Do You Have a Real Estate Related Question? I Will Email You an Answer Quickly. 

Having your house on the market involves a certain invasion of your privacy. Real estate agents will be previewing it and showing it to buyers with some regularity. While you want to make your home reasonably accessible to the real estate professionals and their prospects, you don't want to run the risk of stepping out of your shower just as a broker is ushering in buyers.

In many areas real estate agents use a handy little tool of the trade called a "lock box". When a property is occupied, the agent first calls to let the owner know when they will be coming by. If no one is at home, the agent can get into the house with a key stored in the lock box.

The other extreme of accessibility is to require a day's notice before a showing, and to insist that your real estate agent be present at each one. This will eliminate a lot of the inconvenience to you, but it may also eliminate a lot of showings of your house. Whatever arrangements you work out, keep in mind that the easier you make it for real estate agents to open and show your home, the easier it will be to sell it quickly.

DeLena began to sell Real Estate with a local Conventional Brokerage and soon decided that in order to grow she would need to affiliate herself with a much larger, International Company. She chose RE/MAX and that is when her career as a Realtor began to soar. After just her second year with RE/MAX (1993) DeLena ranked #5 in all of Ohio among RE/MAX Realtors. In addition to her numerous local recognizable awards with the Columbus Board and Ohio Association of Realtors, she was inducted into the RE/MAX International "Hall of Fame" and "Lifetime Achievement" (RE/MAX's highest achievement awards) as the youngest Realtor in RE/MAX History to attain this level of sales. She has been the recipient of RE/MAX's highest awards since her first full year with RE/MAX. She has been recognized in "Who's Who" in Residential Real Estate in North America for 1994, 1995, & 1996, and articles have been written about her in Ohio Realtor Magazine, In Contract Magazine, Columbus Executive Woman's magazine, Business First and Buon Giorno magazine, to name just a few. She has contributed her time as a Speaker on numerous "Top Producer" panels in 1993-2002 (ytd). In 2002 DeLena was nominated for the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of The Year.
