Home Value Report

"Frances did a fantastic job of marketing (including a drone video, 3D video tour, and still shots) and selling my son's home. She is there for you from the beginning to the end. My son encountered a situation which could have jeopardized the sale of the home, but Frances helped him navigate the situation and the house closed on time! I highly recommend Frances as a realtor, and would definitely use her if I need to sell my home. We greatly appreciate her honesty, enthusiasm, hard work, and ability to navigate the sale of a home."

To Get You the Most for Your Investment We Focus on Four Things

Pricing

Marketing

Negotiations

Condition of the Property

Pricing Your Property

Value: Don’t trust Zillow, Trulia, Zestimate or other Real Estate marketing platforms or your tax value. These programs don’t have all the information needed to provide your home with its accurate and highest value. These sites only see what has been publicly recorded. For example, if you purchased your home with the basement unfinished, and you finished the basement without pulling a permit, then those public sites wouldn’t value your home with the finished basement included. Our local professional would tour your home and notice the unrecorded upgrades and run a detailed analysis in order to make sure your home is priced accurately for the current market. We will capture all your home's value!

Timing: There are drastic differences in the numbers of showings, multiple offer potential, and even escrow timelines depending on which day and week you choose to list your property. We will discuss all these factors with you in order to make sure your house hits the market at exactly the right time! Listing at the nonoptimal time can cost you thousands of dollars in potential profit. People think you have to list in spring or summer. This is not true! Let’s talk more about why listing in winter can get you more profit!

We are always happy to create a Comparative Market Analysis to help you discover your property value. We will also generate an Estimated Net Sheet so that you can see every line item and cost involved with selling your property as well as your potential bottom line profit. Pricing is another important factor.

Negotiations

There are many things to consider when choosing the best contract. The offer price, dates, deadlines for your timeline, appraisals or the lack of appraisals, inspections or the lack of inspections, insurance options, loan type and more. For example, the highest dollar offer may result in a lower net profit at the closing table. The following are just a few scenarios that can be costly to the seller ultimately reducing the profit:

An offer with a very high purchase price may have provisions for inspections with repairs that result in out of pocket expenses for the seller. In some cases it is better to accept the offer for a little less, no provisions for inspections and no repair costs for the seller. We look at the bottom line and what your take home will be to get you the largest profit!
The offers To Buy and Sell Real Estate will articulate what loan type will be used for the transaction. Some of these are FHA, VA, Conventional, Cash and more. These loan types have different governing rights and laws that may result in lowering a contracted offer price if the appraisal comes in low. Other loan types allow the opportunity to ask the buyer to bring the difference in cash to the closing not requiring you to lower the price or terminate the contract. Our real estate agent will walk you through the offers to help you find the offer with the best loan type, purchase price and provisions to meet your personal goals and highest profit and equity gain. It’s not just the purchase price you want to focus on but rather your final net profit. To speak to a loan specialist click on my resources page here or find one on Google.
The possession and closing dates in the Contract to Buy and Sell Real Estate can result in a savings or loss. Depending upon your calendar goals you may want a sooner or later closing. When looking at your offers, you will want to consider the suggested possession date and closing dates. These dates may be accepted as written in the offer or you may change them prior to accepting the offer. For example: If you have a new home you are moving into on June 15th you may want to make sure the closing and possession dates for your offer are within a few days of June 15th to avoid the cost of temporary housing, storage of your personal property or even double payments on two properties; the home you are selling and the home you are purchasing. This will all affect your net profit. As you can see there are many things to negotiate within a contract to help you find YOUR HIGHEST NET PROFIT ! We will help you with this when choosing from the numerous offers we receive for your property.

We are expert real estate agents skilled at reviewing the contracts to meet your specific needs so you walk away with the LARGEST equity check when it’s all said and done!

Condition

Some services we may provide or coordinate to optimize the condition of your property:

Frequently Asked Questions

Decluttering and Depersonalizing

Buyers want to imagine the property as theirs when touring homes. By removing your personal items, the Buyers can imagine the home as theirs and fall in love with it. We want them to have the warm fuzzy feeling! Knickknacks are a distraction from the floor plan and the use of space for the Buyers' furniture. By moving furniture around we are able to make a room feel larger or bring attention and drama to a unique home attribute such as a beautiful fireplace.

Small Repairs

It is important that a property appears to be in good working condition. Our team will search your property for small repairs to fix prior to showing the property. We don’t want Buyers to see dripping sinks, running toilets or doors that don’t lock. When this happens, they imagine the property will require expensive repairs and will lower the offer price. We get ahead of the normal household repairs so Buyers can plan a stress-free, move-in ready property.

Frequently Asked Questions

Cleaning

A clean property is important for the obvious and not-so-obvious reasons. For example, if carpets are dirty, the buyer may think it is a permanent stain when in fact the carpet just needs a cleaning. As a result, they may assume the carpets need replacing and factor that into a lower offer price. If a home has beautiful window views and the windows are dirty with dust, hand smudges and bird droppings, a Buyer may think, the windows are going to be a pain to clean. If the windows are clean, they just admire the beautiful views the home provides. When the Hardwood floors are dirty, the Buyers may notice the dust bunnies rather than noticing the beautiful wood floors that those dust bunnies are resting on. We have affordable cleaning crews who specialize in cleaning residential listings.

Some Cosmetic Upgrades or Remodeling

Most properties do not require cosmetic upgrades or remodeling. The specific needs and interests of the Seller and the property specifics will determine if there will be added property value from upgrading or remodeling. One scenario: There are times when an office may be turned into a bedroom by adding just a closet. By making a 2 bedroom into a 3 bedroom or a 3 into a 4 bedroom the property may meet the needs of more buyers. The more Buyers, the higher the demand for your property resulting in higher offer prices.
