What the Mililani Hawaii Home Seller Wants

By
Real Estate Agent with Liberty Homes RS-#62825

A Hawaii Home Seller wants an experienced seasoned agent and well as a top notch agent who is unique with marketing ideas in Selling Hawaii Homes. Not all marketing techniques work in every neighborhood so being tailored for specific properties in different neighborhoods is a must!

So you have a Mililani Home you are wanting to put on the market. An experienced and knowledgeable Mililani Real Estate Agent is a must!  Other unique marketing techniques have been beneficial for my Mililani Home Seller’s and as long as the property is priced right and in a specific criteria for that special Mililani Hawaii Home Buyer.

So What Does that Mililani Home Seller NEED?

 

A Neighborhood Expert! Growing up in Mililani and for many years as well as a REALTOR-ASSOCIATE® with Century 21 Liberty Homes (located at 95-221 Kipapa Drive in Mililani Shopping Center) you can bet your bottom dollar that this agent knows her Mililani neighborhood!

Listing Appointment Book:  Everyone likes something visual and in writing so they can wrap their thoughts around what’s before them. The following items are just a few things I include in my listing booklet for our listing appointment.

  • Nice Cover Letter briefly explaining that I will listen to their needs and what specific services I will provide tailored specifically for those needs.
  • A detailed CMA Report with graphs, property info, pictures and more for comparable properties to the subject property.
  • Documentation for all subject property records such as city and county tax records, any pertinent information from the Bureau of Conveyances, documentation and printouts for all building permits on the subject property
  • My Crucial Strategy for Marketing Their Property  including the MANY online sites,  open houses, flyers, postcards, cd's of virtual tours, virtual tours and booklets with info for the home. 
  • Explaining the Sentrilock Electronic Lockbox for secure and documented showings. ONLY licensed agents and members of the Honolulu Board of Realtors® will have access to view with their clients.
  • Other flyers and information explaining Conveyance Tax, Harpta/Firpta Taxes, Escrow Process, Tips and Tricks to Get the Property in Showing Condition, Timelines and more!
  •  Listing Agreement and Property Profile Information, Seller's Real Property Disclosure Statement so the seller can start filling it out so they’re ready when the property is in contract, a sample Purchase Contract
  •  Seller's Estimated Net Sheet and documentation for most of the anticipated closing costs and costs associated with the sale of their home.

 

Property Booklet to leave at the property so when there are agents showing their buyers the property or for Open Houses the information is readily available.

  • Nice cover and a contents page in a binder to start with and all pages inserted plastic sheeting to protect the documents.
  • Seller's Real Property Disclosure Statement is a plus as it gives the potential buyer a bit more information on the property. A birds eye view from the sellers knowledge of the property will give them additional insight.
  • The Association's House Rules so if the buyer has any questions about the pet limit, where to BBQ and so forth it's right at their fingertips!
  • Any Building Permits for walls, alterations, extensions, major electrical or plumbing work etc.
  • Warranties or manuals for the property for the refrigerator, automatic garage door, sprinkler system, ongoing termite treatment, alarm system and so forth.
  • Floor Plans, extra pictures, flyers and so forth are all added to the pocket of the booklet and I stand it up so they can flip right through it. (flyers in the front inside pocket, buyer/seller brochures in the back pockets along with floor plans to take with)

These are just a few examples what the Hawaii Home Seller wants and NEEDS when they put their home on the market for sale. And this is just the beginning. When the home is in contract then the whole process begins and this agent is right there beside you to walk you through the process as well.

 

The Hawaii Home Seller wants all of this…and more.

This is what this agent provides….and then some.

You have outlined all the essential components of the right agent to help sell a Mililani home. This would make a great pre-listing kit marketing if you aren't already using is that way.
