PROFESSIONAL PROFILE
Linda Granzow
https://www.1stchoicepropertiesinc.com/our-agents/linda-granzow/
A successful real estate business relationship requires understanding, trust, communication and a sound strategy.
Having moved from Michigan to the Carolina's in 1995, I have gained great insight into the Charlotte area, its communities and amenities. It is a great place to have raised a son and daughter and I love living here! My strong financial background as a CPA and corporate controller means I pay attention to intricate details and provide my clients with analysis of all critical information needed to make sound, informed decisions. In coordinating and supervising the renovation of two of the homes we have lived in, I have acquired reliable professional resources for mortgage financing, property inspections, remodeling, staging/design, and home repair experts. In addition, as a member of the SRES Council, I have an expert understanding of the unique lifestyle and financial needs of my 50+ aged clients. My goal is to provide you with the best professional real estate services when buying or selling your home.
My Approach:
Understanding
By listening carefully, with professionalism and confidentiality, I aim to understand the motivation and needs of my clients. This allows me to customize the best approach to meet their buying or selling goals. I use a team approach, executing that plan to achieve the desired results. I spend the time necessary to ensure my clients feel supported and heard throughout the engagement.
Trust
Whether it is strategic pricing, marketing, writing a contract, or negotiating on behalf of my clients, I strive to establish my clients’ trust and confidence. It is important that they know that I am dedicated to them and will work hard on their behalf to meet the challenges presented in each transaction with a positive attitude, integrity, and effective problem-solving—where there is a will, there is a way!
Communication
I take a proactive approach in reaching out to clients, agents and others involved in a real estate transaction, to ensure clear expectations and the best use of everyone’s time. Good communication is the key to getting valuable feedback and reducing unforeseen problems and unintended delays. I enjoy educating clients to become familiar with new real estate laws and practices, as well as how to evaluate the components of a good offer.
A Sound Strategy
It is very satisfying to see my clients reach their real estate goals with a minimal amount of worry and stress. It is the result of following 1) an organized process from start to finish, whether it’s preparing and presenting a home for market, or finding that perfect next home or investment opportunity, 2) a system that keeps the transaction on track from contract signing to closing, and 3) good old fashioned humor and resiliency when challenges are encountered.
One of my favorite quotes is “Good things come to those who wait, but great things come to those who don’t!” I am ready and would love to help you!
