Questions people ask me
Straight answers to what buyers, sellers and investors ask me most.
Where do you work?
Philadelphia, the Main Line, Bucks, Delaware, Montgomery and Chester counties, and South Jersey. I'm licensed in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
Do you work with first time buyers?
Yes. A lot of the people I work with are buying their first place. We start with what you want to spend each month, then I show you what that actually buys on specific blocks so you know what you're looking at before you fall for a house.
How do I get started if I want to buy?
Call or text me at 267 901 6296. We talk through your budget and timeline, you get preapproved with a lender, and then we go see homes. Before we tour together we sign a written agreement that spells out what I do for you and how I get paid.
How do you get paid?
By commission. It isn't set by law and it's always negotiable. We agree on it in writing before I start working for you, whether you're buying or selling.
How do you price a home?
From recent sales of similar homes on your block and the blocks around it, adjusted for condition and what buyers are paying for right now. I show you the sales I used so you can see how I got to the number.
What do you do to market a listing?
Professional photos, measured floor plans, a short video made for phones, and a social media campaign, on top of the listing going on Bright MLS. You can see what that looked like for 101 Maple Ave in Wyncote on the home page.
Do you work with investors and developers?
Yes. Small multifamily, mixed use and land are a big part of my business, and I run the numbers on a deal before I send it to you. I'm not a tax advisor, so for something like Opportunity Zone benefits you'll want your accountant in the conversation.
I'm an agent in another market. Can I refer a client to you?
Yes. Send me your client and I'll keep you in the loop from the first call through settlement.
