Naples, Fl – What is a pocket listing?

July 25, 2014 By Tim Cranch Leave a Comment

What is a pocket listing? A so-called "pocket listing" is a property for sale that is not in the MLS system (Multiple Listing Service). That sounds simple but, pocket listings come in different shades of gray.

Naples FL Real Estate Terms – A Home Inspection is Not a Feasibility Study

April 6, 2012 By Ellie Penaranda Leave a Comment

I can understand if the public/consumer might think that those two terms are the same.  But I am constantly amazed by how many agents use the term home inspection as if it were a feasibility study, and tell their buyers to make an offer on a home and that they will have 15 days during the home inspection to think about it. Let's just address the two terms: Feasibility study- is a term mostly used in commercial real estate contracts.  It allows the buyer to study/ research the commercial … [Read more...]
