\r\n\t\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t<\/i>\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t \r\n\tHey {first_name}, \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tThe other day one of my clients, Julie, asked me to show her a beautiful 2 bedroom condo<\/div>\r\n \r\n\tby the water. The master room was spacious enough to store her large shoe collection<\/div>\r\n \r\n\t(she's a designer, not a shopaholic lol). And the place looked beautiful enough to decide it'd<\/div>\r\n \r\n\tbe perfect for her and her teenage son. \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tOnly it wasn't. \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tI double-checked the listing, and sure it had a nice description \u2013 \u201cSpectacular views! The<\/div>\r\n \r\n\twaves are calling! A chance to live downtown!\u201d But the listing agent missed the mark on<\/div>\r\n \r\n\tone critical thing: The \u201csecond bedroom\u201d wasn't in fact a bedroom. It was a den. \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tSee technically and officially, a \u2018bedroom' contains 2 essential elements: \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tA window and a closet.<\/strong> \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tIt must. Have. Both.<\/u> \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tNow whether that agent knowingly mislead the public in her listing is up for debate. The<\/div>\r\n \r\n\tproblem is buyers like you rely on accurate listing info to justify a property's listing price; An<\/div>\r\n \r\n\textra bedroom in a home adds more value. \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tIn this case, it wasn't a \u201c2 bedroom.\u201d It was a \u201c1+1.\u201d \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tSo unless Julie's son (or anyone else for that matter) wanted to sleep in the study, I had to<\/div>\r\n \r\n\tcall and inform her that this condo just wasn't going to fly. \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tIf you have any questions about anything YOU see in a listing, please don't hesitate to drop<\/div>\r\n \r\n\tme a line \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tMeanwhile, I've been busy adding to the \u201cTop 3 Things You Need to Know Before Buying<\/div>\r\n \r\n\tYour New Home.\u201d \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tI'm excited to share with you more tips of the trade. Look out for that EXCLUSIVE email<\/div>\r\n \r\n\tcoming at you soon! \r\n\t <\/div>\r\n \r\n\tUntil then, \r\n\t \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n ![]() <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n \r\n <\/i> Georges<\/span> Al Halabi<\/span><\/strong> \r\n <\/i> Primary Residential Mortgage | NMLS# 3094<\/span><\/span> \r\n <\/i> Branch Manager | NMLS# 373780<\/span><\/span> \r\n <\/i> (305) 731-8865<\/span><\/span><\/span> \r\n <\/i> galhalabi@primeres.com<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> \r\n |
