It’s a simple question with a complex answer. Where you live means something unique to you. It’s a question that evokes a multitude of different answers. It’s also a question that matters deeply to Diana Colin!
Helping you buy or sell a home isn’t the goal, helping you define where you live and what that means to your life is! Diana Colin and her team know that this question is not about us, it’s about you.
Where you choose to reside reflects on the life you’ve created, your goals, your present and your future.
In our experience, a home isn't a dream home because of its room dimensions. It's about how you feel when you walk through the front door, and the way you can instantly envision your life unfolding there. This is about more than real estate - it‘s about your life and your dreams. We understand you are looking for a new home, and we want to be the real estate team to help you. We work with each of our clients individually, taking the time to understand their unique needs and lifestyle, and we want to do the same for you. It's incredibly fulfilling to know we are helping our clients open a new chapter of their lives. That's why we work so hard to not only find that perfect home, but also to handle every last detail of the purchase process, from negotiating the terms of sale to recommending moving companies and other needed services.
The decision to sell your home can be a daunting one. Whether this will be your first time on the seller’s end of the table or you haven’t been there in years, you probably have questions about how the selling process works — and how to find ready willing and able buyers as soon as possible. We'll help you with all the most important aspects of selling a home. With all the complexities of the real estate market, trust an experienced and real estate professional who, when you decide to sell, will be able to provide you with expert consultation at each step of the sale process.
Buying and Selling real estate isn't a transactional deal for me. My referral based business is driven by growing and supporting my community of clients. Our relationship spans during your homeownership. I will help you maintain, repair and upgrade your home through communication reminders and providing trusted referrals within my network of contractors.
Factors such as the time of year and market conditions play a big role in how quickly a property sells. How you price, market and stage your home are also very important variables that will affect how long a home remains on the market.
There are many factors that affect the housing market, but understanding what to expect – and being prepared beforehand – can make buying and selling a property at the same time possible.
A professional appraiser will inspect a property and compare it to other similar homes in the area. From there, a fair market value is determined. Unless you plan on paying all cash for a property, you will likely need a home appraisal.
Sharing particular information when connecting with a real estate agent can help give you an idea of your home’s value in today’s market. The in-person expertise of a real estate agent will give you a more accurate opinion of your home’s value.
If someone is selling a home that needs repairs – yet chooses not to fix them – they may choose to list a property as-is. Disclosures and inspections are typical steps in the process. In an as-is sale, a buyer is willingly purchasing the home in its current state with full knowledge of its condition.
