About Me

Graduate Executive Launch, 9/27/06
Certified Negotiation Expert since 6/5/08

Since receiving my real estate license in 2006 I have helped over 25 amazing individuals purchase a home, sell a home or rent a property for their family. I strongly believe in going above and beyond my clients expectations in each and every situation. Quality of work and care towards each and every client is much more important to me than quantity of clients at any given time.

I excel in assisting first time home buyers by educating my clients every step of the way so they are completely comfortable with the entire process. Call me for a free educational consultation… You’ll appreciate the difference!

Hi Linda,

The information actually states "3 ba", which is indicating 3 bathrooms, not bedrooms. It does not give the number of bedrooms. Hope this clears it up for you!

Is this property still for sale?

A. Grosvenor answered:
Hi Charlotte,

Yes, this property is currently listed for sale as a short sale for $247,000. If you are unfamiliar with the term "short sale" I would be happy to explain what that means to you as a buyer. If you are interested in viewing this property I am available to schedule a showing at your convenience.

Also, if you would like a list of other homes for sale in the area, with your criteria, please just let me know what you're looking for and I can email you some properties right away.

Thanks for your question and have a great evening!

Kathy,

It's great to hear that you have received answers and suggestions that will help you move forward, in one direction or another. That's exactly what Trulia is here for! Stick with it because it's a wonderful time to purchase and down the road you'll be glad you did!

One last thing, not that this will make you feel any better, but so you know you're not alone in this frustration - I have spoken with several agents recently who are going through the same thing with their buyers in regards to being outbid on a property, and are now on offer number 3,4,5, etc. Myself included. Be aggressive with your offer if needed, know your limits so you don't regret something later, and know that the right house will work out for you!

Good luck!!

Hi Kathy,

There have been some VERY good answers to this question and I applaud each agent for showing such good ethics!

A few things to point out that I don't believe have been addressed already - and if they have I apologize for repeating.

First, I agree that your first step should definitely be to discuss your concerns with your current agent. If your agent is a good and hard working person he/she will take your concerns to heart.

Keep in mind that this market is very tough for all involved, be it a buyer, seller or agent. Previewing properties can be almost impossible because the best homes (specifically REO properties) are receiving multiple offers, sometimes in less than 24 hours from being on the market. As a buyer's agent myself, I find that when a great home comes on the market that I even remotely think will fit my clients needs, it is sometimes best to get them to the property right away so they do not lose out on the opportunity. It can be in your best interest as a buyer. I’m sure you would not be happy to find out your agent previewed a property that ended up being perfect for you only to find out 10 offers were submitted before she actually took you to the home.

Second, if you decide in the end that it's best to find a new real estate consultant, make sure you are doing everything possible in the beginning to address your needs – not in a home, but in an agent. When contacting an agent to "interview” let them know your past experience with other agents. Ask if they are willing to meet you at their office, or other place convenient to both of you, and block out 1 hour of their time. Let them know you have a list of questions and concerns and ask if they would be comfortable and willing to allow you to go through your list prior to moving forward with any type of commitment. Then, actually make a list, in writing, so you don’t mistakenly forget something that is important to you. Let them know you are willing to sign an exclusive agreement if you feel you they are a good fit. The agent will most definitely be more committed and wiling to give of their time and effort. As an agent there is nothing worse than spending hours of time researching properties and driving around town to find out my “client” went and purchased a property with another agent because they didn't feel committed on their end.

I hope this helps! Good luck with your situation and with your home search!

Hi Cindy,

This property is a short sale and set to go into foreclosure on 7/21/2009, if it doesn't receive an offer prior to that date. I'm not sure what other information you would like, but please feel free to let me know and I will try to answer any further questions you have.

Thank you and have a wonderful day!
