How I Help Buyers
The Wexford and Cranberry areas are competitive markets for buyers. I make sure I am one of the first to know when knew properties hit the market in these areas so I can relay this information back to my buyers. For any of my own listings, I offer a pre-listing alert to all buyers on my mailing list so they will be the first to know of an upcoming property for sale. I will keep your bargaining and financial ability confidential and will always promote your best interests. Allow me to use my negotiation expertise to help you get the right price and terms for you. I will help you find the best investment and ideal home for your lifestyle, something you can be happy with for many years to come!
Locating the Right Property for You
I provide a much higher level of property search services. I provide help in knowing how to use the search for optimal results, including explaining some of the information fields and real estate terminology. Once I know the characteristics and neighborhoods that you want for your property, I’ll create a custom search for you that will alert you with emails when new listings that meet your criteria hit the market. It will also alert you to price reductions.
Getting the Best Financing
It’s difficult to qualify for the best mortgage financing and jump through lenders’ hoops, so we help you to find the best mortgages for your needs.
Price Negotiations
You’re not left to fend for yourself when you make that first offer to purchase. Before that I’ve given you data and guidance to make sure that you’re on the right track to a good deal.
Inspections and Repairs
More negotiations usually crop up after you’ve agreed on a price, and they’re normally the result of inspections and necessary repairs. I am experienced and ready to help. As a licensed contractor with experience in renovating homes, I know what needs to happen in order to get repairs done and how much they should cost.
Title Insurance
Owning a home is great, but you want to protect that ownership as well. I’ll explain how title insurance works and help you to insure your ownership.
Contract to Closing
There are a number of delivery deadlines, documents and tasks involved in a real estate closing. I utilize a transaction management team which will keep everything on track.
