The Edge of Technology
MKB's use of technology is one of our major distinctive factors. Our international reach through the Cartus Broker Network, as well as virtually every relocation service available, has enabled us to assist in over 200 relocation transactions annually. Our web site offers clients instant response to their queries, virtual open house tours and the ability to customize their home searches by price range, property type, location and description. Color technology, digital imagery, and a technology savvy staff enable our associates to best meet our client's needs. And our use of electronic lock-boxes has made homes more accessible to a wider variety of agents and their clients, while providing a higher level of security with the ability to supply instant activity information.

Experience and Education
In addition, our agents are on the cutting edge of the industry through the training we emphasize and encourage. New agents go through an extensive program that covers market analysis, buyer qualification, buyer agency and purchase cost calculation. Experienced agents pair up with new agents to guide them along in the skills of client communication, follow-up details and closings. The objective, no matter what the method, remains the same at MKB, REALTORS: to meet the real estate needs of our clients and customers.
