I became a licensed, full-time real estate broker in 1990 and have been actively invoved buying, selling and renovating properties since 1978. I am experienced in all stages of residential real estate including Buyer Brokering, listings and sales, investment, renovation, new construction, and real estate design. Since relocating to North Carolina in 2004, I have also been involved in condominium conversions, design/build projects, custom home building and new development sales. Here’s what some of my former clients have to sayAbout Larry

Buying or selling a home is serious business and I know my clients’ time is valuable and they often have better things to do than worry about the small (but critical) details involved in the purchase or sale of a home. Handling these details is one of my top priorities. My clients are discerning and have every right to expect the best of their Broker. You’ll find me as serious about your real estate needs as you are and readily available when you need me.

What I Will Do For You

* Buyer Brokering and First Time Homebuyer Specialist

I am SFR and e-PRO certified. I will diligently search for properties that meet your specific criteria. Once you find a property you want, I will analyze its true market value and show you how the neighborhood has trended over time. I do not believe in “Dual Agency”, representing both the buyer and seller in a single transaction. I will only represent one side or the other so that I may focus exclusively on doing what is in your best interest.

* Sellers’ Representation

I am a master at Internet marketing. I will guarantee that your home is given the most effective marketing possible, and I will design that marketing to give your home maximum exposure to local, national and international buyers. As a member of The Leading Real Estate Companies of the World, I have access to local resources at special discounted rates as well as the largest relocation network in the world. Additionally, I can offer suggestions that you may wish to implement to make your home attractive to its ideal audience, which can help you get top dollar. I can take care of everything you need, from start to close.

* Negotiating

I do not represent both buyers and sellers in a single transaction. I am focused exclusively on doing what’s best for you. I know how to craft deals that work. I will communicate with you throughout the entire process from start to finish. You will know at all times where we are and what’s being said so there are no surprises. My objective is a smooth transaction and closing.

* Resources

I can offer you contact information on personally-vetted professional resources from inspectors, mortgage lenders, contractors, tradesmen, etc. Long after you’ve purchased I will be there for you. Incoming doctors or medical residents, ask me about special programs designed with you in mind.

I welcome the opportunity to answer any questions you might have about buying, selling or current market conditions. Please call or e-mail me any time, I would be happy to discuss your specific real estate needs and goals.

•  THE DIFFERENCE - Unlike my competitors I know neither Buyer nor Seller is well served when there's only one agent in the middle. When this happens the agents focus is on earning the entire commission and there is a tremendous likelihood of a conflict of interest or the perception of a conflict of interest. Both are unacceptable. If you believe that you deserve a Broker who is 100% committed to doing what's in your best interest, you've found him.
  
•  BUYERS - I Save You Time! I do this every day and have for nearly 20 years. I can make the entire process much smoother and less stressful. I have ready access to personally vetted professional resources to put at your disposal.
  
•  SELLERS - My experience and resources make the process much easier and are designed to save you time. I am a master of Internet marketing and guarantee your home will receive the broadest possible exposure designed for maximum results.
  
•  BUYERS - I Save You Money! I offer the resources and experience to help you analyze the "true market value" of any property you are considering. It's been shown that Buyers buying directly form the Seller typically pay more on average than those buying comparable properties with the assistance of a Buyer Broker. When it's a Buyer's market I can help by strategic counseling and my negotiating skills. When it's a Sellers market I can help you get the home you really want employing both my abilities as a negotiator, as well as advising you on how to construct your offer to make it the most appealing to the Seller. In a competitive market, the benefits of this advice cannot be understated.
