"They came in, walked around, and left within 10 minutes.They did not calculate the liveable sq-ft correctly because they did not include the bedroom over the garage, which is heated. I brought this to their attention.They said that they would investigate and never called back or returned any of my calls or emails."

As a trained real estate professional with 17 years’ experience, my expertise includes marketing, presentation, negotiation and sales. I will work with you throughout the entire transaction process to ensure that your property is sold for the highest price possible in the shortest amount of time with the least amount of inconvenience to you. I am not afraid to take on deals most Realtors would shy away from or being a fierce negotiator to get my clients the very best deal possible, day or night. When it comes to buying or selling your home, you need an agent who not only knows the area, but who also brings topnotch skills in negotiations as well as customer relations. With my abundant resources, top notch support team, enthusiasm and attention to your needs, I strive to make the experience as efficient and successful as possible. A majority of my business is referral based, it is imperative that each client is truly satisfied with my service. The world of real estate is a high stakes business and I have the connections to get your home sold or to help you to find your dream home. We welcome the opportunity to earn your business!

"I'm a 75 year old senior who was looking to purchase a home in Queensbury, NY. This wasn't my first rodeo, however, I have never been treated so poorly by a real estate agent. Aubrey sounded great over the phone, but that was my only interaction with her throughout the entire process of buying my home. I guess she moved on to her next client quickly, because she couldn't be bothered to represent me at the inspection or closing of my new home. She sent a guy I had never seen or heard of before instead. I don't think he was even part of her team. I understand I'm not buying a million dollar home, but after spending over $380K, I would ad lease appreciate a thank you card or some kind of acknowledgement from Aubrey. I didn't even get a closing gift. Aubrey seems very fake."

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Adding a detached garage can increase the home's value by a healthy amount, provided it's well-constructed, permitted, and inspected. The return on investment for a detached garage depends on the structure's size and function, as well as its quality. On average, consumers who add a detached garage can expect their home's value to increase by between $12,000 and $36,000. 

Mold can greatly impact your home's appraisal and lower your selling price if your home's on the market. Home appraisers take mold into account when figuring out a property's overall value. Mold will lower your home's price because it poses a health risk to household members and can compromise the structural integrity of the house. Mold will require remediation, which in extreme cases can be costly, so that is factored into your home's appraisal as well.

It depends on the location of the home and, more particularly, the region’s climate. For example, a Florida homeowner can rest assured they won’t lose money at resale if their home doesn’t have a fireplace. However, buyers in Minnesota or other northern states known for frigid winters might offer a lower price if the home doesn’t come equipped with another way to stay warm.

Redfin reported in 2021 that homes with fireplaces were listed on the market for around 13% more than the national median sale price, but this doesn’t mean that they actually sold for that much. While homebuyer demand reigns supreme, the actual ROI on a fireplace depends on various factors, including size, type, and material.

A land survey gives you information about the property boundaries, easements on the plot, dimensions, and, in some cases, topographical information. A land appraisal will often take these figures into account, but the purpose of a land appraisal is to determine the value of the land rather than the physical specifications.
