UrbanDigs in Daily News

Posted by Noah Rosenblatt on October 17, 2006 at 10.01 AM

A: Sorry for the lack of posts recently as commuting to NYC takes all my free time away (should be taking a Nov 1st lease, but won't be able to move in until Nov 10th or so). I'll try to get a few up there today, as I have some things I would like to discuss and hear your feedback on. In meantime, check out the article in yesterday's Daily News featuring my client, Vincent Ngai, who I met through the LIVE CHAT on UrbanDigs!

WHO IS VINCENT NGAI: One of my clients that I met through the LIVE CHAT feature on UrbanDigs

WHAT MADE HIM DIFFERENT: His dedication to finding a great deal on the east side helped him learn product knowledge and jump on a deal when one presented itself

HOW HE HANDLED THE REAL ESTATE BUYING PROCESS: Perfectly. He used every resource at his disposal, including my assistance with data that was hard to find online, to make sure he was bidding the right price for the right property. In the end, we devised a bidding strategy that allowed us to get the apartment he wanted for the price he hoped for!

And the little tidbit promoting UrbanDigs...

The moral of this story is that buyers are presented with a great deal of information on the web that can assist in the real estate buying process. However, I wouldn't discount the value of using a qualified real estate agent in addition to your own work to evaluate, negotiate, and guide you through the purchase; remember that if you buy on your own the seller broker will be in charge of all the above mentioned items and that the seller broker WORKS FOR the SELLER and NOT YOU! You can read more on Buyer Brokers in a past post I wrote.
