Information for sellers
You can no longer list your home with an agent who simply puts your home in the MLS and waits for buyers to come to them. Buyers are more educated and self sufficient than ever before. With the endless amounts of information available on the internet and the availability to look at thousands of homes without ever leaving the house, you must hire an agent that has a multi-faceted marketing plan that includes innovative ways to reach as many buyers as possible.
We offer an overall marketing campaign that is immediate, multi-faceted, and aggressive with the budget to back it. We use “state of the art” technology that includes a strong presence in the world-wide internet. Our advertising campaign is customized to each individual home and captures every detail to set your home apart from the competition. This includes extensive video virtual tours and photo galleries of our listings that are accessible through all major real estate company web sites as well as many well-known national web sites. This also supports our ability to connect with relocation buyers who may be looking at the Greater Seattle area market.
Our marketing campaign also includes extensive advertising in real estate magazines across the 3 major counties; King, Pierce and Snohomish. These magazines are widely distributed and reach thousands of buyers every month. We also offer a 24-hour toll free recorded message that buyers can call to hear a detailed voice tour through your home.
Once we are able to draw these buyers to your home, we offer them beautiful, customized, full color flyers, virtual tour cd-roms and other information for them to take with them to set your home apart from other homes they may have viewed that day. This aggressive style of marketing has continued to make our homes sell faster and for more money that the average competition.
After we have found a ready, willing and able buyer there is still much to do to ensure a successful closing. Of course, contract negotiations and experience play a huge part to ensure we have a strong deal in the first place. No two deals are alike so we will make sure the buyer is financially capable to purchase your home in the first place. This requires knowledge of financing and other issues that can arise so we can reduce the risk of buyers tying up your home during critical marketing time, just to end up terminating the agreement. We also will stay on top of deadlines and remove contingencies as quickly as possible so we can ensure a swift transaction and smooth closing. Our team handles the “40 steps and 20 people” your sale undergoes in order to successfully close. Having experienced agents to coordinate this process can make all the difference of having a smooth transaction versus a frustrating and unsuccessful experience.
