When the service is needed, we lend the homeowner funds to do necessary repairs and renovations through our HOMenhance program*. Created 8 years ago, we manage our contractors, so we do the bidding, hiring, and scheduling. We also have the home deep cleaned, including carpets and windows. No hassle and no money out-of-pocket before closing.

Agents that don’t put forth any effort or financial commitment and “just stick a sign in the yard” are causing the sellers to leave money on the table. Getting the most eyeballs as possible on your property…and the right eyeballs is key. On every property, we do the following (cell phone photos just don’t cut it):

Whether we are in a seller’s or buyer’s market, pricing the property correctly from the beginning is the most important piece of the sales process. As good stewards of your most important asset, it is our commitment to get you the most amount of money in the shortest amount of time.  The only way that can happen is by trusting our nearly 40 years of combined experience of buying/selling and investing in real estate full time. Even today, houses that sit are often overpriced or have challenges buyers can’t get past.

It’s not always about the highest priced offer. (Did a Realtor actually just say that?) It’s more about knowing which offer has the greatest potential “to close”.  Having long term and better relationships with other brokers and lenders gives us the keen ability to know which offers are solid.  In cases where a seller’s next purchase is contingent upon the sale of their own property, “closing” is extremely important.

Additionally, knowing when we can push the envelope in a seller’s market only comes with experience. The psychology behind what a buyer will do when they really, really, really want to buy a property will often work to the seller’s advantage.  Feel free to ask us to share examples.
