 As a top real estate agent, I do not work alone! I am pleased work with Karie Anne Short. Together we provide our clients extraordinary service. Let me introduce you now! Karie Ann Short Hi, my name is Karie Ann let me tell you a little about myself. I was brought up in the hard-working region of upper NY. I moved to Woodbridge 12 years ago. I love the “always moving” pace of life here. I have a son and a dog. We are very much into soccer and long walks! After 20 years in sales and floral design I've expanded into interior consulting and staging of homes on the real estate market. A staged home is much more appealing to a buyer. People have long understood the importance of sprucing up the yard—creating “curb appeal”-- when selling a home. Planting a few extra flowers and keeping the lawn trim can add thousands of dollars to a seller’s net proceeds. “Staging” is the same principle applied to a home’s interior. I can provide you with interior decorating tips that can increase your home’s market value without stretching your wallet too far. My expertise in this is what led me into a partnership in real estate with Sheri Allen. Together as a team we have what it takes to achieve great service! ~ Karie Anne Short

First Time Buyers >A Realistic Evaluation
Your real estate agent's job is to find you the perfect home, in the right location, with all the amenities you want--and at the right price. It is the home inspector's job to find any skeletons in the closet -- or in the plumbing, wiring, roof, basement and beams.
The inspector won't pass or fail a home based on what he or she finds, but will go over the house thoroughly to help you understand the condition of the property you are buying. If there are any serious problems, your inspector can give you a realistic idea of how much the repairs will cost. If there are material defects that were not reflected in the asking price, you will have the opportunity to re-open negotiations with your sellers before you commit to the purchase. A good inspector will also explain the operation of the basic emergency systems such as the main water cut off valve and the circuit breaker box, and will go over items that will need routine maintenance.
If you are buying a house, we recommend that you make a professional home inspector part of your home purchase team.
