Top 4 Tips For Sellers
- Hire a Full-Service, No-Up-Front Fee Listing Agent:
- Price It Right - The First Time:
- Market It Right:
- Insist on Financially Pre Qualified Buyers Only:
The prudent home seller will choose to obtain professional assistance and
representation. It is important to use a "Full Service" brokerage, not a discount
budget shop that simply places a sign in your yard and waits to collect a
commission. Do not agree to any up-front sales fees. Do not list with any
broker who will not put your home in the multiple listing system. A quality
full service listing agent knows how to help you get the highest price for
your home. Our company is the most experienced and results-driven real estate
organization on the Central Coast. Maybe that’s why we sold more of our listings
last year than any other company in San Luis Obispo County.
The most important marketing decision you make in the sale of your house
is its price. You don’t want to price it so low you give it away, but
you don’t want to price it so high you scare buyers away, either. After
a home has been on the market for a while without selling buyers become wary.
. . "it has been for sale forever, there must be something wrong with
it." …and sellers get tired…”I know it’s not
what we wanted, but we’ll take it.”
When homes are priced too high to begin with, they usually don't receive
a price reduction soon enough and eventually sell for less than they would
have had they been priced properly to begin with. The Solution: Our team of
professionals can help you price your home right, providing a Comparative

There is a general belief that advertising is the principle key in obtaining
showings of homes for sale . . . this is true. What is not well known, is
that the best advertising is not as readily seen by the general public. It
is the Multiple Listing Service. The MLS is seen by those who actually sell
real estate, Realtors / brokers / agents.
In today's market it is also critical to use the latest technology. This
means that you must have Internet exposure and a Realtor® willing and
able to manage your listing and sale accordingly.
When you receive an offer, you need to know if the buyer is financially able
to conclude the transaction. So, insist that the buyer present a letter of
pre-qualification for a loan or have them submit proof of funds if they are
a cash buyer.
