Outstanding Business Relationship
"It is not often I have the pleasurable opportunity of communicating with a business owner about an outstanding business relationship. I am writing about your outstanding and capable RealtorŪ Associate, Susan Gunnin. I am compelled to share with you about a very positive relationship that began nine months ago, when I first contacted your office. From that time to the present, recently culminating in a lot purchase, we have jointly shared trying and frustrating times that would test the patience of anyone in your business. At all times, Susan was extremely professional, patient, cordial and persevering in her endeavors to find the right property. I am not sure I would have stayed the course with one RealtorŪ, had it not been Susan Gunnin. I could expound upon the positive personality, knowledge and professionalism she exemplified during the last nine months, but suffice it to say you can count on me to continue as a client in future real estate transactions. I consider myself fortunate to have met Susan in the crossroads of life." Note from Susan: Since this letter was written, I've worked with this owner on five more real estate transactions.

For Sale By Owner >Not the Best Investment
Some homeowners try to sell their own home, believing that they are as capable as a real estate agent of handling a property transaction. But according to statistics, only 8 to 10 percent of "FSBO" transactions actually close, and many end up in litigation.
If you choose to buy a home with a realtor's help, you substantially reduce your risk. Buying real estate involves more legal and financial repercussions than most people realize. Realtors are licensed and highly regulated professionals who are equipped to deal with the complex issues that arise. For example, if the FSBO seller holds your earnest money deposit, how will you as the buyer go about getting it back if the deal does not close? What will you do if the seller refuses to correct defects in the home or treat a termite infestation? Who pays for re-wiring the house if the electrical system does not meet current codes? What if there are liens against the property?
As a buyer, you have rights written into the sales contract. An experienced agent knows how to protect those rights while negotiating the best price and terms on your behalf.
