Heather Blackard (@RE/MAX) is a very persistent, smart, and hard-working Real Estate Professional.
Initially when I started my home search in Big Bear I didn’t have a realtor so was contacting the listing agents directly. Heather follow up with me on one of the homes I was interested in. At the time I was only dealing with listing agents and let her know my plans. Heather took it in stride and made a witty remark remark that made her stood out. As time pass she was persistent in keeping in touch with useful buyer information about the area.
It was a sellers market when I was doing my home search, when offers were coming in at $50k-$110k over listing. In this situation, it’s better to have your own Buyer's Agent. So I reach out to Heather to become our Buyer's Agent.
Heather is smart and hardworking as we were viewing properties to point out the hit and misses about the property. I like when a realtor isn’t always pro on the house as not all houses are worth purchasing. Also, she would point out things that non locals would not know right off the bat. As mentioned, it was a seller’s market and Heather was able to successfully navigate our purchase offer to get the home that we wanted!
The hard work is dealing with the Buyer's demands as well as the other side: listing agent/sellers. There were some issues with the inspection and sqft of the home which Heather was able to satisfy both parties. She is a great Realtor and was constantly in contact with us through the whole process. I would use Heather from RE/MAX again and recommend her for your buying (or selling) transactions. =)
