About Me
WELCOME

Voted the "Most Innovative Real Estate Company" by Inman News, Keller Williams® Realty takes a different approach, one that is built on personal touches, a professional approach and positive results.

Erin Phillips utilizes the latest technologies, market research and business strategies to exceed your expectations. However, more importantly, I listen and that means I find solutions that are tailored to you.

Above and Beyond! Erin relies on business savvy, integrity and non-stop energy to walk you through the real estate process. A former small business owner, Erin understands that results come from professional skill plus hard work and persistence. She is differentiated from her peers by an extensive knowledge and experience with contracts, negotiations and real estate investing. On top of that, Erin is steadfast and trustworthy. As she explains in her own words, “It’s about building relationships based on trust, knowledge and expertise. My clients may be assured that I’ll give one-hundred and ten percent to make their experience the best they’ve ever had when buying or selling a home.” Erin is a Keller Williams-certified Contract Consultant. With her vast knowledge base, Erin is a great fit for first-time buyers as well as investors. As a 17-year resident of Citrus Heights, Erin loves the community’s proximity to outdoor sporting opportunities. When she isn’t working hard for her customers, you might find Erin golfing, skiing or surfing. She is also a mother of four successful children and two wonderful grandchildren. Her son is a West Point graduate on Army active duty in Iraq, and her daughter will shortly graduate from USC dental school. Contact Erin today – you will remember it as a great decision.

If you are ready to purchase a new home and want a private consultation, or are interested in selling your existing home, please call Erin today at 916-580-2227 or e-mail at: erinphillips@kw.com.

Whether you are buying or selling a home, hire someone like me, who wants to earn your business. I invite you to contact me as I'd be happy to assist you with this important transaction. I'm a very hard worker and you'll be amazed and what I can do for you!

In addition, if you have any general questions about buying or selling real estate in California (or anywhere else), please contact me as I'm more than willing to help. I have a network of top agents to refer to in other areas.

Erin Phillips answered:
Dear Investor: I'm not sure how rents and prices compare in the Bay Area, but I am sure how they compare in Sacramento and Placer Counties. There have been multiple offers on homes priced at or below median value which is about $225K in Sacramento County and $334K in Placer County. Most of the Sellers are lenders or short sales before they go to foreclosure. Depending upon where you purchase, your investment will cash flow. Make sure your agent knows the rental market as well and has several sources for rental surveys. As a member of the Keller Willams Realty Investors Group, we have all of this information. Let me know if you would like my help. - Thu Jul 24 2008, 07:14

Hi J. Love--I would love to refer you to some good real estate attorneys. Title companies are there only to facilitate the wishes of the parties. You should definitely speak with a qualified real estate attorney to help you with your transfer.

Erin Phillips answered:
Dear Patti: CalVet loans are going to be very common in the very near future, but as of yet, Sellers are not on board with them. So, you are brazing a trail so to speak. There are strategies to get an offer accepted by the Seller with your CalVet financing. You will need an agent who is willing to go the extra mile for you in implementing those strategies and thereby setting you up for success in your transaction. And, yes, it will be a tough road and will require a great deal of patience for you.

Good luck--I hope this helps. - Sat Jul 19 2008, 07:30
Specialties
I specialize in working with investors. I'm a member of Keller Williams Realty Investor Agent group. We are a research and development group and we research, learn and study what is important to investors, not only in real estate, but their complete investment portfolio and how real estate can round out that portfolio as a hedge against inflation, increasing net worth and/or income.

Experience
Latest:
Realtor for Keller Williams Realty
Since I'm a real estate investor, I thought it wise to get my Real Estate License and apply it to help other investors or first time investors with my knowledge and experience in investing (30 years). When you really think about it, your first home is actually your first real estate investment. I really enjoy helping first time home buyers with their first purchase. I compare the rush and excitement of your first real estate purchase to bungee jumping or to your first wedding. It's scary, exciting but well worth it in the end. And when you're done, you say, "that wasn't as bad or as scary as I thought it would be."
