A Different Market Requires a Different Approach
The strategies that work for a $300K listing don't translate to a $1.5M lakefront estate. The buyer pool is smaller, more private, and far more deliberate. The marketing has to meet them where they are. The negotiation requires a different kind of intelligence.
We've spent decades learning the rhythms of Southeast Michigan's luxury market — what buyers at this level actually respond to, how to position a property so it speaks for itself, and when patience creates more value than urgency.
- Waterfront estates on Brighton Lake, Woodland Lake, School Lake
- Executive homes in Ann Arbor, Barton Hills, Northville
- Acreage properties in Howell, Hartland, Fowlerville
- New construction in Novi, South Lyon, Milford
- Private and off-market sales for clients requiring discretion

What We've Learned Selling Luxury Homes
After decades and thousands of transactions, these are the things that actually move the needle at this level.
Buyer Qualification
You don't need 50 showings from unqualified buyers walking through your home. We pre-qualify every prospect — proof of funds, genuine intent, and respect for your time and privacy.
Micro-Market Pricing
Standard comps don't tell the full story at this price point. We analyze what actually drives value for your property — lake frontage, lot topography, architectural details, school district, and the intangibles that don't show up on a spreadsheet.
Targeted Buyer Reach
Your buyer isn't casually browsing. We reach qualified prospects through professional networks, relocation firms, wealth advisors, and targeted campaigns that go where the right people already are.
Architectural Presentation
Drone cinematography, twilight photography, lifestyle video tours, and staging that honors the architecture. The visual story has to match the caliber of the property — because first impressions happen online.
High-Stakes Negotiation
High-net-worth buyers negotiate with precision. We understand their priorities, their advisors' concerns, and how to structure deals where both sides feel confident in the outcome.
Complete Discretion
For clients who prefer privacy, we offer pocket listings, off-market outreach, and NDA-protected transactions. Some of our best work never appears on the MLS.

The Appraisal Booster Method
Most agents photograph your home and hope for the best. We take a fundamentally different approach.
Before anything goes live, we analyze your property through an appraiser's lens — identifying the specific improvements and staging decisions that deliver the highest return. Not guesswork. Intentional preparation.
At the luxury level, this isn't about spending $50K on renovations. It's about knowing which $5K investment yields a $50K return — and which "improvements" actually diminish perceived value.

Questions About Selling a Luxury Home
How do you sell luxury homes differently than regular listings?
Luxury homes require a fundamentally different strategy. We use targeted marketing to pre-qualified buyers, architectural photography and drone cinematography, micro-market pricing analysis, and private showings rather than open houses. We also leverage our network of wealth advisors, attorneys, and relocation firms who work directly with high-net-worth clients looking in Southeast Michigan.
What is the Appraisal Booster Method?
The Appraisal Booster Method is our proprietary pre-listing preparation process. We analyze your property through an appraiser's lens to identify high-ROI improvements and staging strategies that maximize appraised value. For luxury properties, this typically yields $75K or more in additional value through intentional, strategic preparation — not expensive renovations.
How long does it take to sell a luxury home in Southeast Michigan?
When priced correctly and marketed strategically, luxury homes in Brighton, Ann Arbor, and Livingston County typically sell within 45-90 days. Waterfront properties often move faster due to limited inventory and consistently high demand. The key is strategic patience — the right buyer at the right price is worth waiting for.
Can you sell my home privately without a public listing?
Yes. We offer several private sale options including pocket listings, targeted buyer outreach through our professional network, and completely off-market transactions. NDAs are available for all parties involved. Many of our highest-value sales never appeared on the MLS.
What price range does RCG Private Client focus on?
Our Private Client division focuses on properties valued at $750K and above, including waterfront estates, executive homes, acreage properties, and luxury new construction throughout Southeast Michigan — primarily in Livingston, Washtenaw, and Oakland Counties.
What areas do you serve for luxury home sales?
We specialize in luxury properties throughout Southeast Michigan including Brighton, Howell, Hartland, Ann Arbor, Barton Hills, South Lyon, Milford, Northville, Novi, West Bloomfield, Fowlerville, and surrounding communities in Livingston, Washtenaw, and Oakland Counties.
Do you work with out-of-state sellers?
Frequently. Many of our luxury clients are out-of-state, relocating, or managing properties remotely. We handle every detail — property preparation, staging, photography, all showings, and closing coordination — so you never need to be physically present. One point of contact manages everything.
How do you determine the right price for a luxury home?
Standard comparables only tell part of the story at this level. We conduct detailed micro-market analysis — evaluating lake frontage, lot characteristics, architectural quality, school districts, privacy factors, neighborhood trajectory, and recent sales of similar-caliber properties. The goal is strategic positioning that attracts serious buyers without leaving value on the table.
