Frequently Asked Questions

Question: Is your real estate agent's commission fee flexible?
Answer: Yes. My commission rates can range from 5% to 6% to 6.5%. Some homeowners perceive a low commission as a savings, however, a low rate can deter agents from showing your home, so it may not be the best choice. I would be happy to share with you an anlaysis of the advantages and disadvantages to each of the above choices so that you can make the most informed decision. Call or E-Mail me me to find out more.

Question: Should I buy before selling?
Answer: There are advantages to buying before selling, particularly if you have a specific property in mind, but there are also risks. In my experience approximately 75% of homeowners sell first and then buy. Call or E-Mail me me to find out more about which decision might be right for you.

Question: If another company tells me to list at a price $10,000 higher, shouldn't I list with them?
Answer: It depends. Are you choosing an agent on price rather than a realistic assessment? Too often, here is what can happen:
January - List $10,000 too high
Feburary - Agent phones you for a price reduction and wants to do an open house
March - Agent asks for another price reduction; your house is stale, buyers rarely look
April - You list with someone else
May - Your house sells! You receive less than you would have originally and went through 5 months of aggravation to do so.
