Amazing Service!
I met Rosemary through RISMedia's Top 5 in Real Estate Network, of which she is a charter member and even though I knew she was a skilled and experienced professional in every sense of the word, she blew me away every step of the way with this sale and exceeded my expectations with her expertise, caring guidance during an emotional time for the family, negotiation skills and amazing follow through with every buyer agent who walked through the door. While I was living on the East Coast during the sale period and the home was vacant in Illinois, Rosemary was personally on top of every last detail from the moment we sat down at the table with my friend weeks before she passed away to the final closing. Rosemary was able to guide me through the entire process insured the home was ready to show at all times and made excellent suggestions regarding things I should consider while representing an estate including appraisers, local vendors for home repairs, home staging tips and legal issues. Rosemary and her team communicated with me regularly on the phone and via email and through easy to view online reports, so I was always up to date on all showings, feedback, and suggestions. The entire Rosemary West Team was absolutely amazing and should be commended for a job well done.

Buying Land and New Construction >Buying Property to Build
The ideal piece of land cannot be purchased without due diligence. Say you notice a lot for sale in a suburban area that looks like a perfect place to build your dream home. Buying undeveloped land can provide an opportunity to build a house that will meet your needs, but you will need certain information before you sign on the dotted line.
Most suburban areas have zoning regulations which govern the type of structure that can be erected, the dimensions, and even the material used on the exterior. Historic preservation groups work with builders in many areas to ensure that any new construction fits in with the existing buildings. If you want to build out of the city limits, check the availability of public utility services and the cost of bringing those services to the site. Local planning and zoning boards can provide you with information about proposed development that could change your quiet country lane into a busy street.
It is a good idea to consult an architect and a zoning expert to confirm that your vision will work on the property you have selected.
