If It’s Possible She’ll Make It Happen!
Despite so much ‘doom and gloom’ news about the real estate market, there’s a small local real estate agency that has not only survived –it’s thrived!“We had the busiest January we’ve had since we opened our company in 2005,” owner Rebecca Cucovatz says. “New home building is starting to make a come back and spring is proving to be even better.”
It all started when Rebecca, with a background in accounting, invested in a piece of property with a friend. Before long she was hooked. From its’ inception, One Plus Realty has proven to be a fierce competitor in a market that until just recently was deemed stagnant at best by national analysts.
How have they done it? Instead of the traditional three percent typically charged to list a home, One Plus Realty charges only one and a half percent. In turn they give up to a one percent rebate to anyone buying a home using their services. One Plus Realty is able to save time and money for both buyers and sellers.
But the true driving force behind the success of One Plus Realty is Rebecca’s sincere desire to help people. One elderly woman’s home was due to be sold at auction on a Tuesday. Rebecca brought in an investor on a Monday and stopped the foreclosure.
She has a few words of advice for people who are facing foreclosure. “Don’t give up!” She’s even had instances when people have not been able to make their house payments for months where she’s not only helped them sell their house, they’ve walked away with cash. If it’s possible Rebecca will make it happen.
“The worst thing a person can do is walk away from their home,” Rebecca says. “That is a black mark that will stay on their credit for at least seven years. A short sale will typically stay on their credit for year. Most people don’t realize there are plenty of investors who are looking for investment opportunities.”
If a short sale is the only option, Rebecca is certified to speed up the paperwork. “Because the paperwork is so extensive and there have been so many short sales, the paper work must be perfect or the bank will often reject the sale.”
