Optimal Use of Georgia Metro Listing Service:

 With close to 100% of the adult public now accessing the Internet, it is imperative that the accuracy and completeness of MLS information be viewed as critically important and absolutely essential to the effective marketing of your home. Recent data shows close to 90% of today's home buyers now use the Internet to locate homes they could potentially purchase.

The Georgia MLS service now feeds its listings to numerous national and international real estate websites and portals such as those listed above. Thus, the completeness and accuracy of what is in MLS has never before been so very important. I will routinely use the MLS to your maximum advantage:

• Timely submission to MLS

• Timely submission of high quality digital photos

• Insure that remarks, description, and directions are 100% accurate

• Strong nation-wide and international referral network

• Outstanding support from local office and fellow agents

          Here's what distinguishes my performance from that of other agents:

• My 20 years experience and well over 500 Fayette / Coweta sales have taught me how to deal with virtually every situation which could undermine your sale. 

• As my client, I listen carefully to what you have to say and tailor my marketing efforts and advice to your unique situation and needs. 

• I take my clients and my work very seriously. I take no shortcuts. I employ no assistants and do all the work myself, including website design, construction, and promotion. I do everything that I can think of to produce results and I do it at the right time and, always, to the best of my ability. 

• I make maximum use of today's technology. My previous career in Information Technology puts me far ahead of my peers in using today's technology -- the computer and the Internet -- to work to the advantage of my Sellers. Today, with over 90% of home buyers using the Internet as part of the home buying process, the Internet has become of paramount importance in advertising homes for sale, reaching potential home buyers, communicating with them via e-mail, sending digital images of homes, and the like.

• I keep my clients posted of my progress and provide feedback on showings whenever possible. I interpret the reaction of other agents and how their prospects react to my listings, learning from this, and then recommend corrective actions when warranted.

• I stay with you and help you every step of the way, from recommending how to price your home properly, how to prepare it to be put it on the market, explaining to you how to show your home to its maximum advantage, then helping you to evaluate offers and formulate counteroffers. I am especially good at identifying anything about a home to which a buyer is likely to object and offering practical advice on how to address and overcome any such issues.

• Once we have an accepted contract, my work continues through the many steps which follow -- home inspection, repair amendment, termite inspection, appraisal, contract amendments, thus getting you to the closing table and on your way to the next step in your life.
