6 of 10[number of problems we eliminate for you]

When It’s Your Home, Everything Counts

6 out of every 10 “fall throughs” (what the industry calls sales that fall apart before closing) happen as a result of an inspection problem or a low appraisal.

By eliminating those issues with our pre-listing program, we drastically improve your odds of making it all the way to the closing table without the last minute - and often costly - surprises.

Determining the Value of Your HomeA Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) is essentialto determine the value of residential property.Location and characteristics of the property are thekey elements in determining value. Therefore, thebasis for valuation is similar properties in your area.The market analysis takes into account the amountreceived from recent sales of comparable propertiesand the quantity and quality of comparableproperties currently on the market. The desired endresult is to find a price that will attract a willing andable buyer in a reasonable time.

Once the value of your home has been determined, you can decide on an offering price that will achieveyour goals. Generally, the price should not exceed the value by more than 5% or potential buyers maynot even make offers. Naturally, if you want to sell quickly your asking price should be very near thevalue.

The following are a few things to keep in mind about pricing:

v Realistic pricing will achieve maximum price in a reasonable time.

v Your cost or profit desire is irrelevant; the market determines the price.

v The cost of improvements are almost always more than the added value.

v Houses that remain on the market for a long time do not get shown.

v A house that is priced right from the beginning achieves the highest proceeds.

The Importance of Intelligent Pricing

Figure 1 - Percentage of Buyers by Asking Price

Figure 2 - Activity versus Timing

Figure 3 - The Effect of Overpricing

Determining the best asking price for a homecan be one of the most challenging aspects ofselling a home. It is also one of the most impor-tant. If your home is listed at a price that isabove market value, you will miss out on pro-spective buyers who would otherwise be primecandidates to purchase your home. If you list ata price that is below market value, you will ulti-mately sell for a price that is not the optimumvalue for your home. As Figure 1 illustrates,more buyers purchase their properties at mar-ket value than above market value. The percentage increases as the price falls even further belowmarket value. Therefore, by pricing your property at market value, you expose it to a much greater

percentage of prospective buyers. This increasesyour chances for a sale while ensuring a final saleprice that properly reflects the market value of yourhome.

Another critical factor to keep in mind when pri-cing your home is timing. A property attracts themost attention, excitement and interest from thereal estate community and potential buyers whenit is first listed on the market (see Figure 2). Im-proper pricing at the initial listing misses out on

this peak interest period and may result in your property languishing on the market. This may lead to abelow market value sale price (see Figure 3), or, even worse, no sale at all. Therefore, your home has thehighest chances for a fruitful sale when it is new on themarket and the price is reasonably established.

We can give you up-to-date information on whatis happening in the marketplace and the price,financing, terms, and condition of competingproperties. These are key factors in getting yourproperty sold at the best price, quickly and withminimum hassle.

Pricing Strategy

General Rules.Let's review some important considerations. There are certain factors that arebeyond our control and certain factors that are within our control. Those factorsoutside of our control are: the location of the property, the finished square feet andtypes of rooms and the amenities that are in place. Those factors we can controlare: the appearance of the property inside and out, how aggressively we market theproperty and the price, including terms. It is critical for us to accept those factorsthat are beyond our control and to focus on pricing and preparation.

Local Market Observations.Our market is currently steady. Properties are not moving very fast but they arenot languishing for months either. Given the current interest rate situation weshould continue to experience relatively low mortgage rates and thus the marketshould remain steady for awhile.

Suggested Price Strategy.My analysis of the comparable properties suggests a list price range in the $ 1million plus range although the appraisal we perform will confirm the numbers..

When An Appointment Is Made

Agents from many real estate firms will want to show your home. Please allow any agent who calls toshow your home at the suggested time. If you are not frequently available, it is suggested that you allowa lockbox to be installed on your door. You will increase your odds for a sale by allowing more qualifiedbuyers to see your home. You do not want to miss an out-of-town transferee because your home was notable to be shown.

During a showing:

v Open all draperies and window shades during daylight hours.

v Turn on all lights and replace bulbs with high wattage bulbswhere needed.

v Open windows one half hour before showing to circulatefresh air.

v Open all the doors between rooms to give an inviting feeling.

v Place fresh flowers on kitchen table and/or in the living room.

v If possible, bake cookies or bread to add an inviting aroma.

v The kitchen & bathroom should sparkle.

v Pets should be confined or restricted from view. Eliminate pet odors. Not everyone may share yourlove of animals. Some people may be allergic to them.

v All jewelry and small valuables should be stored in a safety deposit box or in a locked closet.

v Replace any items not included in the sale, or tag them appropriately with “to be replaced with…”or “not included” signs.

v Beds should be made & clothes picked up. Bathrooms should be clean, with towels folded andtoilet lid down.

v When you leave the house, please leave it as if you know it is going to be shown. You never knowwhen the right person is going to look at it!
