Realtors Brainstorm For Business


Posted by Shirley Turetsky

Will the convience of a one stop shopping for all your real estate needs be costing you more than it has to?

Even though rates are down opening up the market for even the otherwise unqualified buyers, realtors are desperately brainstorming to keep their professional status above in the real estate field.

People are learning how to sell their own real estate. Buyers are learning they don't need someone to hold their hand in their buying transactions leaving the realtors concerned with the future need of their services.

You might have heard about some realtors' new strategy, a one stop shopping sort of for buyers. One firm realizing they needed a new twist to keep their service valuable has conglomerated with mortgage companies, appraisers, inspectors, insurance and title companies bringing them all under one roof. Other realtor firms have adapted to the idea with more to follow.

Bringing ease to a buyer by making all the steps of a real estate transaction more convenient for the customer.

What a great idea!
You can buy a home, get insurance, a mortgage, an inspector all without leaving the building.
But is it the best way to go?

For a buyer there are many things to consider when buying a piece of real estate.
Financing for one. Getting the right financing is not something you should leave to chance. It is a process you should be very involved in. No two mortgages are alike.
Not every mortgage company can offer every mortgage plan to suit every buyer. Not every mortgage company charges the same for their packages and that is way it is important to shop around. Shop to find the best mortgage for you.

Appraisers are usually hired by the lending institution and their fee is usually comparable. Know you have the right to request a new appraisal to be done by a different appraiser if you think the appraisal came in too low.

You should hire the inspector you will be paying for so find one that has been inspecting property in the area for some time and has a good reputation of being thorough. If you are not happy with the inspectors report you can question the results.

Insurance, everyone needs homeowner's insurance even cash buyers.
When you are looking for automobile insurance do you call one provider or several to see which one can offer you the best rate and the best coverage for that rate?

Homeowners insurance should be handled in the same way. Not every provider can offer a good policy for every buyer and the fees can fluctuate so it is best to do your shopping. It could save you money in the long run.

When it comes to closing with a title company the only thing that could be different is the fee they charge for their services. All title companies should perform a through search of the property's background. They should make sure there are no liens attached to the property and offer insurance for a clean title to be transferred to the buyer. They will file your mortgage and ownership Deed of your property into the public records. They will handle the disbursements of the money to the appropriate parties involved in the transaction.

So when you are looking to buy your first or next piece of real estate make sure you are not paying more than you have to. Don't let convenience, a one stop-shopping firm keep you from getting the best mortgage deal, the best insurance policy at the best price you can get. Do it yourself, stay in control of your finances and shop around.
