phi·los·o·phy: any personal belief about how to live or how to deal with a situation. A belief (or system of beliefs) accepted as authoritative. a.) the most basic beliefs, concepts, and attitudes of an individual or group b): calmness of temper and judgment befitting a professional. My philosophy serves to define who I am. It is what I believe to be true and the underlying foundation of my character and the core values that have established my standard of excellence as a person and real-estate professional. I needn’t feel to claim or substantiate that I am honest, forthright and trusting; I am. Instead, I want to be judged by my actions and the level of service and satisfaction that I provide, rather than what I say. It is to that point that I have grown thru experience and stand firm in what I believe.

An Exclusive Buyer Agent acts solely on behalf of the Buyer. They work for an office that does not take listings so they never have anything to "sell" you, but instead offer their specialized service, knowledge, and expertise in assisting home buyers. An Exclusive Buyer Agents time is not spent on listings appointments and servicing listings, but focused entirely of finding and showing property. An Exclusive Buyer Agent will take the time to expose a client to thirty, forty or more listings and allow you to decide. An EBA (Exclusive Buyer Agent) cannot "double dip" the commission because an EBA carries no listings and is not tempted to "steer" a client toward more profitable listings. When you call the listing agent, you are the customer, and the seller is the client. That means the listing agent has what is called a "fiduciary responsibility" to behave in the sellers best interest. When you work with an EBA you are the Client, and I work in your best interest.

Property Appraiser questions, answered by experts

Whether or not new windows increase property taxes depends on where you live and by how much your upgrade increases your home’s value. Smaller projects likely won’t result in increased property taxes, but it’s always a good idea to err on the side of caution and check. Contact your local county appraisal department for the most accurate information about property taxes in your area. 

If you can’t find any records online, you’ll need to contact your county clerk’s office to do further research. They should have property records on file, or can at least point you in the right direction of who to contact. You can also speak with your neighbors about when their houses were built because they were likely built around the same time.

An FHA appraisal is valid for 180 days from the effective date of the report. In some cases, you can have the appraisal recertified if you make your request before the original expires so that you still may obtain an FHA loan. If approved, your appraisal update is valid for one year.

A property valuation, sometimes called a comparative market analysis or CMA, provides a real estate expert’s opinion on how much your property will sell for. It takes many things into consideration, like the condition and location of the home, but ultimately, all that matters for a property valuation is what a buyer might be willing to pay for the property. An appraisal is more concerned with determining the value. A valuation is to estimate what you’ll get for a property, while an appraisal helps a lender establish loan-to-value ratios and loan amounts.

In most cases, you can expect home automation to boost your home value. This technology makes the homeowner’s life easier and more comfortable, and some provide increased safety and protection. Buyers will likely recognize value in security systems and utility monitors, as well as comfort-focused upgrades that save on electric bills while keeping interior rooms at the desired temperature and humidity. On average, you can expect a 50% and 75% return on investment on home automation services, and potentially even more if the automation reduces homeowner’s insurance.
