Fishers resident Allen Williams is connecting prospective sellers and homebuyers through the recently launched Fishers Home Match website.
As a seasoned agent and 20-year Fishers resident with a passion for connecting people with their perfect homes, Williams teamed up with his business partner and real estate powerhouse Dick Richwine in 2021, in what was a seamless transition. Both have always put their clients over contracts. Providing exceptional service has always been the foundation on which they work and build their businesses. Because of this, they constantly think of ways to add value and strive to go the extra mile for their buyers and sellers.
As inventory issues have plagued buyers since 2020, Williams and Richwine wanted to create a solution that would stand out from the pack, and offer a service that could potentially benefit both the buyers and sellers. They knew there had to be an easier way for potential home sellers who may not want the hassle and stress of listing their home, and also a way to help buyers in Fishers.
“Our team found several off-market homes for our clients in 2023 and previous years,” Williams says. “Instead of waiting for a home to come to market, we are making a concerted effort to find potential sellers in hopes we find a match for our buyers through off-market properties. In this market, we have to be proactive for our clients.”
For Fishers homeowners who have considered selling in 2024, you can visit FishersHomeMatch.com and provide information about your home. Williams and team will connect with you to answer some initial questions to decide if the program is the right fit.
“Sellers who we have helped with off-market sales had some common similarities,” Williams says. “First, they wanted verification that the buyer was pre-approved or, if they were paying cash for the home, had proof of funds to review. They also wanted a particular price for their home, and for the buyer to agree to a few specific terms like possession after closing, allowing the seller to close, and be paid prior to packing up or purchasing another home.”
The other important item for sellers was not having several showings. They wanted just one or a few qualified buyers touring their home on the same day, instead of several dozen over weeks.
“Our buyers have been thrilled with the transparency, making it easy to decide if the home and terms would work,” Williams says. “And if they did work for the buyer, they were over the moon that they could secure it, finally starting the next chapter in homeownership.”
Williams and Richwine operate the Williams Richwine Real Estate Group with the Fishers-based Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices office. The Williams Richwine team ranked number one in Fishers in 2022 and 2023* for most residential homes sold. No other active real estate team has sold more homes than theirs, serving nearly 6,000 clients in Fishers and Geist alone. Because of this, the team has an extensive network of past clients, some of whom may have a home that is the perfect match for their buyers.
