| Q: | Are
all real estate agents the same? |
| A: | No.
Once you get beyond the advertising hype, it boils down to the individual who
will be representing you in buying or selling your property. What’s the person’s
track record? What will he or she really do to actively market the property or
find you a new home? How often will he or she keep you apprised of ongoing progress?
How much can they help you with financing? These are important questions to
ask of any real estate agent. The more they can do for you, the better. And that’s
the Coolidge difference. |

| Q: | Why
is it important that Coolidge agents know so much about financing?
|
| A:
| Coolidge agents recognize that financing is an integral
and critical part of the entire real estate transaction — other companies tend
to emphasize only price. Because we know financing, we can help structure the
best package and recommend financing sources to help smoothly close the sale.

| Q: | Why
should I use an independent real estate company? |
| A: | If
you’re looking for the personal touch in buying or selling a home, Coolidge Realty
offers you the best in-depth, customized, hands-on approach for buying
or selling a home. In addition, Coolidge Realty will show you all available properties.
While some real estate agencies may limit your choices, it is our goal to help
you select from all the homes available in Tampa, West Central Florida,
the state of Florida or even out of state! When it comes to selling your home,
we'll implement an aggressive marketing program to sell your existing home with
maximum results. Most large companies emphasize selling you only their
properties for sale, which can limit your choices. |

| Q: | Why else
should I choose Coolidge Realty? |
| A: | Glad
you asked! Here are just a few of the many reasons why you should choose Coolidge: |
| |
 | For most
people, buying or selling a home can be an overwhelming life event. |
| | |
| | Your Coolidge
agent knows this, and will take you step-by-step through the
entire process so you’re comfortable. We’ll communicate with you honestly,
openly and often. | | |
| We understand
the emotional and financial concerns involved in relocating.
| | | |
| | As a result,
we focus first on finding a neighborhood that’s "comfortable" for you and your
family. Then we find you a home within that neighborhood. Most other companies
emphasize selling you a house, not a home. There’s a difference. |
| | |
| Our goal
is to help you buy or sell properties, not just obtain listings. |
| | |
| | And because
you want results, we’re motivated to do the legwork to help you close the deal. |
| |
| We know
Florida, especially the Tampa Bay area, including Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco,
and Polk counties. |
| |
| | So, if you need
insights on schools, shopping, neighborhoods, etc., we can zero in on what you’re
looking for. | | |
| There
are no hidden fees, ever, with Coolidge Realty. |
| |
| | We provide full
disclosure of all of our fixed costs, along with professional and accurate estimates
of any variable cost of sale or purchase. | | |
| Enjoy
cash rebates through our exclusive CRI Awards program. |

|
| Q: | You
say that Coolidge has Buyer’s Agents.
What is so special about how you present and negotiate an offer on my behalf?
|
| A: | Once
a property has been selected, we conduct a complete Tax Roll Analysis and CMA
(Comparable Market Analysis) to determine the fair market value of that property.
From this information, we can help develop the best viable offer. Before an
offer is written, however, your lender is right with us, so that you are protected
financially and contractually. Our contract-to-purchase document is more comprehensive
than those of larger real estate brokers. We make sure you, our customer, are
protected in all aspects of the real estate transaction |

24 hours a day, 7 days a week for worry-free upkeep. |
