Listing agreements. Probably the most important part of a Realtors job. Getting listings.
I recently came back from a CRS negotiating class. I think it's great that negotiating classes are being taught to Realtors. I did think that a lot of the material was conceptual, here are some things I've learned over the years, that I will share as long as you don't use them when … (5 comments)
I wanted to pass this on to you. It's a clause that I am having my agents put in all of their listing contracts during this market cycle. Maybe forever. I have found that when doing a listing with a Seller, they are more likely to help keep their end of … (5 comments)
RI Real Estate Law - Purchase and Sales Agreements - Single Family
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Seller:
I recently picked up 2 clients, my first client contacted me about seeing a home. I did my duty and asked her if she was working with an agent and had she signed an agreement, Yes, she was working with someone but no she didn't sign anything. She said every house … (0 comments)

Real Estate Law is a lot more complicated than it has ever been in the past. Now when you sign a brokerage agreement with a realtor instead of 1 page or 2 pages it is 14 pages? That is just for the listing. Why is it so long? Well that is … (2 comments)
SELL YOUR HOME GUARANTEED OR WE BUY IT!!!!!!
This is turning into an annual tradition. This year I had my 2nd closing that was to occur on the Tuesday before Thanksgivng. It also had a snafu that precluded us from going to settlement. This time I approached the Listing Agent with the proposal of her client allowing a Pre-Settlement … (1 comments)

OK real estate gurus. Here's a situation you never want to find yourself in. I received an email from a Realtor friend of mine. His client (Seller) found herself at the end of the road called "Dead Deal." It went a little something like this:
In these times when sellers may have trouble selling, leasing your home may be a backup plan. Here are some good rules if you are considering renting. Follow them and they will help make your rental journey more prosperous and less stressful.
I am a little frazzled as I was online last week when I got an e-mail for a standard refinance in my area. You are to respond to the e-mail and they will let you know if you get the assignment or not. I high-balled it thinking, I probably wouldn't get … (2 comments)
I have some awesome resources for people who are looking to buy their first home in SW ohio. This is in addition to the OHFA money program from the state. 
In this Blog, I thought it important to let others out there know about a common practice that causes unnecessary grief. Commonly you will see this take place when multiple contracts or addendums are used in a transaction.
I just spent 9 very long months with someone I thought was a "client". I've always argued against the claim that "Buyers are liars", but it seems that this has been a long learning curve for me. My Broker always told me not to waste my time with people who won't commit … (36 comments)
If you are thinking of selling your home, you're probably wondering whether you should take the custom made window coverings with you - or whether that entertainment unit you had specially made for your family room should really be sold with the house.
Attention Real Estate Agents: 
I was helping a friend stage this weekend and we were chatting about the secret and just living positively, moving on, letting go, etc. She mentioned a book she read and loved it and I found some information on it. 
Here in our area we have buyers representation agreements. They don't seem to be used all the time, but we are being encouraged to use them. This agreement basically signs the buyer up to work with me (or whomever) as their real estate agent.
Unfortunately - most of the general public isn't aware of the distinction... 
Purchasing foreclosures is not for everyone. The process requires patience and diligence. Properties move very quickly. There is less inventory and you may not find "exactly" what you want.
Fixtures in real estate are any items that are screwed, glued, nailed, bolted or otherwise affixed to the house. Generally they are automatically included in a real estate agreement unless specifically said out. 
Real estate is a tough world. Having been in the corporate world for years before going into real estate, I find that it is much more difficult to have a successful career in real estate, but much more rewarding for me personally. Real estate agents do not get paid unless your closing happens. … (0 comments)
We are fortunate to have on our team someone who spent years leading Human Resources for United Airlines, who was responsible for hiring more than 10,000 pilots during his career. Needless to say, his name rose quickly to the top of the list for "who should design our recruiting process".
Is it a good idea to put it in a contract or into a listing agreement? I think it is. I put it in my listings agreements. giving up to ten days if needed to secure financing. why, because, sometimes things go wrong at the last minute. as transaction brokers it is our … (1 comments)
I often work with couples buying a home in Indianapolis- mostly because my sphere is at that age where they are getting married or buying a home with their partner. The hardest thing to do is to get them to compromise on what they want. I often will ask each of … (5 comments)
