Welcome! Making a commitment to a realtor is an extremely important decision. You need someone you can trust!  If you’re selling... You need someone who has the same sense of urgency about selling your property as you do. If you have to move before your property sells, you need to know that your agent will continue to work hard to find a buyer. You need an agent who will put your listing on her website so that it available to virtually anyone in the world. You need someone who will actively search for a qualified buyer and who will follow-up on all leads! If you’re buying... You need someone who will listen to your needs and try to match you to just the right location and who understands that you have to find the perfect place so you can get your life back in order - soon. If you know that your stay here will be short-term, you need someone who can advise you about the safest area to buy in terms of resale. You need someone who knows where the schools and churches and grocery stores are. You need someone who can direct you to the appraisers, lending agents, surveyors, utility companies. You need someone who will help you with the transition to the Starkville/MSU area. You need a realtor who will make a commitment to you! I have made a commitment to this community and I am actively involved with community service agencies such as the Rotary Club, Chamber of Commerce, Oktibbeha County Humane Society, Starkville Arts Council, Starkville Community Theater, Starkville Symphony Association, and United Way. I have shown this commitment for over 28 years and I look forward to putting this commitment to work for you today! -Pat Lane, Your Starkville/MSU Real Estate Connection  
Real Estate Contracts >Contingency Sale
Sellers may be reluctant to accept an offer that is contingent on the sale of another property. However, such a sale can be structured to minimize the risks.
The seller should put a limit on the amount of time that the buyers have to accept an offer, and they should keep their home on the market during that time. They should also reserve the right to require that any contingencies be met within a short period of time, ideally 24 to 48 hours, if they get a second offer. This is called a "First Right" contingency.
Contingent sales can work well for the sellers. The buyer is not in a position to ask for concessions on price or terms and may be able to get interim financing. Each situation is different, however, so go over the terms with your real estate agent before accepting a contingent offer.
