When we identify a property that aligns with your requirements, we will conduct a comprehensive market analysis and devise a strategic plan to help you determine an offer price and terms. We will then leverage our negotiation skills and market knowledge to advocate on your behalf.

  • Agent to Agent We communicate with the listing agent to obtain the best information possible about competing offers, sellers’ preferences regarding terms, and the timeline for offer submission.
  • Price & Terms We review comparable sales and discuss the price and terms that can best position your offer.
  • Watching Details We ensure that all offer documents are meticulously prepared and signed, leaving no room for ambiguity.
  • Present Offer Promptly Representing you in the best light can help you secure the home you desire.
  • Maintain Communication We forward any counter-offers for review and negotiate on your behalf and write any addenda or subsequent counter-offers.
