Lynn started her real estate career in 1978 in a small suburb outside of Chicago, Berwyn, IL. This was at a time when there was no computerized MLS or adjustable rate mortgages and interest rates were in the high teens. Lynn came to real estate from a credit management background, so she quickly learned how to sell listings with FHA and VA loans, contract sales, and holding second mortgages.

1996 found her saying good bye to Chicago land’s cold winters and moving to Naples. Downing Frye Realty, Inc., a large independent real estate firm in Naples, FL, attracted Lynn to its company, where she has been happily working listing and selling real estate in the sunshine.

Lynn has been a Re/Max 100% award club member, a Realtor Associate of the Year in the West Towns Board of Realtors, a past President of the West Suburban Illinois Chapter Woman’s Council of Realtors. She has served as a Realtor Political Action Committee Chairperson, and participated on committees for Public Relations in DuPage County IL and the Naples Board of Realtors’ MLS. Lynn is a Graduate of the Realtor’s Institute, an e-PRO®, and is a Broker – Associate in the State of FL.

Lynn enjoys introducing buyers to Naples sunny days, sandy beaches, warm Gulf waters, and spectacular sunsets.

    Lynn H. Wilber, GRI, e-PRO Broker-Assoicate - Downing Frye Realty, Inc. - Naples, FL www.NaplesWave.com www.NaplesWave.com/NaplesBlog A professional Realtor® will look at the days on the market AND the price reductions to advise their Buyers. If there is a lengthy time on the market and no price reductions, this will tell me the home has an unmotivated Seller. If there is a lengthy time on the market and consistent price reductions, this will indicate to me that the Seller is motivated to sell. Sharing this information with Buyers is imperative to the decision they must make on the offering price. Attempting to put in a low offer on an overpriced home that has been on the market next to forever with no price reductions is almost a guaranteed no win situation.

Hey! What about some of the blame going to Realtors®? Buyer qualification means qualifying the Buyer about what they want in a home and how much they can afford. A professional Realtor® should be able to understand and explain different types of loans to their buyers. For years I have told Buyers, just because a lender may say you can afford a gazillion dollar mortgage, you might not want to spend that much money. I want them to be happy that they own a home and I sold it to them. I do not want them to curse me every month they pay their mortgage. There is truth to the statement that young people do not know how to manage money or their spending. I have been in this business long enough that I have sold homes to children of past clients. Would it surprise you if I told you that most apples do not fall far from the tree? Today if a young person wants to buy with no money down, they will have to enlist and serve in our armed service to be able to take advantage of their V.A. benefits. Realtors® TALK to the people you want to sell a home. Learn and understand the pluses and minuses of different loans. Realize that putting a person in the wrong loan may bring you a commission check but it will cost you thousands in referral business.
