Thinking Homes? Think JONES! Are you looking to sell your home?  Maybe you've decided the time is right to buy?  Have you found your agent yet?   Globalization and the internet have made the world a smaller place. Back in the day, the big box companies were the only ones who could afford to provide agents with all of the systems to market your home effectively and to help find the right house out of the hundreds of listings out there.  Now, thanks to Internet Data Exchange (IDX) and other tools, all agents can access the right information and market your home in all the right places.  That has basically leveled the playing field and made most full-service companies equal.  However, agents are a different story.  It's important for you to choose a knowledgeable agent to guide you through the process; someone whose education did not stop at taking the basic real estate course and a state exam.  Equally important are marketing and organizational skills.  This person is going to be responsible for getting your property out there and/or meeting a multitude of deadlines, some of which are critical to the contract process.  You must be confident that (s)he can keep up and do an effective job, not only for you, but for multiple clients simultaneously.  It's a bonus if the person understands what you are going through and can empathize with your situation and stressors.  Finally, it's also true that you need someone you like and trust; an individual that you feel comfortable with.  Making a good choice can go a long way towards ensuring a smooth process from beginning to end. My commitment as your Triad REALTOR® is to provide the dedication, knowledge, and customer service that you deserve. In my continued quest to learn and grow in this busiess, I've received my e-Pro, ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative), GRI (Graduate Realtor Institute), and SFR (Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource) designations. Having relocated 19 times from city to city in my life, I am intimately familiar with the stresses and issues associated with moving. I've packed myself, used movers, had a relocation company, and driven the truck cross country.  I can truly feel your pain! If you are ready to buy or sell, I'd be honored to assist you in that process.  For more detailed information, give me a call (336-387-2338) or e-mail (Talisa@ThinkJones.com).
