If you’re planning on buying a home, you may have already done some shopping around on your own. Perhaps you’ve checked out a few open houses or called the number on a For Sale sign to schedule a private viewing of that property.

Yes, you can do all of that on your own, if you have the time and expertise. However, statistics prove that you’ll be more successful in finding your dream home at the right price with your own personal real estate agent.

A real estate agent, especially one who knows the local market well (like we do), can help you find and buy your ideal home, and make the entire process go smoothly for you. During a viewing, your real estate agent will give you the inside scoop on that property, so you know the full story. Your real estate agent will also point out desirable features, and potential “issues”, that you might otherwise miss.

When it comes time to make an offer, your real estate agent will present and negotiate it on your behalf. If you don’t have your own real estate agent, you would have to deal directly with the seller’s agent, who is legally obliged to work in the seller’s best interests – NOT YOURS.

Bottom line: Your own personal real estate agent is there for you, every step of the way. At least, that’s how we work with our clients.

When buying a home, you want a real estate agent who…

• Takes the time to understand your needs and goals, so you have a true partner in your home buying journey.
• Explains everything clearly and answers your questions, so you’re never in the dark.
• Has expertise in the local market.
• Knows how to find great properties in your price range.
• Will alert you to new listings, quickly, so you get the jump on those opportunities.
• Will advise you on the best price to offer for the home you want.
• Will prepare and present the offer, and skillfully negotiate such things as price, conditions, closing dates, etc. so you get the best deal.
• Will save you potentially thousands of dollars by ensuring you don’t overpay for the property you want.
• Will recommend reputable home inspectors, movers and other professionals you may need.

Not every real estate agent offers all of these services. My clients say that we do. They also tell us how much they appreciate our professionalism, expertise and accessibility.

As your real estate agent, our most important job is to make the home shopping process pleasant and rewarding for you.

We do that in a number of ways.

We regularly recommend properties for viewing that closely match your needs and wants, and are within your price range. That spares you the frustration of visiting homes that aren’t suitable.

We make sure you don’t miss opportunities. When a desirable property suddenly comes on the market, you’re alerted.

We help you schedule viewings that fit your schedule, so there’s little if any inconvenience for you.

Before you view a property, we provide you with in-depth details on the home, so you can make an informed decision. This includes closing dates, market value, and more. Later, if you have questions, we get the answers for you.

When you find a property you like, we give you our honest, professional recommendation as to how well the home meets your needs and wants. You won’t have to make such an important decision without our expert advice.

As your real estate agent, we are committed to getting you into the right home, and with you every step of the way.

 Viewing properties should never be a frustrating ordeal. It’s our job to help make the process easy and productive for you, so you can find the home you want. 

When you view a home on the market that you really want, you can hardly wait to be handed the keys. In fact, you may worry that the property will somehow slip through your fingers. Don’t be. You’ve got an expert by your side. Our job, as your real estate agent, is to ensure you get that home – and at a price that works for you.

The first step is preparing the Offer. This is the document we present to the seller that basically states the price you’re offering, as well as any conditions.

The price we go in with is critical. You want it to reflect the true market value of the property so the seller will take your offer seriously. 

Don’t worry. We know how to prepare a winning offer and get you the property at the best possible price. In fact, we look after your interests throughout the entire process.

 We realize that making an offer can seem like the nail-biting part of the process. It doesn’t have to be. That’s the advantage of selecting a real estate agent who, like us, puts clients first. When you go after a property you really want, you can take comfort in knowing you have an expert on your side… someone who knows how to get that home for you. 

There are few things we enjoy more than saying to a client, “You’ve got the home!” That means that the seller has accepted your offer, conditions have been met, the closing date has been set, and you’ll soon be preparing for moving day.

Just because the purchase has been made doesn’t mean our work for you stops. On the contrary. There are a myriad of other things we’ll do to ensure the process goes smoothly.

For example, we’ll take care of many of the administrative details on your behalf. We’ll work with the seller’s agent, home inspector and your mortgage lender to ensure that all the necessary paperwork has been completed and submitted.

We're well-connected in the local real estate scene and can personally recommend reputable professionals and companies to help you along the way. 

If at any time leading up to moving day you have a question, problem or concern, we’ll be there to help. You can count on us to be your real estate agent before, during and after you cross the threshold into your beautiful new home.

It is important for you to understand the home buying process.

In today’s market, we’re facing multiple offer situations, very competitive, low inventory with high demands. What the heck does that mean?

It means, we have to be strategic in how we structure and present your offer. With our experience and strategies, we can do that for you with confidence to win the offer.

It means, we have to stay on top of market and act on homes that meet your criteria as soon as they hit the market.

It means, you need to have an experienced agent who has your best interest at hand, knows your needs, has your wants in mind and can get you to the closing table and keeping you within your budget and comfort. That's where we come in.
