Marketing Support and Transaction Coordination

Transaction Coordination

Online transaction management makes it easy for all parties to stay informed.

TRANSACTION COORDINATION involves attention to deadlines and due dates in taking a home through the process from For Sale to Sold.  Information on your Listing Agreements, Purchase and Sale Agreements, and all other documents has to be accurate and legible.  Names must be spelled correctly and completely.  The street address and tax parcel number must be filled in accurately to ensure that the title company is able to locate the correct legal description of the property being conveyed.  Contact information such as telephone numbers, email, and mailing addresses is also important.

The Purchase and Sale Agreement and Addenda list specific dates for performance for offer and acceptance, for contingencies such as financing and inspections, and dates for closing and possession.  These are vitally important dates.  I can help you keep tabs on the circulating paperwork and remind you of approaching due dates.

Yes, getting a property sold and title properly conveyed to the new owner involves a lot of work and attention to detail.  And at last, after the papers have been recorded, funds are disbursed and you receive your commission check!

What's next?  Another buyer looking for their dream home?  Preparing a market analysis for a potential new listing?  Where will this business come from?  Your sphere of influence, your contact database, your lead-generation plan -- that's where!
