Pockets Listings; An Ideal Solution for Buyers Seeking “Untouched” Homes



Watch on your mobile device >>

It takes a lot out of homeowners to sell a home, especially in today’s fast-paced world. That’s why a lot of times people that would otherwise like to sell their home try to get around selling in the traditional way. They want to avoid having to go through multiple showings, the open house routine or keeping the home in tip-top tidy shape around the clock.

How do they do it?  They let their real estate agent know the home is for sale and then sit back and go on about their busy daily lives until the right buyer comes along.

What does this mean to you as a buyer in today’s very competitive market? It means that if you’re looking for something in particular – we may have access to your dream home.

Searching Online For a Real Estate Agent Can Backfire



Watch on your mobile device >>

In today’s technology-centric age, most of the world relies on the Internet as a primary source of information and it is only natural that as one begins a home search, particularly in an area away from their current location, the first place they turn is online. But unless you are careful you could end up with a less-than-perfect match.

Buying a home is the largest financial transaction in a lifetime for most people and you need someone that is reliable, dependable, experienced, and most importantly someone that you connect with. These days, there is a growing trend among real estate agents to pay for online leads that connect them with buyers that are looking for homes. Those agents then market themselves to these buyers and regardless of their skills or specialties unsuspecting buyers often end up with agents that might not be the best pick for them.

We have a wide network of business associates, colleagues and fellow top-producing agents around the country. We’ll introduce you to someone that will work well in your home buying endeavor.
