Q: How do I know if a certain property is a good investment?
A: "Your agent should be able to help. I provide my clients with plenty of education about property in the area, from low end to high end. And I give them historical information on how properties in the area have performed, and where I see them going."
Q: How should I choose a realtor?
A: "Ask about experience. Find out how many clients that agent worked with in the last year or so and ask for permission to contact them."
Q: How can I maximize the value of my home?
A: "There are many things you can do to make the house more desirable for potential buyers, know as "staging." Some of them cost next to nothing and have a real impact. I can help you stage your property effectively."
Q: What about doing more extensive improvements?
A: "It depends. Some improvements—such as adding an extra bathroom—will usually pay for themselves when you sell the property. Usually, but not always. I can help advise you."
