Using Old Tricks To Find A New Home in Today’s Market
Prudential New Jersey Property broker gives tips for home buyers and sellers


NEW PROVIDENCE, NJ (March 18, 2009) – Today’s world of booming technological resources has left some buyers and sellers tempted to overlook professional help and save money through “doing it yourself” techniques when it comes to real estate.

“In this economy, homeowners are reluctant to work with agents because they are looking to save money where they can,” explains Mike Del Duca, manager of Prudential New Jersey Properties’ New Providence office.

Del Duca – who has almost three decades of real estate experiences – has worked hundreds of former “For Sale By Owner” sellers and agent-less buyers in the central New Jersey area. As a broker-manager, he also provides support to the associates in the company’s Springfield Avenue location.

“Real estate professionals make themselves available to clients around-the-clock to ensure that all of their needs are met,” says Del Duca. “From setting up signs on lawns to sifting through legal jargon, agents make the process as stress-free as possible.”


Del Duca highlights five reasons for buyers and sellers to utilize real estate services:

• Knowledge and Familiarity: Real estate professional have years of education and experience, as well as large network for additional resources. They can sometimes connect buyers with homes that are not available on the multiple listing systems. In addition, agents are experts in their market areas and have the most up-to-date information on home values, taxes, utility costs and school systems. Sellers will also benefit from their marketing and advertising know-how and connections.

• Awareness: Agents know what to look for and can alert buyers and sellers to potential risks during the transaction process. Realtors can identify over- or under-priced properties and explain alternative financing strategies. For sellers, agents can give a home assessment, to determine what should be repaired, and provide a Comparative Marketing Analysis.

• Objectivity: Sales professionals are unbiased and can assist clients objectively evaluate offers or better negotiate contracts. Agents are trained in real estate jargon to assist clients navigate through an endless see of contingencies, release clauses, and obligations.

• Contacts: When questions arise that real estate agent can not answer, they can quickly connect their clients with an attorney, home inspector, engineer, surveyor, engineers or other licensed professionals.

• Management and Coordination: Not only do they have the education, real estate agents also have years of experience in managing transactions, including coordinating inspections, managing documentation and paperwork, monitoring deadlines, estimating costs and closing preparation. This allows buyers and sellers to maintain their normal schedules with minimal interruption.


“The home-buying process can be a much simpler transaction with the help of an experienced real estate associate to guide you in the right direction,” adds Del Duca.
