I am highly available! This is a service business, and you will often have questions after business hours or on the weekend. I mean, 2AM is problematical, but 9PM is not! Call me!

Century 21 Professional Realty is located at 86 Main St in Succasunna. 

We can negotiate it. It is usually 6 months. But I am flexible. On difficult or unique properties where the right buyer may take some time to find, I will need a 1 year listing. But 6 months is the usual period for the majority of properties.

You can of course withdraw your home from the market at any time. But our listing period will extend for what we contracted for. So you will not be able to list with another agent until the contract is expired. In some cases, an exception can be made. If you are really unhappy, we can come to an equitable agreement. In 30 years, I have never had a client pull the plug. I do everything possible to make sure you are satisfied and happy with my service.

As many as it takes. I usually agree to 6, but I will do more if you want them. The only stipulation is that you have the house ready on Sunday from 1-4PM and you depart for that time period.

See the commissions page on this website for my latest offers. 

If you list with me and plan to buy something else in northern NJ, I will reduce my commission.

Also, if your home is in one of my specialty neighborhoods, I will reduce my commission to 4.0%.

I will also reduce my commission in certain hardship situations. Call me and we can discuss it.

Morris County, and primarily Roxbury, Randolph, Mount Olive, Mount Arlington, Jefferson, and Denville.

My specialty neighborhoods are Poet's Peak, Hunter's Ridge, The Peaks, Willow Walk, Drakesville, The Meadows, Seasons Glen, Flanders Crossing and Berkshire Hills.

That all depends on your personal situation. To get top dollar, your home has to be clean, sound, and inviting. 

But if you are unwilling or unable to do a lot of preparation and are prepared to sacrifice some potential money in your sale price, then a home can be sold "as-is" with imperfections or even defects. 

Call me and I will come out and take a look. Often, if a home is just really, really clean, it can be attractive to most buyers.

Buyers will rarely consider buying a home with an underground oil tank. And their attorneys will advise them not to buy your home if it has an underground oil tank. Unfortunately, you will need to remove it prior to listing and replace it with an above ground oil tank, along with acquiring all necessary documentation from your local municipality.

After we get your home under contract, the buyer will nearly always do a home inspection. And that inspection will nearly always identify defects and problems that the buyer will want you to address. Our strategy is generally this: If you can see it before making your offer, we will generally not address it after the home inspoection. Hidden defects that could not have been factored into the offer are subject to renegotiation or coming to an agreement.

Example: The home inspector finds that the heating system is nearing the end of its economic life (20 years).

Our position: We stated in the seller's disclosure statement that the heating system was 15 years old and is in good working order. The house is warm and comfortable.

Therefore: We will choose not to address this complaint or objection. 

Example: The home inspectrion finds mold in the attic or a crawl space.

Our position: We will have to address it. The buyers could not have known about this and could not have factored it into their offer.

Therefore: We can issue a credit, repair the problem ourselves, or renegotiate the sale price.

These examples show the general strategy. Every situation is very individual and contextual. We might decide to repair something because the buyer has been very good about everything else. Or we might say "take it or leave it" to a different buyer who has been consistently difficult. 

It would also depend on your motivation and life situation. 

Call me to discuss this further. Many deals die because of home inspection issues. Ine strategy is to do your own pre-listing home inspection and short-circuit any issues before they come up. It might be $500 (avg) well-spent.
