Your Support Team
A home purchase is a team effort. Bethany and Niel are your team builders and leaders. It’s our job to recommend people who have the skills and qualifications needed, based on the circumstances of the property you are purchasing. Review the Support Team page for specifics.
Finding Your Property
Your search is also a team effort with Bethany and Niel. We provide the searching tools such as a portal to the Alaska MLS. As your representatives, our perspective on properties you are considering comes from the many years that Bethany and Niel have lived and worked in the Alaska real estate markets.
Contracting Your Purchase
When the time comes to choose, we represent only you in almost all cases. (For the lone and rare exception, see Real Estate Law.) One of the most important tasks is to decide what is a fair offer. We work for you to research the market, so you are as informed as the seller – and sometimes even more informed –. We work in the “achievable zone”. That means that at the same time we are advocating in your best interest, we will play back to you the business traditions of the market and the current negotiating climate, to help ensure your success.
Closing Your Purchase
Putting a property under contract is only the beginning of a complex process that leads to closing. Your best interests are especially important during property inspections, negotiation of repairs, securing financing, and walking carefully through the closing process. Diligent attention to detail, and monitoring the activities of your support team is a most important part of our job in representing you.
