Advice Selling

Searching for a home

Despite (and perhaps because of) the great selections in homes in this area, buyers are having a difficult time zeroing in on the home or property that is uniquely appropriate for their needs.

Just remember: Browsing the listings for months is one way search out the deals, but weighing the investment potential of each property can be difficult, and many homes for sale are never listed publicly.

The Home Buying Process

As you begin to think about buying a home, you're probably acutely aware that this is likely to be your greatest investment ever (short of children or a good marriage), and you might be wondering if there's anything you really need to know as you go into this process. This is where your real estate professional comes in. With the help of a trained agent, you can come out on top of a closing that might otherwise have pushed your retirement ahead a decade! This happens all the time to buyers, who are left reflecting on the relatively small commission that would have brought a Realtor into the bargain to help them.

If you'd like to know about the home buying process, I'd love to tell you all about it!

New homes for sale hit the market daily. As your representative, I'll be in regular contact with sellers and other real estate agents to ensure you see all the newest listings right away, whether or not they're made public. Often, clients can put in offers with little or no competition and walk away with an impressive deal on the property of their choice. I will also make sure you see only the properties that meet your needs and investment preferences so that you don't spend time on listings that aren't of interest. As you compare the best deals, I'll provide you with important information about the home, its neighbourhood, zoning issues, utilities, and nearby plans for development.

Branded Background

Many real estate transactions include an extensive negotiating process, and as your agent, it will be my job to represent you here and get the best deal possible. I'll also attend property inspections, make sure any and all agreed-on repair work is carried out, and handle paperwork related to the sale. I can also help set up the financing for your investment, and work directly with a broker to provide you with a seamless service package.

Working with a dedicated agent on your next home purchase will save you time, and add professional assurance to every step of the process. With the guarantee of a solid investment, the decision could also make you more wealthy when it's time to sell.
