The relationship you will have with your agent during the course of the sale can be very close: it is important to select an agent who not only provides you the most professional service and achieves the highest selling price (that closes!), but also one with whom you feel comfortable interacting with on a regular basis.
Meet with your agent who can give you all pertinent information regarding recent sales in the neighborhood, current competing listings, recent sales, most current market trends, etc. The agent establishes a selling price that he or she feels comfortable achieving, and that you are comfortable selling for based on your specific time parameters. REMEMBER: the market determines what your property will ultimately sell for (either higher or lower than the asking price). It is therefore most important to select an agent who has access to the most far-reaching marketing systems to expose your listing to the widest possible audience.
Establishing all the facts and figures surrounding your home, floor plans, photographs, etc, and sharing the listing with all other brokerage companies, so that every professional agent is aware of the listing. The vast majority of homes are sold with the co-operation of 2 agents.
Selective, well targeted advertising is the key to success, letting as many appropriate buyers know about your listing. Your agent will identify the numerous options and how appropriate they are for your type of property.
Either in the form of open houses, broker’s open houses or private appointments. Most showings are through private appointments.
The strong techniques and experience of your agent can affect the selling price. Your agent will go over all the terms of any offers with you to reach a meeting of minds between you (the seller) and the buyer. Extra skill and communication is required when the sale is contingent on the buyer obtaining financing because a strong offer that does not make it to a successful closing is worthless!
The inspections and repairs are complete and you’ve moved out of the home. The closing will take place at the Title agents’ office where you will receive your proceeds and hand over the keys. Time to celebrate!
