We, the Santa Rosa realtor agency, acting as an intermediary, represent either the buyer or the seller when the ownership of real estate is being transferred, and this relationship is clearly defined by law. Very often, we will also provide our clients with a range of related services, such as referrals to a home insurer or mortgage broker.

We may also act as a buyer-broker and assist an interested party in purchasing a property or become the listing agent and work with the seller in marketing a piece of real estate. When we act in this capacity, we assist our clients in purchasing the home they want and need, based on the buyer’s parameters related to the price, size, and location of a home. As a real estate broker in Santa Rosa, we also:
● schedule appoint with the sellers’ agents or the sellers themselves for viewing various properties,
● assist the buyer in preparing an offer, and
● play a key role in negotiating the final purchase price.
In addition, we often provides reassurance for our clients during the stressful time when they are waiting to see if the offer they have made to the seller has been accepted or rejected.
Santa Rosa realtors work with the seller
When we are working with the seller, we will assist our client in preparing the property for viewing by prospective buyers, create fliers to advertise the home, and take photos of it as well. We will also list the property with a Multiple Listing Service, online, and in print. Then, we will place a “for sale” sign on the lawn, and at times, schedule an “open house” in order for many interested parties to tour the home at the same time. (If necessary, we will also accompany individual potential buyers to view the property.) We first present offers to our clients and then assist in negotiating a final selling price with the buyer, and we also guide sellers in reconsidering the sale price if the property is not sold within a reasonable length of time.
