Moving to the Rice Lake area?

Moving to a new area is overwhelming by itself, without considering the daunting task of shopping for a place for your family in addition to finding a Realtor you can trust. At RE/MAX Advantage, I understand this, and I am an expert in relocation. I have a long history of finding buyers the right home by going through a very specific checklist to help you efficiently narrow your options.

When most buyers go into home search mode - they may wind up with 50+ listings to consider. It should go without saying that's too many properties to look at if you're limited on time! I can help you to narrow your search down to a couple dozen properties, keeping these items in mind:

• Before coming into town, put your needs into one list. Then write your wants in another. If a house doesn't even meet your needs, there's no need to even spend time looking at it.
• Know your budget. If you are going to get a home loan, secure your pre-approved amount prior to seeing listings so we can eliminate homes which exceed your price range.
• Consider drive time to your job or other activities. Traffic around Rice Lake could be different than what you're used to, so tell me how much time you're ready to spend travelling each day.

Before we meet in person, I could send you recommendations for listings we should see. Or if you've got a list of properties in mind, let me know what you've found. While virtual tours and photos are invaluable, there's nothing like visiting homes in person. I can schedule any necessary appointments with other Realtors or homeowners and map a route. If we work efficiently, we could go to 8 or 10 homes in a single day.

My focus is to see to it that by the time you leave town, you can be comfortable in the knowledge you're on the right track to finding the best home for your family. Call me today at (715) 736-7000 to being your home search.
