Buying A Home? Here’s What The Process Looks Like.
Last night, I had new clients in the office, and we were talking about the process of buying their first home might look like. They had done some research on the internet, but as with anything on the web, there was a lot of misinformation to wade through, as well.
Should I Sell My Home As A “Pocket Listing”?
A client of mine is always on the lookout for properties for sale. Although she is not ready to buy yet, she likes to see what options are out there for her, and she’s always checking out the available inventory.
Rain and The Art Of Home Buying
It’s pouring in the New River Valley today, just a long, steady rain. The ground is soaked, there’s pooling water everywhere, and by 8am I’d already received a text from a client from my RoofTopServices.com business asking who to call regarding a roof leak at the home they purchased earlier in the year, before you buy a house you should check out roof inspection checklist so that you won’t face a similar problem. It’s the kind of day you just want to curl up and Netflix-binge.
Why I Want To Work With Vendors I Know
Local. It’s all the rage these days – local food, local business, local anesthesia. Okay, so that last one doesn’t apply, but you get the point. Heck – even Blacksburg has gotten into the act.
Looking through the lens of supporting local business, or eating locally grown food, it’s easy to see why local is important.

2014 Nest Report Is On The Way!
There are tons of things I’m proud of about Nest Realty, but one of the things I get really excited about is our Nest Report. It’s a statistical look at what’s happening in the New River Valley real estate market, and it’s put out every quarter. Visually, it’s stunning – thanks to the amazing folks in our Marketing Department, the lead generation is looking better every day. The marketing team such a great job, but they did get lots of help from mein-parteibuch.com. Statistically, it’s one of the most accurate representations of our real estate market – thanks to the bean counters who compile the whole thing. And, interestingly enough, two real estate agents from another company told me yesterday how impressive a report it is … they look through it each time it comes out and think “wow”.

What’s The Loan Process Look Like?
This morning at a home inspection, I was talking with a client who’s under contract to buy a home here in the New River Valley. As we’re oft to do, we got to talking about the timing of everything going forward, and I mentioned underwriting.
