REALTOR® Monty Iceman Records Three-Part Audio Series on Buying and Selling Homes

Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices REALTOR® Monty Iceman has proudly recorded three informative real estate-related segments for the NALA’s North American Speaker Series (NASS) to educate buyers and sellers of homes. The NALA’s NASS gives small and medium-sized business owners a unique platform to present their stories and industry expertise to a diverse, hyper-local audience through short, poignant audio segments.

In his first segment, Iceman, a Luxury Properties Specialist who works with experienced homeowners as well as first-time buyers and sellers, discusses ways to win in a multiple offer situation. “As a buyer, or representing a buyer in this case, I would recommend that they shorten their contingency terms, like the appraisal contingency, the loan contingency,” said Iceman. “The easiest thing for the buyer to shorten contingency-wise would be their physical inspection. Those types of things go a long way with the seller.”  

In his second segment, Iceman, one of the San Fernando Valley’s most successful agents, presents steps to prepare for the home-buying process. “The very first step a buyer should do if they are seriously considering homeownership is speak to a qualified lender who will take their information, pull their credit and will give the buyer a real sense of what they can actually afford,” noted Iceman. “In the long run, that saves everybody time.”

Finally, in his third segment, Iceman illustrates what sellers should do to prepare their home for sale. “The most important thing a seller can do when they’re preparing their house is try and put the buyer hat on,” concluded Iceman. “Step out of the seller mode, and go into the buyer mode. What would impress you when you get out of the car and walk up to the house?”
