Why we are different than your typical Realtor

When Buying or Selling a home it is important that you have the BEST representation possible for one of the biggest sales transactions that you may have in your life. Lots of times Buyers & Sellers can be overwhelmed with all that needs to be done even before the ink is dry on your contracts. Tom & I are dedicated to making your experience as easy as possible.
Sellers: Each and every seller will receive the best possible marketing around. Not only is your home featured on websites like www.youpoconoagent.com , Multiple Listing Services, Trulia, Realtor.com, amongst others but is also featured on Century 21 World Wide Web site. Century 21 is a name that people recognize throughout the world and is known as a leader in the real estate market. This will get your home noticed!
We also offer Mobile advertising, Community Events Exposure (parades & fairs) Mailers, Open houses, & Video Walking Tours! Talk to me to get more information on how your home will be advertised.
Each and every client will also receive a complimentary mini home inspection. What is this you ask? Well with Tom’s experience in the industry of building and remodeling for over 25 years and also the president of Integrity Building & Remodeling, he gives our sellers the edge they need to be prepared with the knowledge of their home by reviewing some of the items that may come up in your buyer’s home inspection. This is an essential part of the negotiation process and could cost you money in the end, so why not be prepared with your knowledge of your house before the buyers even visit your home.
Photography and computer graphics: Pictures speak volumes and without the best possible shots of your house your potential buyers may skip over your home! This is where Ron comes in to play. Ron is an expert in the field of computer graphics and will alter your homes pictures to make your house stand out. Small imperfections will be cleaned up; yards will be greener, and the overall appearance more inviting. Ron credentials include Princeton University, Michael Graves for Target, & Toll Brothers to name a few.
Buyers: Everyone has a dream and that is what we strive to fulfill because each and every buyer is special to us! Our buyers will receive extended business hours (so you never feel alone in your home buying process), complimentary mini home inspection, and the most skilled negotiations available to you. Want to know more about the home you are purchasing, just ask Tom to review some of the items in question! Not from the area and don’t know who to call for home inspections and title insurance? Let us take care of it for you. We try to make this experience the most enjoyable, educational, stress free process available to you!
If you have any questions or would like to set up a meeting please feel free to contact us. Together we are going to make the For Sale house your Sold home!!!
Warmly,
Laiana

Tom & I would like to inform you on the benefits of choosing a REALTOR® like us for your most important purchase of your life.

Laiana Biela — Sat, 30 Jul 2011 22:13:36 +0000

People use the terms REALTOR® and real estate agent interchangeably, but that is incorrect. There are differences between REALTORS® and real estate agents. They are not the same. Although both are licensed to sell real estate, the basic difference between a real estate agent and a REALTOR® is a REALTOR® is a member of the National Association of REALTORS®. As such, the main difference that you hear a lot about — but are likely confused about — is that a REALTOR® must subscribe to the REALTOR® Code of Ethics. But what does this mean to a consumer?
The Code of Ethics is strictly enforced. It contains 17 Articles and various underlying Standards of Practice. It’s not just a bunch of rules that agents swear to uphold and adhere to. The Standards are much more restrictive and confining as to conduct than those governing agents who simply hold a real estate license. While there is no evidence nor guarantee that all REALTORS® are morally and ethically better than unaffiliated real estate agents, it is an attempt by the industry to regulate and, as such, deserves recognition.

Here are 17 things that a REALTOR® promises to do that non-affiliates do not:

#1) Pledge to put the interests of buyers and sellers ahead of their own and to treat all parties honestly.

#2) Shall refrain from exaggerating, misrepresenting or concealing material facts; and is obligated to investigate and disclose when situations reasonably warrant.

#3) Shall cooperate with other brokers / agents when it is in the best interests of the client to do so.

#4) Have a duty to disclose if they represent family members who own or are about to buy real estate, or if they themselves are a principal in a real estate transaction, that they are licensed to sell real estate.

#5) Shall not provide professional services in a transaction where the agent has a present or contemplated interest without disclosing that interest.

#6) Shall not collect any commissions without the seller’s knowledge nor accept fees from a third-party without the seller’s express consent.

#7) Shall refuse fees from more than one party without all parties’ informed consent.

#8) Shall not co-mingle client funds with their own.

#9) Shall attempt to ensure that all written documents are easy to understand and will give everybody a copy of what they sign.

#10) Shall not discriminate in any fashion for any reason on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin.

#11) Expects agents to be competent, to conform to standards of practice and to refuse to provide services for which they are unqualified.

#12) Must engage in truth in advertising.

#13) Shall not practice law unless they are a lawyer.

#14) Shall cooperate if charges are brought against them and present all evidence requested.

#15) Agree not to bad mouth competition and agree not to file unfounded ethics complaints.

#16) Shall not solicit another REALTOR’S client nor interfere in a contractual relationship.

#17) Shall submit to arbitration to settle matters and not seek legal remedies in the judicial system.
