  • How Veterans can still have 100% of their buyer's agent fees covered
    Jun 21 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    The 2024 national lawsuit against the real estate industry is resulting in the removal of a long standing benefit to our American Military Veterans. We find that appalling and discuss our immediate solution to this travesty in this episode. Professional representation has been available to all buyers for decades. It's been paid for by the listing brokerage and wrapped up in the cost of the home that a buyer was purchasing. That equates to the buyer actually paying for all of the commission in their mortgage or in cash when they bring the money to closing.

    Click here for more details on how Steve Martin Homes Group is tackling this issue head on.

  • Important Thoughts About Home Staging That Could Save You Money.
    Jan 7 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    In this first episode of 2024, Steve Martin & Katrina Smith discuss some pros and cons of home staging options.

    Real Estate professionals everywhere agree on the value of depersonalizing your property prior to listing it. Have you ever seen staged homes that obviously had the personality of the stager/decorator all over it? Can that actually be counter productive to the sale of your property?

    What if a potential buyer or your listing agent need to move some of the furniture to show the potential buyer other layout options? Will that "staging company" allow you to do that?

    These valuable insights and more are included in this episode of the Real Estate Agent Man podcast
