Frequently asked questions
What type of Real Estate can you help me Buy or Sell?
As our tagline suggests, we sell Residential, Land, and Commercial real estate. We are a full-service real estate group.
I’m not sure if I’m ready to buy a Home. How do I find out?
The very first step is to fill out a loan app with one of our preferred lending partners. Your loan officer will determine if you can buy now, or later, and the steps you need to take to be ready to buy in the future.
Is now a good time to Buy or Sell?
The real estate market fluctuates between a “buyer’s market”, a “balanced market”, and a “seller’s market”. These terms are really just three low/average/high thirds of a pricing spectrum. The start of 2021 began the strongest Seller’s market nationwide since 2006. Inventory was historically low, and so were interest rates. This means there were more buyers in the market, with less homes to buy—so prices went up. Even during the worst recessions, the Tulsa real estate market has remained relatively stable. Call us to discuss your strategy and we will guide you through the best times to buy or sell, based on the market and your particular financial goals.
How much is my home worth?
The three main factors that determine the salability of a home are List Price, Condition, and Location. Home values are in a constant state of flux, and vary greatly between neighborhoods. We will complete a thorough valuation report including our *opinion of a marketable price range. *This opinion does not constitute an Appraisal, or guarantee of any kind. Our pricing opinion is only intended to give you, the owner, an estimated point of reference to guide you through the pricing part of the listing process. Set an appointment with our listing specialist now to discover the current market value of your home.
How do I increase the value of my Home?
There are several ways to significantly increase the value of your home including creating livable square footage, making major updates, repairs, or renovations, and even cosmetic work like replacing carpet, painting, or cleaning up flower beds and gardens around the home. Call us today to schedule a free pre-listing consultation to make the most cost-effective decisions to increase your home value.
How do Home Appraisals work?
There is a big difference between a “Pre-listing appraisal” (ordered by a Seller as part of the seller process), and a traditional “appraisal” (which is ordered by a Buyer’s lender as part of the home buying process). Pre-listing appraisal values are typically much more conservative than an appraisal ordered by a Buyer’s lender…Appraisers do not want to tell a homeowner their home is worth more than it’s actually worth. Conversely, when an appraiser has a Sales Contract in hand from a Buyer’s lender, the Appraiser already knows there’s a Buyer willing to pay a certain price, so they seem to seek ways to justify that price, rather than taking a more conservative pre-listing approach. Call us today to discuss your property to determine is an appraisal is necessary in your particular case.
