All rights reserved. 60% + 40% = 100% Out of town Local Buyers Total Buyers Demographics of Buyers The Fact Of The Matter Is… : The Fact Of The Matter Is… The best chance for selling your property is within the first twelve weeks. Studies show that the longer a property stays on the market, the less the seller will net. It is very important to price your property as a comparative market value at the signing of the listing agreement. The market is so competitive that even overpricing by a few thousand could mean that your house will not sell. Interestingly, your first offer is usually your BEST OFFER. Here are the reasons for pricing your property at the market value right from the start in order to net you the most amounts in the shortest amount of time. An overpriced home: *Minimizes offers *Lowers agent response *Limits qualified buyers *Lowers showings *Lowers prospects *Limits financing *Wastes advertising dollars *Nets less for the seller Copyright © 2007 Century 21 Real Estate LLC. All rights reserved. Slide 5: CLEAN FACT Most people are turned off by even the smallest amount of uncleanliness or odor when buying a home. Sellers lose thousands of dollars because they don’t adequately clean. If your house is squeaky clean, you will be able to sell your home faster and net hundreds, if not thousands of dollars more. If you are planning on moving, why not get rid of that old junk now so that your house will appear larger? Make more space. Odors must be eliminated especially if you have dogs, cats, young children in diapers or if you are a smoker. You may not notice the smell but buyers do! Most agents have a difficult time communicating to their sellers about odor. By employing me to get the most amount of money for you, the seller, do not take offense if I must confront you about odor problems. Copyright © 2007 Century 21 Real Estate LLC. All rights reserved. Slide 6: Copyright © 2007 Century 21 Real Estate LLC. All rights reserved. ACCESS FACT Top selling agents WILL NOT show your home if both the key and access are not readily available. They do not have time to run around town all day picking up and dropping off keys. They want to sell a home! The greatest way to show a house is to have a key! When your house is being shown, please do the following: Keep all the lights on. Keep all the drapes and shutters open. Keep all doors unlocked. Leave soft music playing. Leave the premises. Take a short walk with your children and pets. Let the buyer be at ease and let the agents do their job. Slide 7: PAINT AND CARPET FACT Paint is your BEST IMPROVEMENT INVESTMENT for getting greater return on your money. Paint makes the whole house smell clean and look neat. If your house has chipped paint, exposed wood or the paint looks faded, it is time to paint. If your carpet is worn, dirty, outdated or an unusual color, you may need to seriously consider replacing it. Many houses do not sell because of these problems. Don’t think that buyers have more money than you to replace the carpet. They don’t. They simply buy elsewhere. Copyright © 2007 Century 21 Real Estate LLC. All rights reserved. Slide 8: Copyright © 2007 Century 21 Real Estate LLC. All rights reserved. YARD FACT Your front yard immediately reflects the inside condition of your house to the buyer. Our area has a good climate therefore outside activities are important. People enjoy their yards. Make sure that the trees are trimmed so the house can be seen from the street. Have the grass mowed, trimmed and edged. Walkways should be swept. Clean away debris. Remove parked cars. These all add to the curb appeal. If a buyer does not like the outside, the person simply drives away. Leave Your Worries Behind withthe CENTURY 21® System : Copyright © 2007 Century 21 Real Estate LLC. All rights reserved.
