When you have set up your appointment with your local Realtor, there are several numbers that you should review.  #1, Sold Homes in your neighborhood #2, Active Listings in your neighborhood, #3 Days on the Market, #4 Price per Square Foot, #5 Which home sold is closest to your home's description (your closest sold comparable) #6 Which home listed is closestto your home's description (your closest active comparable) #7 On the solds, what was the actual selling price and were their funds paid toward closing cost/prepaids.  If there are funds paid toward closing costs/prepaids, those should be deducted from the selling price for that home to adjust to the actual sold price.  If your Realtor is not taking all of these steps to accurately price your home, you may not be getting the most accurate listing price recommendation.  Also, your listing price should be reviewed every 30-45 days with you and your Realtor.  Adjustments should be made to the listing price based on current market conditions.  The Beaufort South Carolina real estate market is ever changing, so these adjustments are key to the successful selling experience.

The most important decision you can make in this process is the selection of the right Realtor to sell your home.  Make sure you select a full time Realtor like the ones at RE/MAX Sea Island Realty.  Visit us often at our website, www.BeaufortSeaIslandRealEstate.com and when it is time to sell your home, contact one of our professional Realtors.  Serving Beaufort County from Hilton Head to Fripp Island.
