FAQ
1. What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?
Be ready! We deal with many clients who weren't prepared. That includes making sure you understand the costs involved, get pre-approved (if getting a loan), and ensuring your expectations are realistic. This will get you off to a great start.
2. What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?
Each house being sold is unique and each seller has their own expectations, and we make sure we go over things like; why you are selling, how much time can you allow to sell, and have you reviewed what is owed and factored any costs involved with selling?
3. What types of clients have you worked with?
We have worked with many first-time buyers, those relocating, and those buying/selling, and those buying land, at the same time. Each transaction has had its unique challenges, provided learning opportunities, and provided us with the chance to build lasting relationships.
4. Describe a recent transaction you are fond of. How did it go?
We helped a couple buying their first home AND relocating from Florida. They were a joy to work with BUT just when we thought everything was going smoothly a major road bump came up. We (our buyers too) were able to be creative, tenacious, and patient and get to the finish line and celebrate! It is always nice to have those smooth transactions, but we are always prepared to go the distance, think outside the box, and get our hands dirty to help our clients.
5. How did you get started in Real Estate?
We (my wife and I) have always enjoyed assisting people in our separate professions and saw Real Estate as a way to partner together, utilize our unique experiences and strengths, and apply our unique personalities to bring fulfillment to those needing to buy or sell real estate.
6. Do you have any special education or training that will benefit your clients?
YES! We have several packages to help buyers and sellers, and we have an incredible, online, self-paced Home Buyers Success Academy available, without obligation. https://my4zoudhue023nggab1q.app.clientclub.net/courses/offers/89348bbd-b78c-47cb-bb5a-5d1ea7f50a12
