Buying a Home Requires Many Difficult Decisions. Make Sure Your Realtors are Top Local Experts.
Your home is probably the biggest purchase your family will
ever make, and it involves many decisions that go beyond simply choosing one
you like.

guide you through the entire process, from viewing homes and financing, to

the Shreveport-Bossier area - even listings not yet on the MLS, through our
professional Louisiana real estate affiliations.
- Our expert local knowledge of the Shreveport-Bossier
area should be invaluable to you, not just in terms of real estate, but also
schools, neighborhoods, the local economy, and more.
- Every local real estate market absolutely has its
own trends and opportunities. This can vary greatly, even one
neighborhood to the next. The Shreveport-Bossier area is no different! It's our
job to steer you into opportunities and out of traps.
- What is the true market value of the home you are
interested in? Is it priced too high? Is it a bargain that you should
jump on? We help home buyers make decisions like this every day, and we'll make
sure that YOU get the best value for your money.
- Negotiating with sellers can be stressful.
We will help you negotiate, so that the final contract includes your
best possible terms and conditions.
- You should know absolutely everything about the
property you are buying! You and a member or my team or I will view
every home that you are interested in, together. And prior to closing we will
make you fully aware of any and all inspections available to you.

Real Estate Contracts >Contingency Sale
Sellers may be reluctant to accept an offer that is contingent on the sale of another property. However, such a sale can be structured to minimize the risks.
The seller should put a limit on the amount of time that the buyers have to accept an offer, and they should keep their home on the market during that time. They should also reserve the right to require that any contingencies be met within a short period of time, ideally 24 to 48 hours, if they get a second offer. This is called a "First Right" contingency.
Contingent sales can work well for the sellers. The buyer is not in a position to ask for concessions on price or terms and may be able to get interim financing. Each situation is different, however, so go over the terms with your real estate agent before accepting a contingent offer.
