Keys to Success
Please read each item in this list, it will help you sell your home and make your life easier.
- Price the home right based on location and condition. Over pricing is always a bad idea.
- Pay a fair buyer’s agent commission; we recommend 2.5%-3%. Start fair - local realtors will see the commission day 1.
- Choose a title company or attorney before you have an offer. We can refer one if need be. Ask them to give you a preliminary Settlement Statement so you are aware of all the possible charges and have a good estimate of your proceeds form the sale.
- Use Showing Assist (available through us) to give Realtors the easiest possible way to show your home. This is an upgrade on most packages well worth the investment.
- Do not try to talk your home up to potential buyers simply let them view the house and answer there questions directly and honestly.
- Once you have accepted an offer send that complete offer to us with 48 hours to avoid fines. Those fines are passed along to you the seller/owner per the listing agreement.
- Provide us with the title company or Attorney handling the transactions contact information, so we can stay in compliance and avoid fines.
- Once you close, send us a copy of the closing disclosure/settlement statement within 48 hours of closing to avoid fines.
- Refer Us to a friend, family member or co-worker. This is a key to our success.
