I

t’s my great pleasure to share MAXiRED with all my RE/MAX colleagues around the world. Since early 2009, we have been improving each issue of the magazine but now it’s time to progress… to become the real estate magazine with the biggest presence in the world.

RE/MAX is present in more than 80 countries, with over 6,300 offices and around 90,000 associate agents. A real estate presence doesn’t come much larger.

MAXiRED Homes Around the World is a professional tool for agents, offices and regions including highly interesting content on the hive of activity that goes on every day, a selection of tips for clients (buyers and sellers) and above all, listings of properties around the world.

MAXiRED Homes Around the World will be published bi-monthly in print (contact your RE/MAX agent or subscribe to receive by post), online www.maxiredmagazine.com in an attractive and user-friendly format, via iPad and iPhone or, if you prefer, in a downloadable

PDF – whichever is easiest and suits you best.

If you’re planning to buy or sell a property in your locality, country or anywhere in the world the easiest thing to do is contact your RE/MAX agent or a RE/MAX office in your area (there’ll be at least one!). It’s worth remembering that RE/MAX agents receive the best training in the real estate industry and know about the most effective marketing strategies to promote sales of properties, all guided by a strict Code of Ethics… with the sole aim of providing clients with the highest quality service to look after them and ensure they’re clients for life.

When you’re with your RE/MAX agent, explain what you want to do (buy or sell) as thoroughly and frankly as possible. For that moment on, your RE/MAX agent starts working for you and will contact RE/MAX colleagues around the world so that together they provide the best possible service.

Your RE/MAX agent will always be at your side!! And for life. With MAXiRED, you now have the world in your hands.

Villa Paradiso dell’Etna Hotel

T

he hotel, which was founded by journalist Mollica Alagona to enjoy the scenery of Etna, a place that had delighted

Goethe, Maupassant, Houel and many others writers of

international renown, was inaugurated in 1929.

After being in the 30s-40s a reference point for the Sicilian culture and hospitality, during the Second World War the hotel was requisited by

General Rommel who chose it as the operational centre of the German army.

The old villa, after the accurate restoration completed in 1995, became a charming 4-star hotel. The atmosphere is that of an elegant private

Collect Sicilian villa in the quiet of a park on the slopes of Etna, among palm trees, citrus plants and flowering bushes.

The interiors show antique Sicilian furniture from the XIX century, decorated walls, a lobby organized as a living room with sofas, paintings and a lot of flowers.

The 31 rooms and 4 suites look on to the volcano or to the pool in the park. A meticulous restoration has perfectly kept the characteristics of the time: gritty old carpets, trompe l’oeils, decorative walls, stuccos, liberty chandeliers and windows.

The secular park benefits from the natural scenery of Etna, framed by

ancient columns, vases, wought-iron lamps and oak trees. The fitness center, the heated swimming pool and an old Sicilian kiosk complete this perfect setting.

THE WORLD IN YOUR HANDS I MAXiRED HOME AROUND THE WORLD 33

Working with your Agent Electing the right real estate agent to help you is essential Selecting the right real estate agent to help you buy or sell your home is essential to a smooth transaction.

For the best possible experience, you should consider a professional’s background, personality and responsiveness. Here are some tips to help you choose and work with your real estate agent.

How to Choose a Real Estate Agent:

What to Ask in The Interview If selling, ask the real estate agent how he or she would establish a listing price. Request a Comparative Market Analysis, which shows the market value of similar homes in the area that are for sale or have recently sold.

Ask the agent how he or she would market your property.

Understand that some agents may prefer to first tour your home and then put together a customized marketing plan to present at a later meeting.

Ask the agent how often you should expect to hear from him or her. Know how and when you will communicate to avoid unrealistic expectations.

Pay attention to the agent’s listening skills. Does he or she cut you off before you’ve finished a sentence? There’s nothing worse than looking at houses you have no interest in because the real estate agent has not listened carefully to your needs, or having your home on the market too long because it’s priced incorrectly and the wrong buyers are being targeted.

Recommend You How to Work With Your Real Estate Agent

If you are selling, create an information sheet that lists your home’s features and best qualities, especially those that others might overlook. Your agent may be able to use the information when marketing your home.

When selling, talk to the real estate agent about cosmetic improvements. Your home may need fresh paint or new carpet.

If selling, give it a good clean to show your property at its best advantage. It may be a pain but keep the bathroom mirrors wiped down and sweep or vacuum the floors daily.

If buying, be clear about what you want. Make a list of your priorities from 1 to 10. You can always revise the list, but give your agent something concrete so that he or she can research available listings more efficiently.

Food for Thought

Hiring a professional real estate agent will give you a strong advantage. Although many practitioners work part-time, RE/MAX Associates are full-time professionals who provide their complete attention and expertise.

Your real estate agent is an authority you hire to help you make the right decisions, but you have the final word.

Your residence is likely to be the biggest single investment you’ll ever make. Buy and sell wisely.

Ask the agent what his or her fee structure is. Does he or she require a percentage of the sales price or work for a flat fee?

Will the agent be paid another way?

Office environment can say a lot about a businessperson.

Is it clean and organized? Do the office hours make it easily accessible? Are staff members pleasant and helpful?

If you are unsatisfied with a prospect’s plans or personality, thank him or her for taking the time to meet with you and repeat the process with another real estate agent. It can be time-consuming, but it’s worthwhile. Once you’ve found the right real estate agent to represent you, hold up your end of the relationship. There are simple things you can do to help your real estate agent get you the best deal.

Remember that home values fluctuate with the economy, be realistic about the current state of the market.
