Working with a certified Internet professional like Tim Cassidy offers you many benefits, including these...

More privacy

e-PROs respect your privacy! They respond quickly to your questions, but don't send you unwanted communication. And they protect your personal information.

Less hassle

e-PROs have access to the latest Internet utilities, giving you more information and making your life easier. These tools may include:

• On-line home tours
• Instant access to comprehensive neighborhood data
• Extensive property listings
• Immediate e-mail notification of just-listed homes meeting your criteria
• Referral networks and on-line forums, where e-PROs can quickly find information — even potential buyers — from other e-PROs
• Newsletters on current real estate conditions in your area
• Electronic faxes sent to you by e-mail
• Advanced software, PDAs, and laptops to find you answers on the spot

With electronic files, you have less paperwork to deal with. And since Tim Cassidy uses e-mail, phone tag is a thing of the past. The e-PRO streamlines your entire transaction, from showing to closing.

Less expense

As an e-PRO, Tim Cassidy has access to advanced technology that can save you considerable expense. You have more tools to find or market your home, so you're likely to get a better price. With on-line home tours, you reduce in-person showings and the costs involved. And by using e-mail, you save money on long-distance calls and fax charges.

Are you relocating? An e-PRO is ideal for you. With the tools to do your research electronically, you can make a decision on a home the first day you're in town — or without traveling at all. You and your family save on travel costs. And after you've decided to buy, monitoring the sale by e-mail saves you even more.
