than almost any Realtor® team by using several techniques
not employed by most realtors. The agents on our team know
your home better than any others. Therefore we are more
likely to sell you home fast because of our
Buyers In
Waiting Program
. Some of our techniques are listed below.
– A high tech pay per click campaign unmatched in this market that nets over 200 buyer leads per month
– A high tech call capture technique yields dozens of buyer leads a month
– An aggressive online posting campaign adds dozens of leads to the buyers in waiting
– Listings equal buyer leads. Few realtors have more listing than us therefore few realtors have more leads.

• Staging
– We will pay for a professional stager to spend
one hour at your home (you may use more
time at your expense)
– The stager will make several suggestions that
will cost you nothing
– Some suggestions may cost you money
(painting for instance) however your net
return may be more than what you pay for any
improvements
improvements
– Vacant homes can be staged using our décor
items for a small fee
–
Homes that are staged sell much faster than
homes without staging. If another realtor
does not stage your home they simply are
telling you they cannot sell your home as fast.

Advantages of Pricing Properly
Advantages of Pricing Properly
Advantages of Pricing Properly
Advantages of Pricing Properly
• FASTER SALE: The proper price gets a faster sale, which means you save on
mortgage payments, real estate taxes, insurance, and other carrying costs.
• LESS INCONVENIENCE: As you may know, it takes a lot of time and energy to
prepare your home for showings, keep the property clean, make arrangements for children and pets, and generally alter your lifestyle. Proper pricing shortens market time.
• INCREASED SALESPERSON RESPONSE: When salespeople are excited
about a property and its price, they make special efforts to contact all their potential buyers and show the property whenever possible.
• EXPOSURE TO MORE PROSPECTS: Pricing at market value will open your
home up to more people who can afford it. home up to more people who can afford it.
• BETTER RESPONSE FROM ADVERTISING: Buyer inquiry calls are more
readily converted into showing appointments when the price is not a deterrent.
• HIGHER OFFERS: When a property is priced right, buyers are much less likely to
make a low offer, for fear of losing out on a great value.
• MORE MONEY TO SELLERS: When a property is priced right, the excitement
of the market produces a higher sales price in less time. You NET more due to the higher sales price and lower carrying costs.
Drawbacks of Over Pricing
Drawbacks of Over Pricing
Drawbacks of Over Pricing
Drawbacks of Over Pricing
• REDUCES ACTIVITY: Agents won’t show the property if they feel it is priced too
high.
• LOWER ADVERTISING RESPONSE: Buyer excitement will be with other
properties that offer better value.
• LOSS OF INTERESTED BUYERS: The property will seem inferior in amenities
to other properties in the same price range that are correctly priced.
• ATTRACTS THE WRONG PROSPECTS: Serious buyers will feel that they
should be getting more for their money.
• HELPS THE COMPETITION:The high price makes the others look like a good
deal.
• ELIMINATES OFFERS:Since a fair priced offer will be lower than asking price
and may insult the seller, many buyers will just move on to another property.
• CAUSES APPRAISAL PROBLEMS:Appraisers must base their value on what
comparable properties have sold for.
• LOWER NET PROCEEDS:Most of the time an overpriced property will
eventually end up selling for less than if it had been properly priced to begin with, not to mention the extra carrying costs.

• MYTH:
• I should select the agent that suggests the highest list price.
• TRUTH:
• This is the oldest scam in real estate sales: Tell the seller what they want to hear, compliment the home, and agree to list it at an unrealistically high price just to get the listing. Then, after you have the listing for a few weeks, start telling the seller that they need to reduce the price. • The Premier Home Selling Team doesn’t play any games. The Premier
Home Selling Team provides a well researched computerized market analysis to determine the true realistic price that your home will bear in today’s marketplace. The decisions of which agent to list with and what today’s marketplace. The decisions of which agent to list with and what price to ask are two completely separate decisions.
• The agent that gives in the easiest on price is probably the agent who needs the listing the most because they have no business. This
generally means that they are a poor negotiator that you do not want on your side when an offer comes in on your home.
• The true test of how much your home is worth, is by exposing it to the market and gauging it’s response. Our exclusive 7 day sale process will generate the maximum number of offers in the shortest amount of time.
