Marketing Factors
1.The condition of the property
2.The pricing and positioning of your home in the marketplace

Professional presentation of the property can significantly increase the value as perceived by the Buyer.

Five Reasons a Property Sells
1. Location
2. Price
3. Terms
4. Condition of the property
5. The Agent you select

You control four of these!


We can follow up on prospects who have seen your home without them thinking you’re anxious.

The problem with a homeowner calling a prospective buyer "to see what he thinks: is that the buyer might get the wrong impression. You don’t want to appear anxious or as though you’ll take less money.

It is natural for a third party to follow up with a prospect.

Method Used to Purchase Home

The majority of buyers, four out of five, purchase their home through a professional real estate agent. In fact, less than one out of ten actually purchase directly from an owner.

This means that assuming your marketing exposure is as effective as the entire real estate community, your market will only be 10% of the total.

Attract potential buyers is the number one problem encountered by owners selling their own home.
