Since 1910, the San Antonio Board of REALTORS® has been connecting home buyers to REALTORS® who have the expertise to navigate the complicated home or property buying process while adhering to a strict code of ethics making the buyer first in the transaction. This process can be an emotional undertaking and for most people, a home is the largest purchase they’ll ever make. Having a concerned and objective REALTOR® helps you stay focused on both the emotional and financial issues important to you.

San Antonio is a beautiful, sprawling city, covering over 400 square miles and made up of 1.3 million people. The local housing market continues to boom, remaining steady and strong each year and offering an impressive inventory that has something for everyone. With so many choices, you may be wondering where to even start. Finding the right neighborhood for you is more than just dollars and cents. It’s about finding the place that makes you feel at home. Besides the house, you’ll also want to find the neighborhood with the amenities you care about such as restaurants, parks, gyms, grocery stores and community centers. If you’re new to the area, your REALTOR® can connect you with the information you need to find what is important for you.

Your REALTOR® can assist you in obtaining local community information on utilities, zoning, schools and more. They’ll also be able to provide objective information about each property. With their knowledge of the local neighborhoods, let them know your preferences and they will do the legwork to guide you to a home that meets your needs.

A REALTOR® is also skilled in the many steps necessary of the home buying transaction. A particularly tricky step in the process requires negotiations involving price, financing, terms, date of possession, and inclusion or exclusion of repairs, furnishings, or equipment. Your REALTOR® can advise you as to which investigations and inspections are recommended or required before you are bound to complete the purchase.

A REALTOR® can be invaluable with their experience and knowledge of the real estate industry. Buying or selling a home usually requires disclosure forms, inspection reports, mortgage documents, insurance policies, deeds, and multi-page settlement statements. A REALTOR® speaks the language and can assist you in completing the necessary paperwork while answering questions and providing insight to the transaction. Your REALTOR® will play a key role in getting you the best price and helping you close the deal on your new home.

Every REALTOR® makes a commitment to adhere to a strict Code of Ethics, which is based on professionalism and protection of the public. As a customer of a REALTOR®, you can expect honest and ethical treatment in all transaction-related matters. Additionally, your REALTOR® is also committed to following the latest trends and legislative issues in an effort to protect the value of home ownership.

Let a REALTOR® guide you through the process, helping you prepare the best deal and avoid delays or costly mistakes. To begin searching for a REALTOR® and your dream home, visit SABOR.com.

Press Release
Buying a new home is one of the biggest purchases you’ll ever make, and finding the right person to assist you is important. The best place to begin is by ensuring you are working with a REALTOR®.

A REALTOR® differs from a real estate agent because a REALTOR® has chosen to be a member of the National Association of REALTORS® and subscribe to its strict code of ethics. This means that every REALTOR® must adhere to a high ethical standard, which is based on professionalism and protection of the public. As a REALTOR®’s client, you can expect honest and ethical treatment in all transaction-related matters.

Because a REALTOR® has taken this extra step toward professionalism, they are committed to being that expert guide you need, when it comes to buying or selling a property. Also, selling a home usually requires dozens of forms, reports, disclosures and other technical documents. A knowledgeable expert will help you prepare the best deal, and avoid delays or costly mistakes. Enlisting the help of a REALTOR® who knows your neighborhood and the local market can also help you price your home accordingly. And, there’s a lot of jargon involved, so you want to work with a professional who can speak the language.

A REALTOR® is also essential because of the objectivity they lend to the home buying process. A home is so much more than four walls and a roof and, for most people, probably represents the biggest purchase they’ll ever make. Having a concerned, but objective, third party helps you stay focused on both the emotional and financial issues most important to you.

Not only does a REALTOR® provide this objectivity, but they can also provide critical insights and opinions based on their expertise. For example, REALTORS® can provide local community information on utilities, zoning, schools, and more.

For Sellers
When you’re selling a property, marketing is key but property doesn’t sell due to advertising alone. A large share of real estate sales comes as the result of a REALTOR®’s contacts with previous clients, friends and family. Since REALTORS® must adhere to the Code of Ethics, any advertising they do will use consistent, unbiased language and cover a broad, all-inclusive range of markets. In addition, when a property is marketed by a REALTOR®, you do not have to allow strangers into your home. Your REALTOR® will generally prescreen and accompany qualified prospects through your property.

Real estate transactions also involve a fair amount of negotiation. For most people, they only buy and sell a few times in their lives, but REALTORS® handle hundreds of transactions, over their careers. A REALTOR® will look at every angle from your perspective, including crafting a purchase agreement that allows the flexibility you need to take that next step. Remember, there are many factors up for discussion in a deal and your REALTOR® will help you determine what to prioritize.
