Why use Venture One Realty?
Venture One Realty can better compete in a market dominated by giant national real estate companies. They do business with fancy office’s, catchy TV commercials, and expensive national advertising. We don’t need all that to give you the best service possible! Venture One Realty is a locally family owned business. This allows us to focus on our Buyer and local market and not have to deal with or pay fees to any corporate or national real estate giant.

What should I have to start the process of Buying a house?
You need to have the ability and intention to purchase and close on a house, have a Mortgage Pre-Approval and/or Proof of Funds letter, provide your specific criteria of the type of property you are looking for ( Area, Price Range, Style) and your availability for show times to see these properties. Don’t have all this yet? No problem! We are here to help.
How does Venture One Realty get paid?
When listing a house for sale on the MLS the Seller has already agreed to pay a commission to their listing real estate agent and to a Buyer’s agent. The portion Venture One Realty receives as the Buyers Agent commission from the Seller at closing is how we get paid.
Should I choose my Real Estate Broker based on cost?
Trust is the most important aspect of buying your home and you can’t put a cost on that. That being said, Venture One Realty doesn’t charge you, the buyer, anything! Other Brokers can charge retainer or showing fees.
Can I get a better deal as a Buyer if I don’t use an agent?
No. If a house is listed for sale on the MLS then the Seller has already agreed to pay a commission to their listing real estate agent regardless of whether or not the Buyer is being represented by an agent. You would still pay the same amount for the house.
What if I already have a Real Estate Agent? Can I use you also?
No, If you already have signed a buyers agreement with another agent or an already signed purchase agreement then you cannot also use Venture One Realty.
Can I go to an Open Houses by myself?
Yes! Open Houses are a great opportunity to see a property! You do not need us to go to an open house. You must however disclose at the open house that you are being represented by Venture One Realty.
How do I search for my perfect home?
You can search homes on the MLS direct thru our website! Venture One Realty will be happy to set-up Alerts when properties that you might be interested in hit the market. You can also use realtor.com, Zillow.com, and Trulia.com.
