Get to Know Lynne Joyce

Hi there, I'm Lynne Joyce, an Associate Broker specializing in the marketing and sales of unique Seacoast properties in New Hampshire and Southern Maine.

Roots in Real Estate

My roots in the real estate industry extend to my teenage years, when my mom managed her own independent real estate company. When selecting a firm to launch my own career, Tate & Foss Sotheby's International Realty was the only choice. My husband, Shawn, and I purchased a home listed with the agency, so I had first-hand experience as a customer. With my background, enthusiasm and the unmatched depth of the agency's real estate expertise, it was destined to be a winning combination. I have been a consistent multi-million dollar producer. Tate & Foss Sotheby's International Realty is a long-established, independently owned and operated real estate agency with deep roots in the Seacoast communities of New Hampshire and Southern Maine. Our exceptionally experienced team of Brokers is well-known throughout the Seacoast. Although having a reputation for selling a vast majority of the Seacoast's luxury homes, these properties represent only a portion of our residential listings. We believe all homes are created equal. Properties of all types and prices, from modest homes to sprawling estates, are sold with the same commitment and personal attention that meet the individual needs and concerns of their Buyers and Sellers.

Education and Experience

I earned a BA (Psychology/Business Administration) from the University of New Hampshire and an MBA (Marketing Management) from Northeastern University. I have 20+ years of experience in marketing (planning, research and communications), advertising, client services and project management for companies including Putnam Investments, Tidewatch Market Research and MicroArts Creative Agency.

Diverse Clients, Diverse Needs

My clients come from a wide variety of backgrounds with a range of needs and requests. From oceanfront cottages in Kittery Point to townhouses in Portsmouth's Market Square and luxury homes in New Castle's Wentworth By-The-Sea to family homes in Rye cul-de-sac neighborhoods, I leverage my detailed knowledge of the Seacoast market to help each client achieve their goals. As an Energy Smart Real Estate Specialist, I am skilled at advising my clients about energy efficiency issues that impact the decision-making process, whether buying or selling.

Professional Affiliations

I am a member of the Seacoast Board of Realtors©, New Hampshire Association of Realtors©, Maine Association of Realtors©, National Associations of Realtors©, and Northern New England Real Estate Network.

Community Involvement

As part of my ongoing commitment to the Seacoast, I have supported many local organizations, including the following: Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Seacoast, Child and Family Services of New Hampshire, City Year, Coastal Conservation Association, Face the World International, Portsmouth Chamber of Commerce, Portsmouth Rotary, Rye Senior Serve, Seacoast Repertory Theater, The Music Hall, NH Public Radio, Portsmouth Historical Society, American Lung Association's Cycle the Seacoast.

At Home on the Seacoast

I live in Rye NH and, with the exception of a few years in Boston MA, am a lifelong resident of Southern NH. Since leaving a fast-paced life in the city, I have fully enjoyed a more down-to-earth lifestyle on the Seacoast. Shawn and I walk the beach every morning with our black Labrador Retriever, Beau. We are members of the Wentworth By-The-Sea Marina. When I am not meeting with clients or working on their behalf, my favorite pursuits include tennis, downhill and cross-country skiing, hiking, yoga, cycling, international travel, creative marketing projects and spending quality time with friends and family.

Why Buyers Choose to Work with Me

To Save Time & Protect Your Interests! There simply isn't enough time in a day to accomplish all that you'd like to! We're all pressed for time and the added task of finding a new home (never mind negotiating and closing the deal) can feel a bit overwhelming. If you are blindly searching through real estate guides and websites, calling on signs, attending open houses and visiting multiple real estate offices, you're simply working too hard.

Partnering with a Buyer Agent who understands your unique needs and goals, will ensure that you have access to important data on all homes for sale through the Multiple Listing Service (not just one agency's exclusive listings), and basic facts about For Sale By Owner homes, that match your search criteria.

Save and quickly access your favorite searches. See property addresses and maps automatically. Save your favorite properties in one place. Receive email alerts for new listings and newly priced listings.

I always strive to streamline the search process and provide professional expertise to protect your interests as well. I will point out reasons not to buy a particular property, negotiate aggressively for the best price and terms, include protective contingency clauses in contracts to guard your interests, and most importantly, maintain the confidentiality of any information that could jeopardize your bargaining position. Working with a Buyer Agent will make the process of buying a home more manageable and much smoother...and leave you with a satisfied feeling that you were protected in all aspects of your transaction, from location and negotiation to inspection and closing the deal!

Why Sellers Choose to Work with Me Your home may be your most valuable possession. If you agree, you need a professional to market your property and not just sell it, as you can do that yourself. And marketing is much more than listing, which is often limited to collecting facts, writing ad copy, taking photos and uploading to the MLS. Any Realtor can list your property, but not every Realtor is capable of both creatively and strategically marketing your property and managing the transaction with professionalism every step of the way. With your greatest investment on the line, your decision is much too important to just choose an agent who is a mere acquaintance or that you found randomly on the Internet. It is critical to choose the right Realtor to help you gain exposure to the right type of Buyer for your property and to help you navigate the selling process smoothly. Your choice deserves serious consideration and investigation. The keys to marketing a unique Seacoast property effectively... Partner with a Realtor/Broker who has a strong background in marketing and proven success in positioning, packaging and promoting property to sell. My passion is marketing, plain and simple. My goal is to learn as much as possible about your property, identify which segments of the buyer market are best suited for your property, and develop a custom Property Marketing Plan to help you achieve your goal of selling. I earned an MBA with a concentration in Marketing Management, a BS with a concentration in Psychology/Business Administration and an Energy Smart Real Estate Specialist designation...a winning combination! Partner with a polished professional who has deep client service and project management experience. Sellers want to work with a responsive Realtor. I am well equipped with technologies that improve response time (i.e. email, efax, Internet, laptop computer and smartphone). When you contact me regarding your home, you can rest assured that I will respond promptly. Real estate transactions can be complicated and intimidating, so an agent's "foundation" (that is, their combination of qualifications, skills and affiliated agency) is extremely important. There are many steps involved, including Buyer negotiations, contracts, state and federal laws, disclosure requirements, home inspections, title examination, escrow and so much more. You don't want to go into a closing with doubts. As a former Director of Client Services in the marketing/advertising industry, I understand what it takes to manage a project to the satisfaction of my clients. Enjoy the tangible benefit of my experience and knowledge for a smooth and successful property sale. Partner with an exclusive agency that typically lists and sells unique Seacoast properties, knows the local market and has agents with corresponding spheres of influence. Tate & Foss Sotheby's International Realty is a long-established, independently owned and operated real estate agency with deep roots in the Seacoast communities of New Hampshire and Southern Maine. The exceptionally experienced team of Brokers is well-known throughout the Seacoast. Although having a reputation for selling a vast majority of the Seacoast's luxury homes, these properties represent only a portion of our residential listings. We believe all homes are created equal. Properties of all types and prices, from modest homes to sprawling estates, are sold with the same commitment and personal attention that meet the individual needs and concerns of their Buyers and Sellers. Tate & Foss Sotheby's International Realty is committed to the highest standards of fairness and full disclosure to both Sellers and Buyers. Set a realistic price for the market. A home priced competitively and appropriately will attract more Buyers than a home priced above market value. My goal is to help you establish a listing price that fits into your custom Property Marketing Plan. This can only be accomplished with a thorough understanding of the market. I will develop a detailed Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) for your unique Seacoast property. The CMA and Marketing Plan are painstakingly prepared to ensure that you feel comfortable and confident as we move forward. Craft a solid positioning strategy to "package" your property to appeal to your target buyers. Your unique position will serve as the foundation for all marketing efforts, including home staging, advertising copy, photographs and potential Buyers' "onsite experience" during showings. It is important to weave a consistent thread through all marketing efforts for greater impact. Develop a strong Internet presence. The Internet brings your home to the world audience of Buyers. Today, the majority of Buyers are starting their home search on the Internet. If this makes sense to you, marketing must be directed and focused to the Internet marketplace and supported by traditional media, to which many Buyers still respond favorably. The Realtor.com Showcase Listing Enhancements Marketing System, Google AdWord Campaigns, Trulia and Craigs List are just some of the tools Lynne leverages to market your property online. The goal is to attract, educate and screen Buyers before they visit your property to streamline the process and save you time. Spread the word among the Seacoast brokerage community via creative broker open houses and broker-focused communications. Real estate brokers are powerful word-of-mouth marketers. The more quickly they are informed of the property and have an opportunity to see it first hand, the more likely the right Buyer is to turn up within the first few weeks of the listing period. Savvy property owners are selling their homes with Lynne Joyce. I know the Seacoast market and do what it takes to creatively, strategically and professionally market unique homes.
