Whether you are looking for a condo as a residence or as an investment, the market in this city is very tight, so you will find yourself in a very competitive market. With our large database, we will know quickly when one is put on the market in this city. Our agents can do a market analysis of the property for you depending on whether you want it for a residence or an investment. Our agents can advise you on trends in the market, any local building restrictions, and potential development. They can inform you of properties in nearby areas where the market is less competitive. If you want the property for investment, they can advise you whether the property would give you the best return on your investment and what the occupancy rate could be. To try to prevent you from entering a bidding war or paying too much, our agents can help you make an offer and negotiate with the seller. Our goal as a buyer representative is to ensure that your purchase sets the groundwork for a successful future.

Selling in a tight market, such as this city should provide you with a lot of offers, but even in a tight market, market trends could make waiting to sell a better idea. When you are ready to consider all the offers, it is tempting to select the buyer with the highest offer. However, the ability of potential buyers to be able to close on the property in a timely manner should be investigated. If the sale of another property is necessary before a buyer can close on the property, you may want to select another offer. Our agents can investigate and share any information on the ability of potential buyers to close quickly. Letting one of our agents represent you as a seller's agent provides you with the assistance you need to make a quick, successful sale.
