A FOCUS ON YOUR HOME
LUXURY MARKETING FOR YOUR HOME
THE OBJECTIVE Our mutual objective is to sell your home: FOR THE HIGHEST PRICE › IN THE SHORTEST AMOUNT OF TIME › WITH FAVOURABLE TERMS Prior to any marketing strategies being implemented, it is critical to go through a process of discovery determining the fair market value, understanding the barometer of current market conditions, and reviewing the variety of factors that will help us prepare your home for sale. Selling luxury homes requires a different level of expertise and strategy, and exceptional marketing to the right buyers is key to maximizing the true value of your home. Typically, market conditions are not in your control but choosing an agent who has extensive experience in the local market, a respected reputation, and implements a proven comprehensive marketing strategy can make all the difference in MAXIMIZING THE TRUE VALUE OF YOUR HOME.
MARKET FACTORS: Price Terms Condition Marketing Programs Value
CONTROLLED BY: Seller Seller Seller Mary Ann Turrie & RE/MAX Real Estate Mountain View Buyer/Market Conditions
LUXURY MARKETING FOR MAXIMUM EXPOSURE Selling your home can be a very exciting experience, but it can also be an emotional one. As your real estate professional, I have found the best way to sell a home is through partnership and teamwork — combining the understanding of your requirements and goals with my knowledge, expertise, effective marketing strategies, and extensive brokerage resources. TOGETHER WE WILL: • Prepare for the “Window of Opportunity” • Leverage the attributes of your location • Prepare and present your home ready for sale • Highlight your home’s features through professional photography • Showcase your home to the market through professional and strategic marketing • Maximize the exposure of your home through our extensive network • Leverage the brokerage’s reputation and recognition • Cooperate and communicate to maintain your home’s perception of value • Promote your home locally, nationally, and internationally • Maximize your home’s web exposure • Prepare your home so that it is always ready to be shown to potential buyers • Discuss and review the market’s analysis of your home — feedback is essential to knowing the perceived value and potential for negotiation • Finalize your sale • Find your next dream home
THE WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY The “Window of Opportunity” is the period in which your home will receive its maximum exposure — typically when your home is new on the market. In order to capitalize on this window, it is crucially important that your home is ready for sale: priced at Fair Market Value, prepared to showcase its features and attributes, and a marketing strategy is implemented to further increase its exposure.

MARKETING YOUR LOCATION According to real estate convention, the three most important criteria to consider when buying a property are: L OCAT ION, L O CAT ION, LOC ATION . In fact, buyers are often attracted to a general location, a neighbourhood, or even a certain street, well before settling on a specific home. Understanding your location’s positives and negatives are important when determining price, and are very significant in the marketing of your home. Misconceptions, preconceptions, and knowing the nuances of your home can make a significant difference in how a home is marketed, when it’s shown, and how it is positioned — one man’s displeasure can be another’s delight!
PREPARE TO PRESENT YOUR HOME First impressions are lasting. Preparing your home is one of the most difficult, emotional, and critical steps to maximizing its value — together we will review, recommend, prepare, and create an environment that is appropriate for the type of buyer looking to purchase your home. No matter how stunning, loved, or well maintained your home, it is important that you view it with critical objectivity and whether it needs simple changes or major repairs, these should be addressed before the home is listed for sale. PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY Photography must reflect your property. Whether print or web, these photos are often the first impression that a potential buyer will receive. Take advantage of new technology to showcase the true essence of the property within its environment, especially since your buyer is likely to be from outside your local area. Lifestyle videos provide a realistic depiction of the intended space and livability. A photo shoot is the time when a home must shine — both figuratively and literally. A fully prepared home, clean, tidy, with clear sight lines, and shot in its best natural light will speak volumes to the viewer before and after the home is visited.

PROFESSIONAL AND STRATEGIC MARKETING Sophisticated and professionally prepared marketing is essential to maximizing your home’s exposure and requires more than just listing the property for sale on the Internet and REALTORS® listing service; it needs to be a carefully prepared, strategically implemented plan. Your home must become a highly prized item, launched on the market with maximum impact, to create the right exposure and reach the right buyers. YA R D SIGNS A ND DIR ECTIONA L SIGNAGE The trusted yard sign is the #1 way to show your home is for sale. It is fast, effective, and easy to spot. Directional signs help guide people to the home. PU BLIC A ND PR I VATE SHOW INGS Broker tours and Open Houses are ways that other real estate agents see your home and recommend it to their potential buyers. This is why preparing the home is so important — sometimes real estate agents are more particular than buyers. LU X U RY A DV ERTISING For luxury homes, local advertising is not sufficient - these unique homes need exposure to the elite and discerning. We showcase your home to these affluent buyers through publications such as The Wall Street Journal, Unique Homes, DuPont Registry, Ocean Homes, The RE/MAX Collection Magazine, and the James Edition.

PROFESSIONAL PRINTING AND DIRECT MAIL The power of showcasing your home and its unique features through professional photography and sophisticated marketing materials is crucial to setting your home apart from the competition. Professional promotional materials that feature your home and are mailed to your neighbors, buyers, and other real estate professionals are some of the most powerful ways to spread the message that your home is for sale. Your neighbors will be first to tell their friends and family about your home — they already love their community so they are your biggest advocates! Also, knowing where the potential buyers are locally is powerful — after all, 78% of homeowners purchase within close proximity of their present home.

SHOWING THE HOME Your home needs to be ‘show-ready’ at all times — this can be difficult to balance if you are still living in the home. However, we should ensure preparations are done up front — unnecessary items removed, space has been created, and a plan implemented for the best times to show the home, then the final prep and inviting touches are easy for us to add around your busy schedule. Each and every buyer will be pre-qualified. During the showing, a fully guided tour will be provided to ensure that the features and nuances are showcased and explained to maximize the value of perception.
MARKET ANALYSIS The market analysis report is compiled from a system that tracks your showings, all real estate professional and buyer feedback, as well as our marketing effectiveness on your home. This report provides you with an in-depth analysis and a comprehensive list of actions, recommendations, and objectives.
FINALIZING THE SALE A myriad of details must be attended to before the sale becomes final including offers, counter offers, inspections, disclosures, contingencies, loan documents, insurance, mortgage approval, and escrow items. This final step can be overwhelming with all its moving parts. Whatever the next step may be, know that I am here to guide you through this final process — to keep in constant communication, track the proceeding, and to keep things on schedule.

DEFINING YOUR GOALS AND OPTIONS In the search for your perfect home, we must define the goals and reassess your requirements so that we approach the search with complete insight. This will enable the creation of an appropriate action plan and expected timeline. • • • • • • •
Where are you thinking of moving — local or out of state? Do you have a budget? What do you and your family need from your next home? Are you looking for a turnkey or renovation property? What are your essential requirements during our search? Are there any additional financial considerations? When is the ideal time for you to move?
This information will enable a qualified search. Equally, it is important to ensure that we research the true value of homes and that their current selling price reflects an amount that the property is “worth” to you.
LOCATING THE RIGHT PROPERTY When helping you look for a property, I will make recommendations based on my experience and local knowledge, in addition to having access to a variety of technology, a wide network of area agents, and homes not yet on the market. A comparison chart and thorough objective inspection of each home, combined with such factors as market data and resale potential, will help in narrowing your search. By building a checklist, we can better evaluate each home and review together the important criteria of homes visited. And when you find that perfect home, I will help negotiate the best offer based on the condition of the home, length of time it’s been on the market, activity, location, and urgency of the seller. Ultimately, I will protect and represent your best interests.
