Expert Advice

Knowing your needs inside and out helps an Expert Advisor get you the best homes you need.

Very rarely does a home buyer make a purchase put of straight necessity. Yes, you may need a home, but your decision as to which home you buy rests squarely on you emotional hot buttons. As agents, we want you to get excited about your purchase, but we want the results of your purchase to reflect a strategy that puts you in the best position financially overall.


To accomplish this outcome, we employ elements of what we call the Smart Home Buying Strategy. The strategy is a simple one, uncovers every detail of what you want and need in a home, helps you find a home you love, and then engineers a buying strategy that makes the most financial sense noe and well into the future.


The Expert Advisor employs the Smart Home Buying Strategy by doing the following:


· Equity Buyer vs. Emotional Buyer - Teaches you how to have you cake and eat it too. Ensures that you absolutely love the home you buy while getting a home that offers you the best financial profile for your specific situation.


· Buyer Profile - Completes a thorough profiling of your needs, wants, and desires before showing you a single property. For any Expert Advisor, prescription before diagnosis is malpractice.


· Higher Quality of Life Home Profile - Looks for ways to help you find a home that increases the quality of life you have while living there, without increasing the price of the home you buy. It's a win-win scenario, and gets you more house for your money whenever possible.


· Out of Pocket/Down Payment Strategy - Helps you decide if you need to put more money down to help you get a better deal, i.e., buying down points by yourself or with seller assistance. The goal is to help you implement a strategy where you can get the best deal for yourself and keep as much money in your pocket as possible.


You work hard for every penny that you bring in for your family and yourself. The Expert Advisor knows this and helps you maximize the value of your home-buying dollar by helping you make good decisions. All decisions are made with your bottom line kept in mind.


The Smart Home Buying Strategy is formulated to ensure that your needs are the chief concern of your Expert Advisor. There is no room for self-promotion and the opportunity to put his/her needs before yours.
