research and experienced judgment.

Besides enlisting our help in checking out the current real estate market conditions and financing trends, the basic steps include:

� Measuring your home against similar neighborhood

homes that have recently been sold or are currently on the market;

� Determining what features make your house stand out among others currently on the market. After all, buyers are comparison shoppers;

� Weighing the spending of a reasonable amount of money on cosmetic fix-ups that might enhance the marketability of your house and earn the highest possible sale price;

� The right price is usually within 5% of market value (a constantly changing factor) and usually results in a fair-dollar sale within a reasonable amount of time. As we like to say, “Price sells”.

Is it ever smart to underpriced?

Setting a price below market value usually isn’t preferable because you may be losing money. If time is more important than money and you need a faster than average sale, you may consider setting a bargain price to attract the greatest number of prospects.

The chart above shows how asking price affects the number of prospective buyers who

will look at that property. From experience, we know

market value delivers the optimum number of prospects at the best price for a quick sale.

Consider fix-up?

In today’s competitive market, most buyers will not even consider a house that needs fix-ups. In contrast, a sparkling

showcase home gets top dollar when it comes to the

bottom line. What most buyers are looking for is an inviting model home. Buyers who are willing to tackle the repairs after moving in automatically subtract the cost of needed fix-ups from the price they offer. Either way, you save nothing by putting off fix-ups and likely slow the sale of your house.

Is your home exterior acceptable?

Your house gets only one chance to make a good first

impression. That’s why curb appeal is one of the most

critical points in selling.

Buyers are apt to fall in love at first sight, or not at all. If your home lacks curb appeal, chances are the first impression will not be counteracted by the most perfect floor plan or the most tasteful interior.

Spruce up the view of the house from the street, including lawn,flowers out front, a wreath on the door, brass outdoor lighting fixtures and whatever will enhance your home’s buy me look:

shrubs, shutters, windows, front door, mail box.

Don’t spend too much for upgrade!

While it’s important to fix whatever needs fixing to get your home ready for sale, undertaking a major project could cost more money than you would recover from sale.Spending too much on remodeling projects just drains money out of your pocket. If your improvements will push your home’s value more than 20% over the average neighbouring home values, don’t expect to recoup the entire cost. Some major projects, however, like replacing a rood, should be done if they are needed.

Sell your home yourself and ruin the process!!

Going it alone like General Custer could invite disaster.

Without a professional adviser, you probably won’t sell.

Even if you do sell, surveys show self-sellers often net less from the sale than sellers who use a real estate agent.

Selling a house is a team effort between you and the listing know, from bringing qualified buyers to keeping things on track to settlement.

Ready to show the house at anytime!

The presence of your family can make prospective buyers

feel like intruders. If you’re at home when your home is

being shown, be your usual friendly but low-key self

and keep children and pets out from underfoot. It’s the

agent’s job to show buyers what they need to see.

Buyers can better focus on the homes advantages by viewing them than by socializing. If an open house is scheduled, plan to be away from home, but let us know how to reach you quickly. When you’re not at home at other times, agents accompanying prospects will leave their business card.Please alert us afterward so we can follow up agent.

Be Flexible

No one wins If you enter negotiations with boxing gloves on.

Instead, approach negotiations in a positive frame of mind,not as an adversary of the buyer. After all, you want the same thing , a sale. Leave most of the discussion of price, terms, possession and other conditions up to your agent.
