Delivering extraordinary service to our clients is the foundation of our business. At JAM Real Estate Experts, we work as a team. There are over 180 individual tasks that go into selling your home. We have individuals on our team that specialize in each task – Client Care, Marketing, Listing Management, Sales, and Closing. We believe this sales process gives our clients the best experience.
Experience:
Our team has sold hundreds of properties in the last few years. Because of that we have more experience in the issues that are relevant today, like handling today’s Buyers, Inspectors, Lenders, and leveraging technology in our marketing. You can’t pick an agent because they’ve been in the business for thirty years, if in the last 30 years they have only sold 30 properties!

SERVICES
While most agents are Reactive to critical issues like Pricing, Negotiating, Physical Inspections, and Appraisal Inspections, JAM Real Estate Experts takes a Proactive approach to these critical issues, delivering results to our clients minimizing liability exposure.
1. Proactive Pricing
Most average agents are Reactive- they do a quick CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) and recommend a list price without considering all the factors. The risk of pricing your property too high or too low is that the listing can get stale or you can leave money on the table – either way, you lose. We are experts in strategic pricing for maximum return. We study every relevant comparable, talk with each agent who handled the listing to gain valuable insight on number of offers/price reception/etc., and physically tour the competing active/pending comps to ensure accurate pricing of our listing.
2. Proactive Negotiating
When we are in a multiple offer situation, we will screen each Buyer and interview the Buyer Agent, Lenders, and verify that they have no other offers out and are going to stay committed. Additionally, because our listings typically sell at the top of the market value range, we’ll set expectations up front that the Buyer will cover the difference in appraisal value and contract price, if any.
3. Proactive Physical Inspections
Once escrow is open, the Buyer will do a physical inspection of the property. ALL home inspections will reveal something wrong with a home – yes even yours! Most home Inspectors exaggerate repair issues, which can lead to higher than necessary repair costs or worse yet, a paranoid buyer who wants to cancel the escrow. For this reason, we will pay for a home inspection up front, address any repairs early on so we can have a committed Buyer. We have access to affordable and trustworthy contractors to save you time any money.
4. Proactive Appraisal Inspections
95% of our listings are sold to Buyers who are financing the purchase. It is to everyone’s benefit that the Appraiser is equipped with all the necessary information to make an accurate value assessment. For this reason, we will make a list of all the property’s improvements and its special features.
