Discovering the unique story of your property. Buyers with emotional connections pay more. • Does your property have a unique style? • What about the design and construction? • How would the builder or architect describe the attributes of the property? • Is it in a popular location? • Does the area have highly-rated schools? • Are there compelling neighborhood amenities? • Is it eco friendly or recently remodeled? • Is it a historic property or near a historic area? • What is the lifestyle story that would attract buyers?
Property condition and staging. The basics: • Clean and Repair • De-clutter • De-personalize • Neutralize
Engage the 5 senses: • Sight • Smell • Touch • Taste • Sound
Pricing strategy. The right pricing strategy will sell your property faster! • If you price too high, many potential buyers will not look at your property. • If you price too low, you may not get the highest return on investment. • It is critical you step out of the shoes of the seller and pretend you are a buyer to fairly assess your competitive positioning.
Pricing strategy.
