Meet Renee Terenzio Her Business Philosophy:
Professional, Personable, Honest and Confidential. Renee is a respected Real Estate Professional with over 20 years of experience, called the “baby” by colleges, in 1984, for being just in her 20’s when the average Realtor was, and is, 40 to 60 years of age and on their second or third career. She prides herself in staying technologically advanced, and enjoys applying cutting edge marketing practices. Being an affiliate with Sotheby’s International Realty has broadened her approach to Real Estate.

I enjoy my clients, and work for their best interest. It brings me great pleasure to unite families with a home that will bring them joy, and many fond memories.” “Most Importantly, I understand that it may be a family’s largest financial investment. Therefore great care is taken to insure we are communicating for a positive outcome, with your help I can guide you to make the right decisions for you and your family. Professional, Loyal, Confidential. We work together as a team, Always.” Experience: Renee graduated from Berkley College, New York, in 1977 with a degree in marketing and became a licensed real esate agent in 1984. She later went on to obtain her Brokers license in 1986.

First Time Buyers >The Seller May Pay
The costs of buying a home may be daunting. For example, you may have finally saved enough for a down payment on your first home, with a little left over to buy the furniture you will need. Then you hear about having to pay closing costs you weren't anticipating, and this may seem like a real setback.
One way to cover such a shortage is to make the sellers an offer that calls for them to credit you for some of the closing costs. As a rule, the sellers may pay a maximum of 3 percent of the sales price if the buyer is putting five percent down. If the buyer is making a down payment of 10 percent or more, the seller can contribute up to 6 percent of the sales price to cover the buyer's closing costs. Some items, such as prepaid taxes and the first month's mortgage payment, must be paid by the buyers. Sellers may also contribute to paying the appraisal, points, title insurance, settlement attorney fees, state or local transfer taxes and similar items.
Keep in mind that if the credit is included in the price of the house, the appraiser will have to justify the amount, based on sales prices of similar homes in the neighborhood.
