Hello Realtor Friends!

We are hosting an informative meeting you want to attend on Wed, September 4th, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM. The meeting will outline Crucial Lending Insights (post-NAR Changes) and 5 Key Lending Strategies to Protect Your Compensation.

We will be discussing post-NAR changes relating to lending and the top 4 questions every realtor MUST have a strategy for and be able to answer:

1. What happens if we increase the price to get you paid, but the value doesn't come in?
2. How do you plan to win against multiple offers when you must make your highest and best offer and build your commission into the sales price? What happens if the value doesn't come in?
3. What happens if the property/seller offers a low or zero commission, and your buyer has to build your commission (some/all) and closing cost into the sales price?
4. How do you create affordability for your client without jeopardizing the previous three items and still getting paid?

Join us on Wed, September 4th, to learn how to protect your commission against an array of possibilities that will cost you money if you are unprepared.

Seating is limited. If you want to RSVP, please message me or email me at [email protected], and we'll add you to the list.

If you’ve been looking for a home at the high end of your market, but haven’t found the right one, you may have put your search on hold. But according to recent data, now may be the time to jump back in. Here’s why.

There Are More Luxury Homes To Choose From

What’s considered the top-end of the market, or a luxury home, will always vary by location. But generally speaking, they’re homes that are valued in the top 5% of any given market. According to a recent report from the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing, the selection of luxury homes is increasing.

There are considerably more single-family luxury homes available now than there were a year ago. In fact, there are even more than there were just a month ago. This means you should have a wider variety of top-of-the-line homes to choose from, each with unique features and styles.

Here are some key things to know about VA loans before buying a home.

Top Benefits of VA Home Loans

Buyers face challenges in any market – and today’s is no different. With higher mortgage rates and rising prices, plus the limited supply of homes for sale, there’s a lot to consider.

Putting Off Pre-approval

As part of the homebuying process, a lender will look at your finances to figure out what they’re willing to loan you for your mortgage. This gives you a good idea of what you can borrow so you can really wrap your head around the financial side of things before you start looking at homes. Make sure you get your pre-approval first.

Holding Out for Perfection

While you may have a long list of must-haves and nice-to-haves, you need to be realistic about your home search. Even though your ideal state is you find a home that checks every box, you may need to be willing to compromise – especially since inventory is still low.

You’re ready to sell your house. But what do you need most from your real estate agent? Well, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) asked that very question to recent sellers and found one of the top things they were looking for is help marketing their house to potential buyers. Maybe that’s what you need the most help with too.

You expect your real estate agent to write a great description of your house for the listing and pair it with some high-quality photos. But that’s not all you’re going to get when you partner with a great agent:

• Listing on the MLS – By listing your house on the MLS, it will get more visibility from other real estate agents and buyers.

• Using a Yard Sign – A yard sign catches the eye of people driving or walking by.

• Having an Open House – When your agent advertises and hosts your open house, buyers see others are interested in your house, too.

• Showcasing on Your Agent’s Website...
