We let our clients do the talking.

Sandy is great. She did beyond what an agent would do. We lived out of state. I only mailed her the keys. She took care of everything for us. She picked the ﬂooring materials and the color of the walls for our remodeling process. Her contractors did 1/3 of the price for everything comparing what other companies have asked for. She is friendly, hard worker, very responsive, and understandable. Cannot be happier with her.

SELLER

Sandy was perfect in every way. She had a very good knowledge of the local market. She was very kind and friendly apart from being great at her job. She always gave us good advice but at the same time she would listen to the things we suggested and supported us very well. We had quite a few last minute glitches with new issues coming up at our house that needed to be ﬁxed before open house and she was always accommodative and had a sense of humor about it. In fact, the people who were in her network doing the ﬁxing, staging etc. were equally professional. We loved working with Sandy as while house selling is a stressful environment, it does not have to give you a heart attack in the process :) And Sandy understood that and shared inputs and made the entire selling process seamless.

SELLER

I just closed on a sale with Sandy and she is a dream to work with! From the listing preparation to the close of escrow, Sandy works diligently and always has my best interest at heart. Within a day of listing on the market, Sandy managed to get 2 very strong preemptive offers for me, both well exceeded my expectations. Sandy negotiated with the buyer to make sure that we took the highest offer with the best terms. The transaction was a tough one due to some unforeseen issues, but I'm so grateful that Sandy was always there for me to look out for my best interest and to help me ﬁgure out the best solution. We ﬁnally closed on the sale and I couldn’t have done it without Sandy!

Timing of Buyer Activity

A property receives the most trafﬁc within the ﬁrst few weeks of hitting the market. It is important to get the price right in order to gain the attention of interested buyers and maximize your home's position in the market.

Using competitive analysis, market research, and Compass’ suite of AI-powered tools, we recommend a price for your property to generate the most activity and offers early on before buyers move on to newer listings.

If the asking price is too high, then the property appeals to fewer buyers.

Private Exclusive Coming Soon

A Private Exclusive listing is an off-market home that can be shared by a Compass agent with their Compass colleagues directly. Property details aren’t disseminated and won’t appear on public home search websites. Listing your home as a Private Exclusive allows you to control what information is shared while still getting exposure to top agents at Compass.

Compass Coming Soon gives us valuable opportunities to market your property while building anticipation among potential buyers and pressure-testing our pricing strategy all without accruing days on market.

Marketing your home

At The Oldham Group, we put an emphasis on modern marketing, taking a multi-pronged approach to the digital promotion of your property. This starts with a professional property website to properly showcase your home to interested buyers online.

The frst thing we do before marketing is Identify the buyer persona. For example, a Silicon Valley engineer with a net worth of $3M who likes mountain biking and comic-con. Then, we create marketing that will attract that buyer persona to your lising.

WEBSITE

2701 Witheridge Road

The property website includes photos, videos, virtual tours, listing details and has the ability to submit contact information as an interested buyer.

LEAD GENERATION LABS ADVERTISING

Enhanced Targeting allows us to target consumers based on the sites they visit and the apps installed on their phone. By narrowing down to profession-specifc sites and apps, we can effectively target any profession or interest you can imagine.

PROPERTY

Just Just Listed

We run website traffc ads through Facebook and Instagram to drive visitors to the page. These ads are live for the duration of the listing and are updated with status changes such as “Coming Soon,” “Just Listed,” and “Price Reduction.

EMAIL MARKETING

We also target the listing area through email campaigns. These emails are sent for each status change on your listing and are full of information for potential buyers. When sending these emails, we create a list of potential leads in the area through a mix of home buyers in our team database as well as local homeowner leads from a third party real estate farming tool.

GOOGLE ADS

To top off our digital listing campaign, we create and publish Google Display and Search advertisements. Very similar to the social media ads, these content pieces are posted for status changes. They drive traffc to the property website as all of the digital.

01Let’s Talk

Meet with your Compass agent to discuss your plans and goals, trends in the current marketplace, and assess your property’s qualities and characteristics. Your Compass agent will analyze comparable property sales, assess the competition, work with you to determine pricing strategy, and outline a strategic plan to achieve the best possible result for you as a seller.

02 Setting the Stage

From applying a fresh coat of paint to rearranging furniture, your Compass agent will ensure that the property is visually ready for showing. Your agent will schedule a professional photo shoot, commission an illustrative ﬂoor plan, and prepare a listing description. At this time, you should also sit down with your agent and complete the Seller Disclosure documents that will be necessary for the transaction.

03 Going Live

The listing is broadcast on Compass.com and sent across our 100+ partner sites for the duration of the selling process.

04

Spreading the Word

The Compass marketing team produces beautiful print collateral to strategically showcase your property. Your agent develops and executes an intelligent, effective paid marketing plan in relevant publications. Eye-catching property signs are produced and placed outside your property.

05

Making Connections

Your agent continuously leverages professional contacts and the Compass Network Tool to ﬁnd ideal buyer brokers. Open houses are hosted for both brokers and clients on an ongoing basis.

06

Building a Strategy

Your agent conducts an assessment of the market response within the ﬁrst 30 days of your listing going live. Feedback from agents and buyers is aggregated, and the listing strategy revised if needed.

07 Communication

You and your Compass agent will establish the best method and frequency of communicating as the process unfolds. Your agent will provide you with regular feedback and will keep you updated with continuous trafﬁc metrics and information from the market.

08 Negotiations

Once we receive an offer, your agent will contact you to review the terms of the offer and analyze the pros and cons. Together you will decide how to respond to the buyer in one of several ways: by accepting the offer, rejecting the offer, or making a counter offer.

Escrow

Once a contract has been agreed to and signed by all parties, an escrow will be opened and the buyer’s contingency period will begin. Timelines for the completion of buyer and seller responsibilities will be listed in the purchase contract and adhered to in the escrow. Your Compass agent will keep a close eye on the timelines and ensure that you are in compliance with your responsibilities, while also holding the buyer’s side to task to keep the process moving.

10 Closing

Your Compass agent will monitor and coordinate all the details necessary to get you to the ﬁnish line. Once the buyer has performed their inspections, removed their contingencies, and the loan (if any) is ready to fund, your agent will arrange the ﬁnal walk-through. At or near this time the escrow will close, payment will be made, and the keys will be handed over to the buyer.
