6 Buyer Services You Didn’t Know You Needed
- Early Access
The main benefit a buyers agent provides to buyers is having the first access to a listing as soon as they are available, and many times access to “pocket” listings that they know about before they hit the market. Being the first to see a property is crucial in a competitive market.
- Neighborhood Insights
We as agents have the inside scoop for all neighborhoods. We can advise you on what areas would best benefit your lifestyle and needs, or we can get down to deeper information that the typical buyer wouldn’t think to check-in on, like any upcoming assessments for the area or any other issues that could affect you in the near future with moving in.
- Simple Pre-Qualification
We always recommend the first step to buying a home is to get pre-approved before even stepping foot into a home of your interest. So how do you start this? We as real estate agents have trusted professionals in the mortgage industry to recommend you to and walk you through each step along the way. We can help advise you in the right direction for a quick start to your home buying journey, and it starts with thoroughly understanding what you can afford.
- Pricing Pros
With Jim Slater being both a listing and buyers agent, he knows how to price a home and he especially knows when a home is overpriced or underpriced. This expertise can make a huge difference in your strategy when it comes to writing an offer on your dream home – and you definitely will not overpay with Jim Slater.
- Appealing Offers
With a competitive buyers market like today, it is important to fully understand all the little details of an offer and how they can appeal best to the seller compared to their competition. Many buyers without an agent don’t consider many of the terms and conditions within the sale, like closing costs and contingencies to name a couple, that can allow for the best possible outcome and play a part in negotiation when needed.
- Comprehensive Services
When it comes to home buying, having your offer accepted is only the beginning. Once you find a home, you will face the need of different home service providers like inspectors, insurance agencies, moving companies, contractors, etc.. Owning a home is easiest with connections to these types of companies, and real estate professionals like Jim Slater have those relationships established and are ready to recommend their top providers for you as soon as they are needed.
