All REALTORSŪ Are NOT Alike. Request a Free Presentation On How I Will Market and Sell Your Home.  The industry term for the formal presentation that a REALTORŪ makes to prospective home sellers when trying to earn their trust and business, is A "Listing Presentation". Don't list your home with a real estate agent without it! I would love the opportunity to make such a presentation to you. I'll visit your Ft. Lauderdale, Broward County and Hollywood home, and together we will walk through the process, considering the positives and potential negatives, if any. You will then see exactly how I propose to sell your home, within your time frame and for as much as the market will bear. I will tell you where I will advertise your home, both in print and on the web. With the dramatic growth in homebuyer usage of the web, you MUST have a top REALTORŪ with the knowledge and experience to extensively market your home online. And you'll find out what your Ft. Lauderdale, Broward County and Hollywood home is worth, because part of my presentation will include a CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) of your home. I'll compare your home to others like it in Ft. Lauderdale, Broward County and Hollywood that have recently sold, and to others that are currently on the market. This is a very good method for determining the fair market value of your home. I make free presentations and prepare CMAs for prospective home sellers every day. I've completed literally hundreds of them, and know exactly what puts a big SOLD sign in your front yard! I would welcome the chance to make a presentation for you. As with the other services I've mentioned on this site, it is free and without any obligation. Call me or complete this form to get started....  Yes, you can request a FREE in-home presentation of how I would market your property in Ft. Lauderdale, Broward County and Hollywood!

First Time Buyers >The Real Bottom Line
An important part of buying a house is sitting down with your real estate agent or a mortgage lender to get a clear idea of how much you can afford. They will add up all of your monthly expenses, the mortgage payment, insurance, real estate taxes, homeowners or condo association fees--and the grand total can throw you into shock!
The important thing to remember is that the grand total isn't really the bottom line. When you add your tax savings to the equation, you may be pleasantly surprised. During the early years of your loan, almost all of the mortgage can be deducted from your state and federal income tax. The same is true of your real estate taxes. If you use part of your house as a home office, you may be able to qualify for additional tax savings. In some areas, homes with ground floor apartments are popular for offsetting part of the mortgage and offering even more tax savings.
When you make calculations about the monthly costs that include the tax savings, you may find that owning your own home is less expensive than renting a house or apartment of comparable size.
