Why Choose Richard Martin?
Designations and
Affiliations:
- Accredited Buyer's
Representative-Awarded to Realtors who meet specific educational and practical
experience criteria. I represent Buyers exclusively and negotiate in their
behalf tenaciously to obtain the best property, price, and terms. Buyers become
"Clients" and not merely customers.
- Certified Residential Specialist--Just
5% of all REALTORS can call themselves Certified Residential Specialists. That
is because only 1 in 20 has the extensive experience, the unique commitment,
and the hours of advanced training necessary to call herself or himself a
Certified Residential Specialist.
- Graduate of the Realtors Institute-
Rigorous training detailing negotiating skills, contracts, laws, marketing, and
client satisfaction.
- California Real Estate Broker--Not all
salespersons are Brokers. Salespersons by law have to work for a Broker. To
obtain a Broker's license requires more education, experience, and passing a
detailed State Exam.
- Member of National Association of
REALTORS. REALTORS must agree in writing to adhere to a strict code of ethics.
Not all agents are REALTORS. If you meet a salesperson that is not a REALTOR,
ask them why!
- California Association of REALTORS
- HUD approved Real Estate Broker
- Director for Palm Springs Regional
Association of REALTORS
- Member of Palm Springs Chamber of
Commerce
- Notary Public-I often help Clients sign
Loan Documents after hours when they can't make it to the Escrow Office during
regular business times.
- Bachelor of the Arts, Northern Arizona
University, Hotel Motel and Food Service Administration

Cosmetic Improvements >Cosmetic Repairs
The better your home in looks while it is on the market, the more likely it is to sell quickly, and for the best price. When you have a listing appointment with a real estate agent, the agent will provide a detailed market analysis along with the advantages of listing with their company. He or she will then go through your home with you and make suggestions about cosmetic repairs that will help to present your home at its best.
The real estate agent's recommendations can make some sellers uncomfortable and a little defensive because they are reminders of all the "little" projects they have postponed. Real estate agent's occasionally encounter a homeowner who "has it all together", but such people are rare! Most sellers need suggestions about repairs that will make their home show well, and providing these ideas is an important part of a real estate agent's job.
