PRICE Improperly pricing a property is typically the number one cause for a property not selling! There are many strategies to try and sell a home, but there is only one proven strategy: pricing a property competitively and correctly. Many RealtorsÂŽ try and overprice listings by leaving it on the market for a long period slowly reducing the price, or underpricing listings quickly generating numerous offers to hopefully bid up the price. Neither choice is the best option for you, the client. Pricing a property correctly gives you, the owner, the highest return in the shortest period of time. I do things very differently from most other real estate brokers and in doing so I produce much better results for my clients. The big difference is my property evaluation and pricing method. When I do my analysis and pricing evaluation of a property, I do so in a manner that can almost guarantee competition for your home, a successful appraisal and the results you expect.
Co m m o n P r ob le m # 2 :
CONDITION Houses that show in top condition usually command top price! When showing a house everything matters; the paint, landscaping, window coverings, and floors. All should be in showing condition. Your house should look clean inside and out. This is why many staged homes sell quicker than regular homes. This does not mean every house must be staged to sell, but a house that is clean and shows well will stick in a buyer ’s head, leaving your home with a positive mindset. On the other hand, a dirty, messy home will foster a negative image making it more difficult to justify the selling price of your home. We look to work with you to make sure your home is in perfect condition to sell. Whether that means rearranging furniture or cleaning, we work with you to set up your house to sell.

MARKETING Combining the right agent and the right marketing can really set your listing apart and make it stand out in today’s competitive market! Many homes today are overlooked simply due to lack of exposure. Statistics show that 84% of home buyers use the Internet as a tool when searching for homes. Therefore, your home needs to be marketed all over a myriad of internet sites. We look to not only flood the internet with your listing but to go beyond that. People do not realize presentation of listings may dictate if it sells or not. Successfully sold homes typically had advertisements that were clear and concise with numerous high quality photos. As we market on the internet we also market the old fashioned way. This includes flyers, door to door knocking, and calling other trusted agents to spread the word about your listing. They have qualified buyers who may be interested in your home.

THE WRONG AGENT In today’s market there are real estate agents and real estate sales professionals. You want a sales professional who is connected in the real estate community and has knowledge and understanding of the current market and trends. A SALES PROFESSIONAL: - Puts his/her client before anyone else. - Presents a complete marketing plan explaining what and how they will get your home sold. - Places your home on the MLS properly. Everything is perfect from pictures all the way down to the listing printout. - Directly markets to an existing network of buyers looking to purchase property in your area, as well as market to others in their office to bring the necessary attention to your listing. - Calls other agents in the local area making them aware of your listing and allowing everyone to know your home is listed and priced ready to sell.
ABOUT JUSTIN JUSTIN GREENEBRG Real Estate Broker
847.975.7658 JGreenberg@BHHSChicago.com As heard on Newsradio WBBM 780 AM and 105.9 FM I know that my success in this business is 100% dependent upon the success of my clients in achieving their goals. In order to successfully meet your goals, I need to know what they are and come up with a strategy to best help you achieve them. Your satisfaction is my primary objective. I don’t just want you to be happy with the results at the end of the day, I want you to be so overly impressed that you tell all your friends, family, and co-workers about your experience. Most of my business comes from referrals from my friends, family, and past clients. They already know how much it means to me to obtain incredible results for my clients. I take a lot of pride in the fact that I have only had two listings throughout my 12-year real estate career which I was unable to sell for terms that the owner was satisfied with. The first home sat on the market for 1,334 days with four different brokers after the owner and I mutually decided it would be best to part ways. It ultimately sold for $150,000 less than an offer I had presented less than 120 days into our time working together. The second home I produced 3 offers within the first 3 months and the seller did not agree to terms on any of them. All of the offers would have resulted in the seller walking away with equity. The home is now in foreclosure proceedings and the seller is going to lose his home and not get any of his hundreds of thousands in equity. I don’t tell you this to toot my own horn, rather it is to show you the level of commitment you will get from me if you choose to work together. I truly appreciate this opportunity and hope I can add you to my growing list of satisfied customers in a few short months.
