Kevin Crampton Midland's Real Estate Educator

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers about buying and selling in the Tri-Cities.

Do I have to pay to work with you as a buyer?

Buyer representation and how it's paid has changed across the industry. Kevin will walk you through exactly how his representation works and what, if anything, you pay — in writing, before you commit to anything.

How do I know what my home is worth?

Online estimates are a starting point, not an answer. Kevin prepares a real estimate from recent local sales and your home's specific condition and features. You can request one on the What's My Home Worth page.

What areas do you serve?

Kevin works throughout the Tri-Cities — Midland, Bay City, and Saginaw — and the surrounding communities.

What does a home inspection actually cover?

An inspection reviews the major systems and visible condition of a home, but it has real limits. Kevin's video library and blog break down what an inspection does and doesn't catch so you know what you're getting.

Should I buy or sell first?

It depends on your finances, the local market, and your tolerance for moving twice. Kevin will lay out the trade-offs for your situation rather than push a one-size-fits-all answer.

How do I get started?
