For Home Buyers
As a Realtor/Investor in Central Florida, I specialize in researching, finding and previewing homes that are significantly below market value. I look for motivated sellers which include bank-owned properties, preforeclosures, vacant homes, homes that have been on the market a long time, and sellers who agressively lower their asking price.
Give yourself a raise. Buy a home with built-in equity. Then if you do sell the home after using it as your primary residence for 2 years, you can cash out the equity and usually do it tax free. It's hard to get ahead financially these days. This is one way you can.
The best way to help you get started is to determine the criteria of the home you are looking for. Then I will email you listings that meet your criteria including just-listed, price change, and back-on-the-market homes. You will receive this information immediately so that you are not beat out by the competition.
To get started, please complete the following: Help me find a great deal!
I pride myself on referral business and hope you'll come to understand why. To thank you for using me as your Realtor on your next home purchase, I will provide you with a $500 gift card to Lowes, Home Depot, or a cash equivalent at closing for homes purchased over $100,000.
