One of the things that I see the most often are couples who think they cannot afford to own a home while they’re paying close to $1,000 per month on rent. Rental rates are high and one of the things you may not know is that you are not only paying the mortgage for the owner but usually an additional $300 per month in addition to the mortgage.

When looking for a realtor many times people don’t know what they really need when it comes to qualification and service. First and foremost you want someone who is full-time.

There has been a lot said about airbnb and VRBO when it comes to city planning and zoning etc. But now with recent zoning Chattanooga has become one of the prime locations for building your investment properties as vacation rentals. In some areas a vacation rental can bring in twice as much as a common rental home. 

The main thing you want when selling a home is marketing experience. As you’ve probably noticed, most market has moved online. Your agent needs to be up-to-date and well versed in online marketing. The majority of buyers are using home apps and looking on social media to find the perfect home.

When listing a home, many people wonder how they can truly find the best person to sell their home. Is there really any difference? Is it all about how long they’ve been in the business? Is a larger well marketed team of agents better or worse?
