What we’re experiencing around the country and in our area is a strengthening of the real estate market. Prices are rising, and the market is moving quickly—all good news. Yet, navigating a fast-paced market is not as easy as it seems. Competition for houses coming from all-cash buyers, appraisal issues and tighter lending requirements make an agent’s role critical. Every great team needs a great coach. An expert agent is a coach who has the right strategy to lead buyers to the home of their dreams.”

Robbie Briggs, CEO of Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty

Home buying and selling can be emotional. An agent’s role is to keep a close eye on value and lead clients to the best result.

Rising prices can create appraisal issues. Here’s where an experienced real estate professional can advise and advocate for success.

Hot, new neighborhoods abound. A savvy agent can advise on population growth patterns that will generate favorable investments.

THIS MARKET ISN’T AS EASY AS IT LOOKS.

Agents with a broad network bring qualified buyers to the door before a property is listed in MLS.

A strategic marketing plan, with professional photography and exposure to a large pool of targeted buyers, is a proven method for a successful sale.

Well priced properties sell quickly. An agent provides street-by-street market knowledge that is invaluable to getting the maximum dollars in the shortest amount of time.

Expert agents recognize a strong contract and know it’s not all about the dollars. They identify the best contract likely to survive the rigorous underwriting process.

it’s critical to know the buzz on homes before they’re listed. An established network means getting the first word on new listings.

Multiple contracts (often cash offers) create bidding wars. An experienced agent can write an offer that can win the battle for the home.

Contracts are never easy. The process is a minefield, and keeping a contract together from offer to closing requires a high level of expertise and constant attention to detail.
