Why Ivy for Sellers?
When we meet, I ask questions and take notes. For instance, “What brings you to the decision of selling your home?” “What do you want to do?” While the second question may seem obvious, it contains multiple nuances. One seller wants to sell fast and is willing to discount the price to do so. Another seller aims to maximize their bottom line.
First and Foremost: I Listen.
I Partner Proactively.
I know my business. I know our market. I do not know your objectives. Together we will determine price and market strategy.
I Respect You.
You are selling your home. This is far more than stone and stucco. This was the setting for your family story. Laughter, tears and heart to heart talks took place within these walls. Ah ha moments transpired. Life changing decisions took place. Hearts united and dreams were birthed.
Should you select me, I will treat your home with utmost dignity. I will guide you through the thoughtful process of presenting your home to total strangers while protecting your privacy and valuables. Instead of using a showing service, I insist that agents personally call me. I want to know who will be where and when for your well being.
I Prepare Personally.
Should I represent you, I will provide complimentary staging. Why stage?
A study conducted by Coldwell Banker, discovered two benefits. The first: staged homes spent half as long on the market as comparable non-staged homes. The second: in a robust seller’s market, staged homes sell for 6% more than comparable non-staged homes in the same neighborhood.
My stager will also address curb appeal. First impressions count.
I Market Strategically.
I do more than list homes, I market them.
What does that mean?
I Guide.
When I receive an offer, I immediately scrutinize all the details. I will formulate any pertinent questions followed by an interview with the buyer’s agent. I’m looking for clarity. I’m examining qualifications. I’m probing to find anything that is important for my sellers to know. I’m committed to make this first step a sure step. From this first step, I will provide a comprehensive step by step plan leading to closing.
If it appears that we might be a good match, please contact me for a face to face interview.
