FAQ
Start by making a commitment to do what it takes to market your house to get it sold. With the right system, the home sale you want is still well within reach.
Review your previous selling plan and you’ll discover that an expired listing usually reflects a problem in one or more of these four major areas:
- Teamwork,
- Pricing,
- Condition of Your Home, and
- Marketing.
One of the first steps in your marketing plan involves finding an agent who will best represent you. When interviewing agents, test and compare their knowledge and ask each to demonstrate how they will market your home to buyers. Also compare how much money each spends on advertising the homes s/he lists, in what media (newspaper, magazine, etc.) and the effectiveness of one medium over the other. Remember, it’s not just how much they spend, but how they spend it.
Before You Put Your Home Back on the Market remember:
- Effective communication is vital between you and your agent.
- Price your home according to market conditions, competition and the condition of your house.
- Be sure your house is in showcase, buyer ready-condition.
- Have an innovative marketing plan firmly set in place. Not intended to solicit property currently listed for sale.
- Use an agent you trust.
