Is Zillow Accurate?
"Should I use Zillow as an accurate evaluation of my home’s value?"

Zillow has never seen the inside of your home and it’s a computer
Zillow comes up with the value based upon what your neighbors are selling for

What Are Contingencies?
"When a buyer has made an offer on a home and the seller has accepted it but the final sale is contingent on certain criteria being met."
This criteria, or contingencies, typically fall under four major categories: appraisal, loan approval, inspections and reports & disclosures
Contingency Timeframes
"Now we're in contract prior to contingencies being removed. Now we're in business."
The buyer now will secure their loan, have their inspections on the property, and review all of the reports and disclosures

"Our first ever home sale. Pat and her team made the experience so smooth. From our first meeting to the last it was all about us and how they made it an enjoyable experience. They were all unbelievably attentive and responsive to our needs.
"My father in law passed and we needed to sell his house. We met with three different agents and we quickly decided to go with Tricia. Tricia and her team are very knowledgeable, energetic and at the top of their game. Everything was spot on."
"Steve and Tricia were excellent. We bought a home while on vacation. We relied on their staff to not only view the house but she positioned us so well, that we followed her advice and we got the house for the price we wanted. Thank you!
