Buying a home? We'll take the time to listen to your needs and desires, and help you find your dream home. Your total satisfaction is our number-one priority.

Here are a few of the steps we'll  follow in assuring that  our clients get the best representation. There may be more methods we follow depending on your unique situation.

A. Exhaustively search the Multiple Listing Service in the desired area and make a list of all the properties that may fit your parameters. Then narrow down the list by reviewing each property. Finally, review the list with you and further shorten the list, leaving a handful of the most desirable properties. These properties will then be further documented and subjected to my Comparative Market Analysis.

B. Compare your criteria with the MLS at least daily to make sure that it is updated. New MLS listings will be compared against the criteria and inactive ones will be dropped.

C. Talk with other agents who are familiar with the area to find out if they are aware of any listings that are either withheld from the MLS or may be coming on the market.

D. Walk or drive the neighborhoods of your interest and look for "For Sale by Owner" or other signs that indicates a homeowner's intent sell. This allows us to add properties that are not in the MLS to the list.

E. Send inquiry letters to the owners of properties that fit your criteria to see if anyone will be interested in selling since they have a willing buyer at hand.

F. Search local newspapers, the Internet and other media to see if there are other properties that are on the market that may fit your criteria.

G. Be in touch with the listing agents of the properties to be updated on any change in status, offers taken etc. on the properties that are of your interest.

H. We may also use other methods of search that fit each unique criterion.
