identified and then matched with the available

options in the market. This is one of the chief

areas where the agent proves his worth. He will

understand your needs and also be in a posi-

tion to anticipate them because he would have

handled many similar clients in the past. The

various factors to be considered before final-

ising a property can include the proximity of

schools, the availability of parks in the neigh-

bourhood and the distance from your place of

work.

•The neighbourhood: Your agent will advise

you to spend some time in the neighbourhood

to familiarise yourself with its atmosphere. Af-

ter all, you would be spending at least the next

few years in the area and it is the place where

your children will grow up.

•Insurance: Which are the various covers

that you require? Your RE/MAX agent will ad-

vise you as he will be familiar with the area and

know the type of claims that may arise.

Home inspection – Getting one done can save

you a lot of grief in the days to come. A qualified

home inspector will examine the property and cer-

tify it after considering various parameters.

If you are considering selling property RE/MAX

will use its considerable experience and familiar-

ity with the real estate market in your area to give

you an indicative value which you can expect. Most

home owners tend to have a slightly inflated figure

in mind and it is always advisable to consider a re-

alistic estimate before taking a decision to sell your

house. Additionally, there are costs associated

with a sale and the net amount that you can expect

could be well below your expectations.

RE/MAX will prove to be an invaluable ally in your

real estate transaction. The decision to buy or sell

property would be one of the most important fi-

nancial dealings of your life. You need to take your

time and consider all the possible factors before

you make up your mind. Your RE/MAX agent, who

spends most of his time in the field, is familiar with

the area where you are considering buying proper-

ty. If you are a prospective seller he knows the go-

ing rate in your neighbourhood and can get you the

best possible price. You will be well advised to use

the services of RE/MAX in your real estate transac-

tion so that you can be assured of access to quality

service and a fair deal.
