You Listened To Our Dream, Really Listened
"Deborah and I knew exactly what we wanted: a quiet neighborhood with access to the T, lots of sunlight, a deck, fireplace, enough room for all four of us, and good schools - you know, everything! - but after more than a year of casual looking, we weren't feeling very optimistic.
"But that was B. C.-Before Cohen. You listened to our dream, really listened. We well remember the day when you said, "There's a house I want you to see; I think you'll like it." Characteristically understated.
"From that point, you proceeded to guide us skillfully through the treacherous maze of offers and counter-offers, the P&S, financing, and closing. According to the tales we've heard since, it is not every seller and buyer that toast each other with champagne at the closing, and we attribute much of this feeling of goodwill to your way of managing a complex and difficult exchange."
David Eppstein

Investment Real Estate >Rental Property
When you own an investment property, one of your goals will be to get the highest monthly rental with the lowest vacancy rate. How can you accomplish this?
It pays to keep your property in good condition while you are trying to rent it, as well as after the new tenants move in. You obviously want the property to look its best when it is being shown. If you work to keep it that way, your tenants are more likely to feel motivated to stay in the home.
When something needs to be repaired, be sure the tenants know whom to call to get the job done. Arrange for periodic inspections of the property to check for leaking roofs or pipes, defective wiring or malfunctioning appliances. If you are an absentee landlord, it makes sense to hire property management professionals to keep a close eye on your investment for you.
