(ok maybe I coached her a little on this) Business Philosophy My approach to Real Estate is simplistic in that it is about knowledge and preparation. It follows these basic principles; 1. Discuss all aspects of the sale/purchase process. This includes the home search, market factors, financing options, costs, negotiations and any other concern that you, the client, may have. Rest assured, if I do not have the information you need, I will get it. 2. Prepare all my clients for the "emotional" side of real estate . This often get's over looked and client's are not ready for the emotion and separation of selling their home or how quickly you can become attached to a home you are attempting to buy. My clients will be ready for this and thus, more prepared for the negotiations and inspections that are coming on their real estate journey. 3. Make sure the client knows that they are "THE CAPTAIN" of the ship . My responsibilities certainly include offering advice and ensuring that clients get professional service and all necessary information. However, I never lose site of who is in charge and that it is YOUR home and YOUR finances. 4. Time with the client upfront. Many clients want to get right into the home buying experience by immediately looking at a home. There is no problem with this approach but you do want to temper the excitement of the search with making sure you are prepared. A little time together in your home or in the office will make the time looking at actual homes much more efficient and ensure proper use of YOUR valuable time.
