Every Job Requires Specific Skills and Knowledge To Do It Well!

Every job requires specific skills and knowledge to do it well.

You may reflect on that statement from the perspective of your own job, or the jobs of people you know. You know that skilled professionals put in hours, months and years learning to do a job well. It may have required advanced education and multiple degrees, too. It always requires thought, analysis and work.

Selling a house requires specific knowledge and skills in 3 keys areas:

 1. Pricing  2. Marketing  3. Managing the transaction

If your house has been on the market for 3 or 4 weeks without an offer, it means one of two things. Either buyers aren't interested in it at the price or condition reflected, or they don't even know it's on the market.

Time and again I see houses just sitting on the market with a sign in front of the house reminding us all of the fact that it's still "For Sale". It is frustrating because there are usually some very obvious reasons the house hasn't sold.

If you want to get your home sold, I would be happy to work with you.

Here is a list of what I bring to my clients:

1. A full market analysis of your house to help you understand how it compares to similar homes that have sold recently. This will help us determine the right market price for your home.

2. Photos and details of the properties that are like yours and are currently on the market. I will explain the absorption rate so you know how to position your house properly.

3. My detailed, 8-step marketing plan so buyers will find your house from their internet search. I want your property information and photos found, not an agency website.

4. Suggestions for staging and repairs that can make your home more appealing to buyers.

5. A list of anticipated seller's expenses so there are no surprises for you on the day of the closing.

6. A professional floor plan with room measurements so buyers can get a feel for the layout even before they see your home.

7. High quality photos and videos that highlight the features of your home so buyers want to come see it in person. If sellers could see how their homes appear on the internet many of them would cringe. If a buyer doesn't like the photos they will not come see your home.

8. A specific plan for how I manage the transaction to make sure that necessary forms are completed and commitment dates are met by the buyers.

9. "Just Listed" postcards mailed to homeowners on neighboring streets because other homeowners know people who want to live in your neighborhood. If you live in Sharon MA you've probably received one of my cards, too.

10. Scheduling showing appointments and getting follow up from buyer's agents so you can hear what buyer's are saying about your house.

11. Communicating with the Department of Public Works and the Fire Department to get the final documentation you need prior to closing.

12. Recommendations for any service professionals you may need from contractors to attorneys. 

This is my full-time job and my full-time commitment to get your home sold.
