Home Selling Process

Each owner, home, neighborhood and town is different. So, should not each marketing strategy when selling a home be unique as well? Every situation requires a customized analysis of the seller’s property. Your home must be presented in the best possible light across a multitude of marketing mediums. Technology has changed the behavior of buyers and one must leverage this change. The home presentation must “Pop” in order to attract the most attention as well as maximum interest. Staging consultations and professional photography are just a few of the services which set the stage to draw as many viewers as possible to your property. While there are many variables, one thing will remain constant: my dedication to delivering quality and excellence with every transaction.

There are both general and specific factors that influence the sale of your home. Location, market conditions and competition are general while listing price, terms offered, condition of property, promotion & ease of showing are specific. To get the best price obtainable for your property all the general factors that influence the sale must be considered. Only the specific factors are within our control.

While technology has revolutionized both the buying and selling process it cannot replace the basics involved with the successful marketing of your home: Presentation, Pricing, Negotiation and Commitment.

Once we have a ratified contract I will make sure that the process moves along according to the dates and terms specified. You will be made aware of any concerns and change requests at the earliest possible time.
