about george...
George Massey began his real estate investment career while in graduate school at the University of Cincinnati, in 1974. He and his wife Susan, have
now entered the 8th year of their full-time real estate business, where they have assisted clients in both residential and commercial real estate.
George and Susan were the listing associates of Oklahoma City’s first high-rise condominium project, The Classen and have continued by assisting
both buyers and sellers with homes, condominiums, acreages, apartment complexes, storage facilities and various industrial properties all over the
greater Oklahoma City metro. One of their specialties is working with clients in the historic areas, where they currently reside in a 1922 vintage
home.
One special area of expansion has been the downtown and midtown condo market. Here George joined with colleague, Wendy Chong, to assist with
the remaining condominium home sales for one of the first Bricktown projects, Block 42.
As a former union negotiator in San Francisco, George translates his experience and skill to obtaining the best possible price options for both buyers
and sellers and is adept in the final negotiations for inspection repairs and engineering
reports. The Massey’s unique background in the performing arts allow them a very unique
perspective on working with their clients. As professional operatic artists having performed
all over the United States of America and Europe for 10 years, followed by collegiate teach-
ing careers, they have the expertise and knowledge to help achieve the best results for
their clients’ needs.
George is listed in the Who’s Who in American Music, was selected as a judge for the Met-
ropolitan Opera’s National Council auditions. He was elected by the Oklahoma City Council
to serve as a Member of the Historic Preservation Commission in August, 2011.
Very helpful so far in my process of buying a home.
-Andy Bennet
George was a pleasure to work with. He is an expert in his area, is a man of integrity and represented our interests well. We will use him
again on our next transaction.
-Michael Kobel
After working with George on selling our property and helping us purchase another home, we had first hand experience in seeing how
professional George and Susan are. Integrity and professionalism are the stalwarts of George’s ethics combined with the level of knowl-
edge in the housing market and a way of presentation that shows the true value of a home you are selling or buying. My friendship with
George and Susan does not cloud my judgement, because I have bought and sold several homes and my experience with George was one
of the best.
-Kenneth Braud
I met George while moving from Virginia to Oklahoma. As our REALTOR®, George worked with our corporate relocation firm to find and
purchase a new home in the area. George was very knowledgable of the area. He was always on time and very professional in all he did.
If I were to need a real estate professional in this area, I would have no reservations with George as my REALTOR®.
-Alan Wiberg
It has been a great pleasure to work with you. Thank you for your sincere willingness to help with anything in need. I really appreciate
you! We have already begun enjoying the condo :) Please keep in touch my friend!

Working with George Massey is a genuine pleasure. George has the ability, using his knowledge and experience to provide the necessary
guidance without prejudice or pushiness. Mr. Massey is the consummate professional. I would recommend his services to anyone.
-Philip Beyer
George was recommended to me by a friend and I couldn’t have been happier about my experience with him. George sent me a number
of listings to look through and was always available when I chose to view a home. Being a first time home buyer, George went above and
beyond to make the process easy for me. I have been in my home for almos 2 year now, and George is still available to answer questions
that I have. If you are looking for a realtor, I would highly recommend George Massey.
-Chris Giffhorn
George has been an excellent asset helping us locate and evaluate homes in Oklahoma City’s historical neighborhoods. He’s experienced,
knowledgable, tenacious, and generally a pleasure to work with.
-Zach Osko
George & Susan helped us not only sell our house quickly, but for a respectable profit in the midst of a housing recession. Much of that
success is due to their bringing buyers best suited to our unique property. They were professional, knowledgeable and guided us through-
out, making the whole process as hassle-free as possible.
-Jason Blankenship
I just wanted to thank you for all the effort you put into selling my uncles home. You were great keeping all of us informed through
phone and e-mails. This has been a difficult time for my uncle and I appreciate your diligence and professionalism.

pricing iseverything
The first 30 days of your listing period are the most crucial, especially in a smaller buyer market. That’s when the most
qualified, ready-to-buy prospects are looking for a home just like yours to be offered for sale. Together, we’ll decide on the right
price and marketing strategy to capture their interest and create a sense of urgency.
during the
listing periodWe’ll decide together on how you’d like your home to be shown for maximum exposure. You’ll be contacted for showings by me or our office staff. It usually takes
a few days to receive feedback from showing REALTORS®. I’ll follow up and contact you on a scheduled basis to update you on comments.
I’m available. Please call me anytime during office hours with your questions or concerns. If I’m with a client, I’ll respond to you as quickly as I can.
If your home is under contract, please prepare for a 30 Day Listing Checkup. At this time, we’ll review showings, current market activity in your area, buyer
reactions, and your pricing strategy. I’ll keep you informed, so you don’t lose any valuable market time.

offers to purchaseI’ll be with you every step of the way. As an experienced negotiator, I’ll present all written offers for your consideration, your questions, and point out important
points that affect you. With the preparation of a Seller’s Expense Estimate, you’ll have a close idea of the net amount, you’ll receive with a particular offer.
under
contractThe buyer’s loan process, appraisal, and title work will be underway. The buyer will perform inspections on your property. The inspection process in today’s market
is detailed but is generally an agreement in your purchase contract. I’ll help you negotiate any repair requests to keep your transaction moving toward closing.

your expenses and know what net proceeds to expect.
