Rodger Hardy, Realtor, MA, CSP
For more than 20 years I have built a reputation as a dedicated, hard-working Realtor with the success of filling my clients’ needs as my key goal.
Prior to becoming licensed, I served Realtors and builders as a marketing professional and have a Master of Arts in Public Relations from Brigham Young University. I also served as Real Estate Editor for The Desert Sun in Palm Springs, Calif. for six years. Additionally I wrote for the Deseret News for 15 years concurrent with my real estate career. A full-time
Realtor, I also write a column, Real Estate Matters, for the Provo Daily Herald. Unlike many in the busi- ness I came to real estate in 1994 as a seasoned marketing professional, ready and able to offer my clients the best chance for a successful transaction.
My clients receive personal attention and full disclosure. A trained communicator, I stay in touch with them regularly to keep them informed throughout the process.
My successful track record includes sellers in all price ranges, first-time buyers, move-up buyers and investors. Our marketing program under the Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage-Orem banner, is second to none. Every seller gets a virtual tour and strong Internet marketing with our listings featured on major real estate websites, including Realtor.com Trulia and Zillow as well as our own www.ziprealty. com. Our marketing team gives me, as a Realtor, the support I need to successfully complete transactions for my clients.
My list of real estate honors includes the annual 2015 Leaders In Online Service (LIONS) award, the 4th quarter 2015 LIONS award for listings taken, closed units and GCI; the 2015 Top 15 percent 4th quarter LIONS for closed units and GCI; and an award of Excellence for Online Marketing from Realtor.com and two national awards for real estate public relations. As a journalist I received awards from the American Society of Interior Designers and the Society of Professional Journalists.
