 "Every day I wake up ready to assist people with their real estate needs. I have been asked, why do I love helping people buy and sell homes? First, I get great satisfaction seeing the smiles on people's faces when I have helped them buy or sell a home. There is nothing like it! I get to meet new people and help them with one of their greatest investments, a home! How cool is that?!! Everyday I work with different people with different needs and this variety keeps me energized. My passion is real estate and so I don't think of it as a job. However, I don't take my responsibilities lightly. I make sure that I stay up on the latest technologies to assist my clients and I continue to search out and attend professional training every year.

Home Inspections >If It Is Broken Fix It
Most houses have a few "little" problems, like leaking faucets, a stove burner that won't light, or electrical outlets with too much "spark". These defects may not seem very important--unless your house is about to go on the market.
We rarely have difficulty getting sellers to agree to paint, replace worn carpets or plant a few flowers in the front yard. These kinds of repairs obviously increase the overall appeal of the property. However, if any of the major systems in your home need maintenance, it is also prudent to have the necessary repairs made. Have your furnace, central air-conditioning system, plumbing and wiring checked as part of your pre-marketing efforts. The best rule is--if it's broken, fix it!
The purchase agreement requires that a house be conveyed with all the systems in working order, and most buyers will bring in a home inspector to identify any potential problems. During the period of time between the "meeting of the minds" and the removal of the inspection contingencies, the buyers are the most vulnerable to an attack of buyer's remorse. This is also the time when anything that hasn't been repaired could become a major issue.
