A Message from Matthew H. Maschler A Message from Matthew H. Maschler Real Estate Broker
March is a great month to sell your house!!!
Buyers are here on vacation, Spring Break, visiting family, etc.
Many northerners have second homes in Florida that they can flock to as a reprieve from the cold weather, so the number of buyers is typically much higher.
Maybe you do not know what your house is worth, or how much you can afford to buy when you sell.
We can help you price your home and make suggestions to declutter. We can make plans with a stager, give you time to make necessary repairs, have photographs taken by our team of the best photographers in town. It takes time to craft a marketing plan and put it into action. Sure, you can rush and any discount agent can throw your house on the MLS, but with the proper time and care, listed by a highly trained Signature agent, we can get your home sold quicker and for more money. I have seen it happen dozens of times.
The demand for housing in Florida has never been HIGHER and I will be
hosting Real Estate Rock Star Frank Mckinney on my podcast this month to talk about the High End Florida real estate market. Make sure you tune in to the Real Estate Finder Podcast every week.

Ask The Broker
Dear Matthew,
My Seller is accepting an offer on one of my listings, but the Buyer’s Agent did not include a Compensation Agreement.
What do I do?
Yours Truly,
A Listing Agent
Dear Listing Agent,
If the Buyer’s agent does not ask for or send a Compensation Agreement you do not have to pay them a commission. This can happen for a number of reasons, either the Buyer’s Agent is not knowledgeable, or is collecting the commission directly from the Buyer. No need to do anything, they will not get paid a commission from the Listing Agent at closing and if they have a Buyer Broker Agreement signed with their customer, they will collect their commission from the Buyer at the closing.

Fara Youngswick Director of Business Development
Fara Youngswick grew up on Long Island, New York, and began selling at the age of 13 while working for her parent's bagel store. It was there that she learned the value of hard work, teamwork, and that the customer always comes first. Negotiating with vendors for the best possible price became second nature to her, a valuable skill in residential real estate.
Moving to South Florida shortly after the birth of her second daughter in 1997 was an easy decision. She disliked the cold northern winters and loved the tropical sunshine. Fara earned her real estate license in 2001 and has been working in all aspects of the real estate industry for over 18 years, navigating every type of market while representing sellers, buyers and investors.
Leveraging her experience as a successful Realtor, Fara is known for outstanding client service, 24/7 availability, consistent communication, attention to detail, and skilled negotiation with her clients' best interests at heart. She believes it is not only her responsibility to represent her clients to the best of her ability but also to educate them throughout every step of the process so they can make the best possible decisions. Welcoming new clients in a way that has become her "signature" style, she builds lasting
relationships. Her customers firmly believe in the expertise she provides, the way she provides it, and the enormous benefits they receive. Long after the first transaction has concluded, she and her clients continue to call each other friends.
Fara now serves as the Director of Business Development for Signature and interviews all potential new agents that want to join me at Signature Real Estate Finder. If you are a real estate agent who wants to join Team Awesome, reach out to her for an interview fara@quadcompanies.com

I highly recommend ALL agents (new and experienced) listen to our podcast.We cover all sorts of topics that you will definitely find both interesting and entertaining, even when we weren’t trying to be funny or educational.
Our experiences are extremely relatable and you might get insight into how to find your own solutions based on one of our episodes. Plus, we want to hear from you!
Let us know what you want us to cover, explain, discuss or define. There are so
many moving parts in real estate. It would take a decade to discuss everything. What do you find extremely rewarding in our industry? What is your pet peeve? Have you ever wanted to quit real estate? What kept you going?
Currently there have been 134 episodes of the podcast. And if you’re up for it, come on our show! We do have as much (probably more!) fun as it sounds like we are having. ~ Staci Garcia
