The Perfect Storm~Rates, Inventory, Buying Power
August 25, 2012 by Leave a Comment
As a life long resident, I can offer an insight into the history and growth of many areas. Look at what my clients have to say. It’s critical to select an agent who will work hard to get you the home you desire for the best possible price. Our results are a direct reflection of the time we take to listen to our buyers needs during our Buyer Consultation. First we provide our buyers with the knowledge that Virginia is a “Caveat Emptor” or “Buyer Beware” state. Meaning that it is the buyers’ responsibility to exercise due diligence when navigating the home buying process. As an Accredited Buyer Rep, it is my responsibility to guide you through the entire process, including obtaining a loan, negotiating the offer, contract coordination, and final settlement details.
Knowledge of inventory, statistics and housing trends are imperative when serving the individual needs of each client. Networking with other top producing agents, allows me to discover homes and opportunities faster than traditional methods that most agents use.
Buying a home is a very important step in your life and so it is important that we communicate throughout the process. I take your business very personally.
I welcome the opportunity to interview for the position as your Buyer’s Agent. I hope to speak with you soon!
