Real Estate Consulting Services
Real estate was once considered a relatively safe investment, an asset that was identified by steady growth in value and predictable trends. Unfortunately, those days have ended, and a new frontier has arrived. New technologies, fear of a new world pandemic, rising interest rates, government inference, and direct corporate real estate investors are disrupting residential real estate in ways that has increased the stakes for every residential real estate decision we make.
I can help navigate the new Changing Real Estate Market. My real estate consulting experience has helped residential real estate lenders and investors to stay ahead of market changes and navigate the new conditions and reality.
Consulting is the Foundation of my Services
I provide nontraditional real estate services on a fee-only consulting basis, providing impartial information, based on research and experience, that addresses each client's requirements.
My services, which I have been providing for almost 10 years, includes providing corporate clients with property evaluations, inspections, market analysis, and data collection. These same services are now available to individuals.
Based on my previous 25 plus years of consulting experience, I approach each client opportunity on a consulting basis tailored to individual needs and goals. Real estate consultants provide clients with the necessary information to make their decisions based on research and expertise. Rather than focusing on a transaction, the consultant’s job is to ensure overall investment success for their client.
Distressed Property and Foreclosure Services
No word strikes greater fear in a homeowner’s heart than “FORECLOSURE”. If you have fallen behind on your payments, don’t panic and don’t get scammed. There are options available, but you need to act quickly. The more time you have available, the better it is to plan and evaluate your options.
As a Short Sale and Foreclosure Resource and a Certified Distressed Property Consultant I help homeowners assess their situation and guide them through the process. This process includes assembling information needed, pricing the property, developing an exit strategy and contacting the mortgage company on the homeowner’s behalf. The exit strategy taken depends on whether the homeowner desires to remain in the home or is resigned to moving on. This process is also applicable to property owners who wish to just liquidate unwanted property.
Senior Real Estate Planning Services
Individuals, 50 years and older, face concerns and needs that can be different from younger generations. Baby Boomers, as we are called, are faced with concerns such as downsizing or remodeling to fit their senior lifestyle, affording Senior Living Accommodations, rising medical expenses, and passing assets to their heirs on a tax efficient basis.
Today, age 65 is simply middle age and a time to start that new career that you have dreamed about. It’s time to turn a favorite hobby into an income producing endeavor. Or maybe you just decide to kick back and enjoy the fruits of your previous labor. Whatever your dreams, you need a plan to accomplish them.
As both a Chartered Advisor for Senior Living and a Senior Real Estate Specialist, I have the experience and education to help Seniors develop a program that can meet their expectations and goals. Whatever your dreams, I would like to the opportunity to work with you and your family to accomplish them.

Property Inspection and Evaluation Services
What is the Fair Market Value ?
Whether you are selling or buying your home, our Inspection and Evaluation Services solves the problem that’s everywhere in the real estate market has: SIMPLY, a lack of quality information that can be used to make accurate forecasts of current and short-term market conditions.
Investors, homeowners, and buyers miss real opportunities because they don’t have the market data to identify or model the information to make informed decisions. Our Service combines the characteristics of both the Broker’s Price Option (BPO), which estimates a property’s fair market value, and the more familiar Comparable Market Analysis (CMA), which estimates the property’s list price.
In determining a property’s price, we use an innovative platform that offers data ranging from tax and mortgage history to listings, sales, valuations, demographics, psychographics, and school information, to name just a few. By using this system, our Report is developed to reflect the real-time values of a property not just the possible listing value of the property. It also indenifies
Price is one of the most critical parts in any real estate transaction, whether you are buying or selling. In pricing a home, the comparable properties selected, and adjustments made can either produce an accurate report or an inappropriate one. This is why it is important that the comparable property selected represents the property being examined and are selected by an agent who has been trained and certified to do this.
I have been certified by the Center for Specialized REALTOR Education, a wholly owned subsidiary of the National Association of Realtors, and the National Association of Broker Price Opinion Professionals to prepare both CMAs and BPOs.If customers can’t find it, it doesn’t exist. Clearly list and describe the services you offer. Also, be sure to showcase a premium service.
