Testimonials
"Dear Goad Team, What can I say but WOW!!! After having my home listed with discount agent for 6 months (with very few people even looking at my home) I thought I was going to have look to other options rather than sell it, as I was not ready to let someone "steal" my home. I recieved your mailer that said that you had sold a home just like mine for $5,000.00 more that I was asking for mine. I figured I would give you a shot. Within a week I had more people come to view my home than the entire 6 months I had my home listed with my previous agent, and within 3 weeks you had my home sold for my price. I guess it goes to show that as the old saying says you get what you pay for. Thanks again for all your hard work and all the advertising of my home. John Peterson – Scottsdale Valley Condominiums"

"Dear John, This is now our third real estate transaction with you, and as usual everything was handled with the utmost in professionalism & honesty. We cannot say that about the agent we used to use. You slogan "Your Best Bet in Las Vegas Real Estate" is not very accurate, as it's no bet at all. When we work with you we are guaranteed to win. Sincerly, The Indurantes."

"It may not have seemed like a big deal to you, but it was. Thank you Goad Team your knowledge and experience it was a big help for me. Thank you so much, Mary Myers - Greenbriar Townhome Seller"

"Dear John, My spouse and I are writing to let you know that we couldn't be more pleased with you in every way. From start to finish you did everything right. All of your advise was helpful and your confident prediction of a rapid sale was accurate. Your self-confidence and years of experience made us trust you and helped calm our anxieties. We appreciated all the advertising you did and the beautiful photographs you posted on your website. In fact, we were so impressed, that had we not been the owners of this home, we would have considered buying it ourselves! I am happy that we hired you to be our Real Estate Agent. I doubt there is anyone better. You came highly recommended by a friend of ours and I recommend you, too. Thank you for everything, including being such a gentleman. Sincerely, Kimberly and Norman Rogers"

"We are extremely pleased with the service we received from Sue Goad and the rest of The Goad Team. From our first meeting we found Sue to be professional, hardworking, knowledgeable, and honest. She was attentive and made us feel as if her first priority was to sell our condo. We would not hesitate to work with Sue Goad again or to recommend her with the highest confidence. Thanks to Sue and The Goad Team for a job well done! Kevin & Rita Miner Rancho Lake Condominiums July 2006"

"Dear John, As you know, we've had a lot of experience selling houses. You are the fourth realtor we've worked with. Although the others did their jobs, you went the extra mile.

Bill and Jackie."

"" Working with the Goad team has been an absolute pleasure. They are professional, responsive, patient, and great to work with. I’ve worked with a lot of real estate agents in the past 10 years and none have given me the attention and service that Sue Goad has given me. I highly recommend working with this team…they are the best in the market!” Sol Rashidi 310.754.3113 direct"

"John and the Goad Team, I wanted to thank you all again for your assistance and expertise in selling my home. When I needed to sell I wanted a Realtor that was technically strong and knew the Las Vegas market. What I found with you and the Goad Team went far above and beyond! Not only did you do a fantastic job of showcasing and marketing my home for sale your attention to detail gave me the advantage of how to make my house more appealing to buyers. The fact that the buyer told me my home looked better then any model home he had toured is proof of that. I only wish you, Sue and the Goad Team had an office in Oregon where I live now! Warmest Regards! Bill Spoljaric Dir. of Operations Landmark Onsite 503-956-7204"

"John & Sue Goad and the entire Goad Team, What can we say but "Wow" What a great job you and your team did to help my wife and I not only sell our current home but also to help us find and purchase a resale home here in Las Vegas during a difficult time given the current real-estate market conditions. You and your team went out of your way in every respect to make the process as seamless as possible with great results. Your dedication to detail not only helped us get a very fair price for our home you listed, that same effort and willingness to go the extra mile help us also locate and purchase a resale home in the Las Vegas market as well. Thanks again for all the hard work. Thanks again for the outstanding results of your efforts. Sincerely, Mark & Susanne Scheppmann State Farm Insurance Mark L.

The Goad Team, GRI, e-Pro, ABR answered:
Short sales are not your usual real estate transaction. You need a REALTOR with experience. Our team has a track record of closing over 90% of our short sales. The one thing I would tell you is - no matter who handles your short sale, make sure that get them all the documentation and information requested by the bank. It has been our experience that when a seller does not respond to offers or to requests from the bank, they end up in foreclosure. The bank deals with 100s of files everyday. When they don't have all the information they need, no amount of negotiation will help.

The market is getting better. List your home as soon as you can so there is time to get it sold.

Please let us know if we can help you

The Goad Team, GRI, e-Pro, ABR answered:
I am not sure what you mean but I will try to answer your question. First lets assume that you are looking at a house that up for sale as a “Short Sale.” Until the property has been foreclosed – sold by the bank at a Trustee Sale – you can make an offer. The current owner can accept, reject or counter your offer. The price is always negotiable. Once the offer is accepted, then it goes to the bank to see if they will accept the net. Remember at this point the bank does not own the house. They still hold mortgage and will decided if the current offer gives them enough to settle the deal. So in essence, you can offer the price listed or a lower or higher price. It is not uncommon to see bidding wars at this time.
I hope that this helps. Please let us know if we can explain anything further.

Deed in lieu of foreclosure. Is it better?

The Goad Team, GRI, e-Pro, ABR answered:
Julie,

Many people ask us that question every day. In my opinion, A Deed in Lieu is of no benefit to you. Here is why. 1. The lender can still come after you for the deficiency balance unless the agreement forbids that. 2. Under current guidelines, you have to wait up to four years before you can qualify for another mortgage when you do a Deed in Lieu. That is same as a foreclosure. I recommend that you do a short sale. That way if you reestablish credit you can qualify for a new loan in two years. You also can stay in your home until it is sold or the bank forecloses. A short sale does not do as much damge to your credit.

I know this is very stressful. Have you tried to do a loan modification with the lender? Please let us know how we can help.

The Goad Team, GRI, e-Pro, ABR answered:
B Tan,

I will not attempt to tell you which is the better location, as because I am the listing agent on 601 Ampere, my answer would be somewhat bias. However what I will tell you is this...if you are looking to buy and move in as soon as possible 605 Overview may be the better choice for you as we currently have an accepted offer on 601 Ampere and we are waiting on the bank to give us Short Sale approval on the property. If you decide that you prefer 601 Ampere, then you can always put in a "Back-Up Offer" and if the current offer/buyer fell through for whatever reason. We would then contact you or your agent to let you know. This does happen from time to time, in fact the currently accepted offer was at one time a back up offer. The first offer/buyer later did not qualify for a loan. So if you end up wanting to make an offer on 601 Ampere, we would be happy to hold your offer as a "Back-Up Offer".

Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help, or if you have any other questions regarding 601 Ampere.

Sincerely,

John Goad, Jr.
