Welcome to The Caplan Team web site. You will find a great deal of helpful information about real estate. Working together with our clients means your needs, wants, and priorities are our focus. Of course, one of the reasons we publish this web site is so that you will consider us when you need assistance in real estate. So while you are more important than we are, here is a little bit about us.
Judi and Marvin Caplan are Real Estate Brokers working with Coldwell Banker Pinnacle Real Estate, Brokerage. We are ably assisted by Elke Meiritz. Elke's experience in customer service and administration helps our team give you the best in service.
Our team is able to assist you with almost any real estate need. Experienced in residential, commercial and investment properties in the greater Hamilton area, the team has helped sellers and buyers throughout the boundaries of the Realtors Association of Hamilton Burlington (RHAB). *
With the increasing popularity of the condominium lifestyle, few real estate representatives bring to their clients the same breadth of experience in buying and marketing Condominiums.
Like most people we are proud of our accomplishments. JUDI and MARVIN CAPLAN have attained the coveted "President's Circle" designation recognizing their high achievement in service and sales in the real estate industry and Coldwell Banker. They have also been awarded the Ultimate Service® Award by their Brokerage.
JUDI CAPLAN has been awarded the designation of Accredited Staging Professional® (ASP®). She has successfully completed a detailed course and passed a thorough examination on preparing homes for sale. Homes that are staged, or prepared for sale, by an Accredited Staging Professional look better than other homes on the market by being clean, clutter-free, and ready to show to prospective buyers. Staged homes traditionally sell faster and/or for more money in today’s real estate market. The ASP® designation is a benchmark of true excellence in customer service for home sellers. JUDI CAPLAN is dedicated to the principles and practices of Staging® and the many benefits this service will bring to her clients. The combination of selling and staging skills will provide you with someone who is able to help sell your home for the most money in the shortest period of time.
MARVIN CAPLAN achieved status as a Certified Real Estate Brokerage Manager®. The CRB® designation has been achieved by fewer than 1% of Canadian REALTORS®. A former retailer and member of Hamilton City Council as well as a number of community based organizations, Marvin brings his considerable array of skills to bear to assist the Caplan Team’s clients. First time buyers and seasoned real estate investors have commented on his listening skills and talent in negotiating solutions.
As believers in life-long learning, the Caplan Team, Judi and Marvin continually upgrade their skills and knowledge to better serve their clients.
When you select a real estate Brokers to assist in a transaction as significant as purchasing or selling a home, or real estate investment - choose your representative with care. They are quite happy to be interviewed before their prospective clients select the representative they work with.
The Caplan team believes theat for most customers full service real estate representation is the best option. But, they also believe that you should be a ble to choose the level of service you weant. So they also offer Fee for Service, A La Carte. This service allows home sellers to list their homes privately or do some of the marketing themselves, while using the Multiple Listing Service MLS®. See our Sellers Page to learn more.
While A La Carte - fee for service has the potential to aid "For Sale By Owner" (FSBO) clients, the process of selling property can be fraught with difficulty. In most situations the Caplan Team believes the Coldwell Banker Ultimate Service® program is the best way to buy or sell any residential property. (The unique Ultimate Service program is more fully described elsewhere on this site.) In the section marked information for Buyers / Sellers some of the many difficulties are outlined.
If you are looking for Realtors® that will go the extra mile, call JUDI and MARVIN at 905 522 1110 or toll free at 1-877-935-1110 or email us at mailto: judi-caplan@coldwellbanker.com. You won’t be disappointed!
