FACTORSDETERMINING

FACTOR 1: When pricing your home it is important to carefully consider top market value.Using my competitive market analysis tool, I will suggest your home’s bestlisting price. I sell homes HIGHER than the market average because I listhomes at the correct price from the start. Overpricing may seem like a good idea to some, but unless it’s a seller’smarket, the home will ultimately sit on the market and gain DOM (day’s onmarket), which is a turn-off for the majority of buyer’s.DETERMINING FACTORSFOR IF A PROPERTY WILL SELL OR WILL NOT SELLFACTOR 2:It is important to have your home ready for market on day one. I will helpguide you to make sure your home is ready for showings and online by:• Completing repairs that need to be done• Decluttering & removing personal items• Make sure the home is clean and smells fresh • Neutralizing spaces and walls• Freshening up the curb-appeal (Landscaping and Entry)HOW IT SHOWSPRICINGFACTOR 3:I offer SUPERIOR MARKETING TECHNIQUES to help get your home sold fasterand for more money than the competition by:• PROSPECTINGProspecting daily for potential buyers, talking with neighbors, our co-opagents and past clients. • MARKETINGThe second you sign with me, I go to work on marketing your home!COMING SOON MARKETING, ONLINE MARKETING, SOCIAL MEDIAMARKETING and PRINT MARKETING are all part of the success of gettingyour home seen by the most potential buyers, ultimately selling your homefaster and for more money.• COMMUNICATIONActively communicate with you through every step of the process.Diligently sharing feedback from showings, following up with agents afterviewing the home, and calling weekly to discuss the progress from theprevious week.

Factors such as mortgage rates, location of the property, and marketconditions are also determining factors, and may require your home to be on the marketlonger, which may require a price improvement after about 30-60 days on market.If your home is priced at fair market value, it will attract the largest number of potentialbuyers in the first few weeks. The first few weeks a property is on the market is crucial!If a home is overpriced it will attract the fewest number of buyers looking to purchase ahome. The majority of home buyers look at a lot of homes, and they quickly get a feel for theprice range that homes sell for in a given condition and location.ASKING PRICECOMPARED TO MARKET VALUE% OF BUYERSIN THE MARKET*MV= Market ValueWHENMOSTOFFERSARERECEIVEDWEEKS ONMARKET121110987654321PRICING YOUR HOMETO SELL QUICKLY

PROPERTY BROCHURESListing brochures in real estate marketing serve as a tangible, detailed showcase of aproperty, offering potential buyers a comprehensive overview that includes high-quality images, key features, and unique selling points. This tool not only enhances the presentation of the property but also aids in creating alasting impression, facilitating buyers in visualizing the property as their future homeand aiding in decision-making.

L I F E S T Y L E F I R S TMy approach centers on selling the lifestyle a property offers before its physicalattributes. I understand that people often choose a lifestyle first, envisioning the lifethey want to lead, and then select a home that aligns with that vision. To effectively communicate this lifestyle, I employ a blend of direct marketing,engaging video content, and active social media strategies. This method notonly highlights the unique features of a property but also paints a vivid picture ofthe life that awaits the new homeowners, making the property more than just aspace, but a key part of their dream lifestyle.

OFFERSPrice is just one of manyconsiderationswhen deciding which offer is best for yourhome. Here are someof the other factors that matter.A conventional loan is often the least complicated. However, there are FHA, VA, and USDAloans that may be beneficial to consider.The fewer contingencies on an offer the better. Shorter time periods are also valuable.A cash offer is usually more appealing than a finance offer as the seller doesn’t need toworry about the bank approving the loan. Assures home sellers thatthe buyercan gettheloan they need. Sometimes an offer comes in high, but the buyer asks you to pay a percentage of thebuyer’sclosing costs. You might need to close quickly to move on to your next adventure, or you might need toextend the closing to allow time for the next home to be ready. Choosing the offer withthe closing time that fits your needs will be most attractive to you. Of course, price matters too! If ahigh offerwill cost you more in closing costs, repairs, orother factors—then it probably won’t be the better offer.If the home needs some repairs, but you don’t havethe time or moneytodo them, abuyer who is willing to do them for youmight be what you need.

COMMONCONTINGENCIES01Inspection ContingencyAlso called the “due-diligence period”. Typically, the buyers will have +/- 7-15 days to have all of theirinspections completed by a professional inspector. This may include Home, Pest, Roof, HVAC, Plumbing,Electrical, Foundation/Structural, Pool, Land, Mold, and Radon Inspections.02Financing ContingencyAny offer that is contingent upon the buyer receiving “loan approval” prior to closing will include a financingcontingency. Typically, the buyer will have +/-45 days to secure their loan and receive the “clear-to-close” fromtheir lender. The common loan types are: Conventional, FHA, VA, & USDA.03Appraisal ContingencyClosing on the new home is contingent upon the buyer closing on their current home. Ex: Buyer submits anoffer on your home and includes a home sale contingency that specifies a date by which the buyer must closeon their current home. 04Home Sale ContingencyTypically, buyers that are obtaining financing will need to obtain an appraisal as a condition of their loan. Thismeans that the offer is contingent on the home appraising “at or above” the contracted offer price.

Closing is when funds and documents are transferred in order to transferownership of the property to the buyer. The escrow officer will look over thecontract and find out what payments are owed by who, prepare documentsfor closing, perform the closing, make sure all payoffs are completed, thebuyer’s title is recorded, and that you receive payoffs that are due to you.
