Laconia, Gilmanton, and Pittsfield New Hampshire real estate listings, home buying, selling and relocation information

When you meet Scott and Donna Ward, the advantages of teamwork are immediately evident. Together, with countless individual talents, they share a philosophy: success can only be achieved through complete professionalism, a conscientious and accurate response, and the ability to adapt. Scott and Donna have embraced each innovation in technology and promptly learned to use it to improve their service. However, they have never lost sight of their true objective as real estate professionals - preserving a personal touch, the one-on-one communication that consequently creates a comfortable and positive transaction.

Donna explains it like this, "We tailor our services to our customer's needs. It's all in the preparation, discover your client's expectations and then exceed them. The million-dollar waterfront ranch requires different promotional techniques than an antique Victorian on Main Street. Not additional, just different!"

Scott, too, depends on comprehensive groundwork. "Sometimes a location will sell itself, more often it is character or history that intrigues a buyer. Whether you're working on behalf of the seller of the buyer, you need to be aware of every nuance of a property and its surrounding, in order to do it justice."

This is not simply two people acting as a team, this is a team working as one entity.

Accepting An Offer >Know Your Price Range

As a homebuyer, you may have found the perfect new house for your growing family, but what if it is a little out of your price range? You might list your current home for more than it is worth and be lucky enough to find a qualified buyer who is willing to pay the price, but it is impossible to know in advance what your home will sell for.

If you want to sell your home quickly, have a frank and detailed conversation with your real estate agent to determine the best price for the house. Setting your price within 5% of the fair market value of your home greatly increases your chances of getting solid offers that will result in a relatively quick sale.

Don't buy and sell so close to your target amount that you become anxious when the numbers don't meet your expectations. There may be other approaches, such as adjustable rate mortgages or owner financing, to increase your buying power and get you into that new home. When you are selling one home and buying another, you will need more than good luck. You will need a highly professional and experienced real estate agent who can give you solid advice on how to make the transaction work for your particular requirements.
