Why a Blog?

 


Knowledge has the power to reduce stress and improve the experience of a real estate transaction. A person's home is often the largest asset that most people will ever own. Buying or selling a home can be enormously stressful and an emotional event for a client. While assisting a client, I will explain what is happening and what we can expect. However, pre-transaction work is also essential to achieving the best outcome and all too often, by the time I am brought in, the time frame to do that work needs to be considerably compressed or the opportunity is lost altogether.

So, the purpose of this blog is to help people prepare for the purchase or sale of their home and to understand what is happening before, during and after the transaction. We will cover every aspect of a Real Estate Transaction. The posts will be sufficient to understand the issues but be short enough to read in a few minutes. In addition, I expect to do some on camera interviews with various industry partners to glean their expertise for my readers and to keep it interesting. Here is a short list of topic areas to give you an idea of what I will cover:

  • Why buy your home, rather than rent
  • Preparing to buy a home
  • Qualifying for a loan
  • Do’s and don’ts while buying a home
  • Preparing your home for sale
  • The home sale process
  • Best home improvements i.e., cost vs value
  • Real Estate market reports, nationally, regionally, and especially locally
  • Seasonal maintenance

And of course, I hope it can be enjoyable, be entertaining and prompt questions and discussion.

I hope my readers will participate with helpful comments and feel free to share with family, co-workers, and friends.
