Simplify Your Experience
From preparing your home, to setting the price, and showing your house when it is on the market, a Realtor will simplify everything. Keep in mind the right agent is often the key to a successful real estate transaction. Our qualified professionals will guide you through the entire process.
Pricing Your Home
Correctly pricing your property is vital. Price your home too low and you’ll lose money; price it too high and buyers will shy away. Your Realtor will be able to give you a Competitive Market Analysis for your particular property, which will help you determine the value of your property as well as advice on the condition of the present market.
Promoting Your Property
When selling your home, you will want effective advertising and marketing. From descriptive, colorful ads to internet options, our Realtors are able to attract potential buyers. Promotional campaigns work best when the home is priced right, the home is properly prepared, and the market is a sellers market. Other factors that would limit the affect of promotional campaigns would also be the competition and the financing.
Prepare Wisely
Whatever work has been done up to this point to sell your home, will only have an effect when a buyer walks into your house for the first time. Never underestimate the affect of positive showing. There are numerous ways to prepare your home for a showing.
Pre-sale Home Inspection
Buyers are going to schedule a home inspection, a thorough examination of the property, before closing. Scheduling an inspection before you put your home on the market allows you to take care of any problems beforehand. You will have more time to plan for any resulting expenses and be able to better ensure the quality of your home. If you choose not to fix the issues that come up in the inspection, you can adjust the selling price for those issues. This can save you time during negotiation because the buyer knows the issues have already been identified and accounted for. You are also less likely to overlook something you may be held liable for later.

A Team Effort
The overwhelming majority of home sellers find it advantageous to team up with a Realtor. Rather than attempt to learn about selling a home, most home owners feel that it is better to entrust the sale of their biggest investment to a professional. There are a number of complexities of modern Real Estate transactions that should be considered, not to mention the access to MLS, advertising, marketing and screening which are available to assist the seller. Advice can be given on the condition of the market at the time you are considering selling. Your Realtor will also be able to give you a Competitive Market Analysis for your particular property, which will help you determine the value of your property.
Money Matters
Today’s buyer is well informed and price sensitive. A property that is priced over the market can often deter buyers who are serious about finding a property. If the property is under-priced, it most likely will sell quickly–to the detriment of your net proceeds. Care and research should be taken when establishing the original listing price.
There are many factors that will affect the selling price. The following should help you determine the price you can expect to receive:
- What are the prices (listing and selling) of similar homes in your area?
- What is the size, layout and condition of your home?
- What is the location of your home, are you in a desirable area that is in demand?
- Does your home have amenities that are currently popular in the marketplace?
- What is the estimated appraisal?
- What is the experience of your Realtor?
- Is is a buyers market or a sellers market?
