Modern Edge Realty is a boutique real estate company in Fairfield County, Connecticut, distinguished by its unparalleled customer service. We are a full service brokerage firm working with buyers and sellers of both residential and commercial real estate. But we go beyond the ordinary, offering more services than most. And best of all, we can offer ALL for a low 3.75% seller's commission. Unlike discount brokers, this low commission includes ALL real estate brokerage services, such as adding your property to a Multiple Listing Service, installing a lockbox and a "For Sale" sign, professional photography and virtual tours, advertisement, web presence including realtor.com, open houses, offer negotiation, and much more. Buyers are also welcome. We offer full expert buyer representation services with no administrative fees.
Real estate is not only local, real estate is unique. Each property is singular. Each transaction has its own peculiarities. Each client has special needs. Real estate services shouldn't be bought off-the-shelf. Modern Edge Realty is the equivalent of shopping at a small boutique on 5th Ave. in Manhattan, instead of going to a large and impersonal department store.
With multiple listing services, companies have access to mostly the same properties for sale. All companies have experienced agents with expertise of the local market. So what distinguishes one company from another? Customer service. Access to a listing means nothing if an agent can't show it to you on your schedule. Expertise means nothing if an agent won't spend the time providing you with the detailed information you need. Quality service means nothing when an agent won't return your calls or emails for days.
We are not in business to simply sell property. We are in business to help you achieve your real estate goals. And we can do it better. And we can do it for less.
A foreclosure can be a very profitable way of buying real estate. Banks typically price their properties aggressively for a quick sale, and they often receive multiple offers. Time can be of the assence. Also, buyers should keep in mind there are risks involved. For this reason, buyers should work with an expert foreclosure buyer's agent.
A short-sale can be an opportunity for buyers looking for a good deal. Due to the recent changes in the real estate market, some home owners have become unable to pay their mortgage, which forces them to sell their home. However, home prices have fallen. This resulted in some of these home owners having a mortgage balance that is higher than what their real estate property is worth. If the home owner sells the real estate property for a fair market value, they would not be able to pay their mortgage company the full amount owed. They then negotiate a short-sale. This is when the bank is willing to accept less than what is owed in order to avoid an expensive and lengthy foreclosure process.
