Did you know?
Almost 80% of buyers are directed to your listing by NWMLS supported Real Estate company Websites?
Not Zillow, not Trulio, nor Realtor.com, but Real Estate company websites like John L Scott, Windermere, Redfin, Doner Group, etc!
Fifteen percent (15%) of Buyers are directed towards your listing by a simple sign in front of your house.
What does this mean?
Looking for a few good men...and women!

Finding that right agent is so important! The good news is with the MLS system encompassing such a borad based geographic region, the neighborhood specialist is no longer the best agent for you! In today’s technological world, a good agent can acclimate themselves to any region within about fifteen minutes with access to MLS data. Don’t fall for that, “I need an agent in my neighborhood line”, when all NWMLS Member Real estate companies are truly global.

As a Buyer of a home, how much will I have to pay my Real Estate Agent?

In most real estate transactions in the US, the Seller pays the Real Estate commissions of both the Buyers agent and the Listing Agent. This commission typically ranges from 5% to 6%. This means the services of the Buyers agent are free to the Buyer. This alone is an excellent reason for Buyers to take advantage of the expertise of a real estate agent.
Yes! Do the yard work before marketing your home!

Often Sellers ask me, should they clean up their yards before marketing their homes? Short answer is yes! Ever hear that saying about first impressions? Well it definitely applies here in the housing market. You do not have to spend thousands with a professional landscaper. But cleaning up garden spaces, trimming back bushes and cuttng the grass can do wonders! Bark is inexpensive. Make the investment. I've seen Buyers turn around and not even go into the house, because the yard is trashed.
