Lex is the best real estate agent that I have ever met.He is very professional, patient and responsible, and he's done a great effort to assist us buying new home and solving all problems. About two months ago, my family was in a transition period,our problem was that we just sold the house, and eager to buy a new house. But we felt it is difficult to buy a house as it was so-called seller's market, we often heard of things like buyers have to raise much more over asking price in order to make a deal.
By chance, we met Lex, he started to help us with listings of our interested areas and acceptable price range and patiently make appointments for us. even when the seller didn't want to provide us a individual showing, he kept trying for us . He detailedly analyzed and explained the advantages and disadvantages of each house, and no matter how late he would answer the phone when we have questions and new ideas. During the whole process , Lex never gave us pressure to make a decision , unlike some other realtors who push clients for a quick deal.
Eventually with his professional negotiating skills, we purchased a house below asking price , which is surprising because it's a brand new home in Riverdale Richmond . We are very satisfied with the deal ,elegant design ,large lot and perfect price .
During pre- and walk-through days,Lex accompanied us to the house,tag and write down all problems and minor damages which he require the builder to fix.Now, one month after the possession day, Lex is still helping us to follow up when we find new problem. Also, he is always there for our benefits ,such as with regard to warranty, he suggested us that the home inspection is not necessary for brand new house, we should do it 1-2months before each warranty period expires. so we can save money and actually find real problems,then we get warranty, this is how home inspection and warranty work. I really appreciate the way Lex work and he is definitely different from other realtors . I'd strongly recommend Lex as a reliable realtor for your real estate sale and purchase.
Lex是我遇过最棒的Realtor。他很专业、非常有耐心而且负责任,在我们购房的过程中给予极大的帮助。大概2个月前,我们家当时正处在一个过渡期,我们的问题是:旧房子成交了,急于要买新房子。可这时正是所谓的卖家市场,房子很难买,Richmond房价飙升,经常听人说要加价抢offer的事情。机缘巧合,通过Zolo我们找了Lex,他整理所有我们感兴趣的区域和能接受的价位的房子,逐个帮我们预约,即使当卖家不愿意单独给我们showing,他也极力为我们争取。他耐心地分析每个房子的优势和不足,而且无论多晚都会接听我们电话。直到我们选中了合适的房子下了offer,lex以他专业的谈判技巧与卖家沟通周旋,努力地帮我们争取利益,也令我们在考虑的期间毫无压力。Lex不愧是持牌的谈判专家。最终以低于叫价把房子拿下,这很不容易,尤其我们买的是新房子。可以说无论是价钱还是各方面,我们都很满意。更难得的是,Lex服务周到,并没有因为买卖的完成而停止,我觉得这也是Lex与其他经纪最大的不同,有的经纪一交易完就态度没那么热情了。在交房之前我们有2次walk-through机会,他陪同我们把房子里里外外的瑕疵都记录下并要求卖方修补,直到今天交房已经1个月了,lex仍然在帮我们follow-up。 并且,他时刻都考虑着我们利益,帮我们省钱 ,比如关于warranty,他建议我们新房子不用请验房师,应该等到warranty 期满之前验房,这样既省了钱,也可以真正验出房子的问题从而去保修,这才体现出验房和保修的意义。这绝对不是每一个realtor都能做到的。买卖房子是一件重大的事情,选择Lex这样的可靠的地产经纪,是绝对不会错的。 read more
