properties.
You

complex real estate maze, so you may reach your goal in the time
frame you need.

maintenance, and moving out to mention a few. You need to

these decisions.

CAUTION:
If
you are considering selling, get at least 3 opinions of the value of your
property. Many agents provide a free market evaluation and
presentation for you to consider.
You
can also look in the phone book for a licensed appraiser to find out the
current value of your property. They do charge for this so ask them
how much their fee is (typically between $200-500), when payment is due,
and how soon they'll have a written report back to you.
You
don't want to lose any money you're entitled to (as determined by a fair
market analysis or professional appraisal for your property) when selling
your property by accepting an underpriced opinion of value. This is
why you need at least 3 market evaluations.
If
an agent wants to purchase your property for themselves: make sure
you have already pre-determined the value of your property by reviewing
several estimates for market value and/or a professional appraisal by
licensed appraiser (someone other than the agent that wants to buy
it). Hire an attorney you know and trust to legally represent you before
you sign a contract.
You have the right to receive the fair market value for
your property. Don't undersell it.
"I
wanted to take a moment to personally thank you for the
friendly and professional manner in which you serviced the
recent sale of the home in Berwyn. I have
purchased and
sold numerous properties over the years and was particularly
impressed with how you gave attention to EVERY detail of the
process from initial listing to final closing. Since I
live in Denver and the property sold was in Illinois,
coordination and communication could have been a problem.
However, your twice a week fax update with phone calls to
discuss progress kept me well informed. I also
appreciate the way you coordinated and
attended the
inspections and set up the necessary legal support for
closing. Many of your services were "above and
beyond" the traditional support expected from a realtor.
I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly you advertised the
property and began showing it to both potential buyers as well
as other realtors. The result was that we received a
purchase contract agreement in 7 days at a fair price to all
parties when current market conditions show that properties
are contracted in an average of 60-70 days. Please feel
free to have any potential clients contact me as a reference.
Once again, thank you for making this a "hassle
free" process.
Mr. Fred Briggs, President & CEO
of Communications Products and Services (303) 922-4519.
