Our Pricing Strategy

Assessing the value of your home is a vital part of the selling process which is dictated by current market value and influenced by several key factors:

• Supply and demand

• Economic conditions

• The selling and asking prices of comparable homes with similar criteria in your area

• Interior and exterior condition of the property

• Floor plan layout

• Buyer’s perception of your home

Our pricing approach considers each of the mentioned variables inclusive of our marketplace expertise and a goal to generate the highest level of engagement, interest and showings as soon as the property hits the market.

Those factors with minimal pricing influence to consider include the seller’s expected net proceeds, amount spent on improvements and the price the seller originally paid for the home.

Our Client Testimonials

“I found Charles’ real estate expertise to be top-notch. He’s been doing business and building connections for years. And he called on those connections to negotiate the best subcontractor prices and the highest quality work on my home.

I never expected this level of dedication from a selling agent. Charles could have backed off until the house was ready for sale. Instead, he became my advisor, my “project supervisor”. Charles helped me find subcontractors, worked with them and applied pressure when necessary to get things done in a timely manner. Charles brought in the roofers, landscapers and stagers and made everything come together for a beautiful presentation of a fabulously renovated product. Charles sold that house for a price that EVERYONE said couldn’t be achieved.”

-Sold a SFR

“If you are looking for a realtor, look no further! Charles makes magic happen! YOU WILL NOT FIND A BETTER REALTOR!!!

I cannot say enough good things about Charles Fisher and the service he provided in selling our parents home. My Mom passed away, this house was a family home for over 60 years. We lived about 400 miles away. We needed a full service realtor in the area, to minimize traveling to and from the property. Charles was fantastic in every way.

Unexpectedly, the house was full of Mom’s possessions. Charles took care of everything in a matter of 2 days! Having the house cleared up, cleaned up (inside and out),and sale ready in a matter of days. We never lifted a finger, or had to travel to the area. There were a few challenges during the sale, and I was appreciative of Charles knowledge of the market and advice. The house was in a trust and not having to worry about all the details was invaluable to us.

-Sold a SFR

I can’t thank Charles enough for all his help, advice and availability to us.”

Possible Pre-Listing Updates

Getting your home ready to sell is no small feat. A modified space can help you sell your home faster and turn a larger profit. Here are a list of several updates and repairs you can consider making on your property.

We provide an extensive list of trades and service providers who can assist every step of the way.

Kitchen

Start with the room where you spend most of your time: the kitchen. An updated kitchen is high on everyone’s list. And while some homebuyers are willing to renovate to mold it into their dream space, others are not. Homebuyers want a high-functioning, spacious, and organized cook space.

It might only take a few updates to freshen up the kitchen and attract buyers:

• Install new hardware

• Purchase shiny, new appliances

• Install updated and/or additional lighting

• Apply a fresh coat of paint to the walls (and maybe the cabinets, too)

Bathroom

Focus on these bathroom details:

• Replace old fixtures

• Install a new vanity

• Recaulk the shower

• Replace tiles

• Replace flooring

Charles Fisher | RE/MAX Estate Properties

Continued Updates...

Exterior Updates

Freshening up your home’s curb appeal doesn’t have to break the bank. A handful of small projects can help grab the attention of potential home buyers.

Easy home exterior updates:

• Apply a fresh coat of paint

• Plant vibrant, healthy landscaping

• Replace broken railings

• Fix cracks in the cement

• Pressure wash the exterior of the home and pavement (driveway, sidewalk, porch)

Other Home Repairs & Updates

• Fresh interior paint

• Clean or replace flooring

• Replace hardware

• Patch the walls

• Replace light bulbs

• Install new appliances

• Replace torn window screens

• Fix hidden issues

Understanding Living Trusts

Estate planners often recommend “Living Trusts” as a viable option when contemplating the manner in which to hold title to real property. When a property is held in a Living Trust, title companies have particular requirements to facilitate the transaction. While not comprehensive, following are answers to many commonly asked questions. If you have questions that are not answered below, your title company representative may be able to assist you, however, one may wish to seek legal counsel.

Who are the Parties to a Trust?

A typical trust is the family trust in which the husband and wife are the trustees and, with their children, the beneficiaries. Those who establish the trust and transfer their property into it are known as trustors or settlors. The settlors usually appoint themselves as trustees and they are the primary beneficiaries during their lifetime. After their passing, their children and grandchildren usually become the primary beneficiaries if the trust is to survive, or the beneficiaries receive distributions directly from the trust if it is to close out.

What is a Living Trust?

Sometimes called an Inter-vivos Trust, the Living Trust is created during the lifetime of the settlors (as opposed to being created by their wills after death) and usually terminates after they die and the body of the trust is distributed to their beneficiaries.

Can a Trust Hold Title to Real Property?

No. The trustee holds the property on behalf of the trust.

Is a Trust the Best Way to Hold My Property?

Only your attorney or accountant can answer the question; some common reasons for holding property in a trust are to minimize or postpone death taxes, to avoid a time consuming probate, and to shield property from attack by certain unsecured creditors.

What Taxes Can I Avoid by Putting My Property in Trust?

Married persons can usually exempt a significant part of their assets from taxation and may postpone taxes after the first of them to die passes. You should check with your attorney or accountant before taking any action.

Can I Homestead Property Which is Held in a Trust?

Yes, if the property otherwise qualifies.

Can a Trustee Borrow Money Against the Property?

A trustee can take any action permitted by the terms of the trust, and the typical Trust Agreement does give the trustee the authority to borrow and encumber real property. However, not all lenders will lend on a property held in trust, so check with your lender first.

Can Someone Else Hold Title For Me “In Trust?”

Some people who do not wish their names to show as titleholders make private arrangements with a third party trustee; however, such an arrangement may be illegal, and is always inadvisable because the trustee of record is the only one who is empowered to convey, or borrow against, the property, and a title insurer cannot protect you from a trustee who is not acting in accordance with your wishes despite the existence of a private agreement you have with the trustee.

Understanding Title Insurance

The Title Industry & Title Insurance in Brief

Prior to the development of the title industry in the late 1800s, a home-buyer received a grantor’s warranty, attorney’s title opinion, or abstractor’s certi cate as assurance of home ownership. The buyer relied on the nancial integrity of the grantor, attorney, or abstractor for protection. Today, home-buyers look primarily to title insurance to provide this protection. Title insurance companies are regulated by state statute. They are required to post nancial guarantees to ensure that any claims will be paid in a timely fashion. They also must maintain their own “title plants” which house duplicates of recorded deeds, mortgages, plats, and other pertinent county property records.

WHAT IS TITLE INSURANCE?

Title insurance provides coverage for certain losses due to defects in the title that, for the most part, occurred prior to your ownership. Title insurance protects against defects such as prior fraud or forgery that might go undetected until after closing and possibly jeopardize your ownership and investment.

WHY IS TITLE INSURANCE NEEDED?

Title insurance insures buyers against the risk that they did not acquire marketable title from the seller. It is primarily designed to reduce risk or loss caused by defects in title from the past. A loan policy of title insurance protects the interest of the mortgage lender, while an owner’s policy protects the equity of you, the buyer, for as long as you or your heirs (in certain policies) own the real property.

WHEN IS THE PREMIUM DUE?

You pay for your owner’s title insurance policy only once, at the close of escrow. Who pays for the owner’s policy and loan policy varies depending on local customs.

THE PRELIMINARY REPORT

Once you’ve opened escrow on a property, you will receive a preliminary report that describes the terms under which a title insurance policy will be issued for a specific parcel of land. It’s important to review this report so you understand any exceptions or exclusions from the title policy prior to completing your purchase.

WHAT IS A PRELIMINARY REPORT?

A preliminary report shows the ownership of a specific parcel of land, together with the liens and encumbrances tied to the property that will not be covered under a subsequent title insurance policy.

WHAT ROLE DOES A PRELIMINARY REPORT PLAY IN THE REAL ESTATE PROCESS?

While every property will have some exceptions, certain exceptions must be removed before a title policy can be issued. The preliminary report provides an opportunity for the parties to the real estate transaction and their agents to review and discuss items referenced in the report that are objectionable to the buyer prior to purchase.

WHEN AND HOW IS THE PRELIMINARY REPORT PRODUCED?

Shortly after escrow opens, the title company will begin assembling and reviewing certain recorded matters related to the property and the parties to the transaction. This may include things like a deed of trust recorded against the property or a lien recorded against the buyer or seller for an unpaid court award or unpaid taxes. These recorded matters are then listed numerically as “exceptions” in the preliminary report.

THE PRELIMINARY REPORT

WHAT SHOULD I LOOK FOR WHEN READING MY PRELIMINARY REPORT?

You will be primarily interested in the extent of your ownership rights, so rst review the ownership interest in the property you will be buying. The name of the owner of record shown in the report should match the name of the seller on your transaction. If the names don’t match, contact your escrow or title of cer. You will also see the statement of vesting, which shows the form of the owner’s interest in the real property. “Fee” or “fee simple” is the highest type of ownership interest an owner can have. In some transactions, the interest might be a lease hold estate.

Next, you’ll see a reference to the legal description of the property, which is typically included in a separate schedule. There may also be a plat map or assessor’s map illustrating the location of the property.

Finally, the report will re ect the exceptions, or those matters that will not be covered by the title insurance policy. Any transfer or encumbrance of this property will be subject to these exceptions unless steps are taken to eliminate them. Common exceptions include:

Claims by creditors who have liens or liens for payment of taxes or assessments

Rules and regulations known as covenants, conditions and restrictions (CC&Rs) that must be followed by every homeowner in a covered community

Easements that give another party a right or interest in a property, such as providing a utility company access to install and maintain equipment or allowing a neighbor to cross over the property to gain access to their property

A deed of trust for any existing loan against the property

Every title insurance policy will also contain an exhibit that lists exclusions from coverage. While the exceptions above are generally related to the subject property, exclusions are preprinted limitations on coverage that are included in all policies of the same type. It’s important to review this section, as it sets forth matters that will not be covered by your title insurance policy but that you may wish to investigate, such as governmental laws or regulations governing building and zoning.

If you have questions about the preliminary report, contact your title representative or escrow of cer.

IS A PRELIMINARY REPORT THE SAME THING AS TITLE INSURANCE?

No. A preliminary report is simply a statement of terms and conditions of the offer to issue a title insurance policy; it is not a representation as to the condition of title. No contract or liability exists until the title insurance policy is issued.

Understanding Home Warranty

A home warranty plan covers a variety of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing items, as well as some appliances. Optional coverage may be available for additional items such as air conditioners, refrigerators, pools, and spas.

The seller may purchase a home warranty plan prior to sale to protect against repairs needed during the listing period, and the buyer may be able to assume the plan at the close of escrow. Or the seller may offer to purchase a home warranty plan for the buyer. Offering a home warranty plan may provide these bene ts:

Increase the marketability of your home by reassuring potential buyers

Help sell your home faster and at a higher price

Ward off potential disputes after the sale for repair and/or replacement of covered items

Most home warranty plans can be paid for at the close of escrow. A copy of the invoice is presented to the escrow company.

Understanding the Appraisal Process

If the buyer is securing a new loan to purchase your home, the buyer’s lender will require an appraisal to determine the fair market value of the property. A licensed appraiser will research nearby houses that have sold recently, usually in the last six months, and are similar to yours in size, age, construction, and amenities.

The appraiser will make an appointment to see your home and will take about 30 minutes to an hour to look over the property. He or she will measure your home, draw a representative oor plan, take photographs inside and out, and review the property’s condition, speci c improvements, and amenities.

The appraiser will provide a typed appraisal report to the buyer’s lender within a few days after visiting your property. You will be noti ed if the lender requires repairs before they will lend on your home. If repairs are required, the appraiser will have to return to review the repairs and a re-inspection fee may be charged.

Understanding the Escrow Process

An escrow is a process wherein the buyer and seller deposit written instructions, documents, and funds with a neutral third party until certain conditions are ful lled. It enables the parties to the escrow to deal with each other without risk, provides an accounting of all the funds deposited in the escrow, and provides the buyer and the seller with a settlement statement. In a real estate transaction, the buyer does not pay the seller directly for the property. The buyer deposits the funds to an escrow holder. The escrow holder, acting as a neutral third party, veri es that a title insurance policy can be issued pursuant to the terms of the contract. Then, the escrow holder arranges for the documents transferring title to the property to the buyer to be recorded, for the issuance of the title policy, pays any liens and all the costs associated with the sale that are chargeable to the buyer and seller, and disburses the sales proceeds to the seller. If the buyer gets a new loan, then the lender’s money is deposited into the escrow and the lender’s security documents are recorded at the same time as the deed.

Consider This

One escrow transaction could involve more than 20 individuals, including real estate agents, buyers, sellers, attorneys, escrow of cer, escrow technician, title of cer, loan of cer, loan processor, loan underwriter, home inspector, termite inspector, insurance agent, home warranty representative, contractor, roofer, plumber, pool service, and so on. And often, one transaction depends on another. When you consider the number of people involved, you can imagine the opportunities for delays and mishaps. Your experienced escrow team can’t prevent unforeseen problems from arising; however, they can help smooth out the process.
