Having worked exclusively with Buyers the first 7 years of my real estate career I got to learn the buying side of real estate so expertly that it was really hard not to stay a buyers agent for the rest of my career. The problem was my buyers, who eventually became sellers, wanted to me (and only me) to sell their homes a few years later but as an exclusive buyers agent I could not do it. My commitment to representing one side of the transaction made me lose sight of my real intent and that was to be the best agent for my clients. Knowing what buyers wanted I could work with a seller to help them sell their home faster, with the best price , and with less headaches.If you know buyers you can help the Sellers sell. Every Seller has to have a Buyer so I knew where to look,  how to get the Buyers interest and how to close a deal. Everyone ultimately has to go back to the basic rule of real estate. The Buyer wants to buy and the Seller want to sell.

As an agent my job is to help these consumers find each other and get the deal done. No smoke, no mirrors -just service and good old hard work! We work with Sellers and Buyers thoughout the Central Illinois market. Our location is central to the metropolitan area and this helps us be anywhere we need to be in a short time.

I work with Buyers, Sellers, Landlords, Tenants, Investors, Banks, businesses, families, singles, retirees, and First Time Homebuyers. Whatever your need I can help you solve your real estate problems. Just "Ask for Alice". I am the answer to your real estate question. Where other agents quit my job is just kicking into gear. I am going to give you the "wow" service you want. If you have a hard to sell property or want to find that special home you need to Ask for Alice to get your wants answered. I am the answer to real estate problems!

Leading the company into the educational field in real estate has taught me that one of the most important things you can do for your career and for the company is to bring deserving intelligent value based people into real estate. Not only do you build a formidable sales force, but you gain the quality and type of agents that adhere to your strict standards of expertise in real estate transactions. Teaching at least 5 classes a year I have come face to face with some of the best of the best in the real estate profession. Not only do I guide them through prelicense text work I try to infuse the values that mold them into the real estate agent perfected. By strengthening and amplifying the ethical treatment and fiduciary duties owed to a client they are compelled  to reach beyond what is standard business practice to attain super agent status. If you think it you can do it. Nothing can stand in the way of a desire to go beyond boundaries to become the exceptional agent.

Not only do I teach them, but I learn something from them at every turn. Exposure to all levels of real estate knowledge can provide insight to what is and what is not working in the real estate profession. When an student comes to me because they had a bad experience with their own agent and says I can do this better - I have a much easier job. Yes we can be better if we so choose and they're one step ahead already. Knowing you can do better means you will do better.

I have been an Exclusive Buyer's Agent. I have trained buyer agents. I have a Broker's license. I've owned my own real estate company and prior to that I owned other businesses. I have a Pre-License Instructor Certificate. I am licensed to sell real estate in Florida although I am not active in that state today. My depth of knowledge in real estate is extrmely broad and wide ranged. I have a desire to know more, sell more, excel more, show more, and be the best agent I can be.

When you need someone who can give you expert advise or guide your through a tough transaction you need all the experience you can find. Not having proper representation can cause you to lose a great deal of money or spend a lot of time which can cost you even more money.

We fine tune the marketing of each proeprty we list. Offering a top notch property is going to bring in a quick sale with the best price and terms. Having an agent to help with the best way to market your property is going to make your life a lot easier. Following the directions of that agent will make you the most money!

All of the marketing in the world is not going to sell an unmarketable property. Taking that property to its foreseeable potential is going to draw the buyers out. Knowing where to market what type of property will make it sell, too. You have to have an agent like Alice with that skill to get to SOLD!  When you hire Alice you get the skill, advise and results you need.

No one does it better. We have used Alice to buy several investment properties and our home. She has proven on many occasions that there's power in knowledge. We have saved thousands and thousands selling and buying. We'd recommend Alice without hesitation to anyone. She is honest and professional. T. & T. Braun

We loved working with Alice. I am amazed at how quick we sold our home and how much she did to help us get into our new home. She couldn't have worked harder. Ryan and Stacy B.

It was a tough sale but Alice stuck in there for us and we got our price.We sold quickly and felt like we had the best service ever. Alice did a fabulous job and is our agent for life. We recommend her over and over. Joe and Christine S.

I had doubts when I started the homebuying process, but Alice gave me confidence and helped me become a first time buyer. There is no way I could have gone through this without the help and advice I got. My home inspection on the home I was buying was scary, but we got the problems worked out. I feel so much safer knowing that we got the Seller to fix the safety hazards. I love this house!! B. McDonald

When we found the home we needed we called Alice right away. She helped us get our house on the market and we sold quickly and bought our new home together. It had to work out quickly and it had to be the right price or we couldnt have bought. All went better than we hoped. A couple years have passed and we are now thinking of buying a bigger house ( two more babies). Alice is the agent we know to call. Jen and Dave P.

My Mom didn't want to sell and move to assisted living but she knew it was best. We were all raised there and my sisiter and I even were sad to see the house go. I called Alice because I knew she could get it sold without stress on Mom. When the buyer offer came in and Mom learned that a young family with small kids would live there she couldn't wait to let it happen. Thanks for the gentle, kind, and thoughful manner you gave my Mom. She was also amazed at the price! That was a bonus! Jon and Mom

After having a really bad experience with a real estate agent I was not happy to have Alice Moss knock on my door and ask to show my house to a buyer she was working with. I was selling on my own to save money on commission and not have to work with another rotten agent. She remained polite even though I was a jerk. Her buyers did love the house and they ended up writing an offer. I feel so bad that I became like the person who treated me poorly and took it out on Alice. She was a true professional and did a wonderful job helping her buyers. Why couldn't I have had her as an agent my first time? You are lucky to have her in your office. J. Simms
