Quote for weel of July 7 - You know you've moved a lot when you save a box just because, "It's a really good box"

At 65yo, my work history is diverse, but a common theme is that I have been self-employed most of my life. This was grounded in discipline with my time spent in the Seabees who are construction battalions for the Navy.

Since then, I have owned and operated several small businesses and gained insight into customer service and professionalism that cannot be taught in any other way.

In addition, I gained advanced degrees in science and became a Chiropractor which I am now retired from after 22 years.

Real estate has always been a passion for me and over the years I gained knowledge in construction, sales and marketing, maintenance, landscaping, mortgage finance, negotiation, trends, best use applications and more.

What is my fee for service?

All agreements are negotiable and can include or exclude services. There may be additional costs if necessary and are decided mutually.

Typically, I ask for 2% of the final sales price. This includes;

1. Pre-listing activities such as county records review with corrections and/or /updates,

as well as in depth customized comparative market analysis to determine strategy.

2. Staging review and action plan

3. Marketing of property thru online portals. MLS and their syndicated partners (ex. Zillow)

4. Open houses, if needed are often recorded and done virtually.

5. Negotiations with buyers' agents on your behalf.

6. Customized strategy from beginning to end.

7. Agreed upon showing instructions.

8. Pulling together a sale. Often extra steps are needed to pull together interested parties.

My professional service fee is contingent on a sale and is split 2 ways between my brokerage and myself. My take home from that total is 60%
