What I Provide
- Top notch advice; Solid, professional real estate advice with zero pressure.
- Seasoned Experience; In real estate, experience really counts. I have the hard won gumption coupled with an indispensable resourcefulness that only comes from having hundreds upon hundreds of transactions under my belt over more than thirty years in the business.
- Personal Attention; Any company, no matter how large, is only as good as the individual you're dealing with. Whether you're buying or selling a one bedroom condo or a million dollar plus property, in working with me you will never be treated like a number and handed off to some "team member." - You will always be working directly with me. (And...by the way, as you're probably wondering, I am careful to never take on more business than I can properly handle.)
- The Straight Scoop; During the course of a real estate transaction, people basically want one thing; to be leveled with. I will always give you my candid, unvarnished opinion, sans any sales tactics. I advise buyers not to purchase a particular property and sellers not to sell every bit as often as I urge them to move forward, as frequently there are better properties out there to buy and more favorable times of the year to sell.
- Knowledge of the Market; A thorough knowledge of the Northern Virginia market in patiently guiding you through the purchase or sales process. If you're looking to buy, I will have MLS print-outs showing everything in your price range, so you won't have a nagging feeling that you're perhaps missing something. And, if you're selling, we will not only take a thorough look at comparable sales but also at what the competition is in your price range.
- A proven network; Having the right people on your side makes all the difference; - Valuable access to some of the very best real estate professionals in Northern Virginia, such as settlement attorneys, loan officers, home inspectors, etc. (Incidentally, I never receive any referral fees whatsoever from anyone I put you in touch with.)
- A reliable partner; Having the peace of mind in knowing that everything in your transaction is being tended to in a professional, efficient manner. From helping things along with the mortgage process to making sure recordations and loan pay-offs have been made, I take care of everything so you don't have to worry. I have many clients, some of whom I worked with as much as thirty years ago, who call me for contractor referrals and refinance information, etc., and I encourage you as a new client to count on me as someone who will always be in your corner.
