“We’ll buy your house – no questions asked!”
“Get an offer on your house TODAY!”
“Sell your home without a single showing!!”
You’ve seen the ads, and they almost seem too good to be true, but are they?
Sellers are being wooed by ads that promise instant sales, no showings, and a great price, but what REALLY happens when you fill out one of those online forms to assess the value of your home??
Your information is immediately sold to HUNDREDS of real estate agents – which means you’ll get inundated with countless phone calls from eager realtors anxious to snatch your listing….
You can’t really blame the agents. Nobody would choose a cold call as their preferred way of doing business, but inventory is at an all-time low and agents have to get creative. If the market gets tight enough, realtors are often forced to step outside their comfort zone and look for non-traditional ways to get business.
I have to admit, even though I don’t love it, I’ve had to make a few cold calls in my day. It’s not my favorite method, but it’s still a solid way to connect with customers and truly help people. I might cold call you to gauge your interest in selling, but I would NEVER take advantage of you or your trust.
Whether I go to my clients, or they come to me, I always pride myself on:
- Educating you on current home values and providing comparables whenever possible.
- Encouraging you to have a potential property inspected by a highly qualified home inspector.
- Making sure you don’t waive important contingencies (like mortgage or appraisal contingencies) in the hopes of sweetening your offer.
- Ensuring that you find the right house within your budget.
Buying a new home is one of the biggest purchases you’ll make- and I want to help you get the best deal you possibly can.
If you’re interested in selling your home, or if you’re thinking about buying a new one, I’d love to sit down and chat. No pressure, no obligation, no questionable sales tactics, just an opportunity to help you navigate the real estate market and find your perfect new place!
