CHAD HAGENSON OWNER/BROKER CELL PHONE: 6025701816 OFFICE PHONE: 6025701816 EMAIL: AZCHAD@GMAIL.COM WEBSITE: HTTP://WWW.ARIZONAHOMEGURU.COM Coming from a long family history in the real estate profession, I virtually grew up in the industry. I moved from Northeast Iowa to Mesa, Arizona in 1984. I began working for a busy real estate office located in Chandler in 1994 while attending college. This allowed me to learn the Arizona marketplace, systems, and procedures and in 1998 I attained my real estate license. I have not looked back since. After countless happy client transactions, I now live in Gilbert with my wife, Casey, and our daughter, Sydney. My passion is Real Estate and helping the clients I work with fulfill their real estate goals. Whether it be first time home buyers, seasoned investors or home sellers moving to a better fit for their needs; I always strive to overachieve by fulfilling my client's vision of success. I take great pride in the service I've provided my clients over the years. I invite you to take advantage of my real estate knowledge, experience and professionalism to ensure you have a smooth and hassle free transaction on your next home purchase, home sale or real estate investment.

CLIENT SATISFACTION IS MY PRIORTY GREAT TO WORK WITH He always did what he said he would do and even picked us up at the airport for the final viewing of the property we ultimately bought. It was a very good experience and Chad listened to what we were looking for. He made it an easy process and we didn't have to be present at the closing; all went very smoothly.

“YOU NEVER GET A SECOND CHANCE TO MAKE A FIRST IMPRESSION.” Overpricing your home will attract fewer potential buyers and may cause the property to sit on the market for longer than desired. To the buyer, too much time on the market indicates an overpriced property and often is perceived as an opportunity to negotiate a price lower than the market might typically bear. Pricing your property outside of the reasonable range can have the following adverse results:

• Low level of interested activity – showings decrease when a property is perceived as being priced “out-of-the-market”.

• Reduction in exposure – fewer buyers will view your property because it is out of their price range.

• Difficulty in obtaining financing – The property may not appraise, and lenders must obtain an appraisal to demonstrate fair market value.

This will determine the amount the lender will finance and if the property does not properly appraise, they can require the buyer to make up the difference in cash, which the buyer may not have.

• Increased market selling time – your property is viewed as overpriced and becomes “stale,” even if price reductions are implemented.

Pricing your home competitively at the start will create more activity among real estate agents and buyer’s. This can decrease the time it takes to sell, and ultimately yielding you the highest possible price.

Market Value Strategies Statistics Have Shown

Timing is extremely important in the real estate market. The diagram above illustrates the importance of placing your property on the market at a competitive price from the very beginning.

• There is a 95% chance of sale if a home is priced at market value.

• There is a 50% chance of sale if priced at 5% over market value.

• There is a 30% chance of sale if priced at 10% over market value.

• There is a 20% chance of sale if priced at 15% over market value.

• The seller can only set the asking price. The buyers will set the sale price.

The Art Of Pricing WHY IS ACCURATE PRICING SO CRITICAL? The combination of the right time with the correct price is essential for a successful sale. The first 30 days on the market are crucial, as buyers display high interest in new listings and start looking for price adjustments for properties that sit longer on the market.

Many considerations come into play when determining the value of a home.

PRICE-DETERMINING FACTORS By using optimal positioning and strategic pricing, our real estate agents are highly trained to ensure your home is adequately prepared for market. This allows your property to sell for the highest price in the shortest amount of time.

Some of the most important factors are: • Comparative market analysis (CMA) • Lending market assessment • Location • Size

• Number of bedrooms and baths • Features and finishes • Property condition • Curb appeal

WHAT IS A COMPARATIVE MARKET ANALYSIS (CMA)?

A CMA is a side-by-side comparison of homes for sale and homes that have recently sold in the same neighborhood and price range. The purpose is to show fair market value based on what other buyers and sellers have determined through past sales, pending sales and homes recently listed on the market.

Seller’s Checklist Making sure your home is in optimal showing condition will set it apart from the competition and help to secure the maximum price in the least amount of time.

The following tips will help prepare your home for sale and boost saleability once you go to market.

THE POTENTIAL BUYER’S OVERALL OUTLOOK ON YOUR HOME BEGINS WITH THE FIRST IMPRESSION. PREP-SALE INSPECTION

Hire an inspector to assess your property before you sell it. Obtain contractor estimates to repair any major problems that may deter potential buyers.

H0ME REPAIRS

The smallest improvements can make the biggest difference! Here are a few minor repairs to consider before listing your home: • Paint walls and ceilings a neutral color • Re-grout tile and walls • Restore hardware and fixtures as needed • Improve lighting by replacing light bulbs with higher-wattage bulbs • Repair any signs of damage • Refinish floors to minimize wear and tear

ENHANCE YOUR CURB APPEAL

• Spice up the lawn and landscaping • Add fresh flowers • Check for cracks or exterior features that could use minor repairs

DEEP CLEAN

• Clean all windows and screens to allow as much light as possible into your home • Remove clutter • Clean and polish floors, lighting fixtures and faucets • Dust and vacuum regularly • Eliminate any odors

STAGE YOUR HOME

Set the scene by preparing your property to show!

Neutralize your home by removing bulky furniture, personal photos and general clutter. Adding subtle accessories such as a simple centerpiece, accent pillows or a floral arrangement can help liven up a room and make potential buyers feel like they're touring a model home.
