If you're thinking of selling or buying a home in the Mount Washington Valley or western Maine, I can give you the expertise you need to get the best deal. I know the market values in just about every neighborhood. It doesn't matter whether you're buying or selling any kind of real estate, I can put my negotiating skills, experience, and connections to work for you.

Buying Real Estate
If you're buying a home, condo or land, it's not too difficult to realize that having an agent represent you is a necessity, and costs you nothing 99% of the time. The cost comes out of the commission from the sale of the home. If you don't have a signed buyer representative agreement with an agent, you should proceed as if the agent is representing the seller. Don't mention anything you wouldn't want the seller to know. The agent also will be unable to negotiate exclusively on your behalf. That's why I always offer a Buyer Representation Agreement to clients that work with me. —The seller may set the commission rate and hire the agency, but as a buyer, you're entitled to buyer representation if you choose to sign a buyer agreement. Why? Because many states recognize that without the buyer, there's no sale. So you have the right to have your own agent, working specifically for your benefit.

I specialize in vacation homes, condos and properties in New Hampshire and Maine. If you're looking for lakefront property, a vacation condo, a weekend getaway or a second home, I'll find the right property to suit your budget and needs. The market is often pretty tight, but I can let you know the best choices available, and keep you informed when prime properties come to market. I do work in specific areas because I need to know the market, the banks, the title attorneys, and the towns in order to serve you best.

My specialty areas are Nordic Village, Eagle Ridge, Hale's Location, Kimball Lake, Kezar Lake, Lovewell Pond, Pequawket Pond, Village At Kearsarge and a lot of great neighborhoods in New Hampshire and Maine where you can buy that luxurious second home you've always dreamed of. I'll find you camps, cottages, land, even an investment property. Just give me a call at 603-356-7200 Ext. 13 or email me, and we'll get things going at your pace.

Selling Real Estate
If you're selling property, I'm in a unique position to help you get an excellent marketing program underway. First, I'm a member of the White Mountain Board of Realtors and the Western Maine Board of Realtors. I can put your property in two MLS systems and gain exposure to double the amount of agents. Many buyers are looking for a home in both New Hampshire and Maine, depending on the price and their needs. You need to be in both MLS systems.

Prudential Joy Tarbell Realty has one of the top real estate agency sites on the web, and your home will have a web page of its own, geared towards the search engines so potential buyers will find properties like yours and end up right on your page--not the home page like most other agencies. Then, you'll be on this site. Your home, condo or land will have its own page here, too. And it will be written differently and optimized so that different people will find your home on my site. My webmaster works for both sites and is a search engine and web marketing specialist with more than nine years experience.

Your home will be featured in Prudential ads, but I do my own advertising as well. You get a lot more exposure that way. And that's just the beginning. I have mail campaigns, marketing handouts, brochures for other agents. I send the information on your property to every agent in the area. You'll get a professional CMA and a comprehensive market proposal. Call me. Call a dozen other agents. I'd be happy to have you compare what I can do, and the results I've achieved. I've been the top producing agent at Prudential Joy Tarbell Realty twice out of the last 3 years. Contact me at 603-356-7200 Ext. 13 or send me an email. Let's get your property sold for top dollar in the least amount of time.
