I’ve come to realize, most people don’t know what it really takes for a Realtor or company to be successful.

The public mostly sees the agent who is out selling. However, what you don’t always see is: the admin, marketing, accounting, HR, transactions and other departments that keep your real estate transactions moving.

We built the team around the idea that we can all do more together and provide a better service for you, the client.

Because of that, we can provide you with better marketing, back end support, updates throughout the process, and more attention to both your personal needs and the needs of your transaction.

You win every time by working with our team because our agents aren’t worried about the details, and can focus on…

We are reading through the book "Be Obsessed or Be Average" by Grant Cardone. We picked this book a few weeks back before a lot of the major changes took place, but the timing couldn't be more relevant. 

Now is the time to get ahead, even if the world seems to be upside down.

This book is not for the faint of heart. It's harsh and well... sometimes just offensive, but the message is timely. If you aren't obsessed with what you do, you aren't allowing yourself to make a big impact on your space. 

We'd love to know your thoughts.

I have always had a passion for physical fitness -- running several marathons, interstate bike races and other events. This obsession for self improvement contributed greatly to my success throughout my eight years as a Wildland Firefighter.

As some of you may already know, I have been training the last year for a bodybuilding show. I put in hours of work, months of dieting and calorie restriction, early mornings and massive amounts of willpower to make this happen. Training for this show was a true challenge that took sheer discipline, determination and grit.

As you might have guessed...

The show has been canceled.

Do I feel like all my work was for nothing? Absolutely not. 

 

Here are some lessons I’ve learned along the way:

Flipping homes is more than just a business model.

Taking a property and sprucing it up has the power to revitalize a neighborhood, raise the price of homes in the area, create more curb appeal to move faster on the market, and last but not least, make your living area more homey and inviting.

Here, we take a look at 11519 Dawn Street in Eagle River.

This home was listed and sold by Matthew Lindsay at Precision Home Group in the summer 2019, then it was completely transformed and put back on the market for sale by Stacy Hague at EXP Realty.

 Anchorage Alaska Best Homes

 

You can’t find huge contemporary mansions with swimming pools, multiple wings and expansive gardens in Alaska, like you would see in Los Angeles. Alaska’s got its own unique style in culture, activities, people. Why not, homes?!

Although most Alaskan homes were built between the 70s and 80s, the real estate market has been expanding in the last few years. Homeowners, flippers and especially builders have been slowly redefining styles in the traditional Alaskan homes. You may have seen some of them around town: Spinell Homes, Hultquist Homes, Hall Quality Homes, Visser Construction, and so many more. These builders have definitely helped pave the way Alaskans live with beautiful home features and design.

Home buyers now have more options…

All too often, realtors use jargon that the average person isn't familiar with. The term “CMA” is one of those terms you may have heard, but wasn’t sure what it meant. CMA stands for Comparable Market Analysis. This is how real estate agents determine the market value of your home before they get it on the market.

Real estate agents come up with these values through research of your home’s location, comparable properties and the market. Unlike most commercial properties, whose value is determined by income, residential properties take a different approach.

There is a difference between “tax assessed value” and “market value.” Tax assessed value is what you pay taxes on and, depending on where you live, can be above or below market value.…

When working with sellers, one of the things we advise is to get a home inspection done before getting the home on the market. Now, typically this is a cost that a buyer would incur during a home sale transaction, but there are several reasons why a seller would want to do this.

During a home inspection a licensed home inspector will meticulously check out the entire home from foundation to roof. They provide a report, typically next day, with complete recommended repair items with thorough pictures and descriptions. These reports are usually broken into three categories: health and life safety, significant repairs, and recommended repairs. By getting the home inspection before you get it on the market it allows home buyers to be at ease,…

Be Unreasonable with Your Investments

 

Too often, I see people who want to start investing in real estate too soon. Everybody knows that real estate is a great investment for many reasons, but many people don’t know how to do it properly. Because of this, I see people invest in many different types of deals at varying results. The masters in the investing game are unreasonable about their investments and you should be as well.

As an inexperienced investor, you will see a lot of potential deals that all may look like a great deal. However, before you start investing, you need to analyze many deals and create your own requirements for investing. Those requirements should include things like your desired rate of return, location, how long you intend to hold the deal, knowing and…
