Having a Realtor who is working “for you” & is familiar with and has access to the current inventory that’s on the market, mortgage lender requirements, contract knowledge and inspections is key! The internet is a good tool & starting point for consumers to explore the market. Yet we all know that not all of the information online is accurate or up-to-date.

In that difficult housing environment, she sold her first home using creativity to make the deal work for both parties. Since her first sale, Nancy has been unstoppable. Today, 85 to 90 percent of her loyal clients are either repeat or referral business.
