  • Real estate termination fee?

    Should our real estate agent have informed us if we terminated the contract as sellers there was a clause that they would still receive 5% commission ? Our agent never told us if we terminated the contract we would owe him the 5% when we signed the listing agreement. We wanted to switch agents but we didn’t realize this was written in the contract.

  • Should I help my agent sell my home?

    Besides the obvious...keeping the house clean, some basic staging, and making sure that things are working correctly... should I help my agent sell the home? Do I promote it on social media? Or work to try to sell it too?

  • should a renter pay for repairs in commercial space?

    I own a medical practice for which I rent space. The landlord happens to be the Dr. I bought the practice from. It's a basement level space with water damage. Most recently a pipe burst requiring plumbing repairs. Landlord says I bought the practice, so I should repair it despite the purchase agreement not listing plumbing, electrical and flooring specifically. My casualty insurance is only paying for damages, not repairs by the way.

  • How does the election impact the housing market?

    I'm thinking of selling, but I'm wondering if the election will impact my sale. I'm not desperate to sell, so I could wait until after the election and sell next spring if that's a better time. Can you give me your opinion on how the election impacts the housing market?

  • Do low commission realtors do less for you?

    Do low commission realtors do less for you or offer less services? I would understand if something got cut out with a lower commission, I'm just wondering what would get cut. Or if our house would sit on the market longer or we'd get a lower price when selling.

  • Selling my house should I decorate for the holidays??

    Selling my house - should I decorate for the holidays? I don't want it to be cluttered and honestly would like to pack it all away. But I also don't want to miss the holiday feels. And will it help homebuyers to come it and feel at home if it's decorated?
