Why Stupid Real Estate Questions?
Hey, Jim Duncan with RealCentralVA.com and Nest Realty (archived: 2011) here. I’m thinking about stupid real estate questions.
Transcription:
As I tell my customers and clients, it’s not a stupid question in that you’re in a stupid mindset, but it’s a stupid question in that there are no such things as dumb questions, just the ones you don’t ask. A lot of what I do is complicated, it’s complex and it’s very intricate in details and it seems really simple to me because I do this everyday.
I live and breathe real estate. So that’s my thought process for this site, stupid real estate questions is I want to answer the questions that my clients have frequently, the ones that almost every single one of them asks, I want to be able to put in one place so that they can go and find these answers because a lot of them will ask:
– Should I get an attorney or a title company?
– Should I get a home inspection? (YES)
– Should I get a radon inspection?
– How should this happen?
And these are questions that happen every single day, so I want to help and educate and put them all in one place. So if you have a stupid real estate question, ask me. (434) 242-7140 — [email protected] or just RealCentralVA.com. So thank you very much and please let me know what questions you have.
