My Services for
Home Buyers:
- Exclusive representation
- I promote and protect only your interests throughout the
transaction. I represent you, not the seller. Unlike
some agents, I never do
dual-agency (represent both the buyer & seller in the same transaction).
- Buyer Education - I
will review and educate you on the entire
buying process right from the start so you know what to expect every step of
the way.
- Financial Counseling
- I have resources to help you navigate the maze of loan programs available
to today's buyer to find the one that best meets your needs.
- Needs and Wants
- I will work with you to prioritize your specific needs and wants
in a new home, including location, price, and amenities.
- Property Identification
- I will identify properties in both
area MLS systems which meet your criteria and counsel you on their specific
advantages or drawbacks. Furthermore, I will set up email alerts which
notify you immediately when new properties meeting your criteria come on the
market.
- Appointments and Showings
- I will work with other realtors and/or owners to set up showing appointments and
I will accompany you to visit the properties selected.
- Disclosure Review -
I will review the seller's property disclosures with you in detail.
- Negotiation Strategy
- I will prepare a complete market
analysis to enable you to see how much money similar homes have sold for in
the recent past. I will make recommendations on a negotiation strategy
for you.
- Contract Preparation
- I will assist you in structuring an offer and prepare all the necessary
paperwork.
- Negotiation - Working
with you and the seller's representative, I will negotiate the terms of the
offer in your best interests until it is acceptable to both parties.
- Third Party Providers
- I will make recommendations for attorneys, home inspectors, tradesmen, and
the other third party providers that you will need.
- Home Inspection - I
will accompany you at the home inspection and will ensure that your attorney
is aware of any issues uncovered.
- Pre-Close Activities
- I will work with both attorneys, your lender, and the seller's
representatives to resolve all of the issues which will arise between offer
acceptance and closing.
- Final Walkthrough -
I will accompany you during the final walkthrough and will counsel you on
some of the items you should be looking for at that time.
- Closing - I will
counsel you as to what you should expect at the closing table and I will
accompany you at your closing.
- Post Closing - I can
make recommendations as to vendors you might need after closing on your new
home (movers, painters, etc).
