Greensboro, NC Real Estate News

Let me share a little piece of real estate reality with you: Any agent can show any house. That’s right. Any agent can show you (and help sell you!) any property, regardless of which company that agent works for or is affiliated with. I repeat: Any licensed agent can show any broker’s listing. Some buyers don’t understand that, and it’s one of my top five FAQs (Frequently Asked – and Answered! – Questions). So, I figured I’d answer it here, right now. Your agent, the buyer’s agent, works for you and can show you any home you’d like to see, regardless of who is selling it. The buyer’s agent has the interests of the buyer in mind (and at heart!) and will represent only the buyer when it comes to writing an offer. A listing agent has an allegiance to the seller and can’t represent the buy...

Moving Because You Are Tired Of The Cold?     So are you tired of the coldor maybe you are just tired of the heat where you live now.  I have met some clients that move South in order to escape the cold and to stop  shoveling snow.  Some of our clients actually have moved back from Florida saying they could not stand the intense heat of summer and want some seasonal change.  So if that is the case why not come live in a state where you can experience most of the seasons all within a week!      As you can see Monday’s forecast is for Icy winter mix of rain, snow, and ice with a high of 47 degrees and a low Monday night of 14 degrees.  Now of course the next days after this are Sunny and up in the fifties.     Yet the following Monday holds a forecast of 63 degrees and SUNNY!   North Caro...

Levels Of Service What do you have?     As Realtors® many of us talk about service and how we go that extra step or “Above & Beyond” for our clients.  My question to all those buyers and sellers out there is what type of service do you consider going above and beyond?     I have on occasion taken the seller’s dogs for a walk so that the home could be showed without the dogs in the home.     I have gone and mowed the yard for a seller that was on vacation and had not mowed it before he left and we had a showing scheduled for the next day.   I could go on and on about the things we do for our clients but the most important part is the happiness we see in our clients faces at the closing table.       As I am always available and never far from any electronic device whether it is my iPhone,...

Buyers and Sellers Read Your Agency Agreements BEFORE You Sign Them!     In a growing trend we have seen more and more in Greensboro, NC agents are adding in fees to the agency agreements.  On both sides Buyer and Listing agreements we have seen additional fees tacked on for the firms.  Some agents have mistakenly sent us the wrong documents giving us a look.  Sometimes these documents have been their buyer agreements.  I have seen a buyer’s agreement where the buyer has blindly signed the agreement which has obvious typos stating that the firm is to be paid a commission double of what was in the MLS.  In other words the amount put in was the full commission for both the buyer and seller’s side.   Then on top of that though is also an additional fee of $200 to $300 added on.  So do you ...

As The Market Turns     Yet another gripping tale of home buyers and sellers.   The trickle down affect of improving housing markets is as the homes sell in other markets as in this case Virginia, my buyers can now move on and buy a home here in Greensboro, NC.       I have been working with these home buyers for almost a year now.  The husband has already rented an apartment since he has been working at his new position for awhile now.  I have already shown these home buyers homes in different areas of Greensboro, NC as we narrow down where the home buyers want to live in.  When helping a home buyer relocating to the Greensboro area we want to make sure they are very comfortable with their choices.     We continue to see a very active market here in Greensboro and with the continued lo...

Behind the Scenes of MYTHBUSTERS!   Yes of things to do in Greensboro, North Carolina on a Wednesday night instead sitting in front of a television, I decided to take out both my sons actually to see in person Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman of MYTHBUSTERS fame!  The very popular (judging by the packed house) show on A&E Mythbusters has been on for know over 11 seasons.  While we were not treated to the usually explosions and general demolition of urban myths and popular movies. We were treated to a live action show at the Greensboro Coliseum Complex that was excellent.  Some very big fans were there judging by the signs.  It was a great production where they actually explained the process of the shows they put on along with the science behind it and the equipment they use.  Both Jamie an...

As A New Firm Comes Of Age in Greensboro, NC   The up and coming firm of Total Care Realty, LLC has been growing by leaps and bounds.  As the holiday season is upon us I am reflecting back to only a few years ago when I left a national brand firm to start my very own.  After renting a small office space a couple of my former associates (from my former office) requested to join me.  As time progressed we grew and our reputation for excellent service and we were labeled as Concierge Realtors.  We soon outgrew our old space and I found us a building of our own.     We now have ten agents and one of the most updated and modern offices around.   Our plans are aggressive as is our firm.  So as we so often relect back during the holidays I prefer to now look ahead at all the promise and the gr...

Triad of North Carolina Market Update June 2012     This update is to give you insight into what is happening in our immediate market here in the Triad.  While many news organizations report on the “national real estate market” we never hear about any regional news.  This can be very important to our home buyers looking to purchase anytime soon.     To illustrate and give you a snapshot of what our market looks like the following numbers have been pulled from our MLS system (multiple listing service) today.  Now the way we can tell how a market is doing is in the inventory level.  Basic economics teach us that the smaller the supply then the higher the demand.  This drives prices up.   Presently our numbers are:   Single Family Homes        Guilford County     Greensboro     Oak Ridge  ...

What is a lease with option to purchase, and is it right for you? With all the recent foreclosures across the country, many homeowners have taken, and continue to take, financial losses on their homes. These thousands (millions?) of up-until-recently homeowners do not have a tenant mindset. They are not renters. Yet, they no longer have the credit needed to purchase a new home, or possibly even the money saved for a down payment. What option do they have now beyond rental? What do they do to find their next home? Their perfect home solution may be a Lease with Option to Purchase. Lease with Option to Purchase works very much like a rental. The buyer moves into a property owned by someone else and pays them a monthly amount to live there. The difference between a lease with option to pu...
