Frozen

The winter months are beginning to set in. Although the weather has been surprisingly warm and welcome so as of lately, soon it will become too cold out for much real estate movement. This is a time when many home owners find themselves in a bind, unable to afford the properties they own and all the more unable to move them on a frozen market. To those unsure about the new few months, we want to be a loyal friend who can advise or provide opportunity. Don't be afraid to ask.

Board of Ethics nomination

We are proud and excited to announce that the Northern Kentucky Association of Realtors has recently requested that Chris Landers become a member of their Board of Ethics. The nomination to this board is such an exciting event because it is designed with the purpose of protecting the public and Realtors alike from unscrupulous business practices. For us here, it is a high honor to be asked to become so directly involved on such a grand scale with something which is so clearly linked to the heart of Sozo Realty. It also means a lot that outside sources can recognize that our first priority is good business and helping all parties involved in a transaction.

A New Way To Do Housing...

Helping people to not buy homes...

Yesterday consisted of helping a buyer not buy a home...

Confused yet?

Sometimes buyers are very polite and thoughtful, to their own detriment. They don't want to hurt an agents feelings or think they have wasted his time, and one can sense that this is the only reason they're still moving forward with the purchasing process. So I had to look them in the eyes and tell them how much this home will cost them in major improvements, and ask them whether they really want to take that on?
So they ended up opening up to me and we killed the deal in progress. I told them there are many more homes on the market to look at and now I am so excited about their refreshed sense of mind. I can't wait to see what home they will find to call their own. Its great to see people learning to ease up and find a comfortable way to go through such a big process.

This video gives an idea of what its like for a real estate agent to work with a bank owned home.

People are talking!


Here's what a recent client has to say...

"Chris just wanted to thank you again for everything. I should have listed with you when you knocked on my door!!!! The gift basket has been extremely useful, so many things in it that we just couldn't wait to use. Work on the house has been slow, still no shingles, but we do have WATER and HEAT/AIR. The pool liner is picked out and so are our bedrooms.
Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't you say you have a brag page somewhere so that I can brag on you for the whole world to see?"

Well, that last question is what we're trying to work on here. Its thoughts like the ones expressed here that really make this job worth doing.
Buying and selling a home doesn't have to be a daunting prospect anymore.

Here at Sozo, we are committed to helping people move on and move up in life. A new home is a fresh start, and we are here with the aim of making this transition one of comfort and ease.
The buying and selling process is one that usually leaves one feeling exhausted and handled by savvy technicians of the real estate market. That shouldn't be the case.
Our goals are geared around giving people the ability to expand their lives in a way which is comfortable for them. As you expand your horizons and look forward to new places, don't be intimidated by the searching process. We're here to serve and facilitate you as you grow. And we're excited for you.
