Solution Based Results... Case Study #1

2424 SUMMERLAKE ROAD

Situation:

The property was on the market with two different agents for over two years (730+ days) with no offers. Starting list price was $735K and the last list price of $685K. The seller was exhausted, and desperately wanted to sell but needed the money!!!

Positive Home Features:

• Great neighborhood, family-oriented, close to South Park

• Open floorplan – Kitchen to Great Room

• Updated, white Kitchen with granite countertops

• Master Bedroom on the main floor

Identified Obstacles (from Prior Buyer Feedback):

• Sloped Backyard/ No Backyard

• Dated elements of the property (blond floors, gold fixtures/knobs, a mix of paint colors throughout the house, etc.).

• Master Bathroom was “builder basic”.

My Recommendations:

• With the desirable Swim Club being adjacent to the neighborhood, offer Old Providence Swim & Racquet Club initiation fee ($1,500) with an acceptable Purchase Offer.

• Recommended and paid for a landscape architect to render a tiered backyard design that was incorporated into the listing marketing materials, visually illustrating the backyard’s potential and functionality.

• Restaged the home with updated furniture and layout, repainted many rooms neutral color, removed worn stair runner, updated dated lighting fixtures, etc.

• Updated Master Bathroom with new facet/knob fixtures and new seamless glass surround. Had tile grout cleaned.

• Changed out all home “gold” door knobs/hinges hardware to oiled bronze.

• Refinish hardwood floors from dated “blond/golden” color to a more desirable and updated color.

• Made all updates over 3 month period (90 days) so the CDOM (Cumulative Days On Market) would reset back to day 1.

• Recommended “twilight” front exterior photography creating ambiance and drama.

Results:

• The home was Under Contract in 6 days at $705K purchase price or $20K over their last list price. The seller was elated!!!

Case Study #2

2539 SUMMERLAKE ROAD

Situation:

The property was on the market for 6 months with a prior agent. Starting list price at $1.095M and last list price of $995K. The seller was out of the country, and wanted to sell but did not want to give away the property!!!

Positive Home Features:

• Great neighborhood, family-oriented, close to South Park

• Waterfront property with Lake views across the back of the property

• Updated, white Kitchen with granite countertops

• Gorgeous updated light fixtures throughout

• Master Bedroom on the main floor

Identified Obstacles (from Prior Buyer Feedback):

• No pool or landscaped backyard

• Awkward 2-story Great Room that was in the center of the home previously staged with small-scale (low), monochromatic leather furniture.

My Recommendations:

• Had Landscape Architect develop a stunning tiered backyard/pool design that was incorporated into the listing marketing materials and was on an easel display in the property

• Identified untapped home potential/value by the possibility of putting a second story over 2-story great room.

• Restaged the home by moving furniture around and bringing in some new pieces that were more in line with the home scale and layout.

• Showcased unique house feature of a see-through fireplace through photography and display.

• Showcased the exclusive lake feature of the property with photography and blogs.

• Executed all updates over three month time period (90 days) so CDOM would reset back to day 1.

Results:

• Relisted home at $1,050,000 and the home was Under Contract in 26 days!

• The home sold for $975,000

Case Study #3

2508 FLINTGROVE ROAD

Situation:

New Listing at $995K where the homeowner wanted to get the most amount of money as possible out of the home.

My Recommendations:

• I recommended adding a heating/AC line to the enclosed Sunroom area. The $3,000 installation investment created an additional $20,000 in property value for my Sellers.

• The home sold for $955,000 or 96% of the List Price.

Case Study #4

5639 LAURIUM ROAD

Situation:

New Listing at $1,185,000 that was synthetic stucco. The sellers were getting a divorce and had just updated the basement. I noticed they had purchased the property directly from the prior homeowner so there was no prior listing mentioning a “synthetic stucco” exterior on the property.

My Recommendations:

• Recommended a pre-inspection of synthetic stucco exterior with Ron McClure.

• Even before they had finished interviewing agents, I had 3 sets of Buyers in the property and was able to get buyers in the property before mentioning the synthetic stucco exterior. Once they were inside, I made mention of the exterior material, but by that point, they already fell in love with the home.

• The home sold for $1,170,000 before hitting the market!

Case Study #5

5540 FALLON COURT

Situation:

Clients wanted to move to the beach as soon as possible. They had a very unique property in South Charlotte, situated on a lake with 3.46 acres. They were concerned that my initial recommended List Price of $1.275M was too high. They thought their home value was close to $1.1M.

My Recommendations:

• I ordered and paid for a property appraisal that ended up supporting my original recommended List Pricing of $1.275M.

• We staged the home with updated furnishing and layout, painted numerous spaces (where needed), removed draperies to open up lake views, removed dated elements, etc.

• Sellers still wanted to list the property at $1,235,000 and under the appraised value of $1.28M.

• The home went Under Contract with multiple offers in 9 days!

Case Study #6

5548 FALLON COURT

Situation:

The client needed to move for health reasons. We purchased a Rosewood Penthouse suite for her, and she needed to sell her existing home. She had a very traditional, closed floor plan with a sloped backyard.

My Recommendations:

• Open up the wall from the Great Room to Kitchen/Breakfast Room for a nominal cost of $3,500.

• Paint numerous rooms with a neutral color palette to appeal to the broadest buyer base.

• Stage vacant property with updated, on-trend furnishings.

• The home went Under Contract in 6 days at 99% sales price to a list price of $970K.

15 Steps to SOLD!

Consultation

During our COMPLIMENTARY CONSULTATION we will tour your home and go over what needs to be done to prepare it to sell. I will share the comps in your area with a comparative market analysis(CMA), and discuss strategic pricing and my marketing strategy that will sell your home for top dollar quickly.

Marketing Strategies

Our MARKETING will go above & beyond putting a sign in the yard and placing it in the MLS. We take pride in our custom marketing strategies. Your home will be showcased on social media, email, video & print marketing. We want to meet every possible buyer wherever they might be looking.

Staging & Pre-Inspection

The goal of STAGING is having a trained eye come into your home and look at it as a buyer would. My ability to stage for the market will get your home show ready. We look at staging like we are creating a neutral palette, so that all buyers can envision themselves living there.

A PRE-INSPECTION will be done so that the buyers will have confidence to make an offer on the home.

Photography & Videography

Many times a buyer has already decided if they are interested in your home just from the pictures online, without ever stepping foot inside. Our PHOTOGRAPHY partners are the best at coming into your home and capturing it at its absolute best. Now, the pre-marketing can begin.

Coming Soon & Firm Exclusive

If applicable, we can list your home as “COMING SOON” in MLS. This will give buyers a sneak peek into your home before it is officially ready to show.

FIRM EXCLUSIVE is another option for the most discerning clients. Your home will be marketed within our firm to all of our brokers.

Active On Market

Now that we have completed all the steps to prepare your home for market, it’s time to go LIVE . Our marketing plan will also go live and your home will be presented to thousands across our market as well as the world with our Leading Real Estate Companies of the World® global network.

Showings / Open House

Keeping your home show ready is the key to being sold quickly. I will share tips with you to keep the guess work out of making sure you are ready for all SHOWINGS. Keeping a clean, shiny, and clutter-free home will ensure buyers only see the best things about your home.

15 Steps to SOLD!

Offers

I will be your guide in looking through all presented OFFERS. There are many things to consider and price is just one of them. I will help you decide which one best accommodates your needs and timeline.

Negotiating

One of the top reasons to hire a licensed broker is for the next step: NEGOTIATING. I am aware of market trends in our area and can help negotiate the best offer for your home based on the current market and your needs.

Inspections

Once the offer is accepted it is time for INSPECTIONS. These will take place within the first 2-10 days after an offer is accepted, or during the due diligence period. The buyer will pay an inspector to look through the entire property and list all things the home could need. Big and small things will be on the list. The report will be sent to the buyers for review with their agent. Buyers may or may not try to negotiate items for repair on the list. Once all parties have an agreement, we move on to the next step: APPRAISAL.

Appraisal

If the buyer is utilizing a loan, then an APPRAISAL will be ordered by the loan officer. These are often chosen at random from a pool of appraisers. The goal is to have the appraisal come in at or above the purchase price of the contract so the mortgage lender will approve the loan. It is important the home be in tip top shape at the time of the appraisal.

Title & Utilities

The TITLE company will make sure the home title is clean for the closing. This means they will look over all paperwork to be sure there are no liens on the property, no extra names on the title, and prepare for closing. They will work with the lender to ensure everything is ready for closing day.

You will want to schedule the transfer and/or shut off all UTILITIES for closing day or the day after. This should be set-up at least 2 weeks prior to closing.

Final Walk-Through

The buyers will do their FINAL WALK-THROUGH up to 4 days prior to closing. This is to make sure all negotiated items have been completed, that the home is clean, and all is as it should be.

Closing

Congratulations, you have made it to closing day! CLOSING is when the necessary paperwork to complete the transaction is signed. The papers are signed at the real estate attorney’s office and the title is transferred from the seller to the buyer. Once funded, the buyer receives the keys, and the seller receives payment for the home.

HOME SELLERS: HERE’S WHAT THE NAR SETTLEMENT MEANS FOR YOU

As a home seller, you have a wide range of choices when it comes to listing your home. Agents who are REALTORS® are a trusted source of advice and stand ready to help you navigate this complex process and make the choices that work best for you. NAR’s recent settlement has led to several changes related to broker commissions that benefit sellers, and we wanted to clearly lay them out for you

Here is what the settlement means for home sellers:

• You still have the choice of offering compensation to buyer brokers. You may consider doing this as a way of marketing your home or making your listing more attractive to buyers.

• Your agent must conspicuously disclose to you and obtain your approval for any payment or offer of payment that a listing broker will make to another broker acting for buyers.

• This disclosure must be made to you in writing in advance of any payment or agreement to pay another broker acting for buyers, and must specify the amount or rate of such payment.

• If you choose to approve an offer of compensation, there are changes to how this can happen.

• You as the seller can still make an offer compensation, but your agent cannot include it on a Multiple Listing Service (MLS) MLSs are local marketplaces used by both buyer brokers and listing brokers to share information about properties for sale.

• Your agent can advertise your listing via off-MLS platforms such as social media, flyers and websites.

• You as the seller can still offer buyer concessions on an MLS (for example, concessions for buyer closing costs)

These settlement practice changes will go into effect August 17.

Here is what the settlement doesn’t change:

• Agents who are REALTORS® are here to help you navigate the process of selling your home and are ethically obligated to work in your best interest.

• Compensation for your agent remains fully negotiable, and if your agent is a REALTOR®, they must abide by the REALTOR® Code of Ethics and have clear and transparent discussions with you about compensation. When finding an agent to work with, ask questions about compensation and discuss what you would like to offer buyers.

• You have choices Work with your agent to understand the full range of these choices when selling your home, which will help you make the best possible decision for your needs.

• All of this is available to you, AND it doesn’t cost you a dime! No monetary output on your behalf, and you get the confidence in knowing that you are being taken care by the “best of the best” in the industry.

This “white glove” treatment is at your service……

Own A Home?

OPEN UP POSSIBILITIES FOR OTHERS

THERE’S STRENGTH IN NUMBERS. Never has that been truer than when coming together in the real estate community to combat homelessness.

THE HOMEOWNERS IMPACT FUND, a designated 501(c)3 nonprofit, invites participants who are in the home closing process to make a small donation that adds up to a substantial gift to local organizations working to lift men, women and children out of homelessness. Because when you harness the power of community, you can weather any storm.

HOW IT WORKS

If you’re fortunate enough to have a roof over your head, please consider supporting the Homeowners Impact Fund to help others in need. Funds raised are distributed directly to reputable nonprofit organizations that support individuals and families in finding a path out of homelessness.

Every day, you experience the joy of a place to call home. Every day, more than 3,000 people in the Charlotte area experience homelessness. Every day, more than 580,000 people across the US experience homelessness. Together, we can make a difference.
