What Comes First the Realtor or the Home?

Wed, 28 May 2008 15:37:48 -0500

Hi Everyone,

We have all heard the question what comes first the chicken or the egg, but how does this apply to real estate? I am a Home Buying Expert that just works with buyers in Spokane Washington so let me share my observations with you.

I usually see Spokane Home Buyers driving around, picking up flyers, coming in to open houses, Getting on the internet and jumping from site to site, and they usually like to go shopping before they pick a Realtor to help them. It's low pressure and fun and there is no commitment.

The problem is that before you know it they find a home they want and pick a lender, to get a loan, and a realtor at the last minute to help them. This is a big mistake. Th lender may not be very good and the Realtor may not be very good, and really you don't know because you just met them. You will find out that they aren't very good in the following weeks when the home you love is on the line due to their mistakes.

Homes get lost all the time after the offer and it could usually be avoided with the right Realtor and Lender. Just finding the home is the easy part, Getting it closed and handling all the details that come up to make sure it closes is the difference from a bad Realtor and a a Good one.

Don't learn by losing the house you really wanted or getting it after a horrible transaction. Make your choice of professionals first so you have time to find out if they are really good. After hiring them you will start to see how they handle things like returning calls, getting things taken care of, and their general leel of care and expertise.

How to find the PERFECT HOME in Spokane Washington

Fri, 16 May 2008 18:10:15 -0500

In todays market there are many, many homes to chose from for buyers. How do you, as a buyer, sift through all of them and find the right home? How do you manage your busy lifestyle and get out to see all of the homes?

Well, there is a tool out there that I would greatly recommend. It's called the Home Scouting Report. You can log on, enter your specific information on like the price and area, and it will pull up all the homes that match your criteria, along with all the information about the home, including price, address, current status (pending offer, sold, ect...).

It is important so that you as a buyer don't waste your precious time with homes that have been sold for a month now (but they're still in the paper or magazine), or having agent after agent call you. See, agents usually leave out certain information in their marketing so that they can get your information to call you back.

It's simple and easy, and if you have any questions about a home or would like to get into a home to see it, our contact information is on the page so YOU can call US when you need us. Remember, the best agent has their clients best in mind always!
