Do I really need a realtor? A home seller nets an average of 14% more for their property when working with a Realtor, while still paying a commission. Overpricing a home can cost a seller thousands. Our team also helps qualify buyers and guides you through the process; staging, home inspections, contract negotiations, and closings.
Getting Started
My first step is determining the best list price for your home through a Complete Market Analysis. This is a report, similar to an appraisal, using statistics from recent market comparables and adjusting for your specific property. I then calculate the costs of selling – providing you with the potential profit you can expect from the sale of your home. Next, I will evaluate the condition of your home and property and together we decide what repairs or improvements should be made prior to putting your home on the market.
Home Staging
A staged home will typically sell faster and for more money. My team and I will stage your home- using your furniture and my staging props. The end result is a home that appeals to as many buyers as possible. A prepared and staged home will garner more showings and higher offers. I have been a certified home stager for over ten years and understand how to prepare your home to sell. Sometimes, something as minor as furniture placement can completely change a room – making it appear larger and brighter. Professional photography is the next step and is also a vital element in marketing your home. Beautiful photos and an engaging customized listing presentation for potential buyers along with a powerful online presentation will ensure positive results.
Marketing Your Home
Maximum Exposure for your listing through industry-leading syndication and social media outlets resulting in maximum exposure on all major portals and websites. More visibility means more prospective buyers.
Your home is secured by the Sentrilock lockbox system. Every Realtor that visits your home with a potential buyer leaves an electronic fingerprint on the Sentrilock system. I never use an unsafe combination box.
Marketing with virtual tours and custom brochures to detail your properties highlights. You will receive regular updates on your listing activity including statistics, Realtor feedback on showings and any trends affecting the current market.
When an offer is received, I will present the offer in detail and counsel through the negotiations of the offer, as well as the home inspection, appraisal, village or county requirements and all documents required. I will sit beside you at the closing table.
