If you are ready to sell now, or are trying to get a sense of the market and decide if and when you should sell – contact us for your Free Market Analysis.
Here’s what we do for you:
Provide all the information you need to know about the process. We will give you a Seller’s Package that provides you with an overview of the market conditions, the selling process, our marketing system, and the documents you’ll be seeing. There will also be information about valuation, escrow, the lending and regulatory environment and other details to help you get a clear picture.
Provide an accurate estimate of your home’s value. We will prepare a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA). This is not an appraisal but it is what we think your property might appraise for, what it might sell for, and what we think the listing price should be. We use a combination of art and science with proprietary Realtor tools, MLS data, tax data, public records, market trends and local knowledge to come up with the best number possible.
Provide insight regarding when you choose to list your home. We’ll show you your odds of selling at any time of year – in an up or down market.
Advise you about decluttering and what repairs or upgrades to make. We will help you understand what you can control and what you can’t that will affect the timing of the sale and your selling price. We’ll advise you on how to prepare your property for showings, photo shoots, videos and caravans. We will point out what needs to be moved, removed and make general decluttering suggestions. If it’s appropriate we’ll bring in our professional staging partner. We will discuss what repairs or upgrades you need to make and how they might affect the selling price. Some are worth doing and some are a waste of money. We’ll help you understand which are which.
MARKETING – We’ll market your property with our get-it-sold plan which includes:
A. A detailed story about your property …what sets it apart, what makes it unique, the things about it that people will love, the neighborhood, the development, the area and anything else that a potential buyer would want to know to make him or her want to see your property. We will use this in multiple ways.
B. Professional Photography – great shots at the right angles to take advantage of staging to put your property in the right light. A picture is worth a 1,000 words.
C. A narrated video of your home by our team.
D. We target qualified buyers (and the professionals who represent them) that fit the profile of someone who might buy your property through social media and paid online advertising.
E. We send out postcards and emails to our carefully managed database.
F. All our listings are featured on KW.com, exposing them to the world’s largest real estate company with over 150,000 agents and syndicated on over 350 different websites including Zillow.com, Realtor.com and Trulia.com to name just a few.
Schedule showings and collect feedback. We schedule showings, get feedback and advise you on any action that might be appropriate. The feedback will include what they liked, what they didn’t like, what you can control and change and what you can’t.
Communicate and keep you informed. We will call or email you – your preference, weekly with an update.
Receive and negotiate offers. Negotiation is part art and part science. Our aim is to get you the best price and terms to get your home or condo sold with the least hassle for you. By the way, that doesn’t mean just price. It means advising you on how to handle inspections and when to schedule the closing date.
Advise you during the escrow process once an offer is accepted. Once you have an accepted offer and we open escrow, our Transaction Manager will take the lead to make sure all the paperwork is done, all the contingencies and conditions are met, and the deal closes on time. Again, we do the work to create the least hassle for you. We will give you an update once a week that includes how the buyer is progressing on the loan and a lot more.
