Why it helps to have an experienced Realtor

Posted by Jordan Smith on July 12, 2022

I originally connected with this client to help them find an affordable home in Lehigh Acres. Additionally, after providing a detailed analysis on the SWFL market, they felt comfortable to have me sell their decades-held property. More than that, they put trust in my experience, bolstered by years of continued work in the investment sphere of real estate. I reviewed the comps before the listing went active, as any professional agent should do, and perceived the price as fair, yet worthy of a handsome payout for the homeowners.

Interest in the house was fierce, and after five days the property was under contract; the buyer reached out to me via the For Sale sign. Representing both sides of the transaction allowed me to gift the best terms for both clients: saving cost to sellers and negotiating seller concessions. The all-cash offer made it easy for the sellers to quickly purchase their next property. Unlike mortgage loans, cash offers are practically a “sure thing.” Unless a party back out, offers on the next home can be written up with the proof of funds being the sale of the previous.

In the end, the homeowners were happy and used 100% of the proceeds to downsize into another Lehigh Acres property and will stave away from a mortgage payment. The buyer is pleased and gifted the property to their daughter.
