Interviewing Agents

So, you are interested in buying a home but just don’t know how to find someone you can trust.  You don’t want to be taken advantage of and you don’t want to work with someone you just can’t get along.  There are so many sites on the internet that tell you:

“This is what you need to ask in an interview to find the right agent.”

Well, here with Team Agnew we decided to take those questions you find everywhere and just do the interview for you, so you don’t have to worry about contacting us to find out what we are about.

It is important to know what your looking  for in finding and using an Agent. The reason why is because the relationship between the buyer and Agent is somewhat like a marriage. You must have trust, mutual goals (to get the house that best suits your needs) and understanding. This requires communication, lots of it.  So we are going to go over 3 topics and try to make it short for your reading span:

1) What to look for in an Agent

2) Questions to ask a prospective Agent

3) Where to find an Agent

Since the commission for the sale of the home is almost always paid by the seller, buyers are able to get assistance and information from a Real Estate Agent, usually at no cost to them.  So, let’s get started with our interview… Read the rest of this entry »

Are You On Target In Our Market?

In my last couple of posts I have mentioned something called, “options”. Buyers and Sellers are looking through the internet because it offers a lot of options.  So my goal is for those who are in Clarksville or relocating to Clarksville, to offer the most options.  In doing so, we are going to talk about your home’s worth in our market.

If you are currently living in Clarksville and are thinking about selling your home, wondering what you could possibly list it for, you have come to the right site to get more information! Read the rest of this entry »

Appraisals In Clarksville, TN

Well, I told you in my previous post that I would let you know what is going on in our market. Here I go….

So you have sold your house, meaning you have a contract on it, and the next step is to get the appraised value.  Your agent did a CMA, Comparative Market Analysis, on your home when it was listed about 5 months ago.  Your agent never recommended that you come down on price or even discuss the issue of why they believe it took 5 months to sell. In our market it is pretty easy to see why homes aren’t selling like they did a year to two years ago.

It finally happens! You are happy and excited you got a full price offer and it is going to close in less than a month!  But is it really going to close?  My intention of this post is not to scare you but to inform you that there seems to be a little bit of a “problem” with appraisals in Clarksville right now.

Best Bet Home Improvements

If you’re looking to improve the appearance of your home for resale, or you just want an updated look for your own enjoyment, there are a few things you must consider before beginning any costly project.

Sure, you can spend a lot on something purely for the personal pleasure of having it – like that outdoor Jacuzzi under the attached gazebo – or you can go the practical route and make an improvement that will increase your home’s market value, such as installing energy efficient air-conditioning or repairing those shabby shingles.

Be forewarned, however, and don’t expect to recoup your costs on both counts.  Many real-estate brokers agree that just because you put $25,000 worth of improvements into your home doesn’t mean that your house is worth $25,000 more!

Exactly how much of your investment you’ll recoup depends on a number of factors, Read the rest of this entry »

My Home Is Worth How Much??

Alright, so first let me say, don’t EAT the messenger. The lion just kind of scares me a bit!

That being said, the most important detail for selling a home is going to be the price.  How do you come to the right price for your home?

There are some important things you need to consider if you are planning on selling your home.  Some things that should be cleared up before it even goes on the market.  Here are some tips that will help you be more prepared, as your Realtor should be. Read the rest of this entry »

Are You Busting The Seams? Homes For Sale!

Are you busting the seams of your home? That is precisely what happened to us.  In 1999 we bought our very first home. This 3 bedroom, 2 baths with about 1400 sq ft was exactly what we wanted, or so we thought. Read the rest of this entry »

10 Things You Should Know About This Train

In the past 4 years, I have seen how the Realtor career has changed.  When I started my career it was about farming areas, spending a lot of money to do mass mail outs, trying to get my name out there. Calling people up and asking for them to give me a try. Drive around and put my business cards everywhere, in magazines, in home decor, etc… Introduce myself to people and hand my card out. These are all great ideas that have proven to work and have made Realtors what they are today, Read the rest of this entry »
