Cell: 903.557.0671 Realtor®, ABR, GRI Delena Dorgan After several years in the Banking industry, and being involved in my husband's construction/excavation company, I learned the building process literally from the ground up. It was natural that I move into the field of Real Estate. I have enjoyed learning the many aspects that this field has to offer. Having been in this industry since 2002, I have truly found my perfect career. I love helping buyers and sellers achieve their dreams, working side by side with them through the obstacles and struggles. I love to celebrate their successes at the end of the buying and selling process.
I have been blessed by being named "Rookie of the Year" by the Longview Area Association of Realtors my first year in the business and being voted "One of the Area's Top Real Estate Agents" by the Longview News-Journal for 3 of the last 5 years. I have been Top Producer consistently since beginning my career in real estate, and am thankful to my clients and friends for their support. I have served as a Director on our Longview Area Association of Realtors and enjoy being involved in the community.
Having grown up in this area, I feel that I have a great love and committment to share the things that make East Texas so very special to me. I believe that buyers and sellers that come into my life are not just clients, but life long friends that God has blessed me with.
I am a member of the Longview Area Association of Realtors, as well as the Texas Association of Realtors and the National Association of Realtors. I have continued my education to receive my Graduate Realtor Institute (GRI), and Accredited Buyer Representative Designation (ABR), so that I would be better prepared to serve my clients needs to the best of my ability.
My faith in God and my family are my first and foremost priorities. My husband, David, and I are both deeply rooted in East Texas. David is a graduate of Longview High School, and I attended Diana High School. Our sons attended Hallsville Schools. After our youngest son graduated in 2001, we moved back to the Diana area, where my husband bases his construction company and continues to stay involved in the building industry.
I would love to show you the East Texas area and help you whether you are buying or selling. Please feel free to call me to help you find the home of your dreams! |

!2 Tips to selling your home
Twelve tips to sell your home There are few things more frustrating to a seller than a home that sits on the market. It’s stressful to keep a house in showing condition, and not selling can cost you lots of money. Use these tips as a quick guide to better your chances at selling your house in a timely fashion. - Sit down with your Texas REALTOR® and evaluate your listing price. Visit open houses in your neighborhood. Are similar homes priced lower? An overpriced home is destined to sit on the market too long.
- Do whatever it takes to be away from your home during showings and open houses.
- Ask your Texas REALTOR® for feedback on how your home shows, and ask him to solicit other agents’ advice. Feedback from their clients can really help.
- If you intend to hold an open house, consider doing so on a weeknight. Competition may be lower, and you’ll attract the interest of buyers who may not be available on the weekend.
- Help promote your property. Talk about your home to everyone you know. Look for other ways to get the word out, too, even if your agent is doing a lot to promote your house.
- If you’re really motivated, you can offer perks to buyers, such as a cash bonus or help with closing costs.
- Neutralize your color scheme. Most buyers prefer neutral colors that make it easier to imagine a new home as their own.
- Consider offering an increased commission or a bonus for your listing agent as extra incentive. If you do so, amend your listing contract to reflect the change, and be sure those details are added to the multiple listing service (MLS). Buyer agents will also be inspired to give your house extra attention.
- If your REALTOR® has a video tour of the house, watch the tape as if you were a prospective buyer … you may be surprised at what you see.
- Fix lingering problems, such as the dripping faucet or the door that doesn’t quite close right.
- Clean and de-clutter—neat, organized houses sell faster than those that look too lived-in.
- It’s not about you. Buyers want to imagine their family in the house. If your house shows an abundance of your personality, it may dissuade the buyer.
There are many other things you can do to hasten the sale of your property, no matter the condition of the housing market. Give me a call today and let's discuss thow to best position your home for a quick and successful sale in today's market. Delena Dorgan 903 557-0671 |
