Referrals happen in the real estate field every day. Because of our extensive connections, we can introduce you, a friend or a
family member to top agents throughout the country. We will work with these
agents to develop the best home-buying strategy for you. This week we are in Florida for the Mike Ferry Superstar Retreat, connecting with the top agents in the world. There are agents from Canada, Australia, Italy and England meeting to discuss different marketing strategies and how we can better our selves and our service.
Our promise? To get our sellers’ homes sold for the most amount
of money in the least amount of time.
Because the real estate market is always evolving, you need
to work with real estate agents who are willing to continually educate
themselves about the marketplace. That’s what we do, and we recommend only real
estate agents who do the same.
So if you or someone you know has a real estate need
anywhere in the country, call us at (626) 441-3449. Or,
send me email at megmiddleman@gmail.com.
We will be happy to work with you!
These days there are a lot more
buyers in most markets than there are sellers and what that means is if you are
out looking for your dream home, you will need to take some extra steps to make
sure you can get the home you want.
That is why I have put together a few
things you can do to make sure you get the home. Everyone knows that for most
people finding the perfect home takes time. After many searches, numerous views
and countless other things you need to find exactly what you are looking for –
imagine losing the home to your buying competition! Here are four things you can
do to make sure that does not happen to you.
Get a Preapproval From Your Lender
Buyers that walk into a home – see
it, like it and know they want to buy it – will most likely do better if they
are holding a letter from their lender stating that they can afford it.
Especially in today’s market when more and more sellers are seeing multiple
offer situations, you need an edge over other buyers and sometimes all it takes
is having a preapproval from the bank. In fact, in many cases now sellers will
not even consider a buyer without a preapproval. Note that a preapproval is not the same thing as a prequalification.
Find a Knowledgeable Real Estate
Agent
Many people have no idea that having
an experienced and qualified real estate agent can and does make all the
difference in a successful negotiation. Not only do you need someone that knows
the market very well, but also you will benefit from someone that can be
aggressive with your terms and price.
Don’t Procrastinate – Make Your Offer
Quickly
With today’s fast-paced marketplace a
lot of buyers are stunned to find that they had waited too long to make an
offer only to discover that the home sold to someone else. Waiting even one
week can have a negative impact on your plans to buy a house so if you know you
like it, have decided to make an offer on it, don’t wait!
Choose an Agent that is Well-Known
Within the Profession
It is one thing to find an agent that
is known among clients – but when you are working with someone that has a
strong rapport with their peers it can have a very positive impact on your real
estate endeavors. During negotiations and otherwise, well-respected agents
garner far better results for their clients.
