David Bartels
Realtor, Small Business Owner, and Public Speaker in Westlake Village, California
I am a Top 10 listing agent among all real estate agents in Ventura County, CA. In addition, I rank among the top 1% of all agents nationwide, as measured by the number of houses listed and sold.
Since 2010, I have assisted over 900 families buy or sell a home. I was recently featured on the cover of Top Agent Magazine, a Real Estate Industry Publication, for excellence in sales and service.
I am recognized as advocate of consumer rights and has developed four consumer oriented real estate companies.
As founder of Selling Smarter, I invented a consumer-friendly, technology assisted, information based sales process. This process allowed consumers to make better decisions about mortgage products from clearly understanding all options. - David pioneered the "no-upfront fee" loan modification concept during a time when loan modification scams were making national headlines. US Home Loan Advocates became the only loss mitigation company ever endorsed by the National Association of Mortgage Brokers.
To help homeowners faced with foreclosure, I founded Home Loan Advocates, Inc. The concept is help homeowners find alternatives to foreclosure and successfully complete short sales. Today, Home Loan Advocates is the largest short sale negotiation company in the world and provides negotiation services and negotiation training to real estate agents on national basis.
Today, as Broker/Owner of Help-U-Sell Conejo Valley, I am dedicated to helping home sellers save thousands in commissions via Help-U-Sell's low set fee, full service real estate agency.
In addition, I am a frequent seminar presenter at Realtor associations, real estate industry seminars, teaching real estate agents how to market for and successfully negotiate and close their transactions.
I currently mentor over 150 real estate professionals in my coaching program.
