Real Estate Finder

While not required by law, a Seller’s Disclosure is a good way for a Seller (and a Seller’s agent) to cover their ass.    Buyer’s agents should always ask for one in any offer they draft on behalf of their Buyers.    Listing agents should ask their Sellers to fill one out after they sign the listing agreement, while they are waiting for photos and preparing the listing for the MLS.    It does not matter if the seller ever lived in the property.    Want to know more?  Send us an email or ask to join us on The Real Estate Finder Podcast! www.RealEstateFinder.com    Check out our other Podcasts: RealEstateFinder.com/podcasts

The biggest complaint that I hear about real estate agents from their customers is that the real estate agent has not been in touch with the customer for an extended period of time.    It is very important to follow up with your sellers, buyers and leads.  Do not let too much time pass without contacting them.     If you show one of your listings, understand that the seller got the house ready, and vacated to accommodate you.  You MUST let the seller know if you are finished and if there is any feedback. You must follow up with the showing agent and see if they want another look.     If you have a buyer, stay in touch. Offer to show houses. Check in.  Because if you don’t, someone else will.    Want to know more?  Send us an email or ask to join us on The Real Estate Finder Podcast! www.RealEstateFinder.com    Check out our other Podcasts: RealEstateFinder.com/podcasts

According to the new rules that went into effect August 17, 2024 you may not display any form of compensation in the Multiple Listing Service. This includes a Bonus.     You may however advertise it ANYWHERE ELSE. Sky writing. A billboard. A tattoo that says Bonus!   It’s an easy rule. Just ask yourself: is this the MLS? If it’s Facebook, or a television ad, the answer is clearly No.    Similarly, according to the new rules a real estate agent may not show a house to a customer without a written agreement that specifies how much the real estate agent will be paid.  Can a listing agent show a potential buyer his or her listing?  Sure.  Because that Buyer is not a customer.  If that Buyer becomes a customer, they need a written agreement.  It’s an easy rule. Just ask yourself: Am I representing this person as their real estate agent?     Join Preston Smith and Matthew Maschler as we explore these new rules on todays episode of the Real Estate Finder Podcast.     Want to know more?  Send us an email or ask to join us on The Real Estate Finder Podcast! www.RealEstateFinder.com    Check out our other Podcasts: RealEstateFinder.com/podcasts

When a Buyer and Seller enter into the Florida As-Is Contract many times they have a different view of that As-Is means.  Buyer’s often believe they can ask for credits and/or repairs during the inspection period.  Seller’s often believe they are selling the house As-Is and they do not have to make any repairs.   Often when a Seller negotiates they will agree to a price but want to let the Buyer know they will not negotiate anything during the inspection period.  Sometimes this is a declaration from the Seller, and it is not an agreed upon term by the Buyer.   The truth is the Buyer’s only remedy is to cancel the contract during the inspection period if they are not satisfied.  Buyer’s will use the threat of cancelling to get a credit or repair or some other term they desire.   The fault in any advance agreement to “Not Negotiate  any repairs, is that often times the inspection reveals something the Buyer did not know when they went to contract.  If the Buyer would never have agreed to the price when they went to contract, it is unreasonable to expect the Buyer to simply ignore this issue.  A reasonable Seller would have to consider this new information.   How an agent handles these situations is what separates a good agent from a bad agent and a great agent.    Hire a great agent at Signature Real Estate Finder

This has been on my mind for a while now. When you are marketing a property there are so many things you want to say, so many features you want to point out. The problem is, How do you start?’ In the initial ads, you are trying to drive traffic to the house, you can’t point out all the individual features when you are baiting the hook and trying to get someone to see the house. Specific amenities do not always have to be pointed out in the first advertisements, to someone who may or not even interested in the house. Once they are at the house, then you can focus on specific features and upgrades. Setting the stage, trying to get people interested enough to see the house AND THEN show off the house and its features AND THEN why the house is better than other competing houses.
