![[Lake County Home Search]](images/homesearchtop.gif)
Home selection and showing... There are many ways to search for properties. At any given point during the day, homes are constantly coming on the market. These homes, listed through the Multiple Listing Service, are disseminated to all members of the MLS. Leslie has daily and immediate access to all of the newest properties on the market. Many of the web sites on the internet are filled with dated and inaccurate information, so internet searching alone for a home will not typically result in the finding of your dream home. Other ways to locate a home is on a driving tour, builder's model or open houses. WITH ALL ALTERNATIVE SOURCES, PLEASE BE SURE TO INCLUDE ME. AT THE VERY LEAST, TELL THE OTHER PARTY THAT YOU HAVE AN AGENT AND GIVE THEM LESLIE'S NAME OR CARD. THIS WILL ENSURE THAT LESLIE WILL BE ABLE TO REPRESENT YOU OR NEGOTIATE ON YOUR BEHALF. Together you and Leslie will decide the best time to view homes, and the number of homes to see. A few tips for house hunting: - Give Leslie enough time to schedule properties to view. Some sellers have showing restrictions.
- Be on time, irritating sellers' can cost you a home.
- Wear comfortable shoes that are easy to take on and off.
- Respect the sellers' home, it could be yours in the future.
- Let me know what you like and dislike. It helps me do a better job.
- Bring your checkbook so you are ready to make an offer.
- Don't get stressed about buying a home, it should be fun.
- If you go into an open house, tell the agent that you are working with Leslie.
- If you visit a builder or builder's model, do not sign in. Leslie will be unable to negotiate on your behalf should you become registered with the builder.
- Remember, loyalty pays off for both of us!
