Services
Below are the services that we offer Keller Williams agents. These services help agents leverage their time by handling all of the admin type items that get a home to the closing table. We order inspections, surveys and home warranties. We track the status of the transaction with the title company and lender and any other parties involved in the transaction.
It is important to us that everything runs as smoothly as possible and we close each transaction on time. To do this requires communication between all parties. Our hope is to be able to help leverage your time so you can be more successful in your real estate business.
