Key West, FL – Key West REALTOR® Sean Farrer of Coldwell Banker/Schmitt Real Estate Co. is launching a brand new property search website that is designed to help buyers find the kinds of properties they are looking for 30% faster than other sites.

It does this by providing quick links directly to various Key West real estate types, such as single family homes, waterfront property, condos, foreclosures, short sales, and more.

Farrer, who specializes in Old Town Key West, Key West, Key Haven and Stock Island, and the Lower Keys, says that the new site, located at http://key-west-real-estate.net, has an advanced but easy to use search engine to fine tune property searches in great detail.

“We’re allowing buyers to search fields that used to only be accessible to agents through the MLS. Our philosophy is to provide our clients with as much information as possible to help them find the perfect property.”

He says he has a wide variety of clients ranging from British and Australian buyers to seasonal residents from colder climates who are excited about the new tools available to search for Key West homes.

“One of the best time-saving tools on the site is the property alert system to notify buyers when listings come on the market that match their criteria.”

He says that if you’re searching for Key West condos and a new listing hits the MLS, you’ll be notified by email so you’ll have a better chance at getting to properties before others even know they are on the market.

“We’re encouraging potential Key West home buyers to sign up for a free account so they can test drive the site and get notified of new listings.”

Portland, OR – Portland REALTOR® David Somerville has published a list of Tips For Buyers To Close Fast on Bank Owned Portland Real Estate. He says that while many agents don’t take the time to educate their clients, following a few simple guidelines leads to a much more satisfying buying experience.

In a market that sees a lot of Portland real estate transactions needlessly falling out of escrow, Somerville says that it is possible to not only close on time, but early, if a few simple steps are taken in advance.

“Number one on the list of ways to ensure a fast closing is to make an all cash offer. Of course, not everyone can do that, so I’ve put together some tips that many buyers will be able to take advantage of to expedite their closing.”

The tips include:

1. Make an all cash offer
2. Sell your current home before making an offer on another one
3. Get preapproved with a mortgage broker, not just prequalified
4. If possible, get your loan from the bank that is selling the property
5. Tighten inspection timelines to 3 business days instead of the standard 10
6. Have mortgage broker order appraisal 2 business days after offer acceptance
7. Have certified funds to escrow prior to signing closing documents
8. Don’t make any last minute credit purchases

Albuquerque, NM – With the explosion of social media, a Realtor’s job is never done, according to Joe Maez, a top producing real estate agent with Keller Williams Realty Westside.

According to Maez, who helps buyers and sellers with their Albuquerque real estate transactions, including adjacent communities such as Los Lunas, Corrales, and Rio Rancho, social media has simply created more avenues to connect with the public.

“It’s a business that’s very customer-centered, it’s always a good thing to connect and communicate with the public, so I embrace it.”

He says he knows of agents who run from the extra bit of social interaction, but he’s found that social media like Facebook and Twitter are simply tools to stay in touch and convey useful information.

“Whether I’m staying in touch with friends, family, and real estate watchers on Facebook, or Tweeting about Los Lunas real estate or Rio Rancho real estate, I look at the prevalence of social media as one of the best things that’s happened in real estate.”
