About Me
Life Long Lehigh Valley Resident & Successful Full-Time Lehigh Valley REALTOR® - now at RE/MAX Unlimited, as well as prior to joining the RE/MAX brokerage brand. I'm now also licensed as an Associate Broker, not just a Real Estate Salesperson. See www.BenBakerREALTOR.com
I've got nearly 20 years licensed in the business, and highly believe the real estate adage "Location, Location, Location!" Work with an agent who knows the area! Just as importantly, focus on not just knowledge & experience, but also concern for your best interests. Interview, have a coffee/tea or even a meal with me and some other Realtors. Please don't pick a Realtor based on the fact that they 'appear' to be busy. Look at testimonials, but also network with your friends. Why pick a Realtor from quick surf on the web, or based on a site where they pay to play.
Buying a house is a long-term commitment and making a good decision for both your current situation and your future vision, are important to the process. Additionally, if you need a mortgage, please find a good mortgage lender. Don't waste money getting your money. When you get into it, make sure you look at enough homes to be educated about the area.
My family background is local. Father is from Emmaus (East Penn), mother is from Neffs (Parkland/Northern Lehigh), and Allentown (Salisbury). I live in Catasauqua, and RE/MAX Unlimited, has offices in Whitehall and Bethlehem. I've been helping clients buy and sell properties all across the valley, from Easton to Kutztown since 2004. I've got very high percentage of satisfied past clients, hopefully you may become one of them.
I have a BSME is from Lehigh University and I also have a Masters (of Science) in Organizational Development from St. Joseph's University in Philadelphia.
