Advocating For Clients
Working with Buyers
Jim follows the housing market daily for his clients. His depth of experience allows him to anticipate and address the challenges of home buying: determining home values, negotiating buyer centered offers, negotiating after the inspection, and guiding the buyer through the steps of the ‘closing process’. He works in the best interests of his clients. Buyer Services: property searches; price analysis; writing purchase and sale agreements; negotiations; resource for arranging inspections, recommending lenders and title companies; guiding buyers through the tasks and timeline of the closing process.
Working with Sellers
“There’s more to selling a home than posting a sign.” That’s so true. Jim gives sellers marketing information and strategies for effective home pricing and provides guidance in how to prepare a home for sale as well as staging a home for sale. His weekly market reviews to sellers provide them with information to keep their property listing competitive. Through experience he knows sellers want buyers to know all the care and money they have put into a property. With that in mind, Jim makes it a point as a listing agent to know the ‘whole house’ he is selling, the many large and small details of a home. The more a buyer knows about a home, the greater sense of value and willingness to offer a higher price.
Keeping the seller informed is priority one, whether good news, bad news, or no news!
Jim Giuca, Realtor, SRES
Jim Giuca is a New Hampshire Lakes Region property specialist. He works as an agent for buyers and as a listing agent for sellers. There are two elements to his success: knowing the market and home values and keeping his clients informed about the process and challenges of buying or selling a home. Communication is key. For instance, most buyers and sellers don’t realize there can be two negotiations during the sale of a home; once during the offer period and then again after the inspection. How those are handled by the agent can make a big difference in the bottom line for buyers and sellers.
“I have to say that our experience in dealing with Jim during our search for the perfect lake house was nothing less than amazing. His quiet and unassuming style meshed well with our personalities, and after showing us a very few properties, he honed in on our requirements and showed us the house we eventually purchased. His assistance in the negotiations and his knack of timely communications was most appreciated. I feel he went out of his way to assist us in every way possible and helped us integrate into the community smoothly. I would highly recommend him.”
