Sellers Security Plan

Once you make up your mind to buy or sell a home, peace of mind is your next priority.  One of the many ways that professionals like ourselves at ERA Cornerstone Realty Group can help gaurantee this peace of mind is through the ERA Sellers Security Plan.

This popular program guarantees the sale and closing date of a customer's home, and advances equity from the seller's current home toward the down payment and closing costs of the new home.

The plan's motto is "We Will Sell Your House, Or ERA Will Buy It!"  Created to assist customers whose current home needs to be sold to enable their next home purchase, the program uses a "Five-Point Marketing Plan" to help maximize the sales potential of a home.  Customers are guaranteed a sale and closing date once they meet requirements and accept the ERA offer.  The homeowner is then advanced equity for the purchase of a new home.

This program is still the only one of its kind offered by a national real estate brand.  Please feel free to get in touch so we can talk about how we can help put your plans in motion and put your mind at ease.

 

Credit Scores

Ever wonder how to improve your credit score?   How do inquiries really affect your credit score?   What is included in your credit score?   All of these questions can be answered by visiting www.myfico.com.  

In fact, recent legislation has mandated that the credit bureaus allow you to see your credit report for FREE!     

Once a year you can visit www.annualcreditreport.com and get a copy of your report from all three major credit bureaus.   You can even dispute any incorrect information right at the bureaus’ website.    For your FREE booklet on credit, call my office today!

Realtor V.S. Licensed Real Estate Agent

So, you’ve decided to sell or buy a home.  The first step is to decide on what real estate professional to guide you carefully through this important transaction.  According to the California Association of Realtors (CAR), last year more than 90% of California home buyers and sellers bought or sold their homes with the assistance of a real estate agent.  So what exactly differentiates a “Realtor®” from the rest of the real estate professionals?  And what does “Realtor” with the little “r” with a circle really mean?

 

First of all not all real estate professionals are Realtors®.  By definition a Realtor® is a real estate professional who is a member of the National Association of Realtors®, (NAR).  NAR holds us to a strict code of ethics, and requires a higher level of obligations and professional development, including additional, continuing education.  These obligations go over and above those mandated by law.  Under the code of ethics, Realtors® put the needs and well-being of their clients above anything else.  We are held to a strong commitment of fairness, integrity and moral conduct in business relations.  We are to avoid exaggeration, misrepresentation, or concealment of relevant facts relating to the property.  In addition, should a dispute arise between a home buyer or seller and their realtor®, members of the association agree to take part in arbitration.

 

On your checklist to qualify and choose a real estate professional, it may be a good idea to strongly consider using a Realtor® to get the most out of your transaction.

Google News Flash!

ERA Cornerstone Realty Group has been continuing to make every effort to stay ahead of the current Real Estate Marketing trends.  We have found another way to do so with the recent addition of Google!

 The National Association of Realtors came out with some very interesting statistics for 2005; within the United States.  9 out of 10 people use a Realtor.  And those who did had sales 16% higher then those who didn’t.  Great choice!  In 1995 only 2% of Buyers used the internet to find a home to purchase.  In 2004 74% did!  And in 2005 77%!  That is 8 out of 10 people.  This is why internet marketing is VERY important.

  What does this mean to you?  It helps confirm ERA is the right choice for your real estate needs.   We know that ERA.Com gets between 25 and 30 million page views every month.  And now, ERA has an exclusive inside track with Google Base Search Engine, resulting in our listings being included more often in the search results.  This is very exciting as we now offer you another place where your home will get in front of Buyers.  ERA has the edge on internet marketing, and I am current with the Real Estate trends!
