Bringing business to Omaha is important. That’s why The Bill Black Team offers corporate relocation as one part of our multi-faceted services. It’s about more than business, it’s about doing the right thing.

What does our corporate relocation service include?

An Education about Omaha

When you have recruited someone new to your Omaha-based team and are ready to bring them on, it can be tough to know what the next logical step should be. That’s where The Bill Black Team comes in.

When encouraging someone to uproot and move to Omaha, we recognize that’s a big step in a person’s life. That’s why it’s important to educate the person about Omaha. There are many things that make our city unique but those from out of town don’t know what it is until we tell them.

I spend a certain amount of time with someone who is considering relocating to Omaha just introducing them Omaha and telling them about what makes Omaha a great place to live. I answer any questions they might have about this area. This service is often overlooked by other builders, but is valuable to anyone who has ever relocated to a new area.

An In-Depth Tour of Omaha

How can I possibility tell someone how great Omaha is without actually showing them? I also give tours of Omaha. These tours can be short or as in-depth as they need to be until a potential new resident feels as confident and comfortable as they need to be to make the decision if Omaha is right for them.

I offer tours for:

• 4 hours
• ½ day tour
• All day tour
• One and a half day tour

Corporate Relocation: A Free Service

The right thing to do doesn’t need to cost anything. The Bill Black team doesn’t charge for corporate relocation services. We simply want to help others and, if they choose to move to Omaha, we hope they will allow us to help them with their housing needs.

Again, this is the right thing to do, so we may receive nothing in return and that’s OK.

Do you know someone whose business might be relocating them to Omaha? Or, do you just know someone who might be considering moving to Omaha, even if their job doesn’t require it? Whatever the case may be, our corporate relocation services may be just what they are looking for.

Why Use the Services of a Real Estate Agent?

This question is often asked, especially by homeowners who consider selling their homes by themselves.

The fundamental first answer to this question is that an experienced realtor is an expert at what he or she does. Through hard work and education, they’ve acquired a set of skills that make the process of home buying and selling a lot easier than it would be by doing it yourself.

So, what are the skills in the set I’m talking about?

Well, for one thing, we have the skill of being the go-between. We’re the people who handle people and calls and separate the “wheat” (real buyers) from the “chaff” (non-buyers) without you ever having to deal with such situations. In Internet terms, we make sure you’re not “spammed” with worthless offers and target real deals for you.We’re also the ones who save you a lot of time by making sure you’re looking at appropriate properties and neighborhoods right from the get-go.

And, speaking of neighborhoods, an experienced realtor will know them inside-out or will know how to find the latest information on them. That means he or she can get you into neighborhoods where the crime rate is low or non-existent, find you ones with great school systems, rising property values, etc.

By the same token, an experienced agent will steer you away from neighborhoods where the trends are downward; that is, rising crime, falling property values, and so forth.

And what about the prices of homes? Well, some people believe that we select them for our clients. Not true! We have no way of setting prices. They’re set by the market! However, we can guide you toward properties that fit your individual needs and are comfortably within your price range. Frankly, it’s not in our best interests to put you into a home beyond your means or that’s not right for you. When that happens, we lose clients and money!

So, we’ll do our best to work within your price range and, based on current information (market supply, demand, etc.), we’ll come up with the best negotiation strategy possible. Current information can include cost-per-square-foot of homes, ratios of list-to-sold prices, knowledge of the buyer/seller, etc. All this information is gathered by the agent and used to formulate solid offers.

Another important skill experienced Realtors possess is objectivity. We have the ability to stay out of the emotional process that often occurs with the buying and selling of a home. Instead, we present your case in the best light possible, all the while holding your information confidential from any competing interests.

One realtor skill that’s often not apparent is our ability to network with other service providers (housing inspectors, title companies, etc.) Professionally, we can’t recommend one specific vendor over another. However, we do keep lists of vendors with excellent reputations as well provide references for the vendors. This service allows you to choose the best provides for your particular situation.

Now, here’s one realtor skill that everyone truly appreciates – the ability to handle tons of paperwork! Today, purchase agreements can run 10+ pages, and that doesn’t even include all the state and federal disclosure statements that are required in the current market! Heck, a real estate file can end up being 2-3 inches thick with paperwork these days!

And it’s not only the heavy paperwork handled by realtors; it’s also the attention to detail within that paperwork. It’s their job (or a lawyer’s, depending on the state) to make sure all the information is correct because if it isn’t, it can end up costing the client hundreds of dollars. 

So, as you can see, there are many reasons why it’s wise to use an experienced Realtor for the purchase or sale of a home! To find out about the services I haven’t mentioned in this article, contact me today.
