Choosing the Best RealtorChoosing a Realtor is generally both the first and most important decision you will make in your home selling process. Frequently, a home will be your largest asset and you want to be certain that your Realtor has the expertise, experience and enthusiasm to be trusted with the preparation, marketing and sale of your home.
Making Your Home’s Interior Shine A study of local homes compared the sales price and time of sale of homes that were staged versus those that were not. Staged homes sold for approximately 5% more than those that were not staged and sold within half the period required for the non-staged homes.
Repairing / Improving the Right ItemsMajor repairs, such as adding a new wood deck, adding a room, or completely remodeling your house, generally have under 100% return on investment. It usually takes years before the expense of these items is recouped, if ever. The major improvements that come closest to having 100% return on investment are remodeling kitchens and bathrooms and possibly the addition of a second bathroom or a third bedroom.
In contrast, minor repairs that improve the appearance of your home can be done with little expense and offer over 100% return on investment. These minor repairs should be undertaken before you sell your home, as you
will typically get more money back for each dollar you spend on them.
Enhancing Curb AppealA buyer’s first impression of your home is the most powerful and lasting. If your home lacks “curb appeal,” potential buyers may continue driving past your home without even entering. We can help you determine which measures can improve your home’s curb appeal for a small investment of money and time, which will yield large returns. Any improvements done for resale should have the best return on investment.
Disclosing All You KnowReal Estate transactions require sellers to disclose all material facts that would affect the desirability of their property. Many lawsuits have been brought by those claiming that the sellers did not fully disclose all that they knew regarding a home.
Pricing Your PropertyYou really only have one chance to effectively price your property, and that is when it goes on the market. The level of interest by potential buyers and other Realtors is highest right when your property comes on the market.
A property that is under-priced will attract a huge amount of attention and a flurry of interest will develop, generally resulting in multiple offers and a sales price above the original list price.
TIPS for selling your home.
Page 7
A property that is priced at market value will attract a fair amount of interest and could receive one or two offers, probably selling for around or slightly below list price.
Marketing Your PropertyBy working with a Realtor you maximize your property’s exposure. Through online advertising, Realtor tours, open houses and listing on the Multiple Listing Service your property will be seen by thousands of people in a multitude of mediums.
Evaluating an OfferIf it has been marketed well, after your home has been placed on the market, it will have generated sufficient interest to garner at least one, and hopefully multiple offers.
Closing the DealAfter a contract is ratified (signed & accepted), the parties enter into a period of time where inspections are conducted and financing where is verified by the buyers mortgage company and title is readied for transfer.

BEFORE AFTER
Most buyers make decisions about the property they see within the first 15 seconds of entering the home.
You don’t get a second chance to make a first impression.
If your home is not “show ready” - it leaves “points of negotiation.” If the deck or the kitchen needs work, a buyer can use this disadvantage as a tactical reason to ask you to reduce your price. While other factors impact price - market climate, the condition of the other homes in the area at the time of sale - we believe strongly in eliminating points of negotiation before showing your home.
Even if they cannot articulate it, buyers know when a home “feels right.” Jay gets your home “ready to show” and “ready to go,” so it will look spectacular in the marketing materials the team creates and will have that “perfect feeling” when potential buyers enter.

Photographto Attract Buyers
The front shot of the house should be as powerful and dramatic as the picture can be.
Avoid taking vertical pictures...the horizontal format allows for bigger impact and consistency.
There are many options in photographing a space, look for the the most interesting view.
Show all rooms in a bright andinviting way.
Again, never take vertical pictures, they do nothing to sell a room.
A picture should show as many architectural elements as possible.
You need great pictures to attract buyers today and a great price to attract offers. This is an example of how to better photograph a property.
