T
his is a very unique time in real estate right now in that
demand for homes is far exceeding the supply. This is
especially true in South Fayette Township since it was
recently named the top school district in southwestern
Pennsylvania for the third year in a row! If you have been
contemplating the sale of your home, or the purchase of a
new home in South Fayette, or the purchase of a new home in
South Fayette, now is the time for us to chat! I can be reached at
412-831-0100 x3013 (office), 412-874-0415 (cell), or via email at
dkruth@northwood.com.
Additionally, your transaction may be eligible for my
established commission giveback program in the South
Fayette community that funds a scholarship for a graduating
senior choosing to study science, technology or engineering
in college. Three such scholarships have been awarded since
2016 and this year’s recipeint was Michael Kugler who will be
studying mechanical engineering at
the University of Pittsburgh.
With over 12 years of experience
as a real estate sales executive, one
thing I can say with certainty that
I’ve learned is that every client—
whether buying a home, selling
a home or both—enters into the
adventure with their own form of motivation or pain they are
trying to cure. Likewise, each transaction is unique. To that end,
I began my career with the tagline “I specialize in assisting my
clients in finding the perfect homes to meet all of life’s changing
needs.” To expand upon this concept I created the following list
of motivational scenarios. Whether you are:
➢ single and ready to move out from under Mom and Dad’s
roof,
➢ newlyweds,
➢ a family that’s growing too fast for the space you’re
currently occupying,
➢ sending a child off to college who would prefer to live
in a space more homey than a dorm room and roomier
than a studio apartment (presents a great investment
opportunity!),
➢ empty nesters looking to downsize because your mobility
is limited or managing your existing home has become a
challenge,
➢ in need of more space to accommodate the need to care
for an ailing or elderly relative,
➢ relocating for personal or career reasons,
➢ needing to sell a parent’s estate,
➢ experiencing the unfortunate circumstances of going
through a divorce and need to sell the marital property
and find a new home that you are able to afford on your
own,
➢ interested in buying, fixing up and reselling, or
➢ interested in purchasing a vacation/retirement property
utilizing our relocation services.
Whatever your needs, rest assured I’m prepared to guide you
through the process.
I can honestly say that my client base does include people
who were motivated into taking action in all of the above
categories. I truly believe in educating my clients on the buying/
selling process and serve as their trusted adviser not only during
the transaction, but well beyond closing. They are grateful to
have an advocate looking out for their best interests in what is
typically the largest investment they will make in their lifetime.
To better assist my clients I hold two designations. I am
an Accredited Staging Professional (ASP). As an ASP, I have
the proven tools to assist sellers in getting the most money
for their homes in the shortest period of time. I provide this
service to all of my clients at no additional charge. (I have even
sold a staged home in one day!) My second designation as a
Seniors Real Estate Specialist affords me a great opportunity to
assist mature buyers and sellers with their very specific needs
relative to either downsizing, transitioning into an assisted
living facility or moving in with family members. I also recently
completed training in Interdisciplinary Collaborative Practice,
which is the fastest growing dispute resolution process, and
a good alternative to resorting to the courts. This training will
allow me to serve as a valuable team member alongside my
clients’ attorneys, financial advisers, health coaches and other
professionals to arrive at solutions that promote the long-term
bes t interests of those experiencing the difficulties associated
with going through a divorce. The process provides a way for
involved parties to restructure their family, resolve legal issues
and move on with their lives. I will also be obtaining my Broker’s
License this summer.
I am confident that I have the experience and all the tools to
assist you in finding the perfect home to meet all of your life’s
changing needs, so contact me today!
