"Bringing the Service BACK in
Real Estate"
On The Buyer's Side
It's a Buyer's Market
If you have been waiting for the Real Estate market to bottom out....it has.
More sellers than buyers make it easy to find the home of your dreams.
Interest rates are at a 40 year low and many homes are being sold below market value.
Pearland Real Estate, Friendswood, Clear Lake, and the Houston area housing market has not suffered as much as the rest of the nation.
The fact is that some areas are actually increasing in price.
This is an indication that more home prices will be going up very soon.
Don't wait for the market to shift. Find your great deal NOW !

BEWARE OF DISCOUNT BROKERS
Discount Realtors are out there and leaving the consumer without the proper representation. Sure in these uncertain economic times, using a discount broker might be attractive to the consumer to save a little money on their Real Estate transaction. However, Real Estate is a complex business.
Can I negotiate the price down if I don't use a Buyer's Agent? NO
The common misconception is that you can save money by being your own representative when buying a home. When a seller decides to list their home with an agent, they sign a LISTING AGREEMENT which includes a predetermined commission that the seller will pay the listing agent when the home sells, whether a Buyer's Agent is involved or not.

James Potenza is an excellent agent. He made the process smooth and non-stressful. James let the property sell itself and always pointed out the positive and negative aspects so we could make an informed decision. There was never any pressure to buy and he encouraged us to take our time and shop around. James definitely had our best interest in mind throughout the entire buying process. We will certainly refer him to our friends and relatives. B.Hand Pearland, TX

James Potenza was on time and on target in helping us find a great house in the limited timeline that we presented him with. He was with us every step of the way, from negotiation to closing, and always ensured that our best interest was a top priority. We ended up with a great house in a great neighborhood and couldn't be happier! A buyers agent is truly the way to go, thanks again James! T.Fisher League City, TX.

PRESS RELEASE
"Homebuyers are demanding to be represented without a conflict of interest."
"Today's Homebuyers don't want to be SOLD"
"Exclusive Buyer's Agents are providing a different approach to the Real Estate Industry. They focus their service on representation and consulting instead of sales. Today's consumers want an expert to assist them with their home purchase. Today's Homebuyers don't want to be SOLD. Consumers want an experienced Realtor to look after their best interests, not the Realtor's wallet.
EBAs can offer this kind of service at no charge to their clients. Being represented by an EBA does not cost the buyer anymore than if they had no representation at all. The seller has an obligation to pay their listing agent a predetermined percentage of the sales price, regardless if the buyer has representation or not. In fact, EBAs can actually save the buyer thousands by carefully analyzing the property values and using their experience and negotiation skills. EBAs are experienced home buyers and know what to look out for. They are the first to point out any potential problems that could cost the buyer thousands of dollars. EBAs strive for great service in hopes of referrals and repeat business."

A note from James: You have access to all the homes for sale on the Houston Multiple Listing Service including homes in Pearland Real Estate, Friendswood, Manvel, Clear lake, League City, Kemah, Seabrook, Sugar land, Alvin, and the greater Houston areas. You also have access to many valuable homebuyer's tools and resources. Feel free to search as long as you want and educate yourself as much as possible.
It is my policy not to send out annoying emails or make unsolicited phone calls. (I don't like these either) No one in our office will hand out your contact information or try to chase you down. If you have provided your information to us, you must specify that you would like to be contacted. Otherwise we will only contact you to ensure we have everything correct and that you are receiving the information that you have requested. When you are ready to move forward with your home purchase or if you have any related questions, you can contact me on your own time.
I believe in a completely different approach to Real Estate. I don't like high pressure sales when I am the consumer and my clients don't either. My approach to Real Estate is as if I were going to buy the home for me and my family. I hang around home inspectors and I have learned how to "pre-inspect" any home that my clients visit with me. It has saved a lot of time and headache down the road. If I see a potential disaster for my client, I immediately point it out so that we can move on. There is no point in pushing anyone to buy a home. My clients appreciate that and I feel they will continue to use my services.
I do not believe in Buyer Representation Agreements which bind the client to the Realtor. I feel that there is no need for an agreement that would put unnecessary pressure on my clients to use my services. Before I commit to helping my clients, I ensure we can work together as a TEAM to find them the best home with the best price and terms that meets their needs.
Thank you for visiting my website. I am available on your schedule if you have any questions.
