Real Estate is my Profession and my Passion! During many years as a Real Estate Broker, I have found that I Love Helping People! My client’s goals become personal. A Buyer or a Seller has many steps to accomplish, and I love handling the details and guiding thru to a successful closing!
One such experience was meeting a wonderful young couple who wanted to sell their home and buy a larger home with a nice yard. They were starting their family. The goal was to be in a new home before their baby was born!!
We got to work immediately! My detailed Free Home Market Analysis provided facts regarding home sales and trends in their neighborhood. A competitive listing price was established. I made some suggestions that would “stage” their home for enhanced showings. The home was on the Market that day! Implementation of my Full Marketing Plan began immediately including: 1) Input to Multiple Listing Service 2) taking many complimenting pictures 3) all advertising prepared 4) Email “blasts” to area agents 5) detailed Home Feature Sheets with pictures (to place in home) 6) Sign installation, and much more! They got their home ready to be shown and We Had Everything In Motion!!
It was time to begin looking for their future home!
Being educated to what the market offered in their price range and preferred area would save us time later.
An offer came in for their home! We negotiated and reached agreement! I provided their attorney with copies of contract, inspections, pre-approvals etc.
We went Shopping! There were 4-5 homes new to the market and we re-visited 3 homes we had seen previously. We wrote an offer, negotiated and reached agreement. They began packing and I met their Home Inspector, delivered copies of everything to their attorney and lender, and monitored the follow-up process on both transactions.
Within 50 days of contracts, we “Closed” on both homes. They had help with the move------ and 5 Days Later Katrina WAS BORN!
Since then, I was asked to help them sell that home and purchase an even larger home on an acre of land. Additionally, I’ve had the pleasure of working with other families they have referred to me!
I consider a Real Estate Agent’s role is that of a “facilitator”, going from Point A to Point B. My business has been built by referrals from satisfied clients.
