent. Not only does this one component separate me from my competition, it is what defines my perspective on what I do. I spend my days serving those that are brought into my life. On every occasion, I find ways to provide my clients with a level of service far above and beyond what they receive from other agents.

TRusTI provide the level of service that I do to build greater confidence in me, in the guidance I provide, and in the transaction. This trust is critical between my clients and me – trust in my expertise, my industry knowledge and my guidance – so they can make the best decision possible with the biggest investments of their lives, and the places they will call home. As a result, my past clients know they can trust me to serve their referred families and friends.

coMpAssionMy compassion for my clients is the reason the first two tenets even exist in the first place. I understand the importance and the intimacy of the home buying or selling process. I get how arduous those processes can be, so I go above and beyond to make it as smooth as possible for my clients. I firmly believe that people are more important than the transaction, which is why I strive to create a deeper connection with my clients than simply client/agent. We’re in this as a team.

Beyond call of Duty

“We have used Trish to buy and sell two times in the last 9 years. Both times, Trish went above and beyond the call of duty, including assisting with staging, to ensure our house was ready to sell, and helped ensure we got the best price possible. When looking for a

new home, Trish was very in tune with what our needs were, and did an excellent job of finding the right home for our family.”

Webb and Juanita Mcdonald - webb.mcdonald@comcast.net

proactive problem solver

Trish and “proactive problem solver” are synonymous to us. No matter what issues we presented to her, she calmly and professionally answered our questions and found solutions to our concerns. she is an amazing person and it was so refreshing to work with

someone who truly had our best interests at heart! Not only did she successfully sell our home in lone Tree in less than 30 days, she then assisted us finding our beautiful new home, as well as a wonderful “beginner” home for our son!

Top Notch Marketing!

“Trish went above and beyond any of our expectations. This was the 5th home we sold, and Trish was the best realtor we have had. she added value to our family’s experience in ways that we didn’t even anticipate. Trish gave us such sound advice in our initial consultation, prepared us with helpful documents, and staged our home to enhance and highlight the unique features. We haven’t

seen such professional top-notch marketing as hers. Our home sold quickly due to her diligence, hard work and years of experience. When it came time to the negotiations in selling and purchasing our new home, she offered us invaluable advice and guidance. Her professionalism was unprecedented. We are so thankful for her service to our family which made our transition seamless. There are

no words to describe what a blessing she has been to our family.”

Probably the most important choice you make in selling your home is to decide to obtain the services of a realtor: a professional that markets properties like yours for a living.

You have a choice in who represents you, and what your relationship with that person will be.
