Nancy is recognized for her professionalism and local market expertise.
Often people don't realize that a real estate broker can show any and all properties. It is, therefore, more important to pick a broker you can have a good relationship with.

Real Estate Consultant vs. Salesperson
As a By Referral Only® Real Estate Consultant, my business philosophy and lifelong commitment is to provide my clients with exemplary personalized service. I strive to devote 100% attention to serving you because, unlike real estate salespeople, my business is built from referrals.
Marketing for new clients costs businesses lots of time, money and energy. Like any company, I need new clients to stay in business. However, unlike most real estate salespeople, who spend more than 80% of their time prospecting, cold-calling, or otherwise advertising for new business from the general public, I strive to dedicate 100% of my time and energy to my present clients and to those clients who have been referred to me.
Unlike most real estate salespeople, my goal is not the ´´deal´´ or ´´sale.´´ My goal is to build a client for my business. I am in business for the long term. This means that as my client you will receive the attention and dedication to your real estate needs that you deserve. In return, I expect to gain your trust, respect and your heartfelt recommendation of my services to your family and friends.
Your satisfaction is important to me because I don´t treat you as a one-time transaction. My relationship with you does not end when you buy or sell your home. I want to develop strong, lasting, lifelong relationships ... one person at a time ... I want to be your Real Estate Consultant for Life.

About Appraisals >Three Caballeros
When you buy a house or refinance your present home, your lender will ask you to pay for an appraisal to help ensure that the sales price and mortgage amount is consistent with the property's market value. The appraiser will look for "three caballeros" or three "comparables" -- homes that are very similar to the one you are buying -- and will make adjustments to reflect the differences between the properties.
Housing patterns tend to be homogenous, meaning that homes worth $300,000 are usually located in $300,000 neighborhoods. It is important for properties to be within the general pricing patterns of their neighborhoods because over-valued homes, even if they are exceptional, are sometimes difficult to sell at full market price.
This is not the only factor considered in determining the worth of a property, but it is an important one. The buyer or seller may view the property as a home or an investment, but lenders view it in a completely different way. To a lender, property means security in the event a borrower fails to repay a mortgage. Therefore, lenders must know real estate values in order to limit their risks.
