THE FRED SOLMAN TEAM- PUTTING PEOPLE FIRST
For the Fred Solman Team, guiding people through the maze of buying or selling a home is a trust-building exercise rather than a transaction, an approach that their clients treasure— per their abundant positive feedback.“ Our friends become clients and our clients become friends,” they say.
Not only were they voted the Silver-level Best Real Estate Agent Team by the readers of the Cranberry Eagle for 2017, but the team has numerous accolades within the Northwood Realty ecosystem as well – including being ranked # 11 in the company, Office Sales and Listing Leaders multiple times and over $ 60 million in sales. They are also Certified Relocation Team agents.
Solman says that it’ s the team and their approach to real estate that makes all the difference.
“ We work a lot like a doctor’ s office,” he explains.“ We like to call our business a‘ practice,’ and we believe in lifelong learning. We keep the mentality that you’ re not a know-it-all, no matter how good you are. Everyone has something more to learn. We take what we’ ve learned and we consult with each other about every client we have. With us, you get six agents for the price of one to help you buy or sell a home.”
And you’ d have a difficult time finding a more diverse group to help you with your home buying or selling needs.
All licensed Realtors with national, state and regional Realtor Association affiliations, the Fred Solman Team is comprised of Solman himself, who has over 25 years of experience as a licensed general contractor and certified building inspector along with 10 years as a Realtor; Eugenia Donatelli Werner, a multi-million producer who is fluent in Italian and joined the real estate industry 12 years ago after 34 years working as an engineer / project manager in the private sector; Catalina Jaramillo, a marketing specialist from Ecuador who’ s fluent in Spanish and facilitates international moves for clients; Scott Robinsky, another engineer who pursued real estate and focuses his services in the Beaver County market; Misty McAnlis, an equestrian specialist
whose area of focus is on, but not limited to, homebuyers looking for farms and acreage in Butler and Beaver counties; and Katie Schoppe, the team’ s newest member, a Multi-Million Dollar Producer for the past two years and a listing and buyer specialist.
Together, the Fred Solman Team works for you in your pursuit of finding the perfect home, but more importantly in protecting your interests.
“ I always tell clients that our number-one goal is not to find them a house, but to protect them financially first, and then find them a home,” Solman says.“ A home is your biggest investment, your largest monthly payment. Protecting clients through that whole transaction process is key. We take a process that can be long and frustrating and try to make it easy and enjoyable, keeping people informed and limiting their risk. We’ ll find you a home, but people need to know that we don’ t rush anyone. They’ ll know when they find the right house. I’ ve shown people 50 houses before they felt they found the right home. We’ re not chasing commissions and rushing our clients; we’ re here to be trusted advisors.”
In addition to being a Cranberry native who’ s been a resident of Zelienople for over 30 years, Solman is graciously active with Victory Family Church; volunteers with the“ Give Pack Golf Outing,” which provides around 1,300 quality backpacks full of school supplies each year to the Seneca Valley School District; Light of Life; Urban Impact and Glade Run. He’ s also a co-team leader for the Victory Car Cruise, and last year through P. O. W. T. provided a college scholarship through the Zelie Park Association. Solman was also a primary development consultant for Peachmont Farms.
