The Local Real Estate Agent, Broker Lives Where The Properties Are.

When you vacation into a new area, you ask for directions, you look for help in figuring out how not to waste money or time.

You want the most efficient, richest experience possible. Your local real estate agent, broker is the same kind of service provider. Efficient, helpful, knowledgeable because of experience.

Because he or she lives where the property listings come on the market and head to a real estate closing. If handled right the conversations are had to share the local news on how things roll best. The lay of the land of the local turf that he or she knows oh oh so well. local porch talks work best photo

So besides the help arriving at fair market value, for exposure of the property listing to attract a buyer, more assistance happens from the lead reindeer with the REALTOR's "R".

If. The buyer and seller will take the advice.

Follow the suggestions based on past listings, real estate sales where the best route from listing to the real estate closing is reinforced over and over. 

So little things beyond the lists of what buyers stub their toe on and what sellers need to do in a real estate sale. The selection of the attorney handling the sale is key to life seconds bleeding out and that could all add together for a real estate sale on life support that never makes it to the closing. 

The bank picked if a mortgage lender is needed is nothing to over look either in the real estate details.

The real estate agent, broker knows from the many sales he or she orchestrates and navigates who is hot and who is not. The buyer or seller don't go in and out of deals daily.stained glass maine window photo

The agent or broker does and to not ask for suggestions. In tapping into all the knowledge base from current working the local real estate market from the inside out. 

When we hear an out of town real estate buyer wants to use a bank not in our local service areas, we let them know loud and clear about the service providing lag. A big lull.

(Hear the sucking sound of dead air?)

That happens when a gyspy lender is used that can not get the same turn around time with the real estate appraisal.

Because there is a shortage of bank appraisers in Northern Maine's real estate market and they don't stray from the local lender round robin. So good luck getting an appraiser for double the fee or more to be enticed to travel hours and hours, hundreds of miles out of their primary service area.

It gets down to an atmosphere of bloated rates like ticket scalpers and so little time as the sale bogs done and can eventually die long before stretched out on the conference room closing table.maine rafting photo

Life support and excuses only work so long.

Because wrong pony picked in stable of who to saddle up because no one took the advice of the real estate agent, broker, REALTOR.

Buyers and sellers only have so much patience and their life can only be put on hold for so long. 

So just like give me a few names on the best service providers.

For the lowest cost and top quality for professional working on the real estate. The same applies for behind the scenes on the other layers of real estate players involved in a property listing sale.

Good morning Andy. Your scene on the river will always get my attention, as number of years ago a number of us went white water rafting on the three main rivers for that purpose, a trip I will never forget.
