Real estate is a business, but it’s more than just dollars and cents, according to Hillary Weiss, an agent with ARC Realty in Mountain Brook
“I have a true passion for helping clients,” Weiss says. “I love being part of their journey. Seeing their excitement and relief when we find the perfect home or secure a great deal makes all the hard work worth it.”
Weiss saw that hard work rewarded in 2024 when she was named Best Real Estate Agent by Mountain Brook Magazine.
“It’s an incredible honor,” Weiss said, especially given her ties to the community.
She’s a Mountain Brook native and lives there with her husband and two daughters.
“I love being an agent in Mountain Brook because of the strong sense of community and deep connections I have with people here,” she said.
When asked what makes her a good agent, Weiss cited her market expertise and strong communication skills.
“I also have a sharp eye for market trends, pricing and negotiations, ensuring my clients get the best outcome, and I help clients navigate every aspect of the process,” she says.
The market for spring in Mountain Brook promises to be “very active,” Weiss says.
“Demand in our area remains strong and inventory remains tight, so well-priced homes are selling quickly and often receiving multiple offers,” she says.
Spring is a great time to sell homes, but Weiss offers some tips to sellers.
“Focus on curb appeal, because first impressions matter,” she says. “Inside, decluttering and staging make a big impact. Pricing is also key, so work with a knowledgeable agent who understands the market.”
