Marathon Real Estate
Hello, my name is James Burton of Marathon Real Estate LLC. I have been in the business for over thirteen years. In that time, I have seen it all. No matter your situation, I can find a way to find the property you want and make your deal work. Using a VA loan for a condo, can be a 30 day process. I or your lawyer can send all the condo association documents to the VA Cleveland Office to review.

If all is ok with the condo association, it has reserves, and the restrictions will not impact a resale of the property, the VA should approve the complex/association. Knowledgeable and down to earth. Guided our experience based on our wants and needs and was a great pair of eyes when walking the homes.

Hello, my name is James Burton, I am a REALTOR, owner, broker, & vintner of Marathon Real Estate LLC. I have been in the real estate business since 2007. I have been in the real estate business for over thirteen years. In that time, I have seen it all. No matter your situation, I can find a way to find the property you want and make your deal work.
Explaining the entire real estate sales process in 15 minutes can be confusing. Most of my first time buyers take it on faith that everything will work out, if they worry about one step at a time, if they worry about every step, before even finishing step one(the offer), the process can be overwhelming.
Entry only listings, are often FOR SALE BY OWNERS (FISBO'S). The main issue is not the property. It is the seller. They may think they know the process, law, and how to close a property, however, there is no way to really know, if the seller is capable or not, unless they have a track record of doing real estate.
A seller can engage the services of a real estate agent to sell his property (called the listing agent) and the real estate agent is then the agent for the seller who becomes the agent's client. This means that the real estate agent represents the seller.

The agent owes the seller undivided loyalty, reasonable care, disclosure, obedience to lawful instruction, confidentiality and accountability, provided, however, that the agent must disclose known material defects in the real estate.The agent must put the seller's interests first and negotiate for the best price and terms for their client, the seller.
The FHA 203k full rehab loan allows buyers the ability to finance major or minor upgrades on a home without having to get the work done before closing. Consumers can not buy a home needing foundation repairs without a renovation loan that can handle rolling in of structural repairs. How many times have you viewed a property and wished you could replace the carpet or update the kitchen?

James the owner is an outstanding real estate agent.
He knows what he is doing and helped me deal with a very toxic and malicious seller. I couldn’t of had a better real estate agent. He also has a cool Jeep!
If you are a veteran James is very knowledgeable about the veterans home loan process.

James was always free to answer any questions I had about the selling/buying process and he went out of his way to contact the town on getting the last meter reading and fire alarm inspection. The marketing portion of my house looked amazing and he was able to get top dollar.
I would highly recommend him to any individual that would like to sell or buy a house. The process was extremely easy and I felt very comfortable with James leading the way.

James was recommended as a local Veteran owned company. He was very responsive and accommodating to our hectic schedules with requests to see properties. After many viewings, we decided to build and James helped walk us through the process. He was upfront, direct, and honest about realistic expectations which helped streamline the entire process. We would definitely recommend James if you are searching for a real estate broker.

James was an amazing person and a very friendly and knowledgeable person. I told him what I was looking for and wasted no time sending us options. Started looking in March and now in June, I'm in my cozy home. I appreciate everything he did for us and would recommend him to anyone looking for a home.

James guided me through the home buying process from start to finish. Super easy and stress free plus his knowledge of the market helped me secure a home on my first bidding!

James has to be the hardest working man in the business. From personally driving repairs needed to close on time to immediate responses to every question I asked (even at 6:30 on a Saturday morning). Everything I did not know from beginning to end, he was happy to explain. I am typing this sitting in my new home. Thank You!

James Burton was a true blessing to my home buying experience. His professionalism and knowledge was great. We were thrown curves and James was there to hit it out of the park! If you want a person who will answer your questions in the early hours and late James will and if he doesn't have the answer right away will get it done.

James did an excellent job attending to our questions and helping us find a home that worked for us. He was good about communicating things at all times of day and kept us up to date as to the progress of our new home as it was being built. We appreciated all of the insight he provided during viewings and selecting viewings that aligned with what we were looking for. He adapted very quickly as our requirements for our home changed. Overall it was a positive experience and we would recommend his services.
