Comparative Market Analysis

A written report of the transactions in the neighborhood to identify similar properties that has sold recently and is currently on the market in an effort to determine a realistic price for the subject property.

Market Preparation

Improving the condition of the home, "setting the stage" before showings, and knowing what to do when the property is being shown are just a few of the things that will help maximize the marketing efforts. We’ll take time to examine your home and explore the alternatives to showcase your property.

Homeowner’s Analysis

This is a report that illustrates the tax advantages and the investment potential of home ownership. It demonstrates how the tax savings from the interest and property tax deductions will reduce the impact of a house payment. The investment results from anticipated appreciation and reduction in the unpaid balance through loan amortization.

Special Services

If you have to vacate the property prior to selling, special services can be arranged to help you with your specific needs such as: collecting the mail, removing advertisements, maintaining the yard, turning off the lights at night, setting the security or sprinkler systems, or other tasks.

Financing Alternatives

Attractive financing can actually shorten the marketing time and increase the sales price. I stay up-to-date with the types of mortgages that are available and maintain business relationships with mortgage professionals to provide choices. Some of the reports that I can supply you include: buyer qualifications, 80-10-10 mortgage, 75-15-5 mortgage, 15- year vs. 30-year mortgage, Adjustable Rate vs. Fixed Rate mortgages, rent vs. own, and repurchase analysis. These will help buyers and sellers make better decisions.

Buyers may be unwilling to discuss their actual situation with a seller because of their opposing objectives. The buyer is trying to get the home for the lowest price and the seller is obviously, trying to get the highest price. Buyers may feel that they are giving away their advantage in the negotiation process by letting the seller know personal things. Solutions that might be best for the buyer may not be good for the seller because of the costs associated with different packages. It is valuable to have someone who is familiar with various mortgages to guide the parties involved 

When a seller enters into a listing agreement with a real estate agent, a legal relationship called agency is created. This requires that the agent put the seller’s interest above their own interest. The duties required include loyalty, obedience, disclosure, confidentiality, accounting in dealings and reasonable skill and care.

Buyers can obtain this same type of representation by entering into a buyer agency agreement. The advantage is that they will have a professional looking after their interests in an investment that will most likely be the largest that they have made. Considering the advantages of having a professional represent you.
