You Won't Find Any "Bait and Switch" Photography in My Blog Posts - 02/25/12 09:36 PM
You Won't Find Any "Bait and Switch" Photography in My Blog Posts
Today, I received a telephone call from a prospective client. Apparently, he has been following my blog for awhile. Actually, he has been following several bloggers here. But found as he visited the neighborhoods that fellow bloggers were writing about, the photos contained in those blog posts didn't really represent the neighborhood being written about.
For instance, on one market report he read the average sales price for a home in that community was $173,000 but the photo featured had a large gourmet kitchen with granite counter tops, … (32 comments)

Oops, It Looks Like the Buyer's Agent Made Another Mistake - 02/14/12 12:24 AM
Oops, It Looks Like the Buyer's Agent Made Another Mistake
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote a post entitled, Is Your Buyer's Agent Qualified to Represent You?. This is an addendum to that post.
On Saturday, while out showing properties, I got a text from the above referenced agent. It read:
Buyer's Agent: They took the refrigerator!
Me: That's right, it wasn't in the contract.
Buyer's Agent: All appliances were suppose to stay unless otherwise stated, and they didn't specify that it wouldn't stay. So what do we do about it?
Me: No, the listing did not say … (259 comments)

What is the Cheapest Home Improvement You Can Make? Paint - 02/12/12 11:53 PM
What is the Cheapest Home Improvement You Can Make? Paint
In the current real estate market, sellers need to have a competitive edge.
The easiest and least costly improvement you can make to your home is to give the interior a fresh coat of paint.
Remember, the goal is to appeal to the greatest number of buyers--so no bold colors aloud.
I know many of you are disappointed but neutrals come in a variety of colors these days. There are some wonderful shades of green, gray and beige.
The quickest way to kill a sale is for a buyer to … (15 comments)

How Does A Real Estate Agent Get Paid? - 02/10/12 12:51 PM
How Does A Real Estate Agent Get Paid?
This is a question that far too many real estate agents think consumers understand. Unfortunately, too often that is not the case.
Real estate agents are independent contractors which means we work on 100% commission. We do not get paid until the homes we are selling close.
 
Most agents work for a brokerage company such as RE/MAX, Keller Williams or Coldwell Banker but some may own their own brokerage.

Home Buyers Be Realistic About Your Expectations - 02/02/12 03:17 PM
Home Buyers Be Realistic About Your Expectations
 
I received a call from a buyer client I am working with. He found a property that he absolutely loves and wanted my thoughts on it. As soon as he told me where the home was located, I knew there was a disconnect between the parameters he had given me for the home search and what he was actually looking at. Nothing about this home matched his requirements. This home was about 800 square feet larger, a two-story (he wants a one-story), on a large lot, and $100,000 more than the maximum price … (20 comments)

Is Your Buyer's Agent Qualified to Represent You? - 02/01/12 11:59 PM
Is Your Buyer's Agent Qualified to Represent You?
When I first came into the business, I primarily worked with buyers. It was a good way for me to learn the area and the complexities of writing contracts.
I always worried that I would make a mistake which would cost me my hard earned commission because of an oversight.
Fortunately, that never happened. Why? Because I was very cautious about dotting every i and crossing every t before submitting an offer.
Imagine my surprise, when I received an offer on one of my listings a few weeks back and the agent … (16 comments)
