I am YOUR REALTOR®: Not a used car sales man!

Being a REALTOR® is the profession that I have chosen to "make my living."  It's a position that I have wanted for a very long time and it's very hard work.  I have been very fortunate with the business that I have gained in the last couple of years, but I am understanding more and more that real estate agents have sort of a "reputation" about them.

Even though I work with a wide range of buyers and sellers, a lot of my success has come from First Time Home Buyers.  I pride myself very much in knowing that they have selected me and I was there for them when they decided to purchase their first home.  In First Time Home Buyer situations, not only am I their REALTOR®, I am their teacher.  I take time to educate my clients on the many steps of becoming a home owner (Pre-qualified, offer negotiations), defining real estate terms (earnest money, disclosures), and making sure we stay on track with our appointments and paperwork (scheduling inspections and turning in paperwork to lender). 

The buying and selling process is STRESSFUL!  No matter how much or little assistance you have, it's stressful.  I always tell my clients that I can't take it all away, but I'm here to remove as much stress as possible.




Are you thinking about buying or selling a home?  I want to talk to you!  Please ask me any questions about how I can assist you!  Remember to visit Catherine Moody with Hammontree Real Estate and check out the reviews from my clients.
