Don’t worry
Hi – you don’t know us – but do not be alarmed. We are not stalking you – we are stalking your house.

First we find you on the multiple listing services. Then we look up the address (thanks Google Maps!) and determine if it is in our accepted geographic range. This part is complicated and sometimes requires negotiation.

Then we do a drive-by. And then we park. Then we stare at your house. You’re confused – we’re trying to understand how the floor plans we’ve found of your house match up with the actual house from the outside.

Yes – we found your floor plan. And your deed. And possibly your mortgage. And any building permits you filed for – this is all public information. The Internet makes it much easier.

Then we drive around the neighborhood. We determine where the nearest bus or train stop is – we figure out where we can buy food. We look for a school or any other stuff that might later affect resale.

We look at the other houses – are we buying the cheapest house on the priciest street? Is this the most costly house on the cheapest street? Will we live next door to the Mansons?

We will be inside your house soon enough – but by that time, it is all academic. Seeing the inside is an emotional check. We’ve done the homework before hand, so we know if your house will be a candidate for what we lovingly refer to as The Weekly Bid.

But don’t worry – we’re just house hunters. We’re not dangerous.
