Pointing out the “not-so-obvious” features regarding the property.
Whether there is a room that was “stated” as a bedroom in the MLS to a spa that was tagged as a swimming pool, Vicki and Alexandra can assess what you are purchasing and create a market analysis based on the truth of what you have seen and are considering to purchase.
“Vicki and Alexandra were able to assess quickly whether the MLS printout is in line with the actual product being presented and point out the not so obvious.”
Negotiated better contract terms.
Whether it’s price or closing date, the contract terms can be tricky. From figuring out repairs, move-in dates, pricing, what stays with the property, what should be removed from the property, Vicki and Alexandra can take care of all these details to make for a smoother move. Providing buyers with “tried and true” service vendors.

Knowledge of home values and how to calculate them.

What happens when the inspection reveals issues that may result in a cancellation of the contract? Can you get your deposit monies back?
