New Listings | 3921 Gaine Drive

Welcome to Oakland Hills just inside Tylertown Subdivision.  This subdivision is approximately 3 to minutes to Interstate 24.  You are pretty much in between exits 1 and 4, so you can take your pick of which way to go and get there the fastest.

Oakland Hills has underground utilities and sidewalks.  It is located right near the border of Kentucky.  This home is located on Gaine Drive, which is off of Fire Break Drive.  It has a level yard and the home owners resently had the yard tilled and reseeded to give it the green, lush yard you see in front of you.

3921 Gaine is being sold by the original home owners.  They have taken very good of their home and now in the process of moving due to their Military career.  There are many upgrades to this home and we know that you will fall in love, as the home owners did so many years ago.

This home comes with 3 bedrooms, 2 bath and a spacious bonus room above the garage. Hardwood flooring is in the foyer and formal dining area.  The appliances in the kitchen stay.  The master bathroom has a separate shower / tub and double vanities with a walk in shower.

If you would like to view more of this home, please visit their website.  If you aren’t currently working with a REALTOR and would like to view 3921 Gaine Drive, please give us a call/text at 931.206.2156 or email.

Thank you for taking the time to view this home!

Ms. Barnett,

Thank you for allowing us to list your home. We hope that you were satisfied with our service. This goes to show that when it comes to selling a home, when we talk about how to make it marketable, it comes down to the timing of the buyer who is meant for your home.  Thank you for allowing us to list it and sell it within 15 days!

Mrs. Nugent,

Thank you for calling on us to help you with the needs of finding a home. When one is in another country it can seem nerve racking and scary at the same time but we hope this experience was a pleasant one and we look forward to meeting you when you come to Ft. Campbell!

Ms. Barnett,

Thank you again for using our services and allowing us to represent you in the purchase of your home. Sometimes in life we find that we need more room in our daily living and we know that your home will be just what you need for your growing family.

Many blessings to our clients with days full of happiness in your new homes!

Buyers:

Are Realtors, Sales People?

This is a question that is interesting to me.  Some Real Estate licensees see themselves as sales people but according to TAR, Tennessee Association of Realtors, the law sees that differently.  To clear up any misconceptions you might have, I am writing information that has been provided by TREEF*, to explain that Realtors are NOT sales people.

What are we?

We are Representatives, according to the law.  The legal and fiduciary nature of Realtor/Client relationship is too often forgotten.

The license permits someone to represent another party in the purchase or sale of real estate, to safeguard their interests, to treat them honestly, to serve them with professionalism.*

I have always felt that I was on the defense for my position to prove I am not a “sales person”.  I take my profession seriously and know that I am bound to the law of Tennessee and the Code of Ethics.  A car salesman/woman is completely different than a Realtor. I give them as the example because we are often compared to them.  Yes, I ”sell” homes but I am representing those owners in the sale of their home. In doing so I am also offering my services, which include marketing.  The houses that I sell to the buyer aren’t always the houses I have listed.  In the event they are, I default to facilitator status.

 Facilitator status may advise either or both parties in a transaction but cannot be considered a representative or advocate to either party.*

 Each home is represented by an Office.  You will know what office by the sign in the yard.  From that office there is usually a designated agent that has listed the home. That agent is representing the owner of the home.  They aren’t representing you.  If you think calling the agent that has it listed will get you a better deal, remember that they aren’t looking out for your best interest but their client, the seller. That is why it is important to have your own agent representing you in the transaction. In Team Agnew’s case, we do not charge our buyers a fee to work with us. In the end we are paid for representing the buyer by our company. 

Here is the break down:

 Our company is paid by the listing agents company, who is paid by the seller for representing them.  In the agreement between the seller and the company, that lists their home, they agree to pay a commission, what is negotiated, and out of that commission the listing company will pay the selling company. The selling company pays the buyers agent the reduced amount, which is their commission split.  The buyers agent can only receive payment through their company, not directly from the seller or listing company.

The first step in purchasing a home isn’t finding the home or being qualified but finding the agent that will represent you. 

For a lot of people, they might be a little skittish with leaving the future of where they will be laying their head at night, in the hands of someone they don’t know.  “Are they providing all the homes or the ones they want me to see?” You might ask yourself.  I now I did when we bought our first house.  A Realtors legal duty is to provide everything you ask for.  If they don’t and they only provide homes they have listed, that is unethical. If you want to know that as of today, July 15, 2009, there are 1909 homes for sale in Montgomery County and out of those homes, the price ranges are from $18,000 to $1,400,000. BUT not ALL 1909 homes will fit your criteria.  Do you want a new home with 1800 square feet or more and under $150,000? Then out of that 1909 there is only 1 listed!  Do you want it to be in a certain school zone? Let’s say Rossview High School? Then there are none.  You would do hours and hours of searching to find that information out, where it only took me less than 1 minute! 

 Once you find the home you want, then the Agent represents you in negotiating your wishes. Once you have a contract, your agent takes care of timelines and makes sure that the contract stays valid and most importantly you close on your home. 

 If you would like to interview Team Agnew to represent you in the purchase of your future home or the selling of your home, please give us a call at 931.206.2156 and mention this article or you can email us. We would be happy to schedule a time to meet with you and discuss how we can make your experience a pleasant one.

Congratulations to Our Newest Buyers!

Mr. McMillan called me about a home he was interested in and asked for more information. I informed him that if he had any other homes that he might be interested in, to please let me know.  It doesn’t matter if my company is the listing agency or not.  I can get all information on any home and I can also get them into any home for sale.  He did just that.

This weekend he traveled from another base to Clarksville with his family, to start his search process and hopefully find what he and his wife would love to call home.  I worked with Mr. McMillan in the week before coming, asking him to pick out his top 10.  He also pick out over 25 homes on my site that he saved and I asked him to pick out his top 10 from that search for the next day, if he didn’t find what he liked from his first top 10 on his first day of searching with me.  It was wonderful working with him and his wife. 

It just so happened that his family picked the house that they wanted to call home!

I am so happy that I was part of this life decision and helping them get a wonderful deal!

Congratulations to:

Looking forward to seeing you and your family in your new home and hearing how much you love it! 

If you are a buyer who is in need of someone to help you with your search and to make things a little easier than it has been, please text or call us at 931-206-2156.  We would love the opportunity to see the smile on your face that is on Mr. & Mrs. McMillan’s right now!
