Your real estate and home buying experience should be exciting and fun! A Realtor® makes substantial contributions to the real estate transaction. A loan originator and a loan processor know loan details and what the lender wants. The title company works for the lender and reveals problems that are present on the title to the property, the survey, easements, etc. Problems that arise must be solved by you and/or the person you choose to help you, either your Realtor® or attorney. 

No real estate transaction is "just a matter of paper work." Many times there are problems after the "paperwork" is done. Your Realtor® will know when contact with an attorney is necessary.

Negotiations concerning price, condition, personal property, and personal rights in the transaction are all services offered and handled by your Realtor®. Negotiations can be extremely intense for a person buying or selling real estate because many emotions are involved and much is at stake. It’s critical to have good, objective counseling and representation in that process. The outcome affects many parts of your life! Your Realtor® should manage your entire transaction, following all details with other involved parties, to the closing table. That is called "contract management." One detail in writing that contract can make a critical difference to you as a buyer or a seller. Knowledge and experience make a difference here! Also, no one knows market value and trends like your Realtor®.

We make it happen ...

Not all real estate licensees are the same! Only those who are members of the National Association of Realtors and display the ® logo subscribe to a strict code of ethics and are expected to maintain a higher level of knowledge of the process of buying and selling real estate.

... you make it home!

Real estate agents are generally paid from the sales commission paid by the seller when a transaction closes. Often a great deal of "behind the scenes" work, expertise and many hours are required to bring a transaction to a successful closing. Agents have expenses and financial obligations, just as you do. It is to your benefit to choose one Realtor® to work for and with you. The Realtor® will respect your loyalty and respond with sincere commitment to you.  HUD has an excellent link to help you in choosing a realtor.  Click here to see this link.
