Can I buy a home without a Realtor? In this video, Amy addresses this great question from a buyer.

Her major points: You can buy a home without a Realtor, but it’s not a good idea!

Finding the perfect home for you is not the hardest part. The harder part is getting you to the closing table and into your new home. Who is getting your offers noticed? What happens when an issue comes up in inspection? What happens when there’s a problem with the appraisal? Who is negotiating all this? Who is reviewing title? Who is making sure your cash to close is ready to go and liquid? Our job is to foresee the items that come up and help you before it becomes an issue.

 

VIDEO: HOW DO YOU SELECT A REALTOR TO SELL YOUR HOME?

A client asked Noreen and Amy, “How do I choose a Realtor to sell my home?” In this short video, Amy provides some guidance on what to look for and what the dynamic should be like between you and a seller’s agent.

A few highlights:

  • Meet with a potential agent face-to-face so you can get an idea of the chemistry. It’s important. You’ll be spending a lot of time together and there needs to be trust.
  • Choose someone with expertise selling homes in your community, your city, and your neighborhood.
  • Choose someone who clearly will work hard for you and has a plan to market your home… Open houses, follow up calls, relationships with other agents… all of these are good signs.
