REALTY VIEWS
"I don't even want to b there
when you show our house for sale,"
remarked a mild-mannered, middle-
aged lady. "Our
iti5t0s3 house means a lot
I 9 timentaf value.
I a and t wouldn't
i jSm- 4flS& I want to hear peo
ple finding fault
with it and pick
ing it to pieces."
That'. .
T derslandable posi
- tion for an owner.
Fred Chti peopIe do get at.
tached to houses and regard them
with fond affection. Which is good!
But it illustrates the need for a com
petent real estate broker. Since an
owner has only one property to sell
he is often biased In his opinion of it.
He probably does not know the latest
selling prices on homes in afl sections
of Medford. He may regard his house
as a friend and hate to hear it criti
cised. Or he may exaggerate its ad
aptability for another family.
But the real estate broker usually
has a broader view. He is familiar with
current prices and with many proper
ties. The comments of a buyer are not
resented. It gives him an opportunity
to point out how the faults may be
overcome or to find another property
more adaptable to the buyer's require
ments. We are specialists not In selling
houses but In HELPING people BUY
the kind of home which best matches
their needs and pocketbooks.
That's it in a nutshell! Let us help
YOU to find a suitable home which
you can afford.
ALWAYS DEAL THROUGH A
REALTOR.
