Why do You Need a Realtor?A Realtor brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the business of buying a home. In fact, a licensed real estate professional provides much more than the service of helping you find the home of your dreams. Realtors are not just sales agents. They are expert negotiators, seasoned financial advisors, and superb navigators around the local neighborhood. They are members of the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and must abide by a Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice enforced by the NAR. A professional Realtor is your best resource when approaching to buy a home.
Let The Carrells Be Your Guide — - Working with the Carrell’s can save you endless amounts of time, money and frustration.
- Claudia & Jim know the housing market inside and out and can help you avoid many a "wild goose chase."
- They can help you with any house even if it is listed elsewhere, or is being sold by the owner directly.
- They know the best lenders in the area; they can help you get pre-qualified for a mortgage; and discuss down payments, closing costs, and monthly payment options.
- They are an excellent source for general information about the community, specific information about schools, churches, shopping, transportation, plus tips on house inspections and pricing.
- They are experienced at presenting your offer to the homeowner and can help you through the process of negotiating the best deal. They bring objectivity to the buying transaction, and can point out advantages and disadvantages of a particular property.
And the BEST thing is that all this help normally will not cost you a cent. Generally, the seller pays the commission to Realtors. However, that does not affect the Carrell’s dedication or the spirit of teamwork that they will put into helping you find and buy the home of your dreams. After all, their success depends on your success.
