A relationship that lasts a lifetime. So what sets me apart and why should you work with me?   I want to make your real estate experience, whether it is buying a home or selling your current home, a great one that you'll always remember.   For me, it's a relationship that lasts a lifetime. I enjoy utilizing current and emerging technology tools that are leaving many real estate agents trailing behind.   Technological developments in recent years have changed nearly every industry, and real estate is no exception.  Social Media, Video Presentation, Transaction Management Platforms and Data Driven Insights are all tools I use to impact property buying, selling and investing. When you hire me as your Realtor, I want you to know you are not simply a transaction to me.   I understand this can be one of the largest investment you’ll make and it can be a stressful time.   I work to bring that stress level down and I also try to help you remember this is an awesome time in your life.

A few years back, I produced a fishing series with Mark Noble here on Saint Simons Island Georgia. Mark basically taught me how to fish these coastal waters. Mark had some very private spots where he only took clients and on days when we would film in these locations either my Dad or myself would be a guest on the episode. Mark is still a very active charter captain running charters out of Saint Simons Island GA. You can book him, or contact him for information on Thunder Chicken Popping Corks, by calling 912-638-7673 or check out his website at GoldenIslesFishing.com and at www.georgiafishing.net Think Tank by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license ( https://creativecommons.org/licenses/... ) Artist: http://audionautix.com/

Hey, what's up everyone? You know, I want to talk to you about something that is really exciting.  Have you ever wanted to be a hero to someone and you know, not the kind of hero that shoots webs out of their wrist, but an everyday hero to a friend, family member or an acquaintance. We've got a really good program here at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, for referrals. So what is a referral? Let's say you've got a friend or a family member, or even yourself, and you're moving cross country or even out of the country. If you let me know where you're going and a few parameters, I can match you with another Berkshire Hathaway agent in our referral system to whatever city you're going to, and a lot of countries around the world. So think of it like this. I can match you with a realtor in the city that you're going to, you're not having to find one out of the newspaper. You're not having find one on the internet. I guess I would say there

Hey what’s up everyone, so I want to talk a little bit about something no one in real estate wants to talk about - Stigmatized properties.   A property can become stigmatized when a tragedy or misfortune has occurred that affects a home’s value for reasons that have nothing to do with the physical state of the structure.    There are a lot of ways a home can become stigmatized but most commonly, a death will stigmatize a property.   For this video, we’ll look at natural and unnatural.   A natural death typically won’t stigmatize a property but an unnatural one can.     So how do you know if a property has been stigmatized due to an unnatural death, the property seller must disclose but they do not have to disclose natural deaths.   Typically, when I see a home is being sold by a trust or probate, I ask just to make sure. So the question, Is it a good deal to buy a stigmatized property? There are a lot of factors that go into that decision but from a monetary standpoin

Hi, I'm Jeff Williams and associate broker at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Hodnett Cooper Real Estate. I work in real estate in and around Saint Simons Island Georgia, a small seaside town on a barrier island.  So right now I'd like to talk to you a little bit about what does the closing attorney do in a real estate transaction, in Georgia.  Typically you have a buyer, they find a property they like, they make an offer and it's accepted. At that point, the buyer will choose a closing attorney to handle the transaction, but one thing we need to be aware of is that even though the buyer has chosen and is paying for the closing an attorney, the attorney actually represents the lender in the transaction. The most important thing that the closing attorney will do is a title search of the property to make sure that the property can legally be transferred in a sale to the buyer. That's the Cliff Notes version of what the closing attorney does but in reality they do quit
