She also provided a couple of outstanding real estate agent referrals for me to choose from, and between my loan officer and my agent, the whole process was more than just smooth -- it was actually FUN! And ultimately they got me into a home that I love, at a price I'm happy with, and on a loan that was the best in the industry. I couldn't be happier with my decision to work with Kiel Mortgage, and will recommend them to anyone I know who's buying or refinancing a home.

The service tech arrived on time and inspected the windows inside and out and confirmed that the icing we were seeing was normal for this type of window. Our home buyer and the real estate agent arrived and he explained the situation to them with clear examples. He said that all windows ice to some degree in below zero temperatures and that the icing on these was consistent with metal frame windows of this age. He suggested turning down the humidifier and installing deflectors to direct the heated air for the ducts away from the windows.

He called back once before the appointment to confirm that he had the correct entry in the county auditor's website. He arrived on time at 10AM and spent about 1.5 hours touring the house. He was very friendly and personable and easy to talk to. He seemed interested in our situation and did not try to rush through the appointment. He took numerous pictures throughout the tour. At the end of the visit, I paid him his fee by personal check and he promised that we would have the completed appraisal report and invoice that evening. True to his word, the 26 page appraisal report arrived the same evening about 6:40PM by email. It seemed logical and well thought out and compared favorably to two recent reports I have reviewed from west coast appraisers. Since that time, we have had 4 real estate agents tour the house. Two of them feel that the house should sell for a price similar to the one developed by Jeff. Two feel that we should ask about 5% more. Only an actual sale can tell us the truth. Jeff was careful to explain that there were few houses on the market similar to style in ours and many of them were older or less well maintained. He also said that market conditions in January were very different than they would be later in the year, when the number of properties offered for sale increased. His appraisal was for the the mid-January conditions.

"Candice was very knowledgeable and did a great job finding comps. My goal was to price my home for a correct listing price. I have access to the MLS so I should have been able to price my home but I wanted an unbiased opinion. It was great to confirm what I had suspected (I am biased toward my own home so I didn't want that to get in the way)."

FAQs for real estate service projects in Covington, WA
Yes, hiring a real estate agent is worth it. Many homeowners make the mistake of trying to sell their homes by themselves, thinking that they’ll save money on the commission, but what they save on the commission, they very often pay for in frustration and concessions on the sale price. Hiring a real estate agent to handle the sale of your home not only makes the process far easier and takes the burden off of you, but most homeowners get more for their homes when going through an agent because of the marketing and salesmanship they bring to the table.
Real estate agents work on commission, so the cost of hiring an agent will depend on the cost of the home you’re buying or selling. The listing contract should include information about the commission for both agents, which is usually 6 percent of the sale price in total or 3 percent per side. With an average national home value of around $440,000, the typical commission per agent is $13,200. However, you won’t pay this total out of pocket. Instead, the commission comes out of the sale price of the property.
Interviewing real estate agents is the best way to find the right person for the job. Consider asking the following questions to find the best agent for you:
How will you show my property?
Will you do open houses to market my home?
How will you handle dual agency (representing the buyer and you as the seller)?
Should I make repairs to my home before listing?
Will you get professional photos taken of my home?
What is the best price you think we can get for my property?
How long do you expect the sale to take?
You don’t legally need a real estate agent as a buyer, as you can represent yourself, but you should always hire an agent as a home buyer. A professional real estate agent will have access to local MLS services to find homes that meet your criteria and needs, can connect you with other professionals—like a mortgage broker and real estate attorney—you’ll need for the purchase, and can often negotiate a better price for your home to help save you money. Plus, as the buyer, your agent’s commission comes from the seller’s proceeds from the sale of the home.
