Real estate licensees who are member of the National Association of REALTORS® are called REALTORS®. A REALTOR® will provide you with the following services:
• Offer industry expertise specific to your local market
• Analyze potential homes that match your wants and needs
• Keep you informed during the process
• Negotiate on your behalf
• Answer questions with competence and speed 


Get Pre-Approved
Pre-approval gives you the opportunity to increase bargaining and negotiating power by:
• Estimating your mortgage payment
• Setting a realistic price range you can afford
• Addressing possible qualification issues ahead of time
• Facilitate a faster transaction closing 


Buying Your Home
Your decision to buy a home should be based on answers to the following questions:
• What kind of home do I want?
• What are the comparable homes selling for?
• What about the neighborhoods, schools, crime rates, traffic, zoning, and work commutes?
• Does the home meet my price, location and amenity needs? 


Negotiate
Buyers have their share of homes from which to choose in today’s market. Negotiations among sellers and buyers (and their respective REALTORS®) have reached a new level of importance. Negotiation in a buyer’s market is not limited to price reductions. Incentives can include:
• Upgrades in the purchase of a new construction home
• Financing packages such as seller-paid closing costs
• Higher levels of service

Despite the negative press in recent months, realize that all real estate is local and what is happening in other areas in the United States does not necessarily reflect your local housing market. As a matter of fact, prices can vary from neighborhood to neighborhood. This buyer’s market will not last forever. If you’d like for information as to Why Buy Now… Ask a REALTOR®!
