The Benefits Of Working With Steve To Sell Your Home
Selling a home should be a pretty straightforward process and in the best of all worlds, it is.
In the real world, however, challenges arise during all transactions.
This will not change.
What sets realtors apart are the solutions to the challenges.
Among real estate agents you will find a vast difference in the level of experience, expertise and commitment to quality of service.
Preparation Pays
We’ve been preparing to meet with you for many years.
Our knowledge of our market and our experience through hundreds of transactions enables us to assess both your circumstances and your property expediently and efficiently.
Before our first meeting we will prepare a preliminary market analysis.
That analysis is fine tuned after we view your home and talk with you.
Thereafter, it is our responsibility to prepare you and your home for the marketplace. I will advise you how to present your property to maximize its selling price. Some improvements are worth it, and some are not!
These efforts will have your home up for a shorter period of time on the market and more after sale dollars to you.
An Educated Seller is My Best Client
My goal is to provide you with all the information you need to make informed decisions at each step of the selling process. In addition to review of all documents, we are always available for questions. Each seller receives a detailed marketing and pricing plan.
Continuous Communication
My staff is always here for you...from initial planning for the sale of your home...through marketing , sale and settlement... and there after whenever you need us for advice or counsel.
After each showing of your property we will contact the showing agent for feedback that is then shared with you by phone, e-mail and bi-weekly reports. Marketing reports and progress reports are part of our bi-weekly communication as well.

Zoning Laws >Remodeling and Permits
Obtaining the proper permits when remodeling can be a critical element in the process. Many homeowners are unaware of the local building codes and zoning laws governing renovations. Disregarding these laws may result in fines, and in some cases you may even be asked to demolish the work that has been done.
When remodeling you have to go through the process of obtaining the proper permits. Zoning laws protect homeowners and cover issues such as the size of setbacks (distance between buildings and property lines), the height of buildings and occupancy. State and local building codes deal primarily with life and safety issues (insulation, smoke detectors, plumbing, electrical wiring, etc.) In order to satisfy these regulations you must submit information showing the project complies with the laws.
When plans do not conform they are sent to the Zoning Board of Appeals. There the homeowner, accompanied by an architect or attorney, presents his case at a public hearing. Usually the board tries to work with you in compromising with what you would like to do and what is best for the neighborhood.
