SELLING YOUR HOME
October 21, 2015 Dear Dhiaa: Thank you for taking the time to speak with me regarding the home you have for sale at 11 Whipporwill Drive in Shelton. I look forward to speaking with you on Saturday and discussing how I can sell your home quickly and for more money than you would on your own, or with another Realtor. What am I going to do differently? SELL YOUR HOME AND FOR MORE MONEY THAN ANYONE ELSE. It is my hope that when we talk, you will clearly see that I am not your typical Realtor, in fact I often dub myself the “Anti-Agent.” I will get straight to the point discussing your personal and financial goals and my ability to help you reach those goals. In lieu of the “dog and pony” show most Realtors rely on to sell themselves, I will provide facts, share my experience, and review market statistics so you can make a GREAT business decision. I choose to only work with people who are willing to commit to me and I have no desire to pursue you as a seller if I don't think I can sell your home. To that end, I have enclosed my marketing plan to further demonstrate that I am very sincere… what you see is what you get. Of course I will go above and beyond that plan to get your home sold and we will talk more about that on Saturday. Should you have any questions or need to reach me, my number is 203-767-3512. I appreciate the opportunity to earn your business and will speak with you Saturday at 2:30pm. Sincerely, Danielle Rownin

Danielle Rownin, Realtor® Co-President of Rownin Associates Keller Williams Realty
Allow me to introduce myself, I am Danielle Rownin and I have been selling real estate in Connecticut since 2002. Keller Williams Realty has been my home since 2007 and I can’t imagine being affiliated with any other company. I have closed 38 transactions so far this year and have 4 pending. My current business is 60% listings40% buyers, and I service all of Fairfield County, lower New Haven County, and the Naugatuck Valley in Connecticut. NOW is a GREAT time to sell your home!
DANIELLE ROWNIN Rownin Associates
I was born into the real estate business and know first-hand how important it is to build relationships on a foundation of trust and integrity. Before pursuing real estate full-time, I honed my public relations and marketing skills at some of the world’s top marketing firms (FleishmanHillard, Ketchum) and brought that valued experience to my real estate career. I offer full-time attention and dedication to my clients’ home buying and selling efforts and am an artful negotiator, providing first-rate representation. I completed my bachelor's degree in Mass Communication at Boston University and have also completed graduate studies in the fields of marketing and business. In my spare time, you can find me “shaking it up” at a Zumba class or volunteering at my childrens’ school as president of the PTO. I lives in Monroe with my husband (and business partner Matt) and our two children.

PRICING
PRICE RIGHT – ATTRACT BUYERS
•
Pricing your property competitively will generate the most activity from agents and buyers.
•
Pricing your property too high may make it necessary to drop the price below market value to compete with new, well priced listings.
PRICING MISCONCEPTIONS
•
The value of your property is determined by what a buyer is willing to pay and a seller is willing to accept in today’s market.
•
Buyers make their pricing decision based on comparing your property to other properties SOLD in your area. Historically, your first offer is usually your best.

PRICE COMPETITIVELY – THE FIRST 30 DAYS ARE CRITICAL
STEP-BY-STEP MARKETING PLAN FOR YOUR HOME
Purpose: To establish a marketing plan with the ultimate goal of selling your home for the highest price that the market will allow in the shortest period of time possible. The following is a sampling of services and actions we take to successfully market your property. We will: • Price your home strategically so you're competitive with the current market and current price trends. • Stage your home to cast a positive light on the features most important to buyers: uncluttered rooms and closets, fresh paint, and terrific curb appeal. • List your home on BOTH the Consolidated Multiple Listing Service (CMLS), the Fairfield County Regional multiple listing service AND the Connecticut Statewide MLS (CTMLS). Listing your home on 2 separate MLS services exponentially increases your exposure to prospective buyers. • Place "For Sale" signage on your front lawn with our direct phone number (not the office’s) so that we can effectively manage all buyer inquiries, provide accurate information, and personally invite them to take a private tour of your home. • Conduct a broker’s open house to introduce your home to the brokerage community, distributing marketing materials and obtaining feedback from the attending Realtors. This extra service provides brokers ample time to view the features of your home and allows time to review the benefits with each agent. • Optimize your home's internet presence by posting information in the Keller Williams Listing System (KWLS) as well as Realtor.com, Trulia, and Zillow. Zillow is quickly becoming the number one website for buyers. Other websites where your home will be featured include, but are not limited to, Craigslist, Facebook, FrontDoor, HotPads, Oodle, Twitter, Vast, Yahoo Real Estate, and Google. • Conduct Public Open Houses (at the seller’s discretion) and publicize them on KW.com as well as multiple other real estate website including, but not limited to, Realtor.com, Craigslist, Facebook, FrontDoor, HotPads, Oodle, Twitter, Vast, Yahoo Real Estate, Zillow, and Google.
STEP-BY-STEP MARKETING PLAN FOR YOUR HOME
• Design color information flyers for all potential buyers and their Realtors who show your home, listing key sales points to maximize their showing of your home. • Professional photography and virtual tour (as appropriate) of your home and place it on multiple websites to attract both local and out-of-town buyers. • Distribute "just listed" notices to neighbors to all neighboring streets as well as our extensive Buyer Database. Phone calls will also be made to the families in your neighborhood providing information on your home’s features. • Pre-qualify all buyers who present an offer. We make it a requirement that all offers are accompanied by a pre-approval from a lender whose reputation we know and trust. Prior to presenting you with an offer, we will proactively contact the buyer’s lender to ensure their purchasing ability. • Provide constructive feedback from brokers who show your home. We will continually evaluate the overall market situation and review this with you. • Target our marketing to active real estate agents who also specialize in selling homes in your neighborhood. • Advertise your home in our newsletter as well as direct-mail campaigns, email campaigns and social media. • Provide you with weekly updates detailing our marketing efforts, including comments from the prospective buyers and agents who have visited your home. • Prospect 3 Hours a Day through door-knocking and phone calling to neighbors, our past and present clients, brokers, attorneys and local business people that we regularly network with to generate maximum exposure to your home. An emphasis will be placed on out of town brokers (i.e. lower Fairfield County) who cannot find a property of this size and quality, for this price in their market. One-on-one contact is our strongest marketing tool. This list is not in order of importance. We are driven by a single goal - to make your home transaction as easy and stress free as possible, and to do it with honesty, integrity and fairness.
