Buyers
“I believe success lies in striking a balance between the emotional and the rational,” expresses Fátima’s approach to the process of purchasing a home. Whether you’re seeking the perfect year-round home, looking for a seasonal residence, or purchasing for investment purposes, fulfilling your vision involves your mind, your heart and your instincts. That’s where we come in.
The relationship is priceless. By understanding your needs, desires and motivations – and by having a thorough understanding of our business and our market – we guide and advise to help you achieve that delicate balance between the intellectual and the emotional. Both aspects are vital because the decision has to feel right to be right.
As we assist clients in selecting, negotiating and purchasing the optimal property that meets all the criteria, the decision, at some point, will come down to the numbers. We recognize successful real estate transactions for what they are: part psychology, part geography and sophisticated financial rigor.
Initial Consultation
This meeting is designed to gain a solid understanding of your interests and objectives, as well as familiarize you with areas of Naples that match your personal and investment goals. We will advise you on the home buying process and present an overview of current market conditions. We may also introduce additional professional resources who can provide guidance on other matters such as financial, accounting and legal issues.
Exploration
Once we establish your requirements, we will begin exploring options in the Naples real estate market. We select properties from listings available from every estate agent and developer in Naples, as well as from private sources specific to the requirements outlined in the initial consultation. Suitable properties will be previewed by our consultants, eliminating options that may not be acceptable and saving our clients valuable time.
Property Tour
We then arrange visits to each of the pre-selected properties. Information on the local area, amenities and prices will be discussed. Once a suitable property has been identified, we provide a market analysis of the corresponding neighborhood and advise on local market condition and recent sales.
Offers and Negotiations
We have the duty to represent your best interests as your real estate representatives. Preparations for writing and executing a real estate contract will be made exclusively through our consultants. You will receive expert advice at each step of the negotiation process, and we will skillfully negotiate the purchase of your chosen property, obtaining the most favorable terms.
Contract Management
As licensed realtors in the State of Florida, we are trained to execute all real estate contracts for our clients. We manage the legal process, working with a team of appraisers, accountants, attorneys and title agents to ensure that we reach a successful conclusion: ownership of a private piece of real estate in Naples, Florida.
Buyer Representation
Having a buyer’s agent protects your best interests. There are clear benefits to working with a Buyer’s agent when seeking to purchase a home or investment property. It is possible to buy a home directly from the developer or from the listing agent, however, developers and listing agents represent the seller’s needs in the transaction. Having a buyer’s agent means having an advocate protecting your best interests and providing guidance from the negotiation process through to the closing table.
