There's More to Selling Your Home than a "For Sale" Sign In Your Front Yard: Beware.
 

Even if a simple sign in your yard did produce a buyer knocking on your door, how will you handle the following questions: 

"How does your home compare to others like it in Honolulu, Diamond Head, and Makiki?" 

"How did you determine the fair market value of this property?" 

"What about financing? Can you help?" 

"If I make an offer, who will draw up the paperwork?" 

"Why aren't you using a Realtor? Is there something wrong with the property?" 

"Since you aren't using a Realtor, we can take their fee right off the top, right?" 

Selling your home is one of the most important financial transactions you will make in your life. Don't take risks. Selling your home is nothing like selling a car. Every home is different, and every homebuyer wants to offer you as little as possible. How do you determine the real market value? 

Almost all homes are sold using a Realtor. As a top real estate professional, it is my job to help you negotiate with all those buyers who want something for nothing. Not to mention preparing your home for sale, marketing it locally in Honolulu, Diamond Head, and Makiki and even nationally, and guiding you through the complex paperwork and pitfalls of escrow and closing. Make sure you are really ready to handle all of that before pounding that sign into your front yard. Errors can be extremely costly. 

Remember: Buyers want to offer you as close to nothing as possible! While that "For Sale By Owner" sign might sound like a good idea, it usually means a different thing to buyers: "Try to steal this one." 

If you must sell your own home, at least let me give you a sense of its true market value. Tell me a bit about your home, and I'll do a quick Comparative Market Analysis and let you know what I feel it is worth. I'll also describe, as an experienced, top Honolulu, Diamond Head, and Makiki Realtor, how I would market your property. This is free, with no strings attached. Simply fill out the form and I will quickly get back to you...

Real Estate Tips
Buying Land and New Construction >Beware of Fat Clay

When building a home, you should have the soil on the construction site tested for plasticity to determine how it will change under different moisture conditions. This is important because some soil is so "plastic" that (if the condition is not corrected) it can actually break concrete floors, crack the walls and destroy the foundation of your home. Highly plastic soil is sometimes referred to as "fat clay" that swells excessively and loses stability when it becomes wet. Fine-grained soils that contain a high percentage of clay are greatly affected by water, turning to mud when it rains and undergoing large volume changes-sometimes up to 40 or 50 percent, as the soil dries. Not only do clays swell and lose stability when they become wet, but they also retard the drainage of water. If plastic soil is found on your building site, the ground must be over-excavated and replaced with clean gravel. Homebuilders often choose not to include a basement, or to protect the basement walls from excess moisture by surrounding them with a layer of gravel. A fine-grained clay-filled soil with a high plasticity index may require considerable treatment, especially if used in a moist location.

I have spent my entire professional life—the past 28 years—as a Realtor here on Oahu, where I was born and raised. I was educated at Punahou School, and thereafter earned a degree in Communications from the University of Southern California. In every one of the last 15 years I have ranked in the top 1% of all real estate agents on Oahu. During the past 15 years, I have consistently ranked in the top five agents in the entire firm, achieving the Top Producer in two of those years, and the 2nd or 3rd Top Producer in eight of those years. I enjoy an detailed knowledge of every neighborhood on Oahu, and a excellent working knowledge of the other Hawaiian Islands, as well. Having been with the same brokerage firm for all of these years, I am comfortable and experienced in virtually every kind of real estate transaction: whether it be an investment property or condominium, a lavish ocean front estate, or a modest family home. No transaction can be either too large or too small to command my full energy and attention. My C.C.I.M. designation, earned in 1994, puts me in a cadre of several thousand Realtors nationwide who specialize in commercial or investment real estate, 1031 Exchanges, and installment sales. My International President’s Elite designation at Coldwell Banker, earned for each of the past 6 years, puts me in the top 1% of all Coldwell Banker agents nationwide. I live on Tantalus mountain above Honolulu with my wife, Alice, and two children, Ginger and Jessica. My other interests include swimming, running, long board surfing, and Hawaiian music. I play steel and slack key guitar and have recorded with Taj Mahal and the Hula Blues Band. Whether you are a buyer or a seller, I can promise you the personal integrity, professional competence, and depth of knowledge that will earn your confidence.
