As top Lorain and Western Cuyahoga County, Ohio REALTORSŪ in Avon, OH; Avon Lake, OH; Bay Village, OH, and Westlake, OH we have a combined 39 years of full-time experience and the track record you are looking for. We are listing and buying specialists in the Western Cleveland, Ohio area also serving Eastern Lorain County, Ohio and the surrounding cities.
Before signing a contract with any REALTOR, make sure you know EXACTLY how your home will be marketed AND how that agent will keep you informed of on-going market conditions. Most sellers who did not sell in 2009 did not realize what was happening within their market area. Do not make that mistake in 2010, list with agents who promise and have a track record of keeping their sellers personally informed at least bi-weekly of current market circumstances. There is a vast range of skills, experience, and track records! A "Listing Presentation" is an industry term for the formal presentation that a REALTOR makes to prospective home sellers, trying to earn their trust and business. Do not list your home with a real estate agent without knowing how they will keep in-touch with you on an on-going basis! We would love the opportunity to make such a presentation to you. We will visit your home, and together consider the positives and negatives (if any!). You will then learn exactly how we would propose to sell your home, for as much as the market will bear, and within your time frame. We will show you exactly where we 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 REALTOR that can extensively market your home online! Our extensive web listings are presented on at least 24 sites and search engines! We promise to prove to you through extensive research what your home is worth in today's market. You are then accurately informed and can make an intellectual decision to proceed or not to proceed with the sale of your property. Many sellers chose to wait; be thorougly informed before you make that decision. You should KNOW the proper fair market value of your home before deciding to sell. You also need to know of the risks of waiting to sell, ask us! We make free presentations and prepare accurate market analysis for pospective home sellers every day. We have literally done thousands, and know exactly what it will take for you to place a "SOLD" sign in your front yard. We would enjoy the chance to make a presentation with you. It is totally free and without any obligation. Call us! Or fill out this form and we will get back to you quickly... Ken and Lois Kodger

About Appraisals >The Language of Real Estate Agents
Technical terms can be confusing to people who do not work in a profession, and real estate agents use language that may be confusing to many home buyers and sellers.
If you find your eyes glazing over when your real estate agent starts talking about escrow, clear title, easements, encroachments, contingencies, financing, appraisals and the closing process, don't hesitate to ask for a translation. Buying or selling a home is a major step, and professional real estate agents are totally committed to helping you understand the process thoroughly so that you can make informed decisions.
The simple transaction of trading the sellers' house for the buyers' money has become complicated by several hundred years of custom, common law, and state and local government requirements. Consumer demands have resulted in up-to-date rules that communication be as clear and understandable as possible. Real estate agents work to create an atmosphere in which you feel comfortable to ask questions.
