Why Royal Oak sellers choose The Perna Team

Royal Oak is one of the fastest-moving markets in Metro Detroit, walkable, in high demand, and competitive. Selling here isn't about listing a house and waiting. It's about pricing it precisely and capturing the crucial first two weeks, when a listing gets the most attention it will ever get.

That's what the numbers reflect. Selling in about 19 days against a 34-day area average means our Royal Oak listings move in roughly half the time, and a 99.1% list-to-sale ratio means sellers net essentially their full asking price.That combination, faster and at full price, is the whole job, and it comes from pricing strategy and an in-house media team, not luck.

Why Royal Oak buyers choose The Perna Team

With more than 600 Royal Oak homes sold, The Perna Team has written and won offers on these streets more than almost anyone in the market.
