Can Your Realtor Negotiate
http://www.westsidegroup.com/ Can Your Realtor Negotiate the Best Sale For Your Home?
When you get ready to sell your home, you want to be sure that the real estate agent who represents your property will do the best possible job. You may need to interview a couple of agents or realties before making a decision on which one should sell your property. Don't hesitate to ask questions or talk to several realtors before choosing one to sell your home.
How do you know if a realtor will do a good job for you? Here are some things to look for when choosing an agent.
1. Look for a good communicator. This person should be able to explain complex terms clearly. He or she should be readily available, and return telephone calls within a reasonable amount of time. You may even want to ask for the agent's email address so you can shoot him or her a quick question, if the need should arise. If the agent seems uninterested in answering your questions, or is unable to explain things to your satisfaction, chances are this person will not do the best job in representing your house on the real estate market.
2. Check his or her experience. How long has this person been selling houses? Does he or she like the job? Have any sales awards been reached? Has the person been with the current realtor a year or longer, or does this person seem to have jumped from one job to the next? How knowledgeable is the agent about real estate in general for your area and state? Is his or her license up to date?
3. How interested does the agent seem in your property? Does she ask a lot of questions? Does he spend time carefully assessing your property during a walk-through and a sit-down discussion about the home's merits and weaknesses? Can this agent offer suggestions about how to enhance your property's appearance or value? Does he or she have a sales plan for marketing your home?
Don't be in a hurry to go with the first agent you find in the yellow pages. Get one who knows the business, is easy to talk with, and is interested in selling your property. You'll be glad you did.

TOPNYCAPTS.COM ANNOUNCES STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WITH REALTYMX
http://www.TopNYCapts.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: Kelly Kreth, Kreth Communications, (201) 417-8691
TOPNYCAPTS.COM ANNOUNCES STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WITH REALTYMX
Partnership Offers Potential Largest Single Database of ?Human Verified? Real Estate Listings in NYC and Surrounding Metro Areas
Created in Response to Craiglist?s New Fee for Posting Real Estate Listings
New York, February 16, 2006--TopNYCApts.com, a real estate portal, announces that it has partnered with RealtyMx to have the potentially largest single database of ?human verified? real estate and apartment listings in New York City and the surrounding metro areas.
The service is free for individual brokers; there is a minor fee for agencies after a free trial. It also provides exclusive leads to agents. In addition, the shared leads are a great free service for tenants and buyers as they can contact all TopNYCapts.com brokers with one form.
?As you know Craigslist.org has become an extremely popular starting point for many tenants and buyers. Unfortunately, a few bad brokers abused the system and spammed it out. Starting March 1st, Craigslist will start charging $10 per ad per broker. This may help the quality of listings, but it will likely hurt many individual brokers and smaller agencies, and variety will be severely reduced,? comments Michael Zittel, president of Serr.biz and creator of TopNYCApts.com.
?We are always trying to create successful relationships with real estate marketplaces for the benefit of our clients. The integration with TopNYCApts.com, a well established real estate portal, is even more important at the current time, while our users are looking for effective marketing alternatives. TopNYCApts.com has proven itself over the last few years as an efficient and reliable web site for both clients and real estate brokers. The RealtyMX system now has a new channel of listings distribution, and we shall keep providing the cutting edge tools for the real estate professionals who have chosen us,? says David Elgrabli, president of Apply Media Inc., creators of the RealtyMX system.?
To respond to the urgent needs of brokers and agencies for a free place to post apartment listings on a site that is spam free, TopNYCapts.com randomizes the listings that are never more than seven days old. Combined with human verification, this effectively reduces spam 100%, yet still provides a wide assortment of listings.
Additionally, TopNYCapts.com provides a "BLAST SEARCH." This means when a tenant or buyer posts a "BLAST SEARCH" it is sent to ALL preferred members, up to 50 real estate firms. This forces the brokers to be competitive in their rates and pricing. It functions similarly to e-loans where the mortgage brokers compete for the customers business. Of course, if a client prefers, they can just browse and contact individual brokers, no fee agents and real estate brokers directly.
Also, all listings and search results are converted to RSS (XML), so tenants can add the searches to their News Readers, or Yahoo, AOL, MSN or Google home pages and cell phones. There are two benefits to this: the tenant doesn't have to go to the site to see what's new and the client doesn't have to send email, which is often blocked with spam blockers.
?I wanted to provide an easy, low-cost way for bulk uploads and have successfully incorporated this into the site--500 listing with the click of a mouse, rotating tile ads, shared and exclusive leads, and profile pages. Preferred membership for an entire firm is only $59.95 per month,? expounds Zittel.
Zittel is also working on a directory of "EXCLUSIVE" broker buildings. Any member of TopNYCapts.com who EXCLUSIVELY represents a building, will be profiled on TopNYCapts.com. In short order , TopNYCApts.com will offer an extensive directory of EXCLUSIVE BROKER properties not found elsewhere.
In addition to TopNYCapts.com, the service will soon be completely rolled out nationwide, state by state with an emphasis on major cities on a site called TopUSArealestate.com.
