Timing A C T I V I T Y 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 WEEKS ON MARKET • • Timing is extremely important in the real estate market. • • It has the greatest opportunity to sell when it is new on the market. A property attracts the most activity from the real estate community and potential buyers when it is first listed. For a hassle free consultation, or more information call Lori Lincoln 508-878-0917 Home Warranty Plans Home warranty plans go a long way to alleviate some risks and concerns. For a modest price, the seller can provide to the buyer a one year warranty covering specified heating, plumbing, electrical, water heater or appliance breakdowns. Coverage under most plans commences at closing. In all cases, there are important limitations and exclusions (example: appliances/systems must be operative at commencement of coverage). Pricing Factors IMPORTANCE OF INTELLIGENT PRICING +15% ASKING PRICE +10% Market Value -10% -15% 10% PERCENTAGE OF BUYERS 30% 60% 75% 90% As the triangle graph illustrates, more buyers purchase their properties at market value than above market value. If you price your property at market value, you are exposing it to a much greater percentage of prospective buyers and you are increasing your opportunity for a sale. For a hassle free consultation, or more information call Lori Lincoln 508-878-0917 Pricing Misconceptions It is very important to price your property at competitive market value at the signing of the listing agreement. Historically, your first offer is usually your best offer. WHAT YOU PAID WHAT YOU NEED WHAT YOU WANT WHAT YOUR NEIGHBOR SAYS WHAT ANOTHER AGENT SAYS COST TO REBUILD TODAY Buyers & Sellers Determine Value The value of your property is determined by what a BUYER is willing to pay and a SELLER is willing to accept in today’s market. Buyers make their pricing decision based on comparing your property to other property SOLD in your area. For a hassle free consultation, or more information call Lori Lincoln 508-878-0917 Competitive Market Analysis • Recent Sales • Current Listings = Competition • Expired Listings = What has not sold Preparing For The Offer In slow economic times, offers to purchase routinely come in “low” whereas in healthy economic times, offers are closer to the asking price. Do not be offended by any offer received. Be offended by buyers who tour your property and don’t submit an offer. • ACCEPTANCE. Signed by all parties, dated, delivered… congratulations, you’re on your way to having your property sold! • REJECTION. Unconditional… unfortunately, your home is still on the market. • COUNTER OFFER. Any change to the contract constitutes a counter offer. You are now in the renegotiation stage. • NO ACTION. Equals rejection. Your home is still on the market. An Offer is Just the Beginning TRANSACTION PROCESSING PROCESSING REJECTION MORTGAGE CO. CREDIT REPORT UNDERWRITING LOAN APPROVAL TITLE CO.
