DECIDE TO BUY
The Decision to purchase your first home is one of the biggest and best decisions you could ever make. After all, a home is the largest (and most emotional ) investment most people will ever make.
HIRE YOUR AGENT
When you’re looking for a real estate professional to help you, know that above all else, good agents put their clients first. This is your dream, and your agent is your advocate to help make your dream come true.
MAKE AN OFFER
Once you’ve found your dream home, the step is making a compelling offer. Your agent will re-search similar properties in the neighborhood to help you determine the market value, and fair price for your home. Look to your agent to guide you through the offer process.
PERFORM DUE DILIGENCE
Just because you love a particular property doesn't mean that its perfect. In fact, this is where rea-son has to trump emotion. You’ll need to have a property inspection (which we highly recommend you attend) that will expose any hidden issues.
CLOSE
Once you’ve made your offer and have completed the inspection process, you’re in the “home” stretch! But, in order to ensure that you don’t put your closing date, or your mortgage at risk, you have a few pre-closing responsibilities that you’ll need to be mindful of.
PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT
Congratulations, and welcome home! The home-buying process is complete, but just like any big process, there’s a maintenance plan!
SECURE FINANCING
Ultimately, your lender will pre-approve you for a certain amount, but YOU will decide what you’re com-fortable paying every month. Remember, your lender only sees your finances on paper. It’s up to you to decide how much you’re willing to stretch your budget in order to get into your dream home.
FIND YOUR HOME
So now you’re ready to begin your search, but where do you begin? There are a lot of homes out there and diving in without a guideline can become overwhelming & confusing. A great agent will help you more accurately pinpoint homes that fit your criteria.
Client Testimonials
OUR VALUE:
To be the real estate
COMPANY OF CHOICE
for agents and their customers.
“I met Courtney through a friend, while beginning a home search in late 2014. Upon contacting Courtney, she responded promptly and arranged a time for us to meet. She is personable, hard-working, understanding and knowledgeable. I never felt pressure from her to settle for a home I did not completely like and she was transparent about the home process and how her team would be able to advocate for me. Courtney was always able to present me with the newest homes on the
market that fit the criteria I had set with her. Even if she had prior meetings, she coordinated her team to work with me until she was available again. This always kept the home search moving forward. I cannot say enough about how happy I am with the home Courtney helped me find and appreciative of the many hours she dedicated to my search.”
“Courtney Dudek has worked with my husband and i for two houses now i would not go with a different realtor she has done so much for us. She has fought for us to get the process moved along I am very grateful for her help and support. I love the team and am super grateful for all they do for us. Thanks for everything.”
“Courtney is a great agent! Selling our home was very emotional for us and she walked us through every step! She started well in advance of the sale guiding us through the steps to make the process smooth. We were able to sell our home and buy our next home in the time frame we needed. Thank you, Courtney!!”
“Courtney Dudek worked to locate properties for me in a small radius, and she found the perfect one! She's got a terrific attitude and is always gracious with her
I recently had the pleasure of working with Colin Dombek and Courtney Dudek in purchasing my first home and they both did an awesome job! Being my first home purchase, I had a ton of questions and Colin made sure to get back to me with an answer for every single one. I would definitely recommend working with this team. Thank you!
“Courtney was actually recommended to us from a coworker who has known her for 20+ years, came
highly recommended and defiantly lived up to her reputation. We felt well taken care of, our housing needs were heard and she was very patient with us through our home search. Courtney was experienced, great to deal with and always got us a house viewing apt when we asked. She's an agent to trust and was a pleasure to deal with. She helped find our dream 1st home and we are extremely thankful for that. If you're looking for someone knowledgeable of the Rochester area, someone that cares about finding the right home for you, I highly recommend Courtney for your next home search.”

ARE LASTING IMPRESSIONS
EXTERIOR: The exterior of your
home often determines how buyers will view the interior, so:
>Check your curb appeal; a well-groomed lawn or walkway free of debris' goes a long way.
>Paint or replace your front door if it is faded or worn.
>Add some paint to shutters, trim and any oth-er outside features showing signs of water.
>Plant flowers or group flower pots together.
HINT: Yellow evokes a buying emotion.
Marigolds are inexpensive.
>Make sure your visitors can easily read your house number.
TO MAXIMIZE THE VALUE OF
YOUR HOME, WE RECOMMEND
THE THREE C’S OF STAGING:
FIRST IMPRESSIONS
Giving potential buyers a strong first impression matters. Staging your home is a proven way to make your home stand out!
•
•
•
•
•
•
INTERIOR: Buyers often see the surface condition of your home as a sign of what’s underneath, so:
>Get rid of clutter. Removing your
personal belongings will allow the buyer
to imagine this as their future home.
>Apply a fresh coat of paint, but keep the
colors neutral.
>Repair any faulty items like dim lamps or doors that do not open properly.
>Make sure your front entrance is clean and inviting.
>Keep windows and floors clean.
>Steam clean carpeting or replace is necessary.
>Repair loose knobs, sticking doors & windows, warped cabinet drawers and other flaws.
>Check and repair caulking in bathtubs and showers.
>Polish chrome faucets and mirrors.
>Dust furniture, ceiling fan blades and light fixtures.

AN EXPERT GUIDE.
Selling a home usually requires dozens of forms, reports, disclosures, and other tech-nical documents. A knowledgeable expert will help you prepare the best deal, and avoid delays or costly mistakes. Also, there’s a lot of jargon involved, so you want to work with a pro-fessional who can speak the language.
OBJECTIVE INFORMATION AND OPINIONS.
REALTORS® can provide local information
on utilities, zoning, schools, and more. They also have objective information about each property. REALTORs
® can use that data to
help you determine if the property has what you need.
PROPERTY MARKETING
POWER.
Property doesn’t sell due to advertising alone. A large share of real estate sales comes as the result of a practitioner’s contacts with previous clients, friends, and family. When a property is marketed by a REALTOR
®, you do not have to
allow strangers into your home. Your REAL-TOR
® will generally prescreen and accompany
qualified prospects through your property.
NEGOTIATION KNOWLEDGE.
There are many factors up for discussion in a deal. A REALTOR
® will look at every an-
gle from your perspective, including crafting a purchase agreement that allows you the flexibility you need to take that next step.
UP-TO-DATE EXPERIENCE.
Most people sell only a few homes in a lifetime, usually with quite a few years in between each sale. Even if you’ve done it before, laws and reg-ulations change. REALTORS
® handle hun-
dreds of transactions over the course of their ca-reer.
YOUR ROCK DURING EMOTION-AL MOMENTS.
A home is so much more than four walls and a roof. And for most people, property represents the biggest purchase they’ll ever make. Having a concerned, but objective, third party helps you stay focused on the issues most important to you.
ETHICAL TREATMENT.
Every REALTOR® must adhere to a strict code
of ethics, which is based on professionalism and protection of the public. As a REALTOR
®’s
client, you can expect honest and ethical treat-ment in all transaction-related matters.

As a home buyer you should know about seller concessions, also called seller contributions!
An agreement can be made between you and the seller where the seller pays for certain financing costs on your behalf at closing. In addition to benefiting buyers by helping to pay for closing costs, concessions can be a good way for sellers to sell their home faster.
• A seller’s property is listed at $210,000 and a buyer offers $203,700.
SELLER CONCESSIONS CAN PAY:
APPRAISAL FEES ATTORNEY’S FEES LOAN PROCESSING FEES TITLE INSURANCE
HOME SALE WITHOUT A SELLER CONCESSION:
WHEN A SELLER CONTRACT INCLUDES,
• A seller’s property is listed at $210,000 and a buyer offers this full amount with 3% seller concession.
• The seller nets $203,700 • ($210,000 minus $6,300 for seller concession). • The buyer purchases the home at $210,000 and receives the $6,300
toward closing costs by paying the full asking price.
Keller Williams agents strategically advertise in several
publications. Our display advertising appears in local,
regional and national / international publications, which
target specific audiences for unique or estate
properties. Your sales agent will select the publications
appropriate for the marketing of your property.
We want your home to be shown in the best
possible light to prospective buyers to get you top
dollar in the shortest amount of time.
We will create a warm and inviting environment
focusing on the best architectural features and selling
points of your home .

THE RIGHT PRICE MEANS A SUCCESSFUL SALE
Pricing your home is both an art and a science. Achiev-ing the optimal price is the result of both objective research into comparable properties and a gut feeling aboutyour
property and the current market.
> Your home will attract the most excitement from potential buyers and agents when it is new on the market.
PRICING YOUR HOME TO SELL
The right price
should:
> Attract Buyers.
> Help You Sell as Quickly as Possible
> Allow You to Receive the Best Offer(s) for Your Home
The simple fact is, price is the number one factor that helps home buyers determine which homes
they want to view. It’s important to remember that, although the price is set by you, the value of the
home is determined by the buyer.
FACTORS THAT AFFECT
YOUR ASKING PRICE:
> How quickly you need to sell.
> The amount of competition in your
price category and area.
> The availability, flexibility and afford
ability of financing.
> The sale prices of similar homes
sold in your area during the past six
months to one year.
PROBLEMS THAT CAN
ARISE FROM OVERPRICING:
> You might help sell similar homes
that are priced lower.
> Your home may stay on the market
longer.
> You could lose money as a result of
making extra mortgage payments
while incurring taxes, insurance and
unplanned maintenance costs.
> You may have to accept less money.
> A potential buyer may face appraisal
and financing problems as a result of
the inflated price.
FACTORS THAT SHOULD NOT AFFECT YOUR ASKING PRICE:
> The original cost of the property;
is determined by today’s market.
> Any investments you’ve made in improvements.
> The cost to build your home today.
> Emotional attachment.
> The opinions of friends and neighbors.
Holding an open house is serious business. Below is a
chart that shows you exactly how we can maximize
open houses to sell your property.
