Sellers Guide

Sellers Guide

Selling real estate is not something to take lightly. However, there are some easy steps that can help you get the maximum return on your home.

Getting a Professional Realtor®

At some point in the selling process, most people consider selling the property themselves. While FSBO (For Sale By Owner) is not necessarily a bad way to go, homeowners typically do not get the same prices as professional Realtors®. Even after factoring the commission, the amount of work it takes to sell a home tends to make a Realtor® a worthwhile investment.

Pricing Your Home

After finding a Realtor® you trust, the next critical step is pricing your home. Look around at similar houses for sale in your neighborhood and price yours in that range. Of course, the interior and exterior condition of your home will make a large difference. For example, if you’ve remodeled recently or added new appliances, the price may naturally increase the value. Your Realtor® will use the MLS (Multiple Listing Service) to come up with an appropriate listing price; however, this will simply be a suggested price. The final decision will be up to you, which is why it pays to do a bit of comparative research.

Getting Your Home Ready

The next step is getting your home ready to show. Open houses are critical in stirring up interest to your home, but too few sellers really take the necessary steps to make their homes buyer-friendly. For example, repainting the exterior of your home is relatively inexpensive and offers huge results in terms of curb appeal. Inside, its best to make your home as free of clutter as possible. You may even want to rent a storage space for extra furniture and items–even your closets should look spacious. The offer(s) on your home will most likely come from an open house. After that, your realtor® will be able to handle most of the details, though the final decisions on price and sale will be yours to make.

The Listing Price

Pricing your property correctly: when selling a property, this is the most important decision to be made. We will prepare for you a Comparative Marketing Analysis containing facts and figures on recent sales of similar properties. Then, drawing on our experience and keen local knowledge, we will provide a professional evaluation of your home, taking into account current activity in your neighborhood and market trends in general. Together we will determine your home’s true value, arriving at a price that will attract serious buyers to make the best offers.

Market The Property

Web Based Marketing
With 80% of real estate consumers today searching properties online, we provide clear and accurate information to those consumers on the internet. On the internet, your property will be featured using photos and the latest map search and virtual tour technology. Our virtual tours allow prospective buyers to “visit” your home by viewing it online.

Signage
Ten percent of all residential real estate transactions per year are attributable to “For Sale” signs. With the seller’s approval, Florida Premier Realty signs are noticeably displayed on all properties (subject to community regulations). Our signs are highly visible, recognizable, and carefully maintained.

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words
So we use pictures, not only online and in print advertising. Our exceptional in-house creative team will also take high-quality photos of your home and produce a professional full-color sales brochure.

Sales Strategy

Profitable sales don’t happen by luck or accident; they are the result of a sound sales strategy. Every home seller should have one. Using our skills and knowledge, we will develop a strategy that will help you show off your home to its best advantage. You will benefit from all of our added-value services, including reports and feedbacks from qualified buyers, a carefully considered schedule for the holding of open houses, and an aggressive timetable for ad placement.

By creating a custom-designed plan for your unique property, we will ensure that your home is marketed in the most effective manner possible.

Information To Sellers

Getting the most for your home or property means doing more than putting a “For Sale” sign out front. In a competitive market where new homes for sale are added daily, your listing needs to be seen in a variety of places in order to stand out. And sometimes the right buyer is waiting out of state, or even in another country. To ensure sure your home gets noticed and sells without a hitch for full market value, consider working with a top professional. It could mean the difference between no sale, and the payoff you’ve been waiting for.
