Hillman Real Estate Group’s Renée Hillman Wins Indy Week’s “Best of the Triangle” Award for Best Realtor in Wake County

Renee Hillman on June 23, 2016

RE/MAX leading agent credits repeat clients and exclusive coming soon marketing program for growing team’s successes in the local market

Raleigh, NC – Hillman Real Estate Group, a team of RE/MAX One Realty led by industry veteran Renée Hillman, is celebrating its recent nod in Indy Week’s annual “Best of the Triangle”, in which Renée Hillman was named as the “Best REALTOR® in Wake County”.

The 2016 collection, which according to Indy Week, included “more than six hundred thousand votes from more than twenty thousand voters in more than three hundred categories”, was compiled during two rounds of nominations and voting earlier this year. The list of winners, which was published in June, is said to “reflect the choices of a larger percentage of [our] readers than ever before”, according to Indy Week’s Jeffrey C. Billman.

“Over 80% of our business is driven by repeat clients,” says Hillman, who is a 37 year resident of North Carolina and a Triangle resident since 1990, adding that “those same repeat clients have no hesitation about recommending our team and our high-quality services to their friends, family, and co-workers often.” In addition to having a deep book of satisfied clients from transactions past, Hillman beams with pride when talking about Hillman Real Estate Group’s exclusive “Coming Soon” listing and marketing program that keeps for sale listings’ time on the market low and often nets clients multiple offers and over-list-price closings.

After moving in, Anna Peek left this nice review on Zillow.com:

“My husband and I were first time home buyers, and Renee made the process simple and stress free for us. Initially, she met with us to explain the entire process. She answered all of our questions during the process. Renee and her entire team are very knowledgeable and responsive. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again!” – Anna Peek

What Clients Say About Renee: The Kafels

Renee Hillman on March 29, 2016

I cannot say enough words of gratitute to the Kafels for this great review they wrote this month – I’m so proud of our team for delivering great service and expertise that fellow industry professionals can say this many nice things about. Thank you, again, Kafel Family!

“My wife and I had met with a few different realtors when starting our search for a home. When we met Renee we hit it off immediately and knew she was the one to move forward with. She was very responsive, which is one characteristic we really appreciated. Once we found a home and were under contract, the system that Renee had setup was smooth, easy, and very clear on the steps to be taken. Additionally, as an architecture and construction duo ourselves, we can attest to the fact that Renee was very knowledgeable in matters concerning architecture and construction. She quickly pointed out items needing attention. We’ll definitely use Renee again and highly recommend her services.” – The Kafels

What Clients Say About Renee: Ruth Williams

Renee Hillman on March 14, 2016

I am so thrilled to have had the opportunity to help Ms. Ruth Williams purchase this beautiful new construction home in Wake Forest earlier this year – and cannot thank Ms. Williams enough for the kind review she wrote after:

“I just want to thank Renee for all of her assistance in finding me a home during this recent transition to Raleigh. Renee came highly recommended and she did not disappoint! She was helpful, knowledgeable and awesome on follow up. At one point, I thought I would not need an agent if I bought new construction, however I am so glad I had Renee to represent me and assist with the purchase of my new home. I will always recommend Renee to anyone interested in purchasing a home in the future.” – Ms. Ruth Williams

Service Project of the Month: WAKE Up and Read

Renee Hillman on February 12, 2016

Several years ago instead of giving something up for Lent, I decided to try something different. I wanted to add something to my life. After thinking about it, it became apparent that time was my most valuable commodity. I also wanted to get back into volunteering. After some searching, I found the perfect fit: the Catholic Parish Outreach. The Outreach serves over 10,000 people a month and is run 95% by volunteers. You don’t have to be Catholic to go there or volunteer and notably, it is actually the largest food pantry in NC!

I have spent hundreds of hours volunteering over the last seven years with the Catholic Parish Outreach – sorting food in the warehouse, getting orders together, sifting through 500 dozen eggs… you name it, my parents and I have probably done it. By the way, did I mention this has become a family affair?! I have also dedicated a portion of all my sales to make a sizable donation each year, of which I hope to double this year.

This year I was again wondering what I would do for Lent and it was like divine intervention that I saw a tweet that our local board of Realtors Young Professionals Group was teaming up with WAKE Up and Read. After doing some research, I knew this would be the perfect service project to add this year!

Being a new parent, my whole world has changed. Over the past seven months, reading to my daughter has been one of my absolute favorite things to do. It allows me to really focus on her, be in the moment, and not worry about outside distractions. I cherish this time with her and love it.

So this is what I’m asking of YOU: WAKE Up and Read is looking for gently used or new books geared to the ages of 0-12 years. We are working on coordinating drop points and we are even willing to pick them up from you if that makes things easier! In one day, just from two people cleaning up their kids’ books, we already have close to 100 donated!

I hope you’ll join Hillman Real Estate Group in supporting this great initiative. During the month of February, WAKE Up and Read has set a goal of collecting “110,000 books in one month – enough to share with students at 10 elementary schools, as well as community centers and 20 child care facilities across Wake County.” It’s a lofty ambition, but one that I know this great organization and its many volunteers, like myself, are ready to tackle in the month of February. If you have any questions, would like to coordinate a donation drop-off or pick-up, or would like to get further involved yourself, please call or email me to get started! You can reach me at 919-877-6708 or Renee@HREGSells.com.

Let’s get ready to WAKE Up and Read!

PS: Hillman Real Estate Group is planning to buy $500 worth of books to support this great cause, so if you’d simply like to donate to support, we’d be happy to purchase additional books on your behalf!

What Clients Say About Renee: The Haggard Family

Renee Hillman on January 28, 2016

Our wonderful client Beth Haggard was kind enough to recently write the following review at Realtor.com about the services my team and I were able to provide to her family during the recent sale of their home:

“I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Renee. From day 1 of coming to do an initial walk through of our home, she sat down with us and explained step-by-step how everything would work (since this was our first time selling). She gave us a nice little organized folder that had all the information we would need. She gave helpful suggestions on how to organize and stage our home so that it would be show-ready! She researched our area thoroughly and helped us list it at just the right price.

We had multiple showings within the first few days, and TWO offers by the 5th day of being on the market! We knew she was good, but wow, that was faster that we ever could have imagined! Since we had multiple offers, she was able to get us exactly what we were asking for…”

“We could pretty much get a hold of her anytime day or night, but in the case that she was busy (because everyone wants her!), her Client Care Specialist, Jenn was there to answer our questions, which I think makes their firm very unique. I kept commenting on how I was in awe of how organized Renee is. I have already recommended her to family and friends and would certainly recommend her to anyone else looking to buy or sell a home!”

Thank you very much for the kind words, Beth – it’s great clients like you that make this a dream job for my entire team. We love working with clients like you and sincerely appreciate the referrals you have been willing to make on our behalf!
