LONG TERM RENTALS

MAKE RENT PAYMENT
BUYERS - For most of us, purchasing a home will be the biggest investment we will ever make.  This is an investment in both time and money, commodities few of us can afford to waste.  I am committed to helping you make the most of that investment, by seeing that you get the most value for the dollar and by showing you only what you are seeking, I PROMISE NOT TO WASTE YOUR TIME. 

SELLERS - Most people who have attempted to market and sell their own property find it to be a frustrating experience.  Knowing all the state laws and requirements, obtaining forms, holding earnest money, setting up shownings, even setting up the closing, all require expert knowledge and experience.  How to market your property, where and how to advertise, even for a Realtor, this is a costly learning curve.  Let an experienced Realtor handle all these problems for you.

INVESTORS - In this correcting market, Real Estate is still one of the best long term investments.  Our area has a constant need for LONG TERM RENTALS for folks moving in to service the Tourist industry.  Three bedroom homes rent for $650 - $1200 per month.  We still offer the best prices on New Construction homes ideal for this market.

SELLER'S TIP:  If you can't sell your property, think about renting it.  Also, Lease/Purchase is a good option with Financing being difficult for even people with good credit.  You can cover your mortgage payments and buy the home of your dreams.  Call me for suggestions.

LANDLORD HUMOR: 

Excerpts from actual letters sent to landlords...

The toilet is blocked and we cannot bathe the children until it is cleared.

This is to let you know that there is a smell coming from the man next door.

The toilet seat is cracked: where do I stand?

I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is running away from the wall.

I request your permission to remove my drawers in the kitchen.

Our lavatory seat is broken in half and is now in three pieces.

Will you please send someone to mend our cracked sidewalk? Yesterday my wife tripped on it and is now pregnant.

Our kitchen floor is very damp, we have two children and would like a third, so will you please send someone to do something about it.

Would you please send a man to repair my downspout? I am an old-age pensioner and need it straight away.

Could you please send someone to fix our bath tap? My wife got her toe stuck in it and it is very uncomfortable for us.

When the workmen were here, they put their tools in my wife's new drawers and made a mess. Please send men with clean tools to finish the job and keep my wife happy.
