Determining What You Need

But YOU Make The Decisions - My Job Is To Guide, Not Decide!

		The very essence of Real Estate Consulting is giving you, the consumer, choices. But in order to make the best choices, it's important that your needs, capabilities, and time that you're able and willing to devote to the task of buying or selling your home are carefully, (and realistically) evaluated. Good news! As an Accredited Consultant in Real Estate®, I employ Seller and Buyer Needs Analyses that do just that. In a few minutes, in the privacy of your home or office, you can review the various tasks involved in buying or selling a home, determine which ones you have the capability, time, and desire to do yourself, which ones you might like a pro to handle, and which ones you're ok with not having done at all. Clients have told me that completing the analysis was the best thing they did in the buying or selling process. Both analyses will help to determine where your needs may lie, confident that tasks or expertise that you might not have thought about won't sneak up and bite you later in the process. And if you find that you need some professional assistance, I'll help you to get the most bang for your buck.

A Promise You Can Take To The Bank

After speaking, if I honestly feel that you can do just fine without some or all of my services, I'm going to tell you so. Many times, I have met with would-be buyers or sellers who I truly felt would be better off not buying or selling at that time or not at all and I have told them just that. One thing I want you to know: I have absolutely no interest in wasting your money or time (there are plenty of outfits that do that). As an ACRE®, I have a reputation for honesty, straight talk, and ethics and that reputation is far more important to us than a few bucks from someone who doesn't need to spend it.

I'm also going to tell you if I can't accommodate what you want. Sadly, many agents will do almost anything, and work with almost anyone. I won't unless I truly feel that my services are a good match with your needs.

In real estate, there's Nordstrom and there's KMart. I only do Nordstrom. I do offer different ways to pay for Nordstrom, but in terms of the quality of services I provide, I will only provide Nordstrom because quality is what will leave the consumer the most money in their pocket when they walk away from the closing table, and Nordstrom is what I, as an ACRE®, will put my name to.

Now, there are some consumers that may want KMart. And you're in luck if you're one of those consumers because there are tons of KMart agents out there. But that’s not what I do.

It's Not What You Save...It's What You Keep! As is true in other fiduciary fields, quality real estate services and counsel will always net you the most when you buy or sell your home, and that's after a commission or fee is paid. Discount services are a waste of your money and time, no matter how cheap they are.

If you would like more information about my real estate consulting services, I'm as close as your phone or computer.
