Buying

With interest rates low, many renters are starting to get off the fence and think about purchasing their own piece of the pie. While simple rental cost vs. mortgage cost comparisons can be very attractive, buying a property is a serious commitment, and there are factors to consider:

I don't need a down payment?  To determine how much you can afford, talk to a local lender or I can refer you to one.  A local lender is aware of local tax rates and concerns that may arise before you do. Your local bank is another great option. Be prepared to spill the beans.  They will gather a lot of personal information about you, but the more upfront you are, the smoother things will go.

Let me PROTECT you. When preparing your offer, we will go over several terms like Due Diligence Money, Earnest Money, Due Diligence Period and Settlement versus Closing. In most cases, it costs the buyer NOTHING to use my services. I am here to walk through the entire process from start to finished.  Considering buying LAND and building a home? Commercial Investing or Selling? I can help with that!

Selling

Selling your Residential or Commercial property is an involved process that affects your future.  Before you begin this process, you'll want to ensure that you have the most up-to-date information on the North Carolina, Johnston County, Wake County or Harnett County real estate market based on the Market Absorption Rate or Cap Rate.  When should you sell your property?  How do you get the best price in Johnston, Wake or Harnett County? What kinds of renovations should be made prior to the sale?  Should you consider staging?  Should you do a pre-inspection?  What sells a property? How many showings is my area getting?  When you're armed with the right information, and an experienced real estate professional, you'll be closer to reaching your goal - selling your home fast, and for the best price.

When choosing Tracy Riba to represent you as your REALTOR®, you get the truth about the market.  And I promise that you will receive communication via phone, text and emails about the regular feedback on your property.  When choosing me as your agent, your property will show on more real estate websites than you have time to view.
