What I love about Sanctuary is that we are a full service boutique. It's one stop shopping for any buyer or seller we work with. I was reading an article in Realtor Magazine titled, One Stop Shopping, and I was reminded about all the great benefits of our brokerage. Not only do we have a fantastic group of agents, but we have a great partnership with Chase, our lender, and Ganek, Wright, & Minsk, our closing attorney. They are both in house so if you ever need to talk with someone, you can get it all here at Sanctuary. Having just purchased a home, I know how often I had questions and how often I needed to speak with someone. Keith Spain, our lender, is here in house so you can always get in touch with him at our office or you can always call him. He does return your call and pretty quickly. As for Ganek, Wright, and Minsk, you can close on your home here at Sanctuary. They will come to us! We hold closings at the office because it's convenient and it makes our clients feel more comfortable. So, if you're looking for one stop shopping, we're what you're looking for.
So, let me tell you what the article said. It says making the process as convenient as possible for the home buyer is what is important. Closing with a brokerage that has all the services packaged together makes the transaction process quick, convenient, at less cost, and with fewer mistakes. Eighty percent of buyers say the biggest perceived benefit is the chance to save money and just over seventy percent say there's less of a chance of the whole deal falling apart. They have found out that home buyers who have used this one stop shopping concept have a higher rate of satisfaction. The problem is that seventy percent of buyers surveyed had not heard of this concept until this survey. Let's get the word out. We want our clients to be happier!
