6 Buyer Mistakes

Seller

“I met Ruben Muro when he was selling my next-door neighbor’s house here in Riverside. The way he responded and solved the problems impressed me! He was also able to … sell the house for the list price, that further impressed me! After that I decided that if I ever needed the services of a realtor, Ruben would be the first one I would contact. In late 2021 my other neighbor wound up being placed in a long-term care facility. I’ve never sold a home before, and it’s been over 50 years since I bought mine, but once she finally accepted the fact that she wouldn't be returning home, it was a no-brainer to suggest to my neighbor that Ruben should be the guy to market her home. I told her about Ruben’s success selling the home across the street from her, and she agreed to engage Ruben to sell her home. I became directly involved in the sale because the owner subsequently granted me Power of Attorney. The home needed a lot of work to get it ready to be shown. Ruben had people to help with all of the prep work and quickly got the house on the market. We discussed marketing strategy, and even though a turn-key move-in-ready home would be very appealing to many buyers, the approach taken was to spend as little as possible to make the home saleable. Shortly after the home was put on the market, the Fed started raising interest rates, and we quickly recognized that our marketing strategy might have to be adjusted to the reduced pool of possible buyers. Ruben’s insight and experience was extremely valuable in deciding what strategy changes would be most effective in finding a buyer while still retaining as much proceeds as possible. And it worked!! We just closed escrow on the home, and I am very satisfied with the service Ruben provided; his guidance was invaluable, and I gladly recommend him to anyone thinking of selling (or buying) a home. There are a lot of people out there with Real Estate licenses, but the license alone does not guarantee that they know how to successfully market a home and get the seller the best price possible. But Ruben does.” Read More ▾

“This is the 2nd home Ruben Muro has sold for me and the results each time have been outstanding. Once I decided it was time to sell my home I … met with Ruben and he had a schedule for selling my home in the timeframe I gave him. He even had all the tradespeople to help get my home ready for sale. He then sold my home within 6 days and I had several offers to choose from. Ruben helped me sort through the offers and helped me select the best buyer to work with and my home sold for $12,000 over the asking price, I don’t know if another agent could have done that. Throughout the whole process I never had to guess or wonder what was next, Ruben and his staff kept me informed every step of the way and I always knew what was next. If you need to sell your home and you want to work with a true professional that’ll have your back, I wouldn’t call anyone other than Ruben.” Read More ▾

“Ruben Muro, Realtor, Corona, real estate agent…look no further. On day 1 – Ruben Muro explained his marketing plan and process step-by-step and was spot on throughout the entire process! Identified … potential issues ahead of time and had an effective plan to address them (condition, roof, termite, tenants). Provided timelines for preparation of the home, then timelines for the sale. House sold in the timeline predicted – one week! Sold well above list price ($525K sold, $500K list). Communication was exceptional. Always provided us with answers to our questions; as well as communicated what to expect next. Provided updates, kept us informed, and guided us through the entire process. Ruben is honest, professional, organized and extremely knowledgeable while providing excellent service. I would highly recommend Ruben Muro to anyone selling a home.” Read More ▾

“We came into contact with Ruben after making a Zillow inquiry. He called us, requesting to set up a meeting with us to discuss the sale of our home here … in Corona. After conversing with him, we were very impressed with his real estate knowledge, marketing strategies, professionalism, and a genuine interest in us as clients and getting our house sold. He set up a time line for getting necessary repairs done, getting the house ready to be photographed, and having an open house. He taught us how to keep the house “show ready” for prospective buyers. He kept in frequent contact with us, keeping us apprised of progress with potential buyers. Even when offers weren’t materializing, he would still call us, reminding us to stay positive and to “keep our eyes on the prize” which, in our case, was our future home in Arizona. Escrow is about to close on both sides and we are on our way to our new home in Arizona. None of this would have been possible without Rubens hard work and dedication towards our goal. I would definitely recommend Ruben Muro Corona agent to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate!” Read More ▾
