FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

A few questions I hear most often from buyers and sellers around St. Louis.

Do I need a buyer’s agent to buy a home in St. Louis?

In Missouri, you’ll sign a written buyer representation agreement before we start touring homes. It spells out exactly how I work for you and how I get paid, so there are no surprises later. As your agent, I represent your interests in the deal, not the seller’s.

What does it cost to work with you?

Compensation is always negotiable, and we’ll settle it up front before you sign anything. Sellers usually pay their commission out of the proceeds at closing. For buyers, we’ll walk through the arrangement in our first conversation so you know where you stand from day one.

What areas do you serve?

I work across the St. Louis metro: St. Louis City, St. Louis County, St. Charles County, and the Metro East on the Illinois side. If you’re not sure which side of the river fits, that’s exactly the kind of question I’m happy to help you sort out.

I’m new to St. Louis. Where do I even start?

Start with how you actually live: your commute, your budget, and whether you picture a historic brick rowhouse in the city or a newer build in the county. The neighborhood snapshots on this page are a good first look. Once you have a feel for the style, we’ll narrow it to a few blocks and start touring.

What’s the first step to buy or sell?

Buying: get pre-approved with a lender first. It tells you what you can comfortably afford and makes your offer stronger. Selling: we’ll talk through timing, a pricing strategy, and whether anything is worth fixing before it hits the market. Either way, it starts with one conversation.

How long does buying or selling take in St. Louis?

Most contracts run about 30 to 45 days from accepted offer to closing. St. Louis has a few local quirks: some municipalities require occupancy permits or point-of-sale inspections that can add time if they aren’t scheduled early. I track those deadlines so they don’t surprise you.
