FAQS
1) What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?
1. Get very clear on what you're looking for. Many buyers become frustrated because they use the conventional method of looking for a home. They spend too much time looking at homes that aren't a perfect fit.
2. If you are not paying cash, make sure you are dealing with a great mortgage company/loan officer. We've seen many deals fall apart at the end of the process due to buyers using less than stellar mortgage company or loan officer.
3. If you are using the general public sites like Zillow and Trulia...be careful. Those sites are lead generation sites and tend to have outdated info about homes for sale. Remember, their goal is to generate you as a lead to sell to an agent, not to give you the best data.
2) What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?
1. Use an agent that employs the best, direct response style of marketing. Many agents are still selling homes the way it was done 20 or 30 years ago...they stick a sign in the yard, put the home in the MLS and hope another agent has a buyer. This conventional method of selling leaves money on the table for the seller. Ask to see how the agent markets their listings. Ask them if they utilize a Facebook Dark Post to market their listings...if they don't know what that is or give you a strange look, then you need to talk to another agent.
2. You absolutely have to nail your pricing. Don't guess. Don't leave too much "room to negotiate."
I could go on and on about this but I don't need to because I've written a book on this subject. I'll send you a copy for free...just send an email to [email protected] and ask for a copy of the Home Selling Book.
3) What types of clients have you worked with?
We have dealt with all types of clients buying or selling residential real estate all across Northwest Ohio.
4) Describe a recent transaction you are fond of. How did it go?
Here is feedback from a couple of recent transactions...from our clients:
"I contacted Benny Maxwell when it was time to sell my house. Excellent excellent excellent choice!!
On his first trip over to my house he was able to provide a solid assessment of where it stood for the purposes of marketing it. We were then able to have an honest discussion on price expectations and we were able to agree on an amount that was reasonable but with a little stretch. This was a great decision, because once we officially listed it we generated immediate interest. The next several days we had many showings and a few that resulted in offer-level interest! I took Benny's advice on a counteroffer situation and just like that we were done!!! Amazing how quickly everything went, and for a price that made us happy as well!
After we had an accepted offer, Benny was great at guiding us through everything that was going to happen going forward. Knowing that I have a large family to tend to and also demanding work obligations, Benny made it easy for me to use electronic resources to complete forms and keep the process on schedule and rolling at all times.
From beginning to end, Benny was great to work with- professional, knowledgeable, honest, courteous- everything we needed from him, we got it! I highly recommend!!!" -Adam & Emily Swartz

“First let me say that I was not sure who to work with in the Perrysburg Ohio area so I thought I would give your service a try. Several agents contacted me and I finally decided to go with Benny Maxwell at Key Realty.
Quite simply Benny was outstanding.
He prepared a great summary of the property and gave me some very rational logic during our discussions about setting the asking price. He was very confidant that the house would sell quickly given the recent market conditions and he was spot on with his advice.
Once we did have an offer he demonstrated very good negotiating skills and it was enjoyable to work with Benny through the various steps to the closing. I would highly recommend Benny.
Me and my wife have moved several times in our careers and had real estate transactions each time. Benny is at the top of our list of real estate professionals we have worked with.†-Ron & Peggy Shriver
5) How did you get started in Real Estate?
Angela got her start as a personal assistant to the #1 agent in Northwest Ohio. She then became a licensed assistant and then a full time agent.
Benny owned a successful mortgage company until the real estate crash changed everything in 2007-2008. After closing the mortgage business, it was a natural move into real estate.
6) Do you have any special education or training that will benefit your clients?
We don't sit in a class for 2 hours and then brag to everybody about a designation. Our training is ongoing and solely for the benefit of providing the best service possible to our clients. They reward us by giving us referrals. Please read what some of our clients have to say by visiting: www.GoMaxwellTeam.com
