Real Estate Tips
Real Estate Contracts >Taking It With You

Before you list your home for sale, take a careful look around. Are there some items you will want to take with you? There may be a dining room chandelier that has been in your family for three generations, a ceiling fan in the master bedroom, or the bookcases in the den that look built-in but are not.

Normally all fixtures are conveyed to the new owners when a house is sold. This includes anything that is attached to walls or ceilings and, in some areas, all major appliances that are installed in the house. If you have fixtures that you don't want to convey, tell your agent what you want excluded from the agreement at the time you list your property for sale.

If it is convenient, it is best to remove any light fixtures or ceiling fans you plan to take with you and replace them before the property is shown to prospective buyers. List all items that are not being sold with the house on your home fact sheet to ensure that they will not become an issue when a buyer makes an offer.

We will provide the best service possible for every client we represent. We will never tell a client what they want to hear - if it is not reality. We will never enter into a client relationship where we know what is expected of us cannot be done in good faith. We will never enter into an agreement with a seller who is unrealistic with regard to proper pricing. When hired to sell a client's home, we will always make the recommendations that can assist their home's value or help reduce its marketing time even if it means telling them things they do not want to hear. We acknowledge that we may periodically lose business because we are truthful with our clients while a few of our competitors may tell them what they want to hear to temporarily get their business. We will always remember that to have a winning relationship with our clients, we must always have a mutual goal.

We will never lose sight that our honesty, loyalty, understanding, accountability, and creativity are what makes us so very different from the real estate masses. We will always utilize a well trained staff to assist us in the complex home selling process. We will prioritize our time so that we are working only with people who are serious about either buying or selling real estate. We will always treat all parties honestly and fairly and will always offer our properties without regard to race, creed, religion, sex, ancestry, national origin, handicap, or family status. We will always promote the best interests of the owner. We will strive to obtain the best price for our owners, and we will always disclose to our owners all facts that might affect or influence their decisions.

We assure you that during our real estate careers we will always strive for excellence, and we make a commitment to continued education so that we may better serve our clients.

We look forward to Serving You!
