Not content with merely working for another realtor, Philip Michael Caven put out his own shingle in March of 2003 with the establishment of Caven Real Estate Associates LP. Caven’s firm focuses on client relocation and has developed certain packages that clients may utilize to make their move easier. Aiming to be a full service real estate agency, Caven and his associates will often take their clients out for a guided tour of the city serving a two-fold purpose: to give the clients a better feel for the city, and allowing them to find just the perfect spot for their urban relocation.

Caven has developed other methods of reaching clients as well. For one, he has built the website, www.homecentercity.com, which seeks to educate the potential buyer and seller in the many facets of real estate sales and allows the viewer to search for homes that are for sale in Philadelphia. It also has a featured area where the latest properties that are currently on the market are shown with a brief description. To make it easier for clients to price not only their own homes, but to see what homes are selling for in a particular area, they can enter the address into the home value calculator which provides the last 10 properties that were sold in the previous year and the prices at which they were sold.

Michael Caven and his associates love to deal with people who are first time buyers as they have built their company on providing newcomers to the field with empowerment, education, and support. Understanding that purchasing a home can be stressful for a new client, Caven makes it his business to keep them relaxed and provides them with personalized care on all levels. Investing is also one of the business’ goals, and among their speculative ventures they converted a 140 year old building into a multi-level condo, which remains one of their finer achievements. Caven especially likes to offer $30,000 parcels of land that may be converted to condominiums and has a history of buying old buildings and renovating them into fancy restaurants and the like.

Philip Michael Caven strives to keep a good reputation among sellers because of the realistic assessments they make concerning their property. They do their best to price their property at what it is really worth and not some unrealistic figure that may raise their hopes. It is because of these and many other factors that Caven Real Estate Associates is becoming a successful and respected agency throughout the Philadelphia Metro area.
