Highlights from some of Connie's Over 70 National TV appearances. She started appearing in 2007 and very frequently in 2008 during the financial crisis affecting the national housing market. Connie appeared with Sentors, Zillow's co-founder and then CEO Spencer Rascoff, Karl Case of the Case-Shiller Index and other notable experts.
This episode aired on The Fine Living Network and featured a home that had previously been listed by 2 different experienced Beverly Hills Realtors, but unfortunately, did not sell. Connie was finally called in to get the home SOLD, but insisted that the task would require the Sellers to make a few changes!
NBC's TV Show "Open House" Episode- Connie De Groot shows a client two properties, one in Calabasas and another in Beverly Hills. Connie later appeared in yet another episode of "Open House" with another client.
Hello Viewer,
This home sat on the market for 6 months (a long time for this neighborhood). Some changes needed to be made for it to sell well. Connie made the process easier by offering to manage it all. Costs were reasonable and the results immediate. The transformation of the kitchen for example, just involved selecting some paint, removing window treatments and changing light bulbs. Knowing what to do is as important as what not to do to maximize profits. Just Call Connie
This internet is the great equalizer - it levels the playing field so there's virtually no difference in the range & reach of any one Realtor or Real Estate company. So, where IS the difference? Connie explains.

Connie De Groot was commonly called on by Neil Cavuto to speak about Real Estate issues.
Connie is a Rain Maker!
We just sold our house for full price in the midst of a pandemic with the stock market in free fall, down over 10,000 points. Why did we sell? Connie De Groot is the primary reason.
Our house was in good condition in a great are. We listed our home with a previous broker who had several great ideas, but after seven months, they were unable to get the price we knew the house was worth.
We considered Connie because she had a recent track record of selling properties that were difficult to sell. We brought her in and asked her how she was able to sell these other homes when ours hadn’t sold. She explained that we needed to make some changes, and have faith in her process. But first, we needed to move out! She would take over as the Captain of the ship, and we would get in her boat.
Connie made the difference. She exudes confidence, backs it up with performance, and makes things happen quickly. Connie’s key is the group of professionals who work on her team.
Improvements were accomplished on a tight schedule in less than a month. Connie also identified improvements that weren’t necessary, saving us about $125,000. Connie didn’t stop working, and like the Energizer Bunny, continued fine-tuning the details long past the start of escrow.
Connie is a Rain Maker. The results were four offers in less than a week on the market. Hallelujah!
Thomas Padden, Home Seller
My husband and I have bought and sold five homes in various markets, and never before have I felt compelled to write a letter of recommendation on behalf of any real estate agent involved on either side of the transaction. Buying and selling a home is consistently listed as one of the most stressful events in a person’s lifetime – all the more reason you want someone who is going to navigate the process with confidence, ease, intelligence, and, most importantly, someone you know has your back. Connie De Groot is that agent. I can say with absolute certainty that if it weren’t for Connie, our current dream home would not be a reality. It was an extremely complicated transaction, and if Connie hadn’t stepped up, gently pushed us to consider additional options, and then executed those options with incredible speed, professionalism, and grace, we wouldn’t be where we are. It isn’t as simple as “we got to move into a home we love.” We got to move into a home we love because of Connie. Our kids are in incredible schools and we have found the area we want to be long-term, because Connie had a vision and helped make it happen. Connie stayed on top of things, despite being on vacation for part of it, and worked closely with all the other players to help ensure our deal didn’t fall apart. We will be forever grateful to Connie De Groot, and will proactively recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. Connie is a beacon of competence, vision, and savvy in the real estate market.
Michelle Truelson, Home Seller
I would highly recommend Connie De Groot. Connie’s years of experience really became apparent during this unusual real estate market. Her strong awareness of the real estate market as well as the local and global environment really helped us successfully navigate through these uncertain times!
Connie thought of everything and did everything! Connie completely took charge of the whole process quickly and efficiently. Giving up control is normally hard for me, but it was easy once I saw how competent and capable Connie was!
Thank you again Connie for making the sale so painless!
Chris Lind- Home Seller
It was a pleasure to work with Connie De Groot on looking for our home in Santa Monica. She is extremely responsive and experienced, and very knowledgeable about the Santa Monica market. She was able to introduce us to the right place at the right price in such a competitive market. During the bidding process, she communicated efficiently with the sell side and always responded to our questions within a couple of minutes. She knows a lot about putting the right amount of conditions in the offer to protect our interests and also help us win the bid. During the house inspection period, she was able to reasonably negotiate the price for repair solutions that satisfied both the sell and buy sides, which help the closing stay on schedule. She also provided good suggestions on decorating the house and trustworthy contractors to do the renovation. We not only are very satisfied with our new home and Connie’s service, but also love her positive energy and enthusiasm. We have worked with other agents in the past, but Connie’s knowledge, competence, and strong sense of responsibility amazed us. We will stay friends and would love to recommend her to anyone who is looking for their dream house! Wei Liu and Lingyun Zhou -Home Buyer
Connie is an amazing broker. She walked us through the whole process and gave us advice. She was professional, persistent, and always available. She was able to find a buyer, and now we are in escrow. We are both very happy with Connie’s work and know that we made the right decision when we hired her as our broker. We would definitely recommend Connie to all our friends. Renzo Casellini

“Here she comes to save the day…” is the best way that I can describe my experience with Connie. With Connie’s expertise, diligence and personal understanding of your needs, she stands above the rest. I was not able to fully use her on my recent real estate transaction although, as a friend, she helped me monitor it. As it goes, everybody knows closing the deal is an art. Offers came in and I was not impressed with the way my agent handled things. When I thought it was going to be a long, contentious back-and-forth with the buyer, Connie called me 45 minutes later and made me an additional hundred thousand dollars. Done deal! As time passed, from beginning to end, I noticed Connie always kept up with the latest buying and selling trends that my original agent had no concept of. Thank you Connie for taking away the pain and anguish of selling my home! I highly recommend her to anybody that’s in need of a truly professional real estate agent.
Michael Dittrick - Home Seller
I never knew how smooth and painless selling a house could be until I enlisted the help of Connie DeGroot. She personifies the word “professional” when it comes to real estate sales. Not only was she more knowledgeable than any other agent I met, she was “hands on” from day one through the very end of closing. At every stage of the process, she was always ten steps ahead, avoiding costly mistakes other real estate agents make. In addition, her sense of interior design and staging was spot on and she completely transformed my house into the perfect show home, full of warmth and heart. Because of this, we had a deal way over asking only a few days after listing. Connie was always there to answer questions and provide reassurance. She hosted the most amazing open house—no detail was spared and everyone commented on how gracious, charming and personable she was. If you want honesty, peace of mind and results, then don’t even bother going to anyone else. There is no doubt that whenever I buy or sell again, Connie will be the only one I’ll call. Shane August

Dear Connie, I want to recognize and congratulate you on your outstanding success in your very short real estate career. I am amazed that after only three years in our industry you have achieved a level in our company that only a few have attained. You have risen to the top 2% of all the 126,000 sales associates we have around the world. What is equally amazing is that you have accomplished this feat in a market that few have success in. The Beverly Hills market is very competitive and extremely difficult to break into. What is even more difficult to accomplish is that when you began selling in this market, you were new to the area and knew only a handful of people. You are an outstanding credit to Coldwell Banker. I also wish to congratulate you for the wonderful job you did on the Fine Living television network show, “Real Estate Confidential.” The way you handled a most difficult listing that two previous real estate sales people had failed to sell was tremendous. I loved how you confronted a delicate situation with professionalism and gentleness, a needed combination in dealing with a seller’s home to get the job done. You are a true “Star.” Connie, it is people like you make Coldwell Banker special. There is nothing more important than providing outstanding service resulting in a satisfied experience for our customers. You are a true asset to our great company and I wish you continued success. Jim Gillespie
President and CEO, Coldwell Banker Real Estate Corporation

Working with you to help prepare your home.
After explaining a strategy Connie believes will bring the most profit, she doesn't just leave a client alone with a Rolodex (or Google) and the task of calling everyone to get things arranged. Connie stands ready to make those calls on behalf of the client and do more with the goal of making the process effortless for her clients.
It’s not always necessary to buy new things or stage a home– you can make drastic improvements to a home’s salability by restyling using the owners’ existing items.
Offering this extra service is something Connie sincerely enjoys. She has done it for herself and many clients over the years.
The easiest thing a Realtor can do is to agree with everything the seller says: agree with the price (even if it’s wrong), agree when the seller doesn’t want to make improvements to the house, and agree when the seller doesn’t want to spend time or money to prepare the home for the market. If Connie does disagree, she takes time to explain why, then offers a different point of view for her client to consider.
