Are you searching for a Georgia Real Estate Agent and you're getting confused by all the different titles they have for us?

If you are needing to sell ANY real estate in GA whether it be a home, business, commercial, condo, townhouse or rental property, then you need a Georgia Listing Agent AKA Listing Broker AKA Seller's Agent or Broker.

How To Sell Your House In Georgia

Let Me List Your Home For Sale

I want you to allow me to list your home for sale. This article will give you information on why you should choose me as your listing agent to help you sell your home.
I will begin with a thorough CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) to find out what the homes in your area have recently sold for. That is the most accurate method to determine what your listing price should be. You can check the home values that are listed on the popular sites like Zillow, Trulia, Realtor.com, Homes.com, Yahoo Real Estate and so on, but those values are sometimes inaccurate and not a true indicator of your homes market value. A local Real Estate Agent or appraiser will be your best source to get your home's estimated value from.
My efforts to market your home for sale will be a great benefit to you, as opposed to you trying to sell your home on your own or choosing another source to list it for sale. I thrive on challenges, so I will put more time and effort into accomplishing the sale of your house. I will do things that you (if you're considering trying to sell your home on your own) or some other sources wouldn't want to do.
It will be a great advantage for you to have your home listed for sale in our local mls databases (FMLS & GAMLS). The agents that have pre-qualified home buyers utilize those databases as their main source to find homes to show to their clients. So your FSBO house won't have the main source that agents use to find houses for sale in your local area.
You don't want to spend as much money as I will to efficiently and effectively market, promote and advertise your home for sale. I pay for exposure and/or home buyer leads from Zillow.com, Homes.com, Trulia, Realtor.com, Active Rain, Movoto, Yahoo Real Estate, Homegain, Front Door, MSN Real Estate, AOL Real Estate, HomeFinder, Realbird, Yellowpages.com, Postlets, Point2Agent, Realtown and more. All of my listings are automatically syndicated to those sites mentioned and 1000's of additional websites when I enter them in our listing database, as well as a craigslist posting and an automated youtube video made of your property for sale in Georgia. I use all of the Google SEO products and CPC advertising. I have thousands of friends on Facebook  and over 1100 followers on Twitter.  The very same way that you found my website, your future homebuyer will find your home for sale on my real estate website.
Your home will have dynamic photos, single property websites, amazing virtual tours, breathtaking print & mobile advertising as well as scheduled open houses.
You will get tips to improve your home (if necessary) from me that won't break the bank. I'll relay the buyer feedback to you so you will know what they like and don't like about your home.
And after you've read all this call/text me (404) 503-6562 or email priscillahammond@live.com to schedule an appointment with me so we can get started on selling your home.

How To Find A Rental Home In Cobb County Georgia

To begin your search for a new rental home you should be well prepared at least 30 days before you plan to move. If you're a Section 8 recipient you'll need to be prepared sooner because the process takes approximately 60 days with the Cobb County Housing authority.

You will need to furnish the last 2 months of check stubs totalling at least 2.5-3 times the rent amount. For example if you're looking at Marietta Georgia rentals in the $1000 price range then the total monthly income for all adult occupants in the home should total (1000x2.5)=$2500 or higher. This does vary from time to time, it depends on the landlord.

Your credit, income and rental history will be verified. Some landlords are lenient on tenants with bad credit. You will have to pay for a credit check and sometimes for a background check as well.

You will need to have your move in amount saved up. For a $1000 rental home in Cobb County Georgia you will need $1000 for 1st months rent & $1000 for security deposit = $2000 total. Some landlords are lenient with the deposit, but it's rare and it will be easier for you to get approved if you have it all up front.

There is a very nice 3BR 3BA house for rent in Marietta GA on Perch Overlook it rents for $1200 a month with $1200 security deposit and they allow pets with a $400 pet deposit.

In Kennesaw a rental home on Park Forest Way is a lovely ranch home for rent 3BR 2BA $1150 a month $1150 security deposit and a $300 pet deposit.

A great home for rent in Austell GA on Cochran is a spacious 3BR 2BA for $1100 with $1100 security deposit, pets considered on a case by case basis with $300 deposit.

In Acworth GA a great home for sale or rent on Rivers Run a 3BR 2BA with a private fenced in back yard for $1100 a month, it's also available for sale or lease purchase.

In Powder Springs Georgia an exquisite newer rental home (built in 2006) 4BR 2 1/2BA with a private back yard for $1100 a month with $1100 security deposit.

A super home for rent in Marietta Georgia 3BR 2BA for $999 a month $999 security deposit on Clare Cottage with a fenced back yard and garden area. $300 pet deposit.

I welcome all tenants and landlords to contact me for help with finding a rental home in Cobb County Georgia or finding a tenant for your rental home in the Greater Atlanta Georgia area!
