Today's market is extraordinary. Having the right agent on your side to win your dream home has never been more important than it is right now!
The typical real estate transaction involves at least two dozen separate individuals – insurance assessors, mortgage brokers and underwriters, inspectors, appraisers, escrow officers, buyer’s agents, seller’s agents, bankers, title researchers, and a number of other individuals whose actions and decisions have to be orchestrated in order to perform in harmony and get a home sale closed.
To get a winning bid, you need an agent who has the experience and the local knowledge to get your offer seen. Someone who has a good track record and has won many offers by crafting excellent offers that are a win-win for everyone involved.
It is the responsibility of your real estate agent to expertly coordinate all the professionals involved in your home purchase and to act as the advocate for YOU and YOUR INTERESTS throughout.
