Sell Smarter. Net More.
With Botti Realty.
Strategic pricing, professional marketing, and 22 years of Derby-area expertise — put to work for you.
Your Home Deserves More Than a Sign in the Yard
I've seen what happens when sellers choose an agent based on the lowest commission or the biggest promises. They sit on the market too long, accept a lower offer, and wonder what went wrong. Selling a home in the Derby area requires a precise combination of accurate pricing, professional presentation, and strategic marketing — and it requires someone who knows which buyers are actively looking in your neighborhood right now.
My sellers consistently net more than the asking price because I don't guess at pricing — I analyze it. Every Comparative Market Analysis I prepare draws on hyper-local sales data: specific streets, specific conditions, specific buyer demographics. I know that a well-maintained Cape in the Hawthorne section of Derby prices differently than the same square footage on Birmingham Boulevard.
Beyond pricing, I invest real money in marketing your home. Professional photography, targeted digital advertising, and personal outreach to my buyer network ensure your listing reaches the right people — not just everyone scrolling Zillow at midnight.

Your 6-Step Selling Journey
A transparent, step-by-step roadmap from decision to closing.
Free Consultation & CMA
Brian visits your home, listens to your goals, and prepares a detailed Comparative Market Analysis using real, hyper-local data. You'll leave the consultation with a clear pricing recommendation and a concrete marketing plan — no obligation, no pressure.
Preparation & Staging
First impressions drive offers. Brian provides targeted staging advice that maximizes your home's appeal to today's buyers — what to declutter, what to highlight, and what minor improvements deliver the best return. He also coordinates professional photography that makes your listing stand out online.
Launch & Market
Your listing goes live simultaneously across the Connecticut MLS, Zillow, Realtor.com, Homes.com, and Brian's social media channels. Targeted Facebook and Instagram advertising reaches buyers specifically searching in your price range and area. Your home is also promoted directly to Brian's active buyer list.
Showings & Open Houses
Brian manages all showing requests, provides flexible scheduling, and conducts open houses when strategically appropriate. He accompanies or monitors every showing and provides you with feedback from each prospective buyer so you always know how the market is responding.
Review Offers & Negotiate
Brian analyzes every offer not just by price, but by financing contingencies, down payment strength, proposed closing timeline, and inspection terms. He presents each offer clearly, advises you on counter-offer strategy, and negotiates with the buyer's agent to maximize your final proceeds.
Close & Move Forward
From accepted offer to closing table, Brian coordinates inspections, appraisals, legal documents, and lender requirements. He ensures nothing falls through the cracks so you can focus on your next chapter — with full confidence that the transaction is handled professionally.
The Botti Realty Marketing Approach
Brian doesn't just list your home — he markets it with intention across every channel where today's buyers are looking.
Professional Photography
Every listing receives professional high-resolution photography. Studies consistently show that listings with professional photos sell 32% faster. Brian invests in the right presentation because it directly impacts your sale price.
MLS & Major Portals
Your listing is entered into the Connecticut MLS the same day we launch, distributing automatically to Zillow, Realtor.com, Homes.com, Trulia, and over 200 buyer-facing websites within hours of going live.
Targeted Social Media Ads
Brian runs targeted Facebook and Instagram advertising campaigns that reach buyers specifically searching for homes in your price range in New Haven County — reaching people who haven't yet found your listing on the portals.
Direct Buyer Outreach
Brian maintains an active database of buyers currently searching in the Derby area. When a new listing matches their criteria, they hear about it directly from Brian — before it's even in their Zillow alerts.
Realtor Network Promotion
Brian actively promotes your listing to the broader Greater New Haven REALTOR® community. When buyer's agents know about a new, well-priced listing before it launches, that early buzz creates the kind of urgency that drives multiple offers.
Open Houses & Private Showings
Strategic open houses create competitive energy among buyers. Brian manages all showing logistics, provides feedback reports after every visit, and ensures your home is always presented in its best light from the first showing to the last.

What Derby-Area Sellers Say
Working with Brian was the best decision we made when selling our Derby home. He knew every street, every comp, and got us $18,000 over our asking price. We couldn't believe it. His marketing brought in three offers in the first weekend — and he knew exactly which one to take.Margaret T. Home Seller · Derby, CT
Brian sold our Ansonia condo in just 11 days — and for full asking price. His marketing strategy was thorough, his follow-through was impeccable, and his honesty throughout the entire process made this the smoothest real estate transaction we've ever been through.Robert M. Home Seller · Ansonia, CT
Brian handled the sale of my father's Naugatuck property during a difficult time for our family. His professionalism and compassion throughout the entire process meant everything to us.
