I'll List Your Home, But I'm Not Going To Price It
That's right, you read that right. I am not going to pick the listing price for your home, YOU are going to do that. Why? Because this is about YOU and not about me. From the first meeting, you are going to see that this Orange County Listing Agent is going to present a package with your best interests at heart.
You want to sell your home? Ok....let's do that!
How? I'm the expert, right? I'm supposed to tell you what to do when it comes to one of the biggest investments one can make? I'm not going to. What I will do is offer you a complete package which includes staging, handyman services, video tour, aerial tour and the most comprehensive Internet Marketing package available. I'm going to offer all this at my own cost and with no long term contract.
That's right...I'm going to say it again.
I will pay up front for a stager, handyman, video, aerial, etc....a professional listing presentation....and you can cancel the agreement the very next day with no penalty and no cost.
Now you might be thinking, there has to be a trick or hidden cost. There isn't and you will clearly see this in the agreement. The commission? While I can't address commission in a public post, suffice to say you will be pleased, that is not where I make up the cost.
Now let's get back to the matter of price. If you've spent any time doing research on the Internet, you will see that real estate agents are always debating the "over priced" listing. Most of these posts are from the perspective of the agent. But I feel differently. If you are serious about selling, you are not going to want to be over priced, but on the other hand, we never want to leave money on the table. I understand this. While I won't tell you what to price the home, we will go over the market data so that you can decide from an informed position.
Price and market conditions are more than just comps. Those are only sold homes. We also want to look at the market trend; are prices rising or falling. We want to look at the current inventory and absorption rates. If your goal is to move in the next 2 months, we don't want to price the home too high if there is 4 months of inventory on the market. This gets into details, but this is the data you need to decide what price to put on your home based on your goals.
Why would I list your Orange County home with no contract and all that out of pocket expenses? Especially when you might over price your home? Because I believe that if I tailor my business model around the needs of the seller/buyer, then my business will grow. I make up the difference in volume. I will also say that this model keeps me on my game as well. I'm taking all the risk and in order to make it pay off (I don't make anything unless we sell the home) I need to fully service my client. If you are happy, you will remember me. Frankly, you will remember me if you are unhappy also.....so that's just not an option.
If this seems like the kind of service that you are looking for in an Orange County Listing Agent, please contact me and let's chat some more. You can see for yourself that there are no hidden gimmicks and the service I can offer will allow you to list with confidence.
