Matt Dill, Keller Williams BUYERS

“Home interest rates in this market are still low. As they rise, homes you can afford today won’t be what you can afford tomorrow. It’s a great time of year to buy, and sellers are motivated to sell. Home inventory is still low, and buyers risk facing multiple offers during the process of investing in a home. This is why it’s more important than ever to be working with an agent who is knowledgeable in this industry. There are many ways to strengthen your offer than just offering a higher price for the home. Working with an agent who understands the contract and how to do this is key. Always seek and consult with a Realtor—you need representation.”

Sophie Tel Diaz, Sophie Tel Diaz SELLERS

“Selling your house is letting someone else come into your home and tell you what they feel is right or wrong about it and whether they like it or not. Moving is one of the most stressful events in someone’s life. It is important during this time to have a professional agent to help you through the process and create a buffer between buyer and seller. For most people selling their home is the largest economic transaction they do in a lifetime. The No. 1 point to keep in mind is that selling your house is a financial transaction—it is negotiating a business deal—and not to let emotions get in the way of your negotiations.”
