hire to have a positive home purchasing experience. They also know that a good real estate partner can make all the difference in assuring a smooth transition for the transferee and providing a positive perception of our region.

Real Estate Expertise
As our name implies, we are experts in real estate. We provide up to date, accurate, real estate statistics and analysis so clients can make an informed home purchase decision.
For corporations that assist with relocation costs, a wise home purchase up front will avoid loss-on-sale if that employee relocates two, three, or more years down the road.
We also provide extra legal protections for our clients with a special buyer’s addendum to the standard real estate contract. This helps provide clients with advantages prior to and up to the closing of the home.
Our agents are experts in the St. Louis metropolitan area, with a strong understanding of ever changing market conditions. We know and love St. Louis...after all this is where our agents have called home for many years. We invite our clients to be a part of this dynamic, welcoming community.
A Smooth Transition for Relocating Families
We understand the unique needs of out-of-town buyers who often have limited time to find a house, and who
have many factors to consider such as school districts, commute time, and lifestyle needs. It can be an overwhelming time for families and our goal is to make the transition as stress-free and smooth as possible.
Our agents are trained relocation specialists with our clients’ satisfaction at the heart of everything they do. From researching Montessori schools to locating tennis clubs, we are here to help our relocating families as they maneuver the details of moving to a new community.

Executive Relocation Frequently Asked Questions
Do you provide assistance in finding a school for my children?
Yes, we are happy to help families not only find the right home, but also the right school or school district to meet their needs and preferences. Moving a family to a new city can be a daunting experience, and at Waters & Associates we understand the pressures and decisions you face, and that is why we want to be your partner in this process.
We have a research department that supports our agents in researching and setting up appointments for interviews with school officials, at both private and public schools.
We also provide each client with detailed school district statistics to help familiarize them with every district in St. Louis County and St. Charles County. The data we compile compares districts on performance measures such as:
- average SAT and ACT test scores
- student-teacher ratio
- annual spending per pupil
- graduation rates
- percentage of graduates who are going on to college
Selecting a school for your child can be overwhelming, but at Waters & Associates we provide the data and the tools to help streamline the process and make you feel confident in your decision.
How knowledgeable are your agents about the various St. Louis neighborhoods and suburbs?
Our agents are skilled relocation specialists who are familiar with the real estate market throughout the St. Louis region. They regularly preview properties in different areas to stay on top of the market.
Plus, every month we review market reports with our agents that detail by county and by school district, figures such as number of units sold, average sale price, active-pending ratios, and more. Comparisons to previous years can be made so that we can look at trends and truly understand how well properties are selling and at what prices.
All of this data, plus viewing current properties on the market, keep us up to speed on market conditions and allow us to provide sound advice to clients as they search for their next home.
