<h2>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">No, this is not a joke. Not a prank. Not a gimmick.</span></h2>
<h3>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The government has a little known program called the 'Good Neighbor Next Door' Program.</span></h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The U.S. Housing and Urban Development agency, HUD for short, has properties all across the country that they sell for 1/2 price of what the current market value is.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So if a house is listed for $100,000, you could get it for $50,000.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><i>You can sell it after 3 years and keep the profit.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Wowsa!</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><u>How it works:</u></b></span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The government has an inventory of houses located in Revitalization Areas</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">They offer these homes for 50% of list price</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">In return you commit to live there for 3 years.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Also the FHA Insured Mortgage Program can make down payment as low as $100</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><u>Who is eligible:</u></b></span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Law enforcement</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Pre-K- 12 Teachers</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Firefighters</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">EMT's</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><u><b>Why they do it:</b></u></span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">HUD wants to strengthen Americas communities</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><u>The catch:</u></b></span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">You sign a silent second mortgage for the other 50% that you must repay if you move or sell in less than the three year period.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The property inventory changes weekly.</span><br />

<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ulfGRZvcx7k/UfGU3u71VMI/AAAAAAAAAB0/7Ukc9U7xqg8/s1600/HwG.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ulfGRZvcx7k/UfGU3u71VMI/AAAAAAAAAB0/7Ukc9U7xqg8/s1600/HwG.jpg" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When to sell your home is a highly personal decision and must be based on both facts and lifestyle considerations.</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1. Ask yourself why you want to sell?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> Are you underwater in your mortgage, wanting to downsize, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> or just simply sick of </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">moving the lawn?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2. Equity. Will you make, lose or break even?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> The best way to make an educated decision is to assess the value by having </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> Heather </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">create a </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">comprehensive and details Comparative Market Analysis for you. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> This will arm you with a great deal of </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">information to make a good decision.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">3. When do you want to move?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> Simple as it may sounds, people sometimes do overlook that moving in winter is</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> slightly less convenient.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">4. Is everyone involved ready and committed to this move?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> If not, often sabotage creeps in to the situation in multiple ways.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">5. Is your home ready?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> Do you have unfinished projects, repairs, long overlooked maintenance things </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> you </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">need to tend to?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">6. Are you prepared for staging?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> To make your house presentable you should be ready and willing to put away and </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> store and de-clutter </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">many of your belongings. This means you won't have ready </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> access to your 'stuff' til the house sells.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">7. Are ready to keep your home show ready?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> This means keeping your home sparkling and spotless all the time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">8. Remove your valuables.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> I recommend putting all your valuables and jeweler in a safety deposit box or </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> locked safe.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">9. Modify dinners. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> If you tend to cook with a lot of strong spices and items with strong odors, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> you may want to avoid</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> cooking in your home during peak show times. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">10. Be ready to split like a banana.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> It is best to leave your home when potential buyers are coming by to view </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> your home. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> Find a place in your neighborhood that is comfy and safe for you to go to on whenever these showing opportunities arise.</span></div>

<br />
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Improving your home need not be overly time consuming or expensive. </span></h2>
<h2>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: left;">
Enjoy these smart, quick, easy and budget friendly upgrades you can do to your home this weekend!</div>
</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h3>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Here are 10 smart weekend Projects:</span></h3>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1. Landscaping. Curb appeal will have a great affect on your daily quality of life by how it welcomes you home everyday, and it adds value by making it more attractive to potential buyers someday.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2. Exterior paint and polish. A weekend scrub down or paint job is well worth your time and effort.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">3. Windows. Wash them. Seal them. Paint the trim. Very nice.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">4. Front entrance: Make it clean, tidy and presentable. Paint the front door a welcoming color and place flower pots on either side of the door. Putting in a really nice front door is a good idea.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">5. Deep cleaning. This allows you to see areas of your home you would usually not see and may identify and leaks or issues so you can take care of issues while they are still small.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">6. Feng Shui it. The harmonious placement of objects in your home really does make a difference in your day to day enjoyment in your home, and how well you connect with the people in it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">7. Go on an Anti-Clutter Binge! Get rid of it. Give it away. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I like the three bin method for sorting. Mark 3 bins this way: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">* Friends (Use it/Love it) , </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">* Acquaintances (Infrequent use/ not vital) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">* Strangers (Never use it/Don't love it). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> Use these to help you determine each objects worth and value to you. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">8. Paint a room. You might be surprised on what a lift this can give your home.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">9. Polish those floors. Depending on what type of floor you have, it needs some care and maintenance. Be it sealing grout, waxing or just a good scrub, cleaning your floors will brighten your home and make it more pleasant to be in and to show.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">10. Pull out the Fridge, Stove, Washer and Dryer. Inspect the floors under them and the walls behind them. This allows you to identify and correct leaks, mold or gunk that might be attracting pests into your home.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />

<h2>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Making a wise investment means making wise choices.</span></h2>
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A radon test is a small investment relative to the peace, safety and ease of correction it provides.</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You want the radon test as part of your inspection contingency. It does cost more, but it is well worth it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>If radon is found, you can ask the seller to correct this prior to closing.</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Correcting a radon issue means putting in venting pipes so it is not built up in the ground beneath your home, and costs somewhere int he neighborhood of $1000.</span><br />

<h2>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It is best to be as well informed as possible when moving to a new area.</span></h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My family moved so many times for my husbands career, that I got quite good at knowing what to look for. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Often we had to find and move to a new home sight unseen. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Once, three days before our move, on a whim I googled the address of the home we would be renting.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The search engines brought up multiple news reports of a major drug bust that just occurred in that home, and how the police had been watching it for months due to gang activity.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Needless to say, there was no way I was moving my family into that house.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I had done all my research, due diligence, and thought we would be moving to safe, quiet, suburban home. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Obviously not the case!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<h2 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Here are Heather Maier’s top 10 suggestions </span><span style="font-size: large;">to help you sell
your home quickly</span></h2>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
1. Price it right. This is the number one factor.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
2. Get a CMA – Comparative Market
Analysis so you can make data-driven decisions and make sure you are listing
your home for a price that is both fair, and will make your home sell quickly
in whatever the current market conditions are.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
3. Clean up the front of your
home. First impressions count.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
4. Remove all clutter and organize. Organizing
shows that your home has been well cared for.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
5. Pack up and store as much as you can. Let your home be a blank slate for the buyers
to imagine it as their own.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
6. Purge! Get rid of all the things you don’t use, need
or like.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
7. Clean. Clean everything. Windowsills, baseboards, windows. Everything.
Clean counts.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
8. Organize those closets. Not only will this make your home more
presentable for sale, but it will make things easier for your come move time.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
9. Make your kitchen spotless!
Including organizing the cupboards. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
10. Make the house smell clean, pleasant and
inviting. <o:p></o:p></div>

<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ulfGRZvcx7k/UfGU3u71VMI/AAAAAAAAAB0/7Ukc9U7xqg8/s1600/HwG.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ulfGRZvcx7k/UfGU3u71VMI/AAAAAAAAAB0/7Ukc9U7xqg8/s1600/HwG.jpg" /></a></div>
<h3>
Here are 10 things you may wish to know before renting in
Virginia:</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
1. Read the fine print. Always make sure you know what you are
agreeing to.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
2. Some leases require you to pay HOA
(Home Owner Association) or Condo Fees in addition to the rent you are already
paying.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
3. Prepare to pay a nonrefundable
application fee for the places you want to rent.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
4. Know your credit score before you
apply. Many landlords will not consider
tenants with a credit score below a certain level.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
5. Have your checkbook ready. When you apply, be ready to submit a check
for the first month’s rent and security deposit with it.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
6. Always disclose pets. There are plenty of pet friendly
communities. Expect your pet deposit to
be around $250- $500.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
7. Be aware of carpet cleaning
requirements. Especially when you have pets.
Many landlords require the carpets be cleaned annually or bi-annually.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
8. Know your budget and how much you
can really afford.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
9. Plan your timing. Landlords won’t hold a property empty for an
extra month until you’re ready to move.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in;">
10. <span style="font-size: large;">Call Heather Maier to help find
your new rental home!</span></div>

<!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="font-family: Symbol; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol;">·<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 7pt;">
</span></span><!--[endif]-->Avoid discouragement. Find out quickly if the
property you are interested in has already been rented. Quite often it takes the public websites and
rental sites up to a week to show it is not longer available.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left: .75in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2; text-indent: -.25in;">

lifestyle desires.<o:p></o:p></div>

<!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="font-family: Symbol; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol;">·<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 7pt;">
</span></span><!--[endif]-->Get facts in advance so you won’t be surprised
by clauses and fine print later.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-left: .75in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2; text-indent: -.25in;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">IMPORTANT:</span> Most
people do not know that it is the landlord that almost always takes care of my
finders fee for you! So you, my friend, have
no reason not to call today!<o:p></o:p><br />

<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ulfGRZvcx7k/UfGU3u71VMI/AAAAAAAAAB0/7Ukc9U7xqg8/s1600/HwG.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ulfGRZvcx7k/UfGU3u71VMI/AAAAAAAAAB0/7Ukc9U7xqg8/s1600/HwG.jpg" /></a></div>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
Why did I become a real estate agent?</h2>
<h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I guess the real question is why does anyone do what they love?</div>
</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
My hobby has always been looking for, reviewing and analyzing the profitability of different properties for myself and others. It is a natural fit and something I have always enjoyed doing without pay.<br />
<br />
When I found myself at a cross roads, being very successful yet very unhappy in the work I was doing, I decided to be bold and make a change. This kind of work is less secure than what I was used to. There are so many unpredictable and uncontrollable variables that can affect your ability to make a living.<br />
<br />
<b>The one thing I knew for sure is that I know how to work in a way that gets results.</b><br />
<br />
I have always been that person who can take difficult or seemingly impossible situations and straighten them out. I am that guy you call when you have a concept or idea, and can make it happen.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;"> Results. Results is what I do.</span></b><br />
<br />
Good results are what people need and are counting on in all their real estate transactions.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Whether buying, selling or renting, I put 100% into making things go as smoothly and profitably as possible.</span></b><br />
<br />
I like working with people, and enjoy making this process easier, well informed and less intimidating for them. Giving people good information so that they can make good data based decisions is an essential part of the service I provide.<br />
<br />
Another key reason I switched to this career is to have the flexibility to work with nice people. Simple as that may sound, working with pleasant, nice people really adds to my enjoyment and quality of life.<br />
<br />
I was blessed to have multiple offers and opportunities of Brokers to work with, and I chose what was the best fit for me. I was the first agent for a start up brokerage, working for a young broker that I sensed was going to be very successful. <br />
<br />
I followed my instincts and was glad I did. <br />
<br />
Working for Kareem Fleming @ <a href="http://www.kazoproperties.com/" target="_blank">KaZo Properites</a> and<a href="http://www.kazopm.com/" target="_blank"> KaZo Property Management</a> has been one of the best decisions I ever made. <br />
