    Reef Realty enjoys sharing a wealth of knowledge and decades of experience with YOU, our clients to put you in a position to make the best decisions. The highly customized coaching and guidance you will receive will benefit you throughout your future. Unlike — something you’ll never get with an automated system on the internet or a less experienced agent. You will be armed with the best information and knowledge available to help you make the best decisions possible throughout the process.

    1. Building / Construction Knowledge – Most agents have never even built a sandbox, let alone a house. Reef Realty has built and/or renovated hundreds of homes over the years and we share that invaluable construction experience with our clients. You’ll use the knowledge you gain during this process for the rest of your life.
    2. When the inspector makes mention of an old electrical panel, are you going to know if it needs to be replaced or not?
    3. When a foundation pier is compromised, are you going to have any idea about the repair cost or scope of work needed?
    4. When a roof truss is cracked and sagging, are you going to know which vendor to call to fix it?
    5. When a multitude of physical defects are discovered, are you going to know whether or not to walk away the property?
    6. Valuation / Appraisal Knowledge – Does your agent have an appraisal background? We do! When you ask your agent, “What do you think that property is worth?” or “How much do you think we should offer?”, does your agent say some version of “Let me look at the comps” or “Let me run a CMA to figure it out.”

    Finally, if the discount real estate agent is offering a “limited service” then they will be eliminating some of the services from their offering to the seller in order to justify the reduced rates.

    These services may or may not be important to you, so pay attention.
