Buyers Want to Pay Less. Sellers Want More!
Buying or selling a home is an important decision. I urge you to know exactly what the home you want to buy or sell is worth BEFORE you sign a Contract of Purchase or Listing Agreement! Please allow me do a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) at no cost or obligation! This critical market analysis compares your home with homes of similar size, price range & location that are currently on the market, under contract and/or have been recently sold. Once these properties are identified and analyzed, I will use the characteristics, marketing history and tax information of the selected properties to identify a suggested price range for your property. In the end, YOU, of course, will make the ultimate decision on the price you wish to use. Keep in mind that market conditions and marketing strategies can differ from neighborhood or area to the next. My experience in real estate allows me to consider these factors as well when determining an accurate market value of your home. I look forward to hearing from you. Contact me when you are ready for your free CMA!

First Time Buyers >The Perfect House Home buyers must often deal with deferred maintenance or repairs. For example, you may have found a terrific house and like many competent home buyers, you included a structural inspection contingency in your purchase agreement. What happens when you find out that your "perfect" house needs some work? Do you ask the sellers to pay for the repairs? Before you answer "yes", there are some important considerations.
Some contracts require that all of the home's systems, such as plumbing, heating, electrical and central air conditioning, be in working order. In this case, the sellers may be obligated to repair any problems with these systems. Leaky roofs, damp basements, or other structural problems may not be covered, however. If you ask the sellers to make these types of repairs, you may void the contract by doing so. The sellers might prefer to negotiate the repairs to keep from losing the sale. If there are other buyers waiting in the wings with back-up contracts, you run the risk of losing the home.
