Information for Sellers

So, you’re thinking of selling. Every person you talk to has an opinion on how/why/when to sell your home. Sure, some of it may be alright but you need the help of a professional who sells homes each and every day to determine the real do’s and don’ts. And someone who sells them well! It’s easy to stick a for sale sign up and snap a few photos. But that’s not what will sell your home properly nor for the most money.

Greg has a decade long proven strategy (that is constantly being revamped to reflect latest trends/leading edge marketing) to get your home sold quickly and for the best terms possible. It’s not uncommon for Sellers to start consultations with Greg up to 1 year in advance of their intended listing time. Now, this isn’t always the case, sometimes life happens and things creep up quickly, so don’t worry we easily work with very short notice too!

It’s all in the details. Keeping it fresh and thinking outside the box!

There are a lot of really good realtors out there. Don’t get us wrong. But you need to guarantee you hire not only someone who is the best, but someone who strives on doing their best. A full service realtor/brokerage is the only way to go.

Keeping up to date with the real estate market is a must. Prior to selling any home, the targeted buyer segment must be established and researched so it’s known who is going to be buying your home, when those buyers will be out there house hunting and what is going to make your home stand out to them! Your target market will help dictate the total marketing plan necessary for the optimal sale of your home including timing of the listing.

One of the biggest differences of Greg’s home selling strategy success is treating each home he lists and markets with the same respect he would his own. And let us tell you, he’s particular! Whether you’re selling a condo apartment, townhome, semi-detached or luxury detached estate, there will be no detail of your property that is overlooked. It is SO common to see homes for sale with unsightly mistakes in marketing/presentation even after so-called home stagers and photographers have been hired that will cost Sellers thousands in lost sale price potential. You need a realtor who personally oversees the entire marketing campaign from start to finish. And yes, we also have a team of the best professional experts out there to ensure every aspect is done just right!

You’ll be surprised, it’s very reasonable! Since every sale is unique, there is no single flat rate dictated. Greg works with Sellers to ensure top notch selling service is affordable to everyone. There are different packages and rates available that all offer the same great base services. You deserve the best service when selling your largest asset and also deserve the best rate. Don’t be fooled into thinking you’ll save money selling with a discount brokerage or that a full service professional realtor is too expensive…that’s not always the case!
