How did you get started in this business?
I was a real estate investor and decided that my previous engineering skills provided me the ability to provide expert advice and insight to home ownership. I also have strong negotiating skills with my clients best interest in mind.
What types of customers have you worked with?
From individuals to large institutional investors. I have expertise in commercial, residential, land and multi-family. My clients find my skills and knowledge is key to their successful closing.
Describe a recent project you are fond of.
A client once told me that if there was a way to close a contract, they would reach out to me for advice even if I was not the one representing them. I take pride in every sale. A recent client hired me for her first home. She wanted a home that was remodeled. We looked at nearly 20 flips in the area and went under contract three times. The first home inspection missed an incorrectly manufactured overhead beam that I pointed out, the sencond home had an undersized AC unit not mentioned on the inspection and also a pool liner that would have cost the buyer dearly in a few years. The last home we found she loved and purchased as her first home with everything she wanted and no hidden problems.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Out of all of the things that could be recommended, the inspection is one of the most important. If you are a seller, make full disclosure and don't hold back. A buyer will usually find any issue with a home during inspection.
As a buyer it is not always best to rely on the inspection. An experienced agent with the right background can catch issues and help advise on other types of inspections such as drain pipe scoping, structural inspections, mold, water easements, roof inspectors, AC inspectors etc.
In this period of flippers trying to make a dollar there are a lot of corners cut to make more money.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
Buyer:
How much can I afford?
Is the inspection necessary?
Do I want to do any remodeling?
Do I want the responsibility of a pool?
How is my credit?
Seller:
What affects my home price the most?
Should I stage the home?
Will better photos help the sales price?
Where will my listing be shown on the web?
Does clutter affect the showings and price?
Do I have an inspection done before an offer?
Where can I get a Seller Property Disclosure Statement?
