About

“We have a very good understanding of technology and the new mediums involved with buying and selling real estate. As we become more dependent upon the internet, we are positioning ourselves to provide our clients with every competitive advantage that is available”.

Doug & Deena Willis are licensed California Real Estate Brokers. They own and operate their own residential brokerage “REMAX Property Concierge“, based in South Pasadena, California. Both have a corporate background in sales and marketing along with a desire to help their clients make informed and educated decisions.

Doug Willis – His analytical expertise is on display at up2daterealestate, a website that features commentary and analysis on the state of the Pasadena housing market. It was started in March 2007. Doug’s understanding of Pasadena real estate is evidenced each month as he recaps the key statistics and includes them in easy to understand charts and graphs.

“We realized the manner in which consumers shopped for real estate was beginning to change. An agent’s website has become outdated and no longer serves a viable purpose. That is why we use a ‘blog’ format. It allows us to provide updated weekly content while offering you a better and much more immediate source of information” , said Doug

Our goal is to educate, inform and occasionally entertain our readers about the day to day events involved in your single most expensive investment….your home. We also encourage your participation and welcome your comments and opinions.

Many of Deena Willis’ clients become her friends. She has an incredibly warm and outgoing personality and offers her clients exceptional service and knowledge as they proceed through the home buying process. Her understanding of color and design is a great attribute to anyone looking for tips on staging their home for sale or to the new homeowner who is in search of some decorating ideas.

Together Doug and Deena make a great team because they each have their own individual skills sets that allows them to conusult and complement each other, which produces a tremendous advantage for their clients.
