FAQ
1. What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?
There are 81 unique variables that affect what you pay for a home. Whether this is your first home or your 5th, it's important to know what the variables and have an agent that actively manages them with a system or process. You don't need someone to just show you homes, anyone can do that.
2. What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?
There are over 120 variables that affect the price and terms you receive when you sell your home. Overlooking or mismanaging those variables can have catastrophic consequences on your financial situation. Our Smart Home Selling System will save you time and net you up to 18% more from the sale of your home.
3. What types of clients have you worked with?
We've worked with people selling the last home they'll ever own, who are moving into assisted living or senior housing...We've helped plenty of first time home buyers...Probably the most enjoyment comes from helping people sell their existing home, in order to help them move up or move down into their next one. Helping people break something complex, like buying and selling at the same time into bite sized pieces. This is where we THRIVE.
4. Describe a recent transaction you are fond of. How did it go?
Recently we helped a couple move from their first home and buy a move up home for their growing family. They got thousands more for the home they sold than they thought they would, we sold in one weekend. When they bought their home, the house appraised for $10,000 more than they paid. It was a HUGE win for them.
5. How did you get started in Real Estate?
I started in the industry back in 2006, working in the mortgage sector. I've always been fond of Real Estate so it was a natural progression for me to start my Real Estate Business.
6. Do you have any special education or training that will benefit your clients?
I have 3 designations that I worked hard to obtain. We've been trained and certified in a Smart Home Selling System and a similar program for helping buyers. The ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative) Designation from NAR, and from NAEA I have the CHBA (Certified Home Buying Adviser) and CHSA (Certified Home Selling Adviser)

TJ and his team were stellar. From the very beginning he asked questions, and personally walked me through the process of selling a home. As a new seller, he answered my questions and understood my concerns. There was always someone available to answer my questions, more often than not, it was TJ himself. From start to finish, the personal level of attention that I got from TJ and his team was second to none. I never thought I would be able to sell so quickly, and for more than I expected in this market.

I was recommended to Ashley Straw by my brother & our three cousins who all previously purchased houses with Ashleys assistance and I'm so glad I followed in their footsteps by using her as my realtor! Ashley ended up selling my property in no time & with a FULL offer! Ashley was always quick to answer no matter the time of day and helped out tremendously on staging the property. Ashley always thoroughly explained every step of the process on selling my home and I'm so very thankful for that as it definitely created an easy, smooth, and fast transaction! Overall, I HIGHLY recommend Ashley as a realtor and I look forward to doing business with her again!

TJ and his team were great to work with. They make sure you are knowledgeable, and understand the home buying/selling process, so that you can make an informed decision. While they are very professional, they are also very personable and easy to work with. I will definitely recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

TJ was very helpful in helping us find the home of our dreams to enjoy our golden years. His real estate experience and smooth negotiation skills worked in our favor in successfully submitting our winning bid for the home in today's competitive real estate market! We put our total faith in him and he over passed our expectations. He comes highly recommended from my husband and myself and we won't hesitate to call him in the future!

Contacted her to sell my condo and buy a house. She was always very quick at responding and recommended several houses that i hadn't seen but liked. Throughout the process she always answered my questions quickly and made me feel comfortable and like i was in good hands.
