"Thank you, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!"
Dear Lisa, We want to thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU for your advice, assistance and patience during the selling of our home. Although it only took 6 days from the point in time that we listed our home until we had a firm offer - this time seemed much longer and it was reassuring for us to know that we could call upon you at any time to discuss the process. As it was our desire to have a quick sale, your team’s up front advice helped us show off our home’s greatest assets. We know that the buyers of our home, first noticed it on the internet, so the extra effort you put in to preparing the video was also critical to the quick sale. We were obviously ecstatic, when two offers were received above our asking price, within a week of listing the property! It is very apparent that you really know the real estate business! Lisa, you are the Best!
Thank You.Crystal Greer and Steve Toner.

Closing or Settlement >The Settlement
The final stage of a home sale transaction is the time to tie up all the loose ends. The buyer and seller will sign the settlement sheet at the closing, detailing all of the charges that each party has incurred during the sale of the house. It is crucial to go over the sheet for accuracy and to make sure that you understand everything on it before you complete the transaction.
When a contract is negotiated, each side agrees how to divide the loan fees (or points), as well as the other closing charges, such as state or local taxes or escrow fees. Your real estate agent can go over the settlement sheet and help you compare it with your purchase agreement. The seller's charges usually include the brokerage fee, the mortgage payoff, and any charges involved in clearing the title, as well as pro-rated property taxes, payments for termite treatment and escrow for repairs that could not be completed by closing. The buyer's costs include charges for the loan and title searches, insurance and any other legal fees. A good closing officer will go over the settlement sheet line by line, explaining each item and correcting any misplaced charges.
