Why My Clients Love Working With Me...
Cody Kerr walked us through the sale of a prior rental in 2017. We knew from that experience that Cody would do a thorough market analysis, and assure us of measures needing to be taken to assure a timely and successful sale of the current property. He is upfront and honest, and we highly value the integrity with which he conducts his business.
An above asking price offer for this property was received the day following listing. Cody Kerr assisted with negotiating a counter offer presenting a more realistic appraisal value for the property, while also reducing a portion of the buyer’s cost the sellers were asked to assume. He also negotiated a back-up offer with another potential buyer which in the end was not needed. He is a young man committed to excellence, and it shows through his frequent updates to us throughout the sale process, and his follow-up gratitude after the sale.
In the current seller’s market there are those who attempt to sell their residences without a realtor. This was not a consideration for us as we have a westside broker as a great personal friend, who taught us well the benefits of having such an important transaction managed by a knowledgeable agent committed to knowing the area, it’s resources, and appraisal factors impacting market conditions. We believe our agent earned his commission by providing assistance prior to listing and throughout the sale process.
Cody Kerr helped me through the process of preparing my home for sale. After which we listed and closed with only minor changes requested by the buyer. Overall, the process was very smooth.
We had a “niche” property we were selling that Cody knew would take some time, but was still willing to take it on and help us until it sold. I was honestly a bit disappointed with the marketing photos, but never said anything until much later which was my fault for not stating so right off. When it got time for deals and negotiations, Cody was very on top of everything, making sure all was taken care of. He was very communicative and made sure to stay on top of things and keep us in the loop. We had one deal go awry, and he kept us informed of the situation and potential problems the entire time which was very appreciated, because there were no surprises. He works very hard for his clients and demonstrates professionalism with both the buyers and sellers. He also goes above and beyond, often working late hours to make sure he is there every step of the way, so if anything comes up he canfollow through to make sure any questions or problems that arise are handled. I was very appreciative of his support and help selling our property, and will definitely recommend him to others.
