Duke Warner Realty was established in 1967 by Duke and Kitty Warner. Their philosophy was to establish a first-rate real estate company sensitive to their customers’ needs. They felt that if they treated the customers fair and square, they would keep coming back and bring others with them. That is exactly what happened.
Duke Warner Realty’s brokers share this philosophy, and today the firm is widely-known for its personalized service and reliability. Unlike many real estate firms, Duke Warner Realty has little turnover in personnel. Years after a transaction is complete, a client, their relatives or friends can return knowing that he or she will find the same personal care – and most likely, the same broker!
With this kind of reputation, Duke Warner Realty’s success has endured through good times and bad. The company is here to stay, and its brokers are interested and actively involved in our wonderful community.
The Skjersaa Group’s success is the result of hard work and commitment to customer service. The right combination of talent, personality, and the combined knowledge of our team allows us to offer the highest level of quality and service. Our team of professionals Terry, Jason, Mollie, Greg, and Natasha can provide you with the best quality of service and are committed to exceeding your expectations.
Few families have stronger roots in Bend than Terry Skjersaa. His grandparents Olaf and Grace opened Bend’s first ski shop in 1939. With more than 20 years of experience in the ski and outdoor industry, Terry knows the area from the top of Mount Bachelor to the canyons of the Deschutes River, and all points in between. Terry enjoys spending time with his daughters Ellie and Jade, and his wife Renee. Some of his favorite leisure activities include skiing, cycling, camping and enjoying all that Central Oregon has to offer.
Jason and his wife relocated to Central Oregon from Seattle in 2003. Like Terry, Jason migrated to Real Estate from the Ski & Outdoor Industry. In fact, Terry and Jason worked together in the Ski industry for over 11 years. Their partnership in Real Estate is based on many years of respect and trust. Jason’s background is a diverse mix of sales, marketing, customer service and technology. His uncompromising attention to detail will ensure that you receive the most thorough representation possible. He enjoys spending time with his wife, Karin, daughter, Ashley and son, Eli.
Mollie is a Bend native. Her knowledge of the market and passion for the area is unprecedented. Her commitment to her clients is evident the moment you meet her. As a third generation Bendite, she firmly believes in the connectedness of her community. Mollie has a Bachelor of Science in Business and Interior design. She looks at a home from every angle to get the most for the money and to create harmonious spaces. She has a keen ability to read her clients needs and will hunt for their perfect home with bird-dog ability. Mollie is an outdoor enthusiast, with a background in dance and yoga. She and her two dogs live a short distance to Downtown Bend.
After growing up in a rural area north of Seattle, Greg has since lived in every state on the west coast and a stint abroad becoming fluent in the rigors of relocating. After undergrad at the University of Washington where he met and married Ali, graduate studies in Canada and a doctorate in Scotland, their family continued to grow to include Sam, Anna, Eli and Joy - it was time to settle down permanently and make Bend home. Greg’s background is in organizational management and teaching primarily in professional church leadership before leveraging his experience with transition to advocate for others in their own process of buying and selling a home.
Natasha has long been fascinated with the real estate business. Having been in positions of management in customer service-based businesses and title & escrow, her focus on customer service and ensuring that everything runs smoothly in a transaction is second to none. She enjoys working with the clients to explain the process and guide each of our clients along the way. She is passionate about providing the best experience for our clients through her attention to detail and effective communication. In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her husband and child.

“Our decision to move to Central Oregon was relatively easy, but choosing exactly where to locate required a professional with the experience and knowledge to address our goals, needs, and lifestyle. Choosing Jason Boone & the Skjersaa Group was one of the best decisions we made. Beyond Jason’s professionalism was a personal interest in finding us exactly the right home in the right place. Jason’s ability to listen and pose questions which we wouldn’t have known to ask ourselves made the differ ence in finding the perfect home. What might have been a challenging process of buying a home and relocating from out of state was greatly facilitated by Jason. We routinely refer friends and family to Jason without reservation, knowing that he can be counted on for solid advice.”

property, it is not likely to be shown. If your home is being shown, but not sold, it may be used to make other listings look more attractive.
The basic forces of supply and demand are evident in these survey results that compare the average percentage difference between the asking prices of homes and the actual selling prices. On average, homes that were on the market for less than four weeks actually sold for slightly more than the original asking price. However, as the length of time a home was on the market increased, so did the difference between the asking price and the selling price. Homes on the market for more than 24 weeks sold for an average of 10 percent less than the asking price.

> Buyers are aware of how long a property has been on the market. If a property takes a long time to sell, buyers usually attribute that to overpricing or flaws with the property.
> Overpricing reduces the impact of marketing.
> Buyers look at prices on many comparable properties. If your property does not compare favorably, it won’t sell.
> Proper pricing will produce an early sale and typically for the higher sales price.
> Buyers avoid overpriced homes and usually do not choose to look at them.
> If overpricing delays a sale, the cost and inconvenience could be prohibitive. (Examples: Delay in job transfer, payment on two mortgages, wear and tear on your present property, loss of opportunity elsewhere, etc.)
> Top agents are less likely show “old” listings.
> Two questions buyer prospects usually ask before viewing a property are:
“What’s the price?”
“How long has it been on the market?”
> Properties that are reasonably priced create a sense of “urgency” in prospective buyers.
Homes sell at fair market value. Pricing a home realistically will bring an early sale, fewer inconveniences, and a greater monetary return.

HOME INSPECTIONS will call out any deferred maintenance, safety or security concerns related to the home you are considering buying. Your Realtor will help you negotiate any necessary repairs needed to protect your future asset.
APPRAISAL - Appraisals are required to ensure the home you are buying is worth the value you are paying. They are required by a lender when you are getting a loan, and considered a major milestone in the transaction process. Your Realtor will help by providing supporting evidence of recent sales comparables.
SEPTIC INSPECTIONS Due to the County’s liability, the Health Department has become much more concerned about the inspection of existing septic systems.
WOOD STOVE INSPECTIONS Insurance companies, lenders, and buyers are forced to deal with many unsafe wood stove installations. Wood stove and inserts must be installed to manufacturer’s specifications and pass inspection by a city or county inspector, and be certified.
ROOF INSPECTIONS (by licensed and bonded contractor) Appraisers and lenders require a roof inspection if your roof is in need of potential repair or replacement. They will require at least 5 years service from your existing roof.
WELL OR CISTERN REPORT Lenders and buyers are concerned about the amount of water (flow) and quality of water (potability).
IRRIGATION Need to verify water rights as adjudicated or permit rights with consistent usage.
FARM DEFERRED TAXES These special tax deferrals can be a real problem for lenders and buyers, as well as sellers, and must be properly disclosed and transferred.
LEGAL PARCEL Created prior to 1/5/77 or by partition or subdivision. Many owners have property that cannot be built upon because the parcels were not created properly.
CREATIVE FINANCING Many creative transactions can cause legal and financial problems for all parties involved. If properly conceived and written by competent people, creative financing can be a useful tool to successful investments.
INEXPENSIVE PROPERTIES & MOBILES Lenders are becoming very selective and in many situations will not finance mobiles or generate new loans under $50,000.
OWNER TERMS The contract must be properly negotiated and recorded using a mortgage, land sale contract or trust deed. For your protection you should require financial statements and credit report for your approval. You should be sure the buyers have insurance to cover this contract and have all payments made through an escrow collection account for proper bookkeeping.
Potential pitfalls that a good Realtor® will help you solve or avoid when marketing your property.
> Without a real estate license you cannot list your property on MLS. Not listing on MLS significantly limits the exposure of your property.
> Putting a sign in your yard will get you exposure. This is minimal compared to the amount of people across the country looking at data online syndicated from MLS.
> Many agents do not work with FSBOs. This further limits your listing’s exposure and number of showings. In a typical listing agreement, the buyer’s agent receives their commission from the Seller. In a FSBO, a buyer usually pays additional commission to their agent. This will significantly decrease the amount a buyer will offer a seller.
> Money aside, most agents are not eager to work with a seller that is lacking real estate experience.
> Homeowners are usually convinced their home is worth more than other comparable properties. The Skjersaa Group has the market knowledge needed to price a home accurately to maximize showings, attract reasonable offers, and initiate a quick sale. Over pricing a home is the perfect way to detract promising buyers.
> Having an agent on both sides of the transaction creates an emotional buffer between the buyer and seller. A buyer is less likely to write an offer if they have to deal directly with the seller.
> Federal and State laws require extensive disclosure and contract requirements. The real estate contract is now 10 pages, versus the one page it was a decade ago, making real estate transactions complicated. A seller is often unaware of the legal requirements and is substantially increasing their level of liability by not using an experienced agent. Omissions and inexperience can lead to potential lawsuits in the years following the sale.
> Real estate agents are equipped with the negotiation skills needed to save you money. Agents do not have an emotional stake in your home making it easier to deal with contingencies and criticisms that arise during the transaction.
> Real estate agents make themselves available to show houses, field calls, and screen buyers. This not only saves you time but increases the exposure of your listing and increases your potential buyer pool.
> Perform a Market Analysis of the property to determine the fair market value.
> Develop marketing and advertising plans to sell your home.
> Prepare and distribute sales information to local associates through our Multiple Listing Service.
> Place your home on our office & MLS tour.
> Personally review results of our company preview.
> Distribute promotional brochures and/or letters to targeted markets.
> Coordinate appointments, follow-up on showings, and report to you on customer feedback.
> Contact you regularly until we have sold and closed.
> Install an upgraded 4x4 lawn sign for extra exposure. Sign will have flyer box, which we will keep full.
> Provide a list of Contractors who can repair any items that are broken, missing, or in need of repair.
> Get as many qualified buyers as possible into your home until it is SOLD.
> Assist you in getting the highest possible dollar value for your property with the least amount of problems in the shortest possible time.
> Promote your property for maximum exposure to the other agents in the area.
> Suggest and advise you as to any changes to make in your property to make it even more marketable.

Why hire a Certified Residential Investment Specialist? If you are considering purchasing residential investment property it is to your advantage to use a realtor who has specialized training in this market segment.
The experience and specialized training in various strategies of analysis will not only increase your ability to make a sound investment decision; but also provide you with tangible information and projections for future returns over a period of time.
Selecting the correct properties for investment requires not only understanding the technical and fi nancial side of the investment but also understanding the market segment to properly determine which homes, multi-plexes or small office properties have the best income potential for the holding period and upside(s) for a future resale.
Hiring a Certified Residential Investment Specialist as part of your team will greatly increase your probability of success with your investment property portfolio.
We genuinely want your business and come to an agreement regarding the listing of your property. We also understand that you will likely interview some other local realtors.

One way to make your home appeal to all buyers is to conduct a pre-listing inspection. A pre-listing inspection helps sellers discover flaws in their home that they might want to address before sale. Since the buyer will use his or her inspection to gain information on issues that could justify renegotiation or even abandonment of the purchase, its’ important for you to know your home’s condition -- even if you don’t plan to do work on the property.
A pre-listing inspection also creates a positive marketing tool that you or your agent can use to promote your home. Each WIN pre-listing inspection includes marketing materials alerting potential buyers that your home has been pre-inspected and is move-in ready.
Pre-Listing inspection also help you prepare your home for the best possible results during a buyer’s inspection. Some inspectors complain that sellers often don’t think about how to best present a home to the buyer’s inspector, who may draw conclusions about a home’s structure based on minor issues the seller could easily address. Gestures as simple as changing burned-out indoor and outdoor light bulbs or scraping windows that have been painted shut could prevent the mistaken impression that the house has electrical flaws or outages or that non of its windows open. Replacing filters in furnaces and air conditioners, cleaning ducts, and adjusting door knobs and locks con all help with your buyer’s inspection. You’ll also need to provide keys to exterior structures, and unblock access to attics, and crawl spaces.
Having your home pre-inspected makes your transaction move along smoother - with fewer surprises. Sellers have prepared for issues and buyers have fewer reservations making an offer.

> Choose a date that will not conflict with holidays or other special events.
> Weekends are more convenient for most people than weekdays.
> Your sale is likely to attract more customers if you join together with neighbors in a larger effort with more merchandise.
> Practical household goods, bicycles, children’s toys and clothes, sports equipment and garden tools are popular items; adult clothing has less appeal and should be priced accordingly.
> Merchandise your items attractively in neat, clean surroundings. Paper tablecloths offer a pretty setting for glass and ornamental items. Cluster things in categories; place more desirable items in the back of the garage so browsers are urged to look at other merchandise on their way to the most popular items.
> Have a 25-cent miscellaneous table for youthful shoppers.
> All items should be clean, polished and in good repair. Clothes should be sized accurately and hung on a temporary rack using two ladders and a pole.
> Locate your appliance table near an outlet so customers may try before they buy.
> Be sure there is adequate parking space and a place to load large items. Have plenty of paper bags and boxes for packing and newspapers for wrapping glass items.
> Place a classified ad in the local papers, including three or four specific items for sale, directions and other pertinent details.
> Take advantage of free publicity provided by bulletin boards in grocery stores and other public places.
> Visit other sales to form an idea on how to price things, but remember that garage sale shoppers are looking for “bargains.” Be prepared to bargain and lower your prices.
> Really valuable items such as antiques should not be sold at a garage sale, because it is unlikely they will bring the desired price from bargain minded shoppers. On the other hand, nothing is too worthless to be valuable to some one. Have a giveaway box for old magazines and other assorted odds and ends.
> Post a notice that all sales are final and payment must be in cash.
> Have plenty of change in a cash box kept in a protected spot. Keep a record of sales, especially when there are several sellers. One recording device that is simple and efficient is to use small white stickers to price items. When the item is purchased, remove the sticker and place it next to the name of the seller.
> After holding one or 2 garage sales, you can probably add some newly discovered tips of your own. A bit of organization will make for a successful sale and an uncluttered house.
>
Tidy up the grounds – porches – garage. Keep lawn trimmed and edged. Make sure that your yard is clean of refuse.
> Your front door gives a vital first impression, be sure it is scrubbed clean and freshly painted.
> Make sure windows are clean and in good repair.
> If any decoration is needed (especially kitchen) do it now! $20.00 worth of paint may balance $100 in a price cut. Bathrooms help sell homes. Make this room sparkle!
> Keep all steps clear of hazards.
> Don’t forget to have all light sockets filled with bulbs. Illumination is like a welcome sign. The potential buyers will feel a glowing warmth when you turn on all your lights for an evening inspection.
> Wash dishes, put away clothes, straighten up newspapers, etc.
> Make up bed with attractive spreads.
> Keep pets out of the way when showing. (One type of prospect is annoyed – the other gets attention diverted.)
> Avoid having anyone present during showings. The potential buyer will feel like an intruder and will hurry through the house.
> Leave showing up to the salesperson. It is their business to sell; they can better read their clients’ reactions alone. The salesperson knows the buyer’s requirements and can best emphasize the features of your home. You will be called if needed.
> Don’t discuss anything concerning the sale with the potential buyer. Let the Realtor® discuss price, terms, possession, and other factors with their client. They are qualified to bring negotiations to a favorable conclusion.
> Never apologize for appearance. It only accents or distracts.
> Never try to sell furniture or “things” to a customer before the deal is completed.
> Turn on all lights, for all showings. A well lighted house looks more attractive than one that is dark. Even in the middle of the day, lighting accents colors, and makes the house more inviting.
> Open all the drapes and blinds. This will let in the natural light and allow the prospect to see the view or yard area.
> Start the fire. If it’s winter or cool outside, a fire will make a house more comfortable.
> If convenient, you, your children and pets should leave the house. If it isn’t, keep the children entertained in one area of the home or yard and keep the pets contained away from the customers. (Some prospects can be annoyed – others will be distracted from properly viewing your property.)
> Make your home smell inviting – Bake a cake or brownies, or heat pot pourri (you can use a mixture of apples & spices.)
Landmark Home Warranty and First American Title seem to provide the best products and the highest quality of service. There are several other home warranties available from other providers and, if for any reason, you have a preference we encourage you to do what is right for you.
A Home Warranty covers major home systems and appliances that break down due to normal wear and tear. This includes central heating and cooling systems, plumbing, electrical, and major household appliances.
Unlike other insurance plans that only help during rare disasters, you are almost guaranteed to use your home warranty. A home warranty helps you avoid the cost and stress of repairing or replacing these systems that will inevitably break down.
Buyers are less concerned with additional home owner costs when their home systems and appliances are covered with a home warranty. Homes sell faster and sellers are protected while their homes are on the market.
We are passionate about helping the environment as well as our local community. That being said, we have created a campaign pledging at least 1% of the revenue generated by The Skjersaa Group to various charaties and non-profit organizations. The Skjersaa Group is commited to making a difference, and we believe that starts with giving back!
We are proud to support :
