#AskAnAgent Wrap-Up

On our “#AskAnAgent” Instagram Live series, radio personality and Windermere client Carla Marie goes live with our agents, answering viewer questions about how to buy and sell a home.

After our first three episodes with Jessica James, Ashley Abolafia, and Gervon Simon, Carla Marie sat down with the following agents to round out the #AskAnAgent conversations for 2020.

Episode 4: Jen Bowman – Watch it here

The second half of our #AskAnAgent series began with an informative conversation between Carla Marie and Jen Bowman, a Windermere agent based in Lynnwood, Washington. Drawing on her experience working with mostly sellers in recent years, Bowman discussed what it’s like to work with sellers while inventory is low. On the topic of bidding wars, Jen stressed the importance of timing for sellers when they hit the market, so they know they have exposed their home to the greatest number of interested buyers. Wrapping up, Jen touched on the recent trend of buyers moving to rural areas from her perspective in Snohomish County.

Episode 5: Genevieve Stoll – Watch it here

New Jersey natives Carla Marie and Windermere agent Genevieve Stoll continued the #AskAnAgent conversations with an instructive discussion, examining the real estate process from multiple angles. For Stoll, one of the first thing she tells her buyers looking to strengthen their offers is to speak with a reputable lender right away to get the pre-approval process started. The conversation shifted to how buyers’ needs are shifting during the pandemic and the resurgence of vacation home purchases.

Episode 6: Derrik Shockman – Watch it here

For the final #AskAnAgent episode of 2020, Carla Marie chatted with Derrik Shockman, a former business owner and agent with Windermere Abode in Tacoma, Washington. For Shockman, being an entrepreneur and real estate agent are similar in that both require staying calm through the ups and downs of the market. Derrik also shared his expert knowledge on the similarities and differences between single-family houses, townhouses, and condos, and the different needs they satisfy for buyers.
