"On the market 6 days and it got sold".
Dear Tom, This is a letter relating my experience with another realtor and with you. I began with another realtor and was frustrated. He was disorganized and unprofessional. I had to remind him of things and he had the house on the market quite a while with no results. He never seemed to be sure about the right amount to charge for the house. I saw Tom' s brochure after about 3 months struggling with my other realtor. Tom had sent it knowing it was time for me to begin with a new realtor. I liked the brochure showing a husband and wife team and the slogan "stop dreaming, start packing." Tom was so professional and we had an instant rapport and it was great working with him. I just enjoyed him personally, so it was pleasant. The house was on the market 6 days and it got sold with Tom! I guess that speaks for itself. Thanks again Tom and Cheryl! Sincerely, Marie U

Real Estate Contracts >Signed Sealed and Delivered
Most people assume that when a real estate deed is signed, it is effective. However, there is one more essential part of the process. Even if a deed is properly executed, it is not effective until it has been delivered to and accepted by the buyer. This can sometimes create bizarre results. Here is an example.
An elderly man properly signed, sealed and acknowledged a deed to his nephew and placed it in an old tin box in his room, where it was discovered shortly after he died. The nephew lost a contest with other heirs over the property because the deed was not delivered, and therefore, was not effective at the time of the old man's death.
Until the deed is delivered, the title remains with the seller, who could change his mind at any time and destroy the deed. But once the deed has been properly delivered and accepted, the title passes and cannot be revoked. Thus the old, old saying: signed, sealed (and notarized) -- and delivered.
