Are you READY TO SELL YOUR HOME? Step 1: Choosing an agent

When it comes to selling your house whether in the Manchester NH area or anywhere the one things Sellers are demanding these days is Service. If you are looking to SELL YOUR PROPERTY there are some steps you can take in order to make your selling proicess easier. As a Leading Agent here in the New Hampshire area, I strive to make the Selling process a wonderful experience for my clients by working with them through ALL steps of the Selling process.

The FIRST STEP in the SELLING PROCESS is Hiring an agent to assist you. All agents are not created equal, so your choice in agents is one of the most important steps. You will want to hire a LISTING AGENT who is FULL TIME and WELL EXPERIENCED with your type of home and with the area your property is located in.

a. Why FULL TIME: You should choose a Full Time Agent because their sole job and focus should be on Selling Homes. The key to home sales is being able to be available in that short notice that a buyer may give to see your home and write an offer before they move on to the next home becuase they could not get into yours.

b. Why FULL SERVICE: With discount brokers you may get discount services. Nothing beats a full service marketing program working to market your home, attract potential buyers and get your home sold.

c. ASK QUESTIONS? Do they show they answer their own phone? Do they return email and voice messages? Do they show their own listings? Do they provide feedback after showings? Bigger is not better, just bigger. It is important to have an active agent who provides that personal service than to want a big national company just for their name.

In conclusion Selling your home can be a wonderful process. Avoiding agents who do not work with you through each step of the selling process is a good start. Most home owners whose homes do not sell during the first 3 months of the listing term do not sell because of price or a lack of attention from your agent. By having a Local agent who works full time, offers full service and knows yoru market, you can get the advanatge of being properly priced, properly marketed and with me, in most cases sold quickly and the best obtainable price.

Good morning, Scott.  More very good advice for home buyers.  

This month is a great time for home buyers to take advantage of the available properties and the record low mortgage interest rates.

Scott- You always have good advice, I particularly like bigger is not better, just bigger. The company name on the sign doesn't sell the house. Have a wonderful day!

AMANDA that is true. It is a good agent that sells homes, not a name... i hear it so many times from sellers who tried big and big did not work only to say "I wish we had listed with you first"
