- The Code establishes time-honored and baseline principles that come from the collective experiences of REALTORS® since the Code of Ethics was first established in 1913. Those principles can be loosely defined as:
- Loyalty to clients; Fiduciary (legal) duty to clients;
- Cooperation with competitors;
- Truthfulness in statements and advertising; and non-interference in exclusive relationships that other REALTORS® have with their clients.
- If you need a list of good high quality lenders, Let me know, I can help you with that.
- Determine Your Price Range and Area(s) in Which You're Interested
- By now you should have a good idea of how much home you can afford. I or a good lender can help with that. This helps you narrow down your home search. You should also begin researching the neighborhoods in which you might want to live.
- THE COMPARISON: Shopping will be simpler if you pick a specific kind of loan and look only for that, say a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage with no points. Because rates (and terms) can change daily, take an entire weekday and make all your calls. This sounds severe, but there’s no other decent way to compare apples to apples.
- Professional but easy going. Can describe my approach. Let me show you how Buying or Selling a home can be less stressful and more rewarding. It starts with explaining the buying and selling process from start to finish. I believe that an educated client can make the process smoother for all involved.
