Buyer's Guide

Whether you’ve owned a home before or you’re a first-timer preparing to start a new chapter in your life, buying a home is a momentous occasion that should be celebrated. However, it’s also a challenging process that can ignite a variety of emotions ranging from excitement to stress. The best way to handle the process without becoming overwhelmed is to be prepared and have the best possible real estate professional in your corner.

While David certainly has the experience to streamline the buying process, the real reason he makes such an excellent buyer’s agent is less about awards and statistics and more about his genuine desire to help his clients achieve their goals. Not only will David become a trusted advocate to you and your family, but he is also an excellent resource, advisor, partner, counselor, negotiator, and strategist.

A top-producing agent in the Triangle market for ten years (and in the past several years routinely in the top handful of individual agents in the Triangle), David arms his clients with the knowledge they need to make smart, educated decisions when faced with obstacles. David understands market dynamics and can help you realize the full potential of possibilities available to you when you’re considering making a real estate purchase or investment.

Don’t believe what you might read in the press. You can emerge victorious with a contract on a home -- you just need an agent that knows how to get you there. There’s more to an offer than price and these days there are at least half a dozen moving pieces in an offer that can be strategically implemented. Networking matters, David’s relationship with the agent on the other side, and who is backing your offer matters. Whereas ten years ago we tended to talk about this process in terms of “negotiation,” today the process is better described as strategic understanding and using every available advantage to achieve our goal.

The right combination of price, deposits, loan terms, contingencies, dates, and waivers can be the difference between winding up in the middle of the pack of ten to forty offers and holding the signed contract on the other side. While David works with buyers across the entire price spectrum, his personal pride and joy are his first-time home buyers. Sure, winning the multi-million dollar home for the savvy and experienced home buyer is exciting, but helping a first-timer learn the process, overcome doubts and emerge victorious is downright fulfilling.

It’s not just about finding the right set of bricks and sticks to call home — buying is about making an important life decision and one that often comes in tandem with other major life changes happening at the same time. David is here to help and to take away some of the anxiety and stress out of the process. You might even find the process fun.
