  How I Will Save You Money Buying Real Estate!

I GUARANTEE you that I can help you save money buying real estate! Did you know that most real estate agents are not college educated therefore do not have business degrees? If you are going to trust your money and your most important purchase in your lifetime to a non-professional then there is an old adage in life "you get what you pay for", or in this case what you don't pay for, buyer's agents in Florida work for FREE. Check the items in green below, I can save you lots of money, as hundreds of people have already found out!

Here's an example list of what I do for you:

  • Refer you to a good mortgage banker and get you pre-qualified for a mortgage ($,$$$)
  • Consultation on your home needs
  • What cities and neighborhoods are best, schools, traffic, etc.($$,$$$)
  • Consultation on your finances and what type of real estate meets your needs
  • Lots of hours of research on the MLS (Multiple Listing Service)
    • A good buyer's agent watches for your dream home everyday, your exact house can sell in one day!
    • The MLS has over 300 fields that can be screened, most Internet sites do not
    • This minimizes wasting your valuable time off from work

  • FREE gas and taxi cab service to see prospective homes
  • Write the offer on a contract
  • Professional negotiation of the offer ($,$$$)
  • The seller's agent represents the seller and doesn't represent your interests
  • Hold your escrow deposit with a licensed broker or attorney
  • Refer a real estate attorney or closing agent to complete the sale with the seller
  • Refer a home inspector and be present at your home inspection
  • Professional negotiation of the home inspection per the contract ($,$$$)
  • Refer a home insurance company
  • Refer a handyman for any home fixes
  • Make sure you get the utilities turned on prior to closing
  • Be present at the closing to make sure everything goes smooth

    Buying a home is the most expensive purchase in your lifetime! The items above marked ($,$$$) means we GUARANTEE that we will save you money with our 10 years of experience and over $50,000,000 sold! Basically a buyer's agent will hold your hand from start to finish. A buyer's agent is an absolute must for a first time home buyer and for 99 percent of all other cases.
