About Me
Conducting real estate transactions is a challenge; mentally, physically, and emotionally. A challenge I love! Attending to every detail is vital. The money issues are important, but you have to really love the part where you help someone. That's what I'm all about.

Mike, Just Looking in Maryland

Is Village Meadows a good school for an autistic child?

Asked earlier today by Mike  -  Sierra Vista  -  Schools  -  1 answer
Maria Morton answered:
Mike, I'm in Kansas City; if you were here, I'd be happy to help you with your questions. Since you're in Maryland, you could find a realtor there to help you find answers to all your questions. Just look online, in the Yellow Pages, or even at the real estate signs in the yards of the neighborhood you are interested in for a contact phone number. - Earlier today
Shana Seth, Home Buyer in Raritan

I , a first-time home buyer, am under contract for a 45 yr old home in Bridgewater, Nj. We had a home

Asked earlier today by Shana Seth  -  All locations  -  Home Buying  -  2 answers
Maria Morton answered:
The home inspector would be a good person to ask about the structural damage by the carpenter ants. He should have noted this on his report. Most of the inspectors I work with are willing to answer any questions regarding a home they have recently inspected.

Your agent can assist you in getting the wording for terms just right. Also, consider paying for a repeat inspection after the sellers have made their repairs. - Earlier today
Amy Jernigan, Real Estate Pro in Surf City

What is the mood of the average buyer? What would it take to put you in the buying mood?

Asked earlier today by Amy Jernigan  -  North Carolina  -  Market Conditions  -  5 answers
Maria Morton answered:
My experience with buyers now is that they are cautious. Those buyers who are truly motivated to move now due to life changes are also tending to view more homes than in years past prior to making a decision. The "buying mood" tends to be stimulated by new jobs, children leaving the family home, divorce, and a desire for condo owners to have a garden or a dog. - Earlier today
Christina, Home Buyer in Wilmington

Making an offer on a bank owned property in Ypsilanti, Michigan

Asked earlier today by Christina  -  Ypsilanti  -  Home Buying  -  4 answers
Maria Morton answered:
Your wisest course of action is to get a buyer's agent to help you determine value, write the contract and negotiate with the bank. The seller (bank) can require you to be pre-approved through them but you are not obligated to use them to secure your mortgage. Your agent can assist with helping you find the best mortgage for you. Not the bank. The bank does not care about you and their addenda will be lengthy and disadvantageous to any buyer. - Earlier today
John Hoersch…, Home Buyer in 531 Northrup Avenue,...

My daughter is interested in this property. She is pre-approved for a loan. My name is John. Give me a call a

Maria Morton answered:
Scott, I disagree. The listing agent is representing the seller. A smart buyer will have their agent do all of the work, including gathering the information. - Earlier today
John,

this is a 4 bedroom/2.5 bath listed for $113,900. It is an REO. Your number does not appear. If your daughter is not already working with an agent, have her get in touch with me. 816.560.3758. MariaMorton@ReeceAndNichols.com - Sun Nov 16 2008, 11:49
