MISTAKES

I want you to have the best possible house-selling experience! As your coach, marketer, negotiator, and advocate,

 

I help you sell your house…

 

for top dollar,

in the current market,

on time,

to get you where you want to go,

with minimum hassle.

 

 

These tips will help keep you from the detours, delays, and dead ends that could keep you from success.

1.

GET THE HELP YOU NEED

Don’t try to do this on your own. My help and support will save you hassle, heartburn, and headaches. I’ll prepare the effective marketing tools to highlight the best features of your house and optimize your message in the four places buyers are looking. I will seek and defend your interests through every step of selling.

2.

CHOOSE THE STRATEGY THAT FITS YOUR GOALS

Don’t sell to an instant-offer buyer without understanding both the benefits and the costs. I’ll give you the tools to know which selling strategy is best for you. I will support you and boost your success in whichever strategy you choose.

3.

PREPARE YOUR HOUSE TO WIN

Don’t miss out on the profit that comes from buyers falling in love with your house when they first see it. Home selling is a beauty contest, and buyers pick the pretty ones. Don’t waste time or money on expensive improvements that don’t make you money. My no-obligation room-by-room review helps you choose which projects to do before you sell.

4.

START AT A COMPETITIVE PRICE

Don’t cost yourself time and money by starting with a price so high that current buyers pass you by. You’ll have the most attention from current buyers when we start marketing your house. I will help you price your house strategically to sell for top dollar.

5.

MAKE THE MOST OF EVERY SHOWING

Don’t let any distractions keep an interested buyer from falling in love with your house. You only get one chance to make a great first impression. I will help you make your house shine!

6.

ENGAGE WITH POTENTIAL BUYERS

Don’t make the mistake of waiting passively for offers to come in. I will work to turn lookers into buyers and I will try to get buyers competing with each other so you can choose the best offer.

7.

NEGOTIATE EFFECTIVELY

Don’t let your emotions keep you from winning. Negotiating for yourself is like trying to do surgery on yourself. Let my skill and experience help secure what is important to you.

8.

PAY ATTENTION TO THE DETAILS

Don’t assume the hard work is done once you reach an agreement with a buyer. With today’s complicated lending requirements and real estate regulations, it is imperative that we take the right steps to secure your success. I’ll take care of the countless people, paperwork, conversations and details to protect you.

9.

PLAN AHEAD FOR THE INSPECTION

Don’t get blindsided by inspection surprises and objections. Your buyer will thoroughly inspect your house, and surprises can kill the momentum we’ve worked so hard to create. If your buyers do have objections, I will help negotiate a resolution that works for you.

10.

KEEP IT ALL IN PERSPECTIVE

Don’t let the emotions and stress of selling keep you from enjoying the experience and growing through it. I encourage you to keep your balance, grow in the relationships you value, and find your true and lasting home along the way to selling your current house. I care about you and what you’re feeling, and my most important role is to take care of you through the process.
