THINGS WE WILL NOT DO!!!

We will not lie- We are brutally Honest

  1. We won’t buy the listing- Meaning we won’t lie on value. You will have all the past sales information to price the home to sell.

  2. We aren’t Looking for FREE ADVERTISING. This goes with # 2. We don’t want to use our front your sign like our own personal billboard, for us to collect leads and not sell your home.

  3. We won’t disappear - Communication - You will get a weekly update & phone call. This will include how many times viewed, interest, feedback, interest & possible offers

  4. We won’t confuse you - When we meet, weo’t bring a large stack of paperwork, We will do everything live & in Real-Time, pulling all sales data in front of you.

  5. Contract - We won’t lock you into a contract. We provide what essentially a 1-Day Listing Contract.



Now Let’s Get Started

Either your agent is sitting with you; Or you have an appointment, and you will an agent sitting next to you soon; or you are inquiring and we will meet soon.



We are going to walk the home (All By Ourselves)


ALL BY OURSELVES - We want to get the perspective of the home as a potential buyer, inspector, or appraiser.


We are going to walk the outside of your property, view the roof, foundation, landscaping, ect, taking notes.


We will go thru the inside of the home, making notes of upgrades, items in need of repair,& any questions we may have.


Once we are done, you will have the opportunity to show us to be sure we haven’t missed anything?


We will also ask you to confirm that PRD DATA is CORRECT.


NOW WE ARE GOING TO GO OVER COMPARABLES

Info on how an appraiser values homes.

An appraiser is going to need 3 comparable properties to value your home.


An appraiser is going to use recent sales . Past 180 days of similar architect (ranches to ranches, colonials to colonials, ect)


An appraiser is going to get as many comps as possible in your direct neighborhood to come up with 3 comps, to use.


If an appraiser can’t find 3 comps in your neighborhood, or you have a specialty situation. They will go out to .5 mile radius saying in the same city first then attempting to stay in the same school district.

They take into consideration new upgrades, updates, additions, age of roof, finished basement,additional land, ect

The Agent will go over all the pictures, details & important information of all comparables to value your home.

PRICE YOUR HOME TO SELL

THE AVERAGE TIME ON THE MARKET IS 30-45 DAYS.



You and your agent are going to price your home to sell, based on the comparables, upgrades & an acceptable price for both you & the listing agent.
