Agency Relationships When real estate professionals work with sellers and buyers, “agency” relationships are established. There are three kinds of agency relationships:

1. Seller’s agent A “seller’s agent” represents the interests of the seller and has a fiduciary responsibility of reasonable care, loyalty, confidentiality and disclosure to the seller. A seller’s real estate professional (agent) works to assist the seller in locating a buyer and in negotiating a transaction suitable to the seller’s specific needs.

2. Buyer’s agent A “buyer’s agent” represents the buyer during the home buying process. The buyer’s real estate professional (agent) has a fiduciary responsibility to represent the buyer’s best interests including reasonable care, loyalty and confidentiality.

3. Disclosed dual agent A “disclosed dual agent” represents the interests of both the seller and the buyer, during the same transaction. A dual agent has responsibilities to both seller and buyer and must act in the best interests of both parties.

The

HOMESELLING Process

Prepared by: Agent Name, Agent Title


The HOMESELLING Process Selling a house typically includes many of the following elements. I will be your resource and guide every step of the way.

Review Offer and Reach Agreement with Buyer • Buyer’s Real Estate Professional presents offer • Discuss and clarify proposed terms and conditions • Negotiation; possible counteroffers • Reach final agreement

Initial Consultation • Determine your needs and priorities • Review “agency” choices & select appropriate working relationship • Discuss Marketing Plan • Establish Pricing Strategy

Complete Settlement Process (per purchase contract) • Deposit of buyer’s earnest money • Sign documents • Title search; preliminary title report to buyer • Inspections • Removal of remaining contingencies • Buyer’s final walk-through of property • Loan funding/balance of funds from buyer • Recording of title • Relocation of seller; possession of property by buyer

Design and Implement Marketing Plan • Complete home enhancement recommendations • Carry out scheduled marketing activities • Show the property to brokers and prospective buyers • Communicate with you on a regular basis • Monitor results of marketing activities • Modify Marketing Plan and Pricing Strategy as necessary

After-sale Service • Help you find your next home, as needed • Assist you with relocation, as needed • Provide resources for other after-sale homeowner needs

Prepared by: Agent Name, Agent Title


The HOMESELLING Process The Dangers Of Overpricing An asking price that is beyond market range can adversely affect the marketing of a property. • Fewer buyers are attracted, and fewer offers received. • Marketing time is prolonged, and initial marketing momentum is lost. • The property attracts “lookers” and helps competing houses look better by comparison. • If a property does sell above true market value, it may not appraise, and the buyers may not be able to secure a loan. • The property may eventually sell below market value.

Prepared by: Agent Name, Agent Title


The HOMESELLING Process Average Price Analysis

Pricing at TRUE market value AT THE TIME OF LISTING caused a 58% reduction in DOM and a 4.2% price gain!

Prepared by: Agent Name, Agent Title


The HOMESELLING Process Pricing Strategy General Rules. Let’s review some important considerations. There are certain factors that are beyond our control and certain factors that are within our control. Those factors outside of our control are: the location of the property, the finished square feet and types of rooms and the amenities that are in place. Those factors we can control are: the appearance of the property inside and out, how aggressively we market the property and the price, including terms. It is critical for us to accept those factors that are beyond our control and to focus on pricing and preparation.

Local Market Observations. Our market is currently steady. Properties are not moving very fast but they are not languishing for months either. Given the current interest rate situation we should continue to experience relatively low mortgage rates and thus the market should remain steady for awhile. Suggested Price Strategy. My analysis of the comparable properties suggests a list price range of $__________________ to $__________________. This range should achieve your primary goal which is a reasonably quick sale.
