Selling your home can be an exhausting and worrisome experience. Last-minute walk-throughs, inconvenient calls, hopes raised by a prospective buyer and then dashed as they continue on their way and the possibility of being stuck with two mortgages!

Perhaps you've marketed your home with a real estate agent who made attractive promises only to be sorely disappointed when your home did not sell. Or maybe you've tried to market your home "For Sale, By Owner" only to be met with frustration having to deal with unqualified buyers and absurdly low offers. If you're not prepared, you could end up losing hundreds and even thousands of dollars in profit.

When you're ready to place your home on the market, I invite you to give me a call. I will help you understand the process and details of selling a home. I will show you why it takes much more than simply putting a sign in the yard. I will explain all the factors that will affect your profit. I want you to be as informed as possible so you can make the absolute best business decision.

After all, the sale of your home is a business decision - be prepared!

My main focus is primarily the Kansas City North areas of Clay and Platte Counties.  Having said that, I have listed and sold homes in many other areas of the greater Kansas City area too, but ideally would say that I'm best known for the Northland communities.

I'm currently a committee member of the Keller Williams, Northland Partners ALC (agent leadership council) and have taught classes in our office on Marketing and Agent to Agent Referrals plus am currently preparing to teach classes on Negotiations and Photography for Real Estate.

I have extensive knowledge and experience with new contruction homes and have a CSP (certified new homes sales professional) designation from the National Association of Home Builders http://www.nahb.org/

Although I do handle just about any price range in the Kansas City area, I would honestly say that I shine the most working with upscale, premium properties.  My connections for financing these homes and experience in working with these type of sellers and buyers puts everyone at ease througout the entire transaction.

A considerable amount of my business is also from country properties in the 3 to 40 acre range.  There are many different things that differenciate a "city" property from something in the country and I believe it's critical to work with a real estate agent that understands these issues and can protect his clients both on the seller and buyer sides of the transaction.

Lastly, one of my favorite types of buyers are the relocation clients. I love working with them and have been told I give them a sense of comfort in helping them find the right homes and making such an important decision.  See my testimonials for some examples.

 New Construction (August 2007):
Ron, I was talking to the builder this morning and I thought you might like to hear what he said about you. He said, "You've got a good Realtor working for you. Ron does exactly what he should be doing and follows up with EVERYTHING. Most of the time I never hear from the buyers Realtor until the very end when they show up to get paid." - Jonathan Whistman

1st Time Home Buyer (July 2007):
This process was actually much easier than I had anticipated and that has been because of you Ron. I will definitely recommend you to anyone I know that is going through the process of buying and selling a home.  -  Blake & Jennifer Hearson

Cerner Corporation transfer (April 2006):
I do appreciate your advice and everything you've done for me these last few months.  You have made this stressful process a lot easier for me.  Moving from South Carolina to take a new job at Cerner was enough to make me wonder if I was doing the right thing, but now that I've found the perfect home, I feel much more comfortable with living in the Kansas City area.  -  Keisha Jones


Banta Corporation transfer (May 2006)
Just wanted to thank you again for all your help in getting me integrated into the Kansas City area.  It's much different from Phoenix, but I'm really starting to like it.  I really love my neighborhood and as the movers were unloading me this last weekend I had the opportunity to meet several of the neighbors.  I guess some of them have had difficulties with their real estate agents in the past and I told them how smoothly mine went and how you took care of everything.  - Jody Howard


Morrow Construction transfer (July 2006)
We LOVE the new house and still can't believe what a great deal we got on it.  I wasn't sure if you've noticed but that house right next door to us has a "for sale" sign in the yard.  The owner just put it on the market and it's priced about $20,000 more than what we bought our home for!  Jessica is bragging to all of her family about what a tough negotiator we had for a Realtor.  After the first phase of construction is completed, we'll be bringing in more people from Atlanta.  I'm sure at least a few of them will want to buy homes here and I'll be sure to give them your number.  - Kim Hamrick
