Testimonials
""Hi Kristen, I am taking this opportunity to thank you for the excellent job you did in helping us to sell our parents' house on Davis Island recently. Your efforts to bring us quality and qualified buyers and negotiate a satisfactory price and terms, especially during these difficult and trying times in this real estate market, were certainly what we had hoped for. Personally, I will have no reservations about turning to you at any future date for help in real estate transactions with which I might become involved, nor recommending you to any of my family, friends, and associates who may have need for your help and expertice. Thank you, Robert Tracey Bodden""

Can you help us find a family friendly area in Tampa?

Kristen Brown answered:
Hi! Love your name by the way! :) I am a south Tampa native, but have live in S Tampa, N Tampa and St.Pete Clearwater. I grew up in Feather Sound in Clearwater/St. Pete, and in South Tampa (just across the Gandy and Howard Franklin bridges from St. Pete.) Both areas offer a very family friendly environment and great schools. Why don't you call or email me? 813.810.7196 cell kristenbrown1@hotmail.com I also have several testimonials from recent buyers I've helped on my profile. I would love to help!

What area will you be moving to? Do you know where you will be working? I was born and raised in south Tampa (near downtown, MacDill Airforce Base, Tampa General Hospital and Tampa Intl. Airport), but have lived in South Tampa, North Tampa, and just across the bridge in St. Pete. I am a full-time Realtor and love working with buyers. I would love to help. You can also see my testimonials on my site. http://www.KristenSellsTampa.com Would love to hear from you and help you narrow down your location.

Kristen Brown answered:
As a listing agent, I ALWAYS want a preapproval. However, if its a Saturday or Sunday, and they'll be getting the preapproval together on Monday, I will not reject the offer being presented. The best way to handle this would be for your listing agent to inquire 1) Why they don't have one yet. 2) Have they sat down with a lender yet to truly know their price range 3) Require a Pre-Approval as a contingency to the counter-offer being valid/fully executed.

With the market being soft, you don't want to disregard any offer, how ever, you should just insist they get you a pre-approval the next business day. Good luck! - Sat Sep 6 2008, 15:15
