The Legal Advisors Program was created by Adelman Realty Group to assist legal firms and other professionals in liquidating residential property from distressed loans, short sales, divorces, and probates. ARG combines a proprietary short sale process with specialist experience to increase profits, shorten marketing timelines, create urgency, and build collaborative relationships. The program provides a professional service to efficiently dispose of properties, increasing client satisfaction and closing rates for repeat business. James Adelman leads the experienced team with over 17 years in real estate and $125 million in career sales.
3. Effective Partnering
Adelman Realty Group’s Legal Advisors Program was
conceived to assist professional service firms - attorneys,
mortgage modification companies and workout specialists -
with the disposal of burdensome residential property
resulting from:
• Distressed loans
• Buyers with impending loan adjustments (option arms)
• Real property securing distressed businesses’ lines of credit
• Residential (primary, investment) liquidations due to divorce
• Probate sales
4. Innovative Solutions
Combining a proprietary short sale process with specialist
experience, ARG increases net proceeds and shortens the
marketing period associated with traditional short sale
transactions by:
• Creating a sense of urgency
• Exposing property to a wider - yet targeted - audience
• Lowering carrying costs to seller
• Implementing accelerated marketing
• Building collaborative, mutually beneficial relationships
5. Desired Results
Capitalizing on specialist experience and training, our Legal Advisors
Program provides a professional, knowledgeable and hands-on
service. We remove the burden of liquidating property from you and
secure the results you need - quickly, efficiently and profitably -
thereby allowing you to better serve your clients.
Our services result in:
• Repeat business transactions due to higher satisfaction
• Fewer deadlocks or lost deals
• Increased closing rates
• Better control over desired outcomes (non-refundable earnest
deposits on short sale offers drastically increase closing percentages)
• Increased efficiency rates
• Improved reputation for successful disposition of distressed assets
6. Professional Service
Years of experience have fine-tuned our philosophy, allowing us to
build an appropriate and effective process to handle distressed
property transactions. ARG offers:
• Direct and responsive communication with designated broker
(calls returned within the hour)
• Accessible and prompt service
• Better results through advanced skills, training and professionalism
• No subordination to sub-agents
• Duty of care philosophy
• 48 hour turnover on Broker Price Opinions
• 24 hour turnover on Competitive Market Analysis (ARMLS)
7. Professional Service
• Joint marketing and co-sponsoring opportunities to increase
recognition in market
• Superior exposure for properties via ARG industry partnerships
• Site and/or property-appropriate signage
• Adept management of all parties/stakeholders, keeping all engaged
and motivated towards the collective goal.
• Professional marketing services and support (EIO Agency)
• Strategic alliances with title, lending and mortgage organizations
9. Marketing & Sales
A strong internet presence is vital to the successful disposition of real
property. In a recent survey, home buyers were asked, “Do you think the
internet is becoming more important than print advertising to market a
home?” A resounding 93.4% agreed.
Accordingly, ARG has constructed a wide-ranging electronic media plan
to market all properties from the Legal Advisors Program to ensure the
highest levels of visibility, including listings on:
Arizona Multiple Listing Service (ARMLS)
Realtor.com
azcentral.com
AOL real estate pages
various other on-line sites, e.g. Facebook, Twitter, etc.
We employ best practices for SEO (search engine optimization, or
adwords), to increase market awareness and absorption.
10. Marketing & Sales
In addition to a robust internet marketing campaign, ARG:
• Conducts open houses where appropriate
• Employs creative marketing promotions for high-priority/profile property
• Fosters good faith within the existing community
• Secures and places reasonable and effective print advertising
Other traditional marketing tactics include:
• Direct mail - Fliers - Postcards
• Print venues include (but are not limited to):
• North East Valley Times
• Tatum Times
• Phoenix Business Journal
• ARG website
• Neighborhood and site signage
• Arizona Republic
• Phoenix New Times
• Homes & Land Magazine
• Local real estate guides

21. Why ARG?
As a long time resident, James Adelman has witnessed the development of the greater
Phoenix community, and knows it well - perhaps better than many in the industry.
Working (and succeeding) in both extreme growth and contraction cycles of our local
market, he is familiar with the constraints and opportunities of both.
A thorough understanding of the business of new home and resale property gives ARG
a competitive advantage, which equates to bottom-line success for you. A proven
record of success and years of experience means ARG brings "big city" savvy, effective
marketing and valuable connections within the buyer demographics, and carefully
constructed strategic partnerships to access, penetrate and convert them.
ARG performs. Successfully “marketing out-of-market,” ARG brings buyers outside the
usual or expected parameters to contract and completion, even in the most challenged
of economies and markets. ARG short sales listings have sold/contracted in 10 days -
versus the current average 235 days-on-market statistic.
22. Why ARG?
The recovery of the Phoenix market will be dependent on successful teamwork - and
you are an integral part of the team. ARG believes in the power of strategic partnership,
and our intent is to provide the most knowledgeable and efficient service to reach our
collective aims.
Attaining our goals will also provide socio-economic benefits to the wider community.
We'll consider it a resounding success, knowing we're able to give something back and
thereby contribute to the greater good.
With our commitment to excellence combined with our finely honed strategic and
creative approach, ARG is positioned to help you meet and exceed your business
objectives. We understand that results are the only thing that matters.
Simply put, we get it done.
