You obviously want to sell your house for the highest possible price. You may even have a number in mind. But, how do you determine if that number is reasonable? You may be concerned that:

• If you list your house too high, few buyers, if any, will see it.
• If your price is too low, you could end up leaving thousands of dollars on the table.

Don’t worry. I’m an expert at creating a pricing strategy that will pique the interest of qualified buyers – and set the stage to get you the highest sale price possible. I’m also a specialist in the local market. I know what properties like yours sell for, and can get yours sold at the high end of that range.

Of course, buyers won’t pay for the sentimental value you place on your house. But special features such as hardwood floors, a newly renovated kitchen or bathroom, or a beautiful backyard patio can have an impact on how quickly a property sells and for what price. I’ll help you understand all the factors that go into setting the list price, and ensuring it is just right for the marketplace and your goals.

When it comes to scheduling, I coordinate with you to select days and times that are as convenient as possible. Obviously, I encourage you to be as flexible as you can, as that will enable more buyers to see your property. Weekends, in particular, are popular for viewings.

Don’t worry about all the details. I take care of all aspects of scheduling viewings, as well as planning and hosting open houses.

Although I do most of the work, there are a few things you can do to make viewings more successful:

• Make sure your house is neat and clean.
• Remove personal items such as family pictures. This makes it easier for buyers to imagine themselves living in the house.
• Find a place to go, such as a park or shopping mall. Buyers are more comfortable if they can view the property without you there.
• If possible, remove your pets. You can take them for a walk, or to a local pet sitting service or kennel.
• Ensure the walkway leading up to your house is clear.

When selling your house, there are few things more exciting than receiving an offer. That means someone is interested in your property and has prepared a formal offer to buy it.

Ideally, when you receive an offer, you will want to sell your house to that buyer for the highest price possible. In addition, you’ll want to make sure there are no potential problems that might prevent the deal from closing – such as the buyer being unable to arrange financing.

I realize this may sound complicated. Don’t worry. As your real estate agent, I’ll take care of all the details. For example, I will:

• Review the offer with you and explain everything clearly.
• Give you my professional assessment as to the quality of the offer. If there are things that concern me, I’ll point them out to you.
• Advise you on whether to accept the offer, reject the offer, or make a counter-offer.
• Prepare a counter-offer, if necessary, that gets you a better deal, without risking the sale slipping through your fingers.
• Skillfully negotiate with the buyer on your behalf, so you sell your house for the highest price possible.
• Prepare all the necessary documents, and work closely with the buyer and his or her agent, to make sure the transaction goes through smoothly.
• Communicate with you throughout the entire process. You’re never in the dark when you work with me.

There’s no doubt about it. Your real estate agent has a huge impact on whether or not your home sells quickly, how much you get for your property, and your experience throughout the process.

So you’d be smart to ask, “Why should I sell with you?”

The best way for me to answer that is in a Personal Consultation meeting. I will meet you at your home, explain how I work with clients, and give you an initial idea of what to expect in terms of selling price and timing. This meeting will give us an opportunity to get to know each other; for me to explain my skills and experience; and for you to ask questions and see if there is a good fit. There is absolutely no obligation to proceed.

When you list your house, it must attract the attention of qualified buyers eager to get into a property like yours. Otherwise, your house may take longer to sell and you may not get the price you expected.

As an expert in the local market, I can get the word out about your listing to all the right people. I know how to attract serious buyers – so a good offer comes in quickly.

In addition, I meet with buyers regularly. In fact, the moment your house is listed I get in touch with everyone I know who is looking for a property like yours, and encourage them to schedule a viewing. I also tap into my network of other real estate agents so their customers know about your property as well.

My job is to get the right buyers to see your house, fall in love with it, and make a good offer.
