Purpose of this blog is to provide education and information to home buyers. And to some extent, home sellers. Purchasing a home can be a complex process, however, that difficulty can be minimized with the needed information and some education. Purchasing a home is one of the most expensive and important decisions one can make. For that reason alone you should work with a full time licensed and professional real estate agent. Having a professional will help you achieve your goals, with a lot less expenditure of time and money. We all rely on professionals, few of us fix our own cars, cut our own hair, and dentistry…well forget it. Another purpose of this site is to allow me to speak out. A recent survey found that only 5% of consumers held real estate agents in high esteem. Yes I have seen or have heard of the abuses, and I don’t like it. It’s my hope that the information and education you get from this blog will have the consequence of purging the industry of the unprofessional bums.
All information on this site are my opinions and my opinions only. (and your opinions are welcome as well.) I plan on holding myself accountable for any information I promulgate. (I’ve been waiting for years to use that word). I will also be writing mostly about the market area I am most familiar with, (North Cook County and South Lake County.) Information from other sources will be noted. Other sources may be the newspapers, multiple listing services, other web sites, and so on.
