Be pre-qualified by a bank before looking at homes. That way you can know that you are looking in the right price range. If you do make an offer, it will be taken much more seriously if this step is taken care of.

Clean out and clean up. Make sure that your curb appeal is at it's best, it sets the tone for any showing. Buyers want good condition and cleanliness to consider buying a property.

I have worked with CEO's of large companies and folks who are just starting to look at buying a second home. I work in all price ranges, it is the people that make the transaction worthwhile.

I recently sold a very expensive property to a buyer who could afford to purchase anything. It was particularly gratifying because he was buying in an area in which he had grown up. It was a nostalgic return back to what he had know as a kid.

I was originally a business broker in the Philadelphia area when I got my first real estate license. When I moved to the Adirondacks, I decided that listing and selling vacation homes and businesses was a natural progression.

My training includes being able to show property by boat, X country skiis, snowmobile or snowshoe if necessary. I have knowledge of so much of the area that I am comfortable in most situations. There are so many adventures when working in this area.
