About Ben Nelson
Everything in real estate is unique. The property you're buying or selling, your situation and your personal needs are just some of the things that make real estate anything but ordinary. Yet too often professionals approach every transaction as one-size-fits-all, or at the very least a limited set of solutions. You and your circumstances should be treated with the care and respect of learning your true needs and goals, and doing everything that can be done to present options that meet those needs. That's what I aim to do with all my clients. Through education, understanding and problem solving we can work together to make that happen. As someone who's been involved in real estate in multiple facets - as a Realtor, investor, remodeled and more - I have a unique perspective that I can bring to help you achieve your goals in buying or selling. I love working with all types of clients, from first time home buyers to high-end listings. I really enjoy working with other investors, especially those that are just getting into the world of real estate investment where I can share from my own experiences to help them with their investment goals and avoid common missteps along the way. Whatever your situation, whatever your goals, wherever you're trying to transition to, I promise to spend the time with you to know those things well so we can walk that journey together to your desired outcome. Real estate is complex, and there's a lot to know to get through the process smoothly. With experience and knowledge to draw from, and a passion for real estate and helping other achieve their dreams, I would love the opportunity to walk that path with you. If I can help you get from where you are, to where you want to be, reach out to me and I'm ready to help.

FAQ
If you're a buyer looking to purchase a home, there are several things you can do to make the process smoother. First and foremost, it's important to determine your budget and get pre-approved for a mortgage. This will help you narrow down your search and ensure you're not wasting time on homes that are out of your price range. Additionally, researching the neighborhood and hiring a reputable real estate agent can help you make an informed decision and find a home that fits your lifestyle.
There are also programs available for home buyers, such as Homes for Heroes, which provides savings on real estate fees and other services for military members, healthcare professionals, first responders, and teachers. If you're eligible for one of these programs, it can be a great way to save money on your home purchase.
Attending open houses can also be helpful in your search for the perfect home. Take the time to make notes and ask questions, and consider getting a home inspection before finalizing your purchase to identify any potential issues or repairs that need to be made.
Overall, buying a home can be a complex process, but with careful planning, research, and the right support from professionals and programs like Homes for Heroes, you can make a confident and informed decision.
Hire a reputable real estate agent: A good real estate agent can help guide you through the home selling process and provide you with valuable information about pricing, marketing, and negotiating. Choose a reputable agent who has experience in your local area.
Price your home correctly: Setting the right price for your home is crucial for attracting buyers and getting a good sale price. Your real estate agent can help you determine the right price based on market trends, comparable sales, and the condition of your home.
Make your home look its best: First impressions matter, so make sure your home looks its best for potential buyers. This might include decluttering, cleaning, and staging your home to showcase its best features.
Be flexible with showings: Make your home as accessible as possible for potential buyers. This might mean being flexible with showings and accommodating different schedules.
Be prepared for negotiations: Negotiations are a normal part of the home selling process, so be prepared to negotiate with buyers. Your real estate agent can help you navigate this process and come up with a strategy that works for you.
Consider using professional photography and virtual tours: With more buyers shopping for homes online, professional photography and virtual tours can help showcase your home and attract more buyers.
Be patient: Selling a home can take time, so be patient and don't get discouraged if your home doesn't sell right away. With the right strategy and a little patience, you'll find the right buyer for your home.
Overall, selling a home can be a complex process, but with the right support from a reputable real estate agent and a little effort to make your home look its best, you can increase your chances of a successful sale.
