Listening and Communicating
In my 43 years of experience, as an Associate Broker/Manager, I've learned listening and communicating are my most valuable assets. Know one really cares if I have been number one in town, have served on every committee you can on the local Association of Realtors and currently am a mediator for the State Association of Realtors, that I am a wife and mother, etc. What you are interested in is can I accomplish your goals. If the home you are looking for is out there, it isn't hard to find if I have listened to your wants, needs and wishes. Yes, we do things a lot differently than we did even the last five years, but preparation and negotiation hasn't changed all that much. If you are selling a home, the same holds true. If you share with me why you are selling and how soon you would like to move and I listen, we can usually come to a pricing and marketing strategy and get you on your way much faster.
My relationship with other agents, lending, title & escrow, and the vendors all involved with the process are a part of making the move as seamless as possible. Understanding their jobs as well as my own and communicating in this arena is invaluable.
Selling or acquiring a new home is a team effort, it takes all of us today working in concert to achieve your goal. I would be delighted to start working on your goals.
