It may only be February 25th but the Spring market is going in full-throttle!
With increased traffic to open houses, despite the winter weather conditions, buyers are making their presence known. I am very encouraged with such an immediate bounce back from the holiday season. Interest rates are still in our client's best interest, that I'm implementing additional strategies to attract buyers and current renters. What are you doing differently as the season changes?
Please share your experiences thus far in your view of the Spring 2008 market.

The Keller Williams' philosophy does nothing but add value to my overall life and career. A corporate culture focused on continuing education, honesty, and teamwork; the fun never stops!

Julie, Buyer. Hudsonville, MI
As a first time home buyer, it was important to me to have a realtor who could lead me through the process of looking for and buying a home or condo. My first impression of Dana was accurate. I knew Dana was the perfect fit for me after our first meeting. Knowing that I was a first time home buyer, Dana spent our first meeting summarizing the steps involved with looking for a place, finding and signing with a mortgage company, and what would occur after an offer was made and accepted. She worked hard for me to find me the perfect place. With her help, I have found a great place, made an offer, and will be closing on it later this month. I was so impressed with her guidance and honesty that I recommended her to a co-worker, who has since purchased and moved into his own house.
You impressed me when you were helped my brother and sister-n-law shop for a new home. After you sold them a home, they suggested that if I try to sell my home that I should give you a call. My brother and sister-n-law were impressed by your work and highly recommended your services. You were extremely helpful, courteous, and very accommodating. I was totally impressed when you had multiple showings of my house right after you listed it. Then, within only two weeks after being on the market, you had an offer on my house. Wow! You had my house sold and closed less than two months after being on the market during a time when it is definitely a buyers market. I am totally pleased with the deal on my house. I no longer have any doubts about the choice I made on selling my home. I greatly appreciated your work and would highly recommend you to anyone. You went above and beyond my expectations. We have become a raving fan of yours.
Alicia, Buyer. - Gaines Twp.
After my husband and I made the decision to buy a house, I knew just what realtor to contact. Dana has been my friend for several years and I knew I could trust to help us with finding our first house. Dana is a great realtor. She took the time to help us research potential properties and showed us a lot of options. She helped us to find the location and features we wanted in a house. Dana is educated about reality and the area. This education helped us narrow our search and to find our perfect first house. After many evenings of looking at houses we found the perfect one! Dana made the buying process easy by explaining it to us and helping us through all of the paperwork. She also got us in touch with a lender. Going to our closing was exciting but also a little scary. Dana helped us through it and even after we got the keys, she made sure everything was going well. Now three months later we are enjoying living in our very own house!
I would just like to say that Dana has been a true blessing to a novice real estate investor such as myself. Her professionalism and communication skills are impeccable. She never hesitates to provide me with valuable information in a timely manner. In addition to the fact that I'm an out-of-state investor having Dana as a Realtor has proved to be one of my most valuable assets.
