Do you have questions about that bargain tract
you've heard about?
 Better
find out why it is a "bargain." Is the seller bailing out because of an
environmental problem, an imminent zoning change, or threat of an undesirable business
development?
More
important, do you know how to find out?
We do. And
the good news is, in most cases, the research won't cost you at all. Even when there are
out-of-pocket expense advances, they will come back to you in deductions from our fees at
closing.

Do you have questions about the demographic makeup and forecasts for the neighborhood you're
looking at?
Sometimes
a church that is sinking in its present location desperately grabs a lead life preserver.
By the time they unpack and settle in, they discover racial, ethnic or economic factors in
the new location that renders vast numbers of the populace unreachable by their
congregation.
They
ignored, overlooked, or never knew about the "future factor" clearly visible in
the latest demographic information.
Do you have
that expertise available among your members?
We do. And
the good news is, in most cases, the research won't cost you at all. Even when there are
out-of-pocket expense advances, they will come back to you in deductions from our fees at
closing.

Do you have questions about whether your members
will go along with a move?
Even
when there are no opposing votes to a move, that doesn't mean the vote was unanimous. You
won't know that until you find out how many of those voting come with you. And help pay
for the move.
Whether or
not they do - and whether or not they create dissension during the wait - can depend on
how carefully you construct a communications program. Do you have the dedicated talent,
media skills, opinion research know-how and experience to do that?
More
important, do you have the objectivity it takes to really listen to those reluctant to go
along?
We do. And
the good news is, in most cases, the public relations program that results can use - even
enhance - your present communicates channels without putting a strain on your budget. Even
when there are out-of-pocket expense advances for our team, they will come back to you in
deductions from our fees at closing.

Do you have questions about whether you can attract the people who live there with your current staff,
programs and materials?
One
thing you can count on: that new neighborhood is different. You will either make some
changes or you won't reach them.
By melding
a demographics study with an internal public relations survey you can identify those
adjustments that must be made and see what you will have to do. Changes must come, just
don't let them be by surprise.
Do you have
the in-house expertise to do those studies?
We do. And
the good news is, in most cases, they will be covered within our basic real estate fees.
Even when there are out-of-pocket expense advances for our team, they will come back to
you in deductions from our fees at closing.

Do you have questions about how your prospects
there perceive your image?
Many
churches are surprised when they open the doors at a new location and find a cold shoulder
instead of a friendly hand of welcome.
They
shouldn't be surprised. For months the surrounding streets may have been clogged with
traffic and trash. They might still be resentful about losing the zoning vote. Or looking
across their back fence at your parking lot, or worse, your trash dumpsters.
Their image
of you might be formed by a drive by your old, slightly worn-at-the-heels facility, or
golf-course gossip about your last church fuss.
What do
they know about you? And how do they know it? Or do you know how to find out?
We do. And
the good news is that from the time you engage Moore to sell your old facility and
purchase or construct and move to your new one, there is a wonderful interlude of
opportunity to market your church and the image you want to the new community.
Also, in
most cases the marketing plan we work out together won't cost. It will pay off on
opening day. And continue to pay off. Even when there are out-of-pocket expense advances
for our team, they will come back to you in deductions from our fees at closing.

This
critical financial decision is a two-edged sword. Borrow too little and you force
last-minute compromises that can be disappointing or even devastating. Borrow too much and
you saddle future programs and endanger the growth you anticipate to help pay the debt.
Our handy financial calculator, found on this Web
site, will give some preliminary help. But you also should have an analysis by objective
eyes. When you use our real estate services, it is a part of what we do.
We can also
prepare your loan package. It's something we do all the time, and we know how to do it in
such a way that you're more likely to get a Yes from our lenders.
In most
cases, it won't cost extra. Even when there are out-of-pocket expense advances for our
team, they will come back to you in deductions from our fees at closing.

Do you have questions about whether what your
present congregation wants to build is going to meet the needs
of the church you will become?
Good
question and a vital one! You are about to enter what is potentially one of the most
disruptive periods in the history of your church. It will affect your church for a
generation. It could mean life or death. It deserves careful scrutiny, intense
deliberation, and prayerful thought.
It also
demands decisive action. It will be the result of all factors: determining the right
location, making appropriate choices of building plans, contractors, designers, engineers,
the gathering of funds and financing, and preparation of your present congregation and the
new neighborhood.
Overlook
one of these factors - or make a wrong judgment about one - and you could find yourself
limited by location, facility, debt, programs, or staff.
You can go
it alone, if you dare. But you can have the help of the Moore team. It comes as a part of
our real estate services, most of the time without extra charge. Even when there are
out-of-pocket expense advances for our team, they will come back to you in deductions from
our fees at closing.
