Buying

Once you have narrowed down areas where you'd like to live, your agent will help refine your search and assist you in making an informed decision in identifying the home that best fits your needs with market experience and access to search functions which feature neighborhood and school statistics, market data and walk scores.
3. How Will You Make A Winning Offer?
Your agent, a local market expert, will guide you in offering the most competitive price and terms using extensive market knowledge and various tools like sales trends, absorption rates, and escalation clauses. In today’s market, bidding wars are common. Your agent knows all the right moves in this stressful, fast-moving game.
4. Conduct Home Inspection & Obtain Mortgage Approval & Insurance
Once your offer has been accepted, your agent can connect you with skilled home inspectors, real estate attorneys, mortgage lenders, insurance agents and any other home-related vendors that might be needed. Your agent will manage every aspect of the transaction and will help you find resolutions to inevitable challenges.

Selling
1. Determine The Market Value Of Your Home
This first step is critical to the process.  You can see what similar homes sell for in your market.  Many factors determine a home’s value including its location, condition, age, recent updates, features and comparable sales in the neighborhood. Our Team are experts in finding the true value of your property.
2. Prepare Your Home For The Market
We are connoisseurs of the art of maximizing the equity of your home. We’ll advise you on any improvements, home repairs or even professional staging that best prepare your home to return its maximum value. Our Team knows how to present your home so it will sell quickly and at the right price.
3. Attract Appropriate Buyers
Once your home is ready, we’ll provide the highest level of local, regional and global marketing. Your personal marketing plan may include video, print, open houses, private showings and anything else we believe will benefit your sale. Each plan is custom designed to attract the right buyers whenever and wherever they are.
4. Negotiate The Winning Offer
Once you receive an offer or multiple offers, your agent employs smart strategies based on real experience. Our team is skilled at negotiating the strongest offer so that you not only score the best price but also the best terms and conditions on your sale.
5. Closing
Our brokerage utilizes the latest technology to help make your selling experience seamless and convenient. Once your home goes under contract, your agent will manage every aspect of the transaction and will keep you updated on each step of the transaction from home inspection to purchase and sale, mortgage approval (if applicable) and everything else in between. You’ll stay well informed all the way to closing day.
