Let's Get it in Writing!

Have you ever heard:

• My friend knows someone that wants to buy my house -
• My neighbor has a family member that wants to buy my house -
• buyers agent feedback: my client likes your listing and is going to make an offer -

PUT IT IN WRITING!

There's nothing wrong with hearing the above. In fact it's kind of good to hear isn't it? Wouldn't you rather hear positive things about your listing than negative? Sure who wouldn't. My point is I don't want you my seller, my client, getting too excited until I have a purchase agreement in front of me.

Verbal offers mean nothing in real estate. They are just that - verbal.

I've seen the above examples happen many times. Some even had me thinking we were getting an offer but until we have that p.a. in our hands, we do not have an offer. Believe me I want nothing more than to have an offer on your home. That's why you hired me, that's my job as your listing agent - to sell your home!

If you are in the market to buy or sell real estate in St. Clair Shores or the surrounding Macomb County area, give me a call or email and I'd be happy to assist you. To start searching for homes for sale, sign up for a free Listingbook account.
