About Sharon E.

I am a Philadelphia to Florida transplant (via Delaware). Operation Desert Storm Veteran and Surviving Spouse of a War Wounded Vietnam War Veteran. I have been in The Lee County Florida area since 1995 and love it. I believe in constant education so I am almost always taking a course. I have 3 fur-children. Twin cats and a dog. Daryl, Morgan & Peanut respectively. I love nature and butterflies, so for a hobby I have established 2 Butterfly gardens and raise butterflies. 1 of my gardens is listed as an official Monarch waystation. Raising caterpillars is a very difficult but fun thing to do. I love working with Real Estate and I love helping people find their perfect home, piece of land to build on, or investment property. I also enjoy helping you get your best price when Selling. Here is a little about what I do. .. I assist prospective buyers with their home buying process. This begins with providing a property list in response to their initial request for home or land information, getting information back as to what property they want to see. I research the property and make arrangements to view, take my customer out to physically see, take notes. Provide excellent customer service to my buyer and show respect to the home seller and their property. I write up my Contracts IAW all Regulations and present my Buyers' offer to the Seller and wait to begin negotiations. I prepare all required paperwork and submit to my Broker for review. I work with my Buyers' mortgage company and title company and with the Sellers agent to assure that all documentation and required inspections are completed and ready for a smooth closing. I take their initial good faith deposit and immediately (within a day) get that money to the escrow agent, get a receipt of funds and make sure my Buyer has a copy of everything. I work my Sales and work closely with my Buyers thru the complete Buying process and I attend my closings and usually present my Buyers with a closing gift. I also keep in touch after the process is complete. I assist potential Home Sellers beginning with their initial request for a property valuation. I pull comps and perform calculations as necessary to determine current market value range. I meet with the homeowner, view the home taking photographs and notes. I then make additional adjustments to my CMA if necessary based on home condition and upgrades. I sit with my prospective Sellers and we discuss what their expectations are and what the realities are. I tell them about my company and what they can expect of me as their Agent and make no promises that I cannot keep. After they sign a listing contract, I present it to my Broker. I research the property and ask the Seller to address any questions that arise. I contact a title company and request a title search. When working in Cape Coral, I attain information on my Sellers home pertaining to any fees that may still be required for Water and Sewer. I ask my Sellers to find out exactly what they owe so they will know if the listed selling price will cover it, at that time we also set a lowest price that they can go and not lose money on the home sale. I arrange for a Professional Photographer if needed. And I continue with my advertising of the property for sale. I take calls from prospective Buyers Agents and prospective Buyers and I answer their questions while setting up Appointments to View the property. I take offers and present them to my Seller for review and perform negotiations IAW my Sellers wishes. After a deal is confirmed, I present a copy of the final contract to my Broker and the title company. I find out who the Buyers' mortgage company is and make contact with them to let them know that I will be staying in touch to make sure there are no problems with financing. I contact the title company to make sure escrow has been received in a timely manner, get a copy of the receipt and forward it to my Sellers. I work closely with the Buyers agent to assure all money, Inspection and documentation is done IAW timelines specified in the contract. And I follow closely thru closing. I attend the closing and usually present my Seller with a closing gift. I stay in touch after the closing for follow up. I provide excellent customer service throughout the process and handle anything that arises. It's alot.. but when you love what you do, it's not much. I hope you like what you've read and give me a call for your next Real Estate transaction.
