WORK WITH ME – ALL YOUR OPTIONS
I want people over 50 to be confident with real estate. I have multiple ways that you can work with me to gain or regain your real estate confidence. If we don’t do something regularly then we may miss a step in the process and real estate is not something we all do every day.
Real estate is something that I have done just about every day for over 22 years. I am confident with buying or selling homes and I want you to be too. Buying and Selling real estate is expensive, it’s often your biggest asset and once you hit the big ’50’ you want to make less mistakes, less losses and more gains.
Our first step is to explore your options. I have a free 15-minute EXPLORE YOUR OPTIONS pathway and you can book a time here.
If money or time is short or you want a real estate refresher then I recommend doing my 90-minute BUYING YOUR HOME THE EASY WAY online course. You can find out more here.
You may want to go it alone and have the odd question, when you want me to be your SOUNDING BOARD, you can book a 45-minute session here.
To work together in a more constructed, deeper way then we move into the ADVOCACY PATHS. There are three.
Buying Advocacy paths include the COMPLETE PATH and the COLLABORATIVE PATH and you can find more about these below.
The third Advocacy Path is the SELLING YOUR HOME PATH. It may not be your home, it may be your beach/hills/country/city house or apartment, your investment house, or a home you are the executor for. Find out more about SELLING YOUR HOME PATH below.
ONLINE COURSE – YOUR INTRODUCTION TO BUYING A HOME
BUYING A HOME THE EASY WAY.
My 90 minute online course to refresh your home buying memory or get you started along the path.
It’s fast, it’s affordable and easy.
It includes:
- an introductory glossary of commonly used terms,
- a ‘how-to-‘ information sheet about working out what is your perfect home and
- the 6 questions you should answer before you buy.
SOUNDING BOARD- WORK WITH ME WHEN YOU NEED
DO YOU NEED A REAL ESTATE SOUNDING BOARD?
You are exploring real estate, you have questions and I have answers. I listen to what you are thinking and give you guidance as you need.
Finding the perfect house is never easy and neither is selling. I really do understand that there are many options for you. Which one is right for you? What about price? Is there anything else you need to know or research? Making an offer, bidding at auction, the rules and processes involved in real estate buying and selling.
If you are already On the Market and working with an agent and it’s not going as smoothly as you would like, you may have questions or want a forward strategy, I can help. Without interfering or alienating your agent, the Sounding Board gives you an independent expert in your corner. This service is flexible, allowing you to reach out whenever needed to explore options and strategies.
In our next ‘Meet Up’ or Sounding Board session (which is just getting together online or on the phone) we have 45 minutes for you to ‘pick’ my very experienced, real estate brain.
I don’t catch up for coffee or get paid in coffee, real estate is too financially and emotionally serious for that. We book a time, you bring your questions and together we explore your options.
You may book more than 1 session. They are generally prepaid, however may be invoiced weekly beyond the first prepaid call. I do limit them to 45 minutes because beyond that we are losing focus and neither of us wants that.
So, you have real estate questions, I have real estate answers
(If I believe that you should be speaking to someone else, then I will tell you and guide you to that person).

ADVOCACY – HELP WHEN SELLING A HOME
WORK WITH ME TO SELL YOUR HOME
Selling a home, investment property, beach house, house in the country, any home.
You want guidance, you don’t want expensive mistakes or decisions guided by people who don’t have your best interests at heart or maybe there are more people involved and you want an independent voice. Being an advocate, helping you through the selling process, and guiding you to your best outcome.
I will save you time – you don’t need to learn the process or even think about it, I take you through it
I will save you money – no expensive mistakes, no having to try and understand what the agent is telling you. On your side and by your side. The agent works through me, and you and I discuss what is necessary for your best outcome.
I will save you effort. No wasted energy figuring it all out. By your side I guide you, my experience and know-how so you don’t have to worry.
WHAT DO PAST CLIENTS SAY?
You won’t see photos or names of my past clients. Confidentiality is one of my values.
