Wilmington Real Estate

Reasons why it is important to work with a Realtor, whether you are buying or selling

The Wilmington Real Estate market offers a wide selection of homes for purchase; however, finding that “perfect” place to call home can be an overwhelming task, especially if an individual is trying to navigate this process without assistance from a realtor.  Working with a realtor has many benefits which include:

1.  Understanding the paperwork involved. Whether you are a first time homebuyer or someone who been a homeowner before, I can help you prepare the best deal, avoid delays and costly mistakes.

2.  Provide information and opinions. I reside, raise my family and work in the Wilmington area; therefore, I can provide information on utilities, zoning, schools, and more.  Another one of my services as a realtor is to provide objective information about each property.  I want to be able to help you answer two important questions:  Will the property provide the environment you want for a home?  Will the property have resale value when you are ready to sell?

3.  Help finding the best property out there. Sometimes the property you are seeking is available but not actively advertised in the market.  I can complete a thorough investigation to find all available properties in the Wilmington real estate area that best meet your needs.

4.  Negotiating skills. There are many factors that require negotiation in real estate transactions.  Factors, including but not limited to:  price, financing, terms, date of possession, and inclusion or exclusion of repairs.  I can help you understand these factors and advise you so that you can make informed decisions.

5.  Marketing, Marketing, Marketing. A large share of Wilmington real estate sales come as the result of my contacts through previous clients, referrals, friends, and family.  In addition, because I work closely with individuals who are looking to purchase a home, I am better able to match perspective buyers with homeowners looking to sell.

6.  Someone who speaks the language. Every profession has its own acronyms, including Wilmington real estate.  If you don’t know a CMA from a PUD, don’t worry.  I can translate these acronyms and help you understand what they mean.

7.  Experience. Most people buy and sell only a few homes in a lifetime, usually with quite a few years in between each purchase.  Even if you have bought and sold homes before, laws and regulations change.  As a Wilmington real estate broker, I handle these transactions on a daily basis and can provide you with the necessary information.

8.  Objective voice. A home is more than four walls and a roof.  A home symbolizes family, rest and security.  Homebuying and selling can be an emotional undertaking and for most people, a home is the biggest purchase they will ever make.  I want to help make your home buying experience in the Wilmington real estate area enjoyable.  Having a concerned, but objective, third party helps you stay focused on both the emotional and financial issues most important to you and your family.
