FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Home Sellers: Our listing commission is very competitive and is graduated to accommodate the price of the home if it is over $100,000. We only get paid if we sell your home and lead the transaction to successful title transfer. The listing commission is due at signing of your closing papers and gets paid out of sale's closing proceeds. In addition to our very competitive listing commission that covers our extensive marketing expenses, our broker, Howard Hanna does charge a flat $265 broker fee that is also due at successful closing of the transaction. Home Buyers: The buyer does not pay a buyers broker commission. As a buyers agent, my services to you are covered under the listing commission and are complimentary to you. The only broker fee Howard Hanna will charge is a flat $265 due at title transfer when you sign closing papers on the home of your dreams.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically the first step in working together is getting on the phone and discussing my clients goals. The first priority is to discuss what is most important to them and how we can make selling or buying a home simple and easy. We'll go over the selling process or the buying process in detail and I will answer any questions that may come up. Once we have determined the goals, we will put together a plan to ensure the goals are achieved in a timely manner!
