Question 1

How will you market my home?

Accepted Answer

We’ll start by building a solid foundation with professional photography, a 3D video tour and a detailed description of your home. Then we’ll use that information to build traditional items like mailers and flyers. We’ll also do extensive online marketing through MLS and social media. Before we get started, we’ll give you an integrated marketing plan that explains every step in detail.

Question 2

How do I prepare to buy a home?

Accepted Answer

The first thing you should do is get preapproved for a mortgage, if you need one. That requires a good credit score, a down payment and a relationship with a lender. Also, make sure you have all your documents ready so you come into the buying process knowing what you can afford.

Question 3

How will I know which home is right for me?

Accepted Answer

Start by writing down things you’d really like in a home and divide those into ‘wants’ and ‘must-haves.’ Then you can look at homes that are in your price range and see how many ‘must-haves’ they offer.

Question 4

What are real estate contingencies?

Accepted Answer

When someone writes an offer on a home, they’ll ask for certain contingency time periods so they can do their due diligence and make sure they really want to buy that property. There are also loan and appraisal contingencies where they can back out of the purchase if they can’t get their loan or the appraisal comes in really low. It’s also a time for their lender to compile all the documents and full approvals.

Question 5

Can I make an offer on a new home contingent on selling my current home?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can write that contingency into your offer. Some sellers don’t want to deal with contingent offers because they can be risky, but they may be open to it, especially if the home has been on the market for a while.
