 | DETERMINING THE VALUE OF YOUR HOME
|
|
A comprehensive market analysis is essential to determine the value of residential property. Location and characteristics of the property are the key elements in determining value. Therefore, the basis for evaluation are similar properties in your area. The market analysis takes into account the amount received from recent sales of comparable properties and the quantity of comparable properties currently on the market. The desired end result, of course, is to find a price that will attract a willing and able buyer in a reasonable time. |
 |
 | ADVERTISING AND MARKETING PROGRAM
|
|
Efforts to market your home begin before you sign the listing agreement. Our ongoing advertising and promotion program generates a pool of prospective buyers – one of which may be interested in your home. |
 |
 | HERE ARE SOME IMPORTANT FACTS TO REMEMBER ABOUT ADVERTISING
|
|
My advertising program, a tried and proven one, has been established from surveys and studies made by the REALTORS NATIONAL MARKETING INSTITUTE® and a survey made by the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® entitled “The Home Buying and Selling Process: 1987.” It is based on the experiences of the most highly successful Real Estate Brokers in the country. |

 | ADVICE TO SELL YOUR HOME QUICKLY
|
|
The property needs to look good from the street, up the sidewalk, on the front porch, throughout the house, in the darkest closets and even in the attic. You definitely want to give the impression of a well cared for home. |
 |
 | PREPARING YOUR HOME FOR SHOWING
|
|
It’s very important that your home shows well. We’re also aware that it can’t always be perfect. After all, you and your family must live there, too. Develop a routine that will allow you to pick up and be prepared to show in a reasonable period without duress... a 45-minute countdown, for example. This means that certain things must be done in advance. For example, beds should be made up first thing in the morning and dirty dishes placed in the dishwasher after use so that you needn’t rush around tending to this matter at the last moment. This way you can prepare for each showing in an organized, hassle free routine. |
 |
 | THE SHOWING
|
|
Everything is going to be fine. The agent has called in advance and you have made your last minute preparations as indicated in “Preparing Your Home For Showing.” |
 |
 | WHEN THE OFFER IS MADE
|
|
Presuming that the offer to purchase your home is generated by an agent other than myself, I will contact you immediately to arrange a meeting. The timing may be inopportune, but it is usually best to meet as soon as possible to consider the contract. Please note that when I, or a member of my staff, calls to arrange for the presentation, I will not be aware of the terms of the offer at that time. However, when I am updated as to the terms, I will present the offer to you and we will review all of the terms and conditions. |
 |
 | SETTLEMENT
|
|
Settlement customs vary widely. Your best bet is to consult with your agent and attorney about who is expected to bring what items to settlement. Most items will be sent ahead by your RE/MAX Sales Associate or arranged by the settlement attorney or escrow agent. You may need to bring only your checkbook and house keys. |
