This chart illustrates the level of excitement and interest in a new listing

a property is first listed, it generates a very high level of interest from
prospective buyers, which reduces dramatically over time. It is important
to be priced correctly from the beginning, during the peak of this curve.

negatively affect the selling price and/or overall enthusiasm
for purchasing the home.

Seller’s Desired Price Setting the Price

Buyer’s Desired Price When setting a price for your property, the listing level must strike a balance
between the seller’s need to achieve the best-possible return and the buyer’s
need to get good value. With many years of experience, a professional Real
Estate Agent can help you set a price that will accomplish both objectives.

Establishing Market Value

The market value of your property is determined in
exactly the same way as any other commodity – what a
buyer is willing to pay for it in today’s market. Despite
the price you paid originally, or the value of any
improvements you may have made, the value is deter-
mined by market forces.

Look at the Competition

Buyers look at about a dozen properties on average
before making an offer on a property. As a result, they
have a good overview of the market and will compare
your property against the competition. If it’s not in line
with similar properties that are available, buyers won’t
consider it good value for money.

After a successful sale of your property, the real estate commission
is shared among all who assisted in this important transaction.
Generally, the commission is divided four ways: to the listing

recognition of the important roles each played in the sale of your
property, each is compensated by a percentage of the commission.

Showcasing Your Home

Preparing Your Home

It’s a fact: acquiring the highest market value and elevating your home above others in the same category
often comes down to first impressions. Here are some inexpensive tips to maximize your home’s appeal.

Well-placed furniture can open up a room and make rooms seem larger than they are. Opening drapes and
blinds and turning on all the lights make a room seem bright and cheery. The scent of your home can leave
a lasting effect on a potential buyer, so baking bread, cookies or a pie will leave a warm inviting fragrance.

knickknacks (place in storage) Keep pets secured outdoors
Repair all plumbing leaks, including faucets & Open drapes in daytime
