For Sellers
ONE REASON TO CHOOSE US AS YOUR LISTING AGENT: We know our business. We are able to help you price your home for sale. The market is always changing and what was a good price yesterday might not be a good price today. Not only do we "do the research" to help establish a sales price, but experience and market "feel" help you decide how to price your house. We usually will give you three prices - a "sell it quick" price, a "let it sit for a normal amount of time" price, and an "I just want to see if it will bring this" price. We produce great flyers for the drive by prospect. We can work with buyers to help negotiate a win/win situation for both buyer and seller. We do not believe the real estate process should be a competition with a winner and a loser, but rather a beneficial arrangement where both sides accomplish their goals in a satisfying experience.
