Seller Information & Guidelines

Seller's take note - we are in a Buyer's Market, no doubt about it, the buyers have the upper hand. The market is saturated with a huge inventory of homes and prices are dropping. With high supply and low demand, the prices have to drop to entice the buyers. There are other factors that are driving the prices down - it is harder for buyers to qualify for a loan - and the number of foreclosed homes / bank owned homes is rising.

You present your home in the very best condition possible and price it according to what the market will bear.

There are solid sales out there even now, but you as the seller have to work for them.

FREE CMA's ! Today's Real Estate market is changing on an almost daily basis. If you are thinking of placing your home on the market you must have a good understanding of what will sell for what price. I can provide you with a free "comparable market analysis". Using data from recently sold, and recently listed homes in your area, along with a review of your home, I can provide an accurate current price. An analysis should be comprised of many variables, such as location, neighborhood, condition of the home, the number of foreclosures or short sales in the area - they all factor in. It's very important to price your home correctly in this market. Even if you decide not to list your home, your CMA is free!

I am a "Broker Price Opinion Professional" and do BPO's for banks and lenders that need fast and accurate CMA's. I have the expertise price your home in this market and get it sold within your time frame.

FREE STAGING! Staged homes sell faster and on average bring a 6% higher price than homes that have not been staged. Visit my Tips on Staging a Home page for more info. I not only give you recommendations, I do the work too! I have an inventory of staging items that can bring out the best of any home.

Your home is will be featured on this website and the Realty Pro Web. Listed on NWMLS, RMLS, REALTOR.com, TRUILA, Yahoo Real Estate, HouseBuz, Craig's List, Zillow, and more for great exposure.

Full color real estate flyers are provided for those potential buyers driving the neighborhood. Open Houses are scheduled at your convenience.

WEEKLY REPORTING ~ While your house is listed, I will provide you with weekly reports. Feedback from Realtors that have shown your home, reports that show what has sold or what is pending in your neighborhood. And keep you up to date of all market changes.

THE SELLING PROCESS ~ My clients are never in the dark. Every step of the selling process is explained in detail. Offers are presented in person so every detail can be reviewed. I stay in touch with the buyer's agent, lenders, home inspectors and keep track of progress at the title company to make sure everything stays on schedule.
