REAL ESTATE INFORMATION YOU NEED
About Your Rights:
As a buyer or seller in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, it is important that you know your rights about real estate agency relationships and representation. Are you familiar with the new laws passed in July, 2005? What is the definition of Realtor®? What is the role of a Buyer Agent? Find out what Dual Agency means and it could impact your real estate experience as a buyer or seller. Understand how to protect your negotiating position before discussing your purchase or sale with a Realtor.
Qualified Professionals:
Before you begin the purchase and sale process, interview reputable Realtors® to find the most qualified professional to meet your needs. Do you know what key interview questions to ask? In the Cambridge market there are over 300 licensed real estate salespersons; but why should you work with a salesperson who is also a Realtor®? Have you started building your real estate team?
The Current Market:
How well do you understand the current market? Real estate is local, and despite national press we are experiencing a strong market in Cambridge within specific price ranges and for specific property types. Several market analysis reports including average days on market, absorption rates and the area market survey for your desired property type will be invaluable information as a buyer and seller.
Choosing A New Neighborhood:
How well do you know where you want to live and have you interviewed the neighborhood? Many buyers focus on specific property criteria; but spending quality time in an unfamiliar neighborhood can be very helpful.
