Andrew Berlinberg, Realtor, MBA
My clients have realized the following benefits based on their feedback
and answers to a formal questionnaire.
Finding the Right House & Neighborhood
I believe in taking as much time as needed to help my clients find as
close to their ideal house as possible:
- I pre-screened
32 houses as soon as they came on the market over
two months, saving Richard
H & Valerie G numerous
house-hunting trips to Portland.
- Over three months,
I pre-screened and showed numerous homes to Grant R & Nicole
W: “He
did not pressure us at all, and remained committed to helping us find
that perfect home.” The “right” home
came on the market the afternoon I was leaving town for the weekend,
and I arranged for an associate to help them in my absence, allowing
them to beat a competing offer.
Savings on Sale Price
- Julie and Bret S saved an additional $15,000 on the purchase of their home, after every contingency had already been removed. This is in addition to $19,000 negotiated off the asking price, a total savings of $34,000.
- Mike & Ingrid
W saved $10,000 on the $350,000
asking price of their home, the first day it was on the market, even
though there were two other offers to purchase it.
- Negotiated $50,000
off the $550,000
asking price of a home for Charles & Lisa W, even though
their offer was contingent on the sale of their current residence.
- Brian & Wendy
H saved $10,900 on the $325,900
asking price of their home, in July, 2005, the peak of the recent “Seller’s
market”.
Repairs Addressed
- Linda & Rich
M received a $3,800 credit, $2,800
more than the sellers’ initial
offer, based on estimates I obtained, to complete repairs the seller
was unwilling to make.
- Ron & Hettie R received a $3,000
credit from a seller selling his property “as
is”, based on my
recommendation to conduct a sewer inspection.
- Chris C and Carrie
A were spared the expense of decommissioning
an abandoned oil tank that the seller of their house was told
had been taken care of when he bought the property, after I had a company
search the yard for one.
On-going Help
I receive strong feedback from my clients for helping them with all aspects
of the transaction and beyond, including recommendations and coordination
on home renovations.
