About Me
As a top producing agent, real estate trainer, relocation award winner, military spouse, and mother, Theresa understands that buying or selling a home is more than “just” moving. It involves complicated coordination of the transaction including paperwork, moving, closing, showings, and more. It involves sound real estate marketing advice, complete and solid contract writing, excellent negotiation and communication skills, and most importantly…the ability to listen!

Theresa is a member of the Core Values Club and believes deeply in the following:

· Live by the “get by giving” philosophy

· Make my clients #1 goal, my #1 goal

· Live up to my standards, despite temptations to lower them

· Be willing to work towards a common good

· Do what I say I will do, sometimes more, just NEVER less!

If you are ready for an agent who follows the “golden rule” of real estate, and treats all her clients like she would want to be treated, than call Theresa. There is no obligation! Call for an interview today at (703) 586-3505.

Question removed

Theresa Boyles answered:
Lashae,
"clear title" would mean that the bank has released their lien against the property. This happens when the mortgage is paid off. In this case, the seller wouldn't be paying off the mortgage and the bank still has rights to the property. Think of the title just like you would a "pink slip" on a car. If the bank is still owed money, they still hold the "pink slip" and the seller can't give it to you without paying off the loan. - Tue Apr 22 2008, 20:26
Lashae, just remember that you want "clear title" and that means "ALL LIENS" must be removed. If the 100K isn't enough to cover what the seller owes he cannot clear the debt against the property and will either need to ask forgiveness for the debt (short sale) or foreclose. I would suggest you speak with a good real estate attorney/agent or both! - Tue Apr 22 2008, 19:58

Maryann, as you see, it's the same everywhere. I email, fax, call and if I don't get a respone within 48 hours, our broker calls the other broker. It has gotten our office to get more responses. Just a thought!
PS - are you in CA? or FL? - Tue Apr 22 2008, 20:10

Potential offer for bank owned property...

Theresa Boyles answered:
Natalia, all banks are different but in our area in Northern Virginia banks are paying closing costs and taking contingencies for inspections. They are still selling the property "AS IS", but the buyer can have the inspection done and then cancel if the repairs are too costly. It's especially important if there is a potential for mold. The banks cannot keep a buyer from doing an inspection and most of their addendum advise the buyer to do so, they just say they won't pay for anything. Of course, if there are multiple bids, your buyer will lose out if someone else waives the right to a home inspection. It's a good idea to at least counsel the buyer to have the inspections, let them know what can happen, and if they decide to waive the inspections - make sure the sign some type of disclosure that says you offered them inspections! Foreclosures are alot more willing than short sales! Good Luck! - Tue Apr 22 2008, 20:05

Does anyone know where I can find employment as an unlicensed assistant??

Theresa Boyles answered:
I started this way many years ago. I contacted local offices in person and dropped off a resume and asked if there were any top producing agents looking for a licensed assistant. Don't forget to do homework on the agent you are thinking of working with either! You want to make sure you will have a good mentor and not just be a "file clerk!" Good Luck! - Tue Apr 22 2008, 19:52
