SALES TEAM OF THE YEAR
GOLD AWARD—SALES
Our in-house sales team is required to do much more than most on-site agents.
Responsible for covering nine communities across the Triangle ranging from $300s
to $1.5M, they must be able to cross-sell, be detailed, flexible, tech-savvy and work
remotely. Together with their Project Managers, they determine specifications and
budgets for inventory and pre-sale homes. We do not operate from base prices,
rather price each home on its own merit. Having a more discerning buyer, our
average price point is $500,000, and the ability to customize our plans make the
buying process lengthier and more challenging. It is imperative that we soften the
process for our buyers, guiding them without overwhelming them but still securing
a commitment. With complex, custom presales it is not possible to close on the
first visit, but instead we look for small wins along the way such as lot-reservations,
design-contracts or appointments with our in-house architect or design consultants.

environments. While they all cross-sell our 9 communities across The Triangle, they
Raleigh, NC
are individually responsible for their focus communities. Peter and Whitney co-sell
Briar Chapel, a master-planned community in Chapel Hill with homes from the $300s
to $700s, and work out of two different model homes. One is lightly staged while
the other one is a fully-decorated model home. Sydney and Susan also co-sell in
a master-planned community, this one named Wendell Falls located in Wendell,
NC with their homes in the $300-$450 price range. They have two fully decorated
model homes to sell out of and also spend time selling from their move-in ready
custom designs. Diandra travels to our other communities, which are developed and
built exclusively by Homes By Dickerson. These estate-style custom designs start
in the $600s and can go well into the million-dollar price tag. She works wherever
is convenient at the time whether it is from our home office in Raleigh, one of our
moving model homes (a lightly staged spec home in one of the communities) or
even from her car. She is able to make herself available to her clients and travel the
different neighborhoods in her territory.
