You Can Request A Free Presentation On How We Will Market And Sell Your Home. Remember, All Realtors Are Not Alike!  Free In-Home Presentation Before signing a contract with any Realtor, make sure you know EXACTLY how your home will be marketed. There is a vast range in skills, experience, and track records! A "Listing Presentation" is an industry term for the formal presentation that a Realtor makes to prospective home sellers, trying to earn their trust and business. Don't list your home with a Realtor without it! The Rivers Team would love the opportunity to make such a presentation to you. Tracey Strube will visit your home, and together you and she will walk through it, considering the positives and negatives (if any!). You will then see exactly how we would propose to sell your home, for as much as the market will bear, and within your time frame. Tracey will tell you where The Rivers Team will advertise your home, both in print and on the web. With the dramatic growth in homebuyer usage of the web, you MUST have a Realtor that can extensively market your home online! And you'll find out what your home is worth, too, because part of our Presentation will include a CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) of your home. We'll compare your home to others like it that have recently sold, and also to others that are currently for sale. This is a very important way of determining the fair market value of your home. Tracey Strube makes Listings Presentations and prepares CMAs for prospective home sellers every day. She has literally done hundreds, and she knows exactly what puts a big SOLD sign in your front yard. Tracey would love the chance to make a Listing Presentation for you. It is totally free and without any obligation. Call Tracey for an immediate appointment! 800-286-1458 or local 850-297-2255. Or, fill out this form and we will contact you at your convenience...

Titles >Holding Title to A Condo
With condominiums becoming increasingly popular among today's homebuyers, it is a good time to clarify the terms of ownership that seem to confuse many people. Condo-type residences most commonly fall into two categories - condominiums and townhouses.
A condominium is usually a multi-story structure. Each owner-resident has a deed of ownership for his own unit and owns the space within the unit, but not the land under the structure. Therefore, condo units can be stacked vertically. Condo owners share title to the common areas of the development, including land, exterior of buildings, hallways, roofs and swimming pools -- all areas used by all occupants. Each owner pays property taxes on their unit. Also, a monthly fee is paid to the homeowners' association that is used for managing and maintaining all common areas.
A townhouse, or town home community is usually a series of single- or two-story housing units, each linked to each other horizontally by common walls. Each owner hold title to their unit and the land beneath it, thus these units cannot be stacked vertically. Typically, a townhouse unit will be a two-story residence, with the living area downstairs and bedrooms upstairs. Common areas belonging to the townhouse development are owned jointly. Each townhouse owner pays property taxes and association fees.
