Interested in Buying?
How do you find deals in any market?
-
Listed Properties
There are clues to value even with listed properties.
-
Off-Market Properties
The most potential properties for sale are found in off-market properties.
-
Direct from Sellers
For sale by owner is a great option as well.
Experience teaches us that:
-
The buying decision is the most important decision.
Picking the right location.
Having the right design and features you need will also help you when you sell.
Paying the right price.
Hard to fix the purchase when you go to sell or refinance when one of the buying criteria has not been met.
-
Paying too much, which is easy to do, leads to less money to invest or enjoy in other areas of your life.
If it is an investment property, it could be the difference in making passive income or you feeding the alligator as they say to cover all the expenses.
Buying well should allow you to enjoy your lifestyle without having to actively work more than you should to pay the mortgage or feed a bad investment that does not cash flow.
-
When buying, due diligence is making sure you understand all the variables and conditions that will affect the property’s value and future value before you buy. Now is the time to walk away if the deal is not right. Having the right team of professionals at this stage is crucial to your real estate success.
There are so many ways to structure a deal so that the seller gets what they want and need and you get a good value in your purchase. Listening to the sellers’ wants and needs helps.
In real estate, relationships matter. The relationship you have with your advisors. The relationship they have with the parties representing the sellers. The relationships your advisors have with the team of professionals that will represent your interests.
-
Make sure the team you have representing you in your purchase has the right knowledge, experience, and relationships to represent your goals and interests well.
We have a team of professionals that can assist you with making a fully informed decision with your next purchase.
We look forward to the opportunity to serve you.
Testimonials from Home Buyers:
“Jeff's negotiating skills helped us to close a deal on our home while ensuring all parties, us as buyers and the sellers, were satisfied with the final transaction. Throughout the process, Jeff's knowledge, experience, and high ethical standards were always present. I have and will continue to recommend Jeff.”
— Andrew
Working with Jeff to purchase our property was the best decision we made. He was responsive and attentive, incredibly knowledgeable about market trends and local communities, and endlessly patient showing properties and answering questions. It was evident he genuinely cared about finding the right home for each family, and knew how to make that happen. The transaction was efficient, but not rushed. He also had a great network of people who were able to handle the details smoothly for us, including a few curveballs we did not expect.
— Christine
“From the very beginning, Jeff was professional, up-front, and very detailed in helping us through the process and telling us exactly what we needed to do. He was extremely helpful during the negotiation process with the banks. Even after we moved out of the country, he was able to keep us posted on the process, and advising us on what needed to do be done to get the deal to close while we were out of the country. We were really blessed to have him as our agent during the process and would highly recommend him to anyone for their real estate needs
