A Meeting With New Clients Who are Buying a Home in Chicago
A Saturday Meeting with New Home Buying Clients
This past weekend I met with new buying clients at my office in Lincoln Park. We initially met last summer at an open house I hosted of a new construction single family home in Bucktown. They said they liked the fact that I had kept in touch but wasn’t pushy.
So now we are working together to sift through listings that match their search terms in areas like Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Roscoe Village and Lincoln Square.
One of the things that I promised them was I wouldn’t just throw them on an auto-search and ply them with needless dozens if not hundreds of Chicago real estate listings. They smiled and said that would be great as they still, years after registering at Dreamtown’s website, are getting pointless and unwanted listings from that outfit.
A Promise to Personally Email Relevant Listings
What I promised them is that, on the basis of what we had spent the last 90 minutes talking about, I would do for them what I do for all of my clients who are looking to buy a condo, single family home, townhome in the Chicago real estate market – I will send the personal emails every time a new Chicago real estate listing hits the market that meets (or exceeds) their expectations. This includes size, location, price, and finish.
What I then promised them is a continuation of the type of information I shared with them as we looked through a smattering of relevant listings when we met. That includes the financial background of the listing (what it sold for historically, what is owed on the property, what its real estate taxes are), how long the listing has been on the market, whether the listing appears value priced or wishfully priced, and, with respect to pricing, what current comps suggest.
Here’s the deal – in the past nine years among the most productive Chicago real estate professionals (talking about me) it has been the discerning of relevant information (combined with skilled representation and negotiation) that has best benefited my numerous buying and selling clients in pursuing successful strategies to get the homes they want at the best possible prices.
And so the journey begins.
Don’t Go Crazy When You Are Looking for a New Home!
Here’s the question for you – when it’s time to find your new home specific to a location, a school, a high “walkability” score, finish quality, size, price, etc. – don’t you want to arrive at the doorstep of your new and loved Chicago home with a real estate professional who can walk you through the dwelling and edify you clearly and easily about the home’s pluses and minuses?
That’s what I provide. And it’s what has distinguished me to my clients and what they tell friends and family when they refer me. And it’s what I provide day-in and day-out as we make our way to your new home.
And it means no ridiculous automated emails with a plethora of irrelevant listings.
So when it’s time to make your way to your new Chicago home, don’t hesitate to call me at 773.848.9241 or email me at The Real Estate Lounge Chicago of @properties.
