Success Stories

One of my many

Success Stories

Dear Mr. Dent. My family would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude for making one of our dreams become a reality (to own a house). We thank you for your patience, professionalism, and knowledgeable ways of dealing with every need that we had when we were on the process of purchasing our property. From the very basic to the most complex part of the

process, you were there with us. My family, especially my kids Joshua, and John were happy to see you all those times you worked with us because you made them feel that you care for our family. Having you as our realtor is a tremendous blessing to us. May the good Lord continue to bless you and your family so that you may continue to bless others.

Joe’s NEW-Home Buyer Seminar

Everybody has heard of a new-build “horror story.”

1. It always takes more TIME, MONEY, PATIENCE than the original estimate.2. NEW construction does not equal SOUND, QUALITY construction!

3 TRUTHS about Buying a New 3 TRUTHS about Buying a New Home No One Will Tell YouHome No One Will Tell You

3. HIGH PRICED construction does not equal SOUND, QUALITY construction!

How You and I Will Work Together1. Call me before visiting & registering at any new home sales center, or talking to any builder sales rep.

2. To represent you as your buyer agent with the builder, I have to be present with you at the time you register with the sales rep, or give any information about yourself. We have to come in the door together!

3. Builders will only recognize & cooperate with buyer agents who register with their buyer clients.

“The construction of our home in Hanover has truly been one of the most stressful and challenging tasks we have ever faced. Our initial troubles dealing with our builder and the construction details left two new homebuyers like ourselves in a near tailspin.

Money Bombs!Money Bombs!


2. Can be (a) cheap materials behind the walls, (b) defective installation of good products, or (c) competent installation of cheap appliances, fixtures, components, in front of the walls.

1. Special scams or rip offs that can trip up new home buyers.


5. Hurricane Andrew August 1992 in Dade County Florida

3. Too many builders operate under the cheaper the better philosophy. The rush for profit can be at your expense.4. Home inspectors say one in three homes has serious flaws or code violations which don’t show up for years sometimes.

No better measure of defective homes than the “Hurricane Test”

Andrew ripped off the roofs of 100,000+ homes.

Much of the destruction caused by defective construction.

Miami Herald . . .

“The homes most damaged by the hurricane were built recently in the 1980’s & later. By contrast subdivisions right across the street that were of older vintage . . .”

“. . . often suffered LESS damage. The reason is clear: homes built in the last 10-20 years were riddled with defects that directly contributed to their destruction in Hurricane Andrew.”

By the way! Dade County FL has some of the strictest building codes in the nation!
