Questions to Ask Every Agent Before Listing Your Home
Scan code to shop for homes now!
As encouraging news of the reviving housing market gains momentum, many homeowners will again consider selling their home. If you’re like most sellers, a home is your single largest financial asset, and the commission paid to a real estate professional is substantial. Therefore, you should have high expectations of an agent, and fully understand the strategies and tools they use to market your home. To be sure your home is sold quickly and for the best price, ask an agent these questions before listing your home with them:
1
How will you market my home to local buyers?
4
Real estate remains hyper local. In 2012, the National Association of REALTORS® reported that home buyers only moved about 12 miles from their previous residence. That means there is a very good chance the buyer of your home lives in your town or one nearby. Buying a home is not an impulse purchase and it takes about three months from the time a buyer starts their search to signing a contract. During that time, they continue to work, shop, eat, and play in areas immediately adjacent to your home and community. Ask your agent what their plan is to reach out to that local buyer.
2
How will you market my home to out of market buyers?
Your home’s price and community could attract relocating buyers. Listing your home on one of the many free Internet listing services like Realtor.com, Trulia.com or Zillow.com is a good starting point, much like a phone book listing, but it requires a buyer seek out the site, and sift through search results to find your home, which it’s not an aggressive marketing program. To get the best results, successful agents must use outbound marketing and other forms of media to reach out to buyers in other areas.
3
How will you market my home to other local top agents?
Holding open houses is always a good investment. Both agents and local home shoppers can actually see the unique character of your home versus just looking at online photos. It engages other local agents, which can also bring you a buyer more quickly. Additionally, professional quality printed materials like flyers and postcards keep your home in front of them long after they walk out the door.
What types of media will you use to advertise my home?
In today’s multi-media world advertising is everywhere, and the way consumers find information is constantly changing. Be cautious of agents who use only the web to market your home. Your agent must understand the importance of multiple media, like social media, mobile apps, text codes, local real estate magazines, direct mail and other printed materials to actively reach out to buyers everywhere – not just passively hoping for buyers to find your listing online.
5
How are you going to realistically price my home?
Pricing a home requires an intimate knowledge of the market to get it right. You want to get the best price, but there can be a disconnect between your expectations as a seller and the price for which your home will realistically sell. If an agent overprices your home, it may ultimately sell for less than it would have if priced correctly from the beginning. It could also create conflict with the bank’s appraisal when the buyer tries to secure a mortgage. Ask to see a comparison of list price, sold price, and number of days on market for your agent’s ten most recent transactions. Homes that sit on the market too long and go through multiple price reductions are typically overpriced. Calculate the commission you pay to get your home sold and we think you will agree that you have the right to expect a very aggressive campaign. The best agents in your town will meet or exceed the expectations that we’ve laid out here and you deserve to work with only the best.

“Can You Spot the $201,576 difference in these identical Puget Sound Area homes?” Did you spot it? Here’s a hint: it isn’t the roofing shingles or the special nails. It isn’t the gold-plated faucets... or anything you could even see with the naked eye. The difference between these identical Puget Sound homes is that any US citizen or permanent resident alien 62 years old or better can buy this $419,950 home with $201,950 and no monthly payment (not including taxes and insurance) as long as they live in the house. For instance, the house in the picture above qualifies for this program. It’s a beautiful 3 bedroom, new construction home right here in the Puget Sound region. It’s in a quiet neighborhood of new homes and close to shopping, medical facilities, recreational activities and more. New Government Backed Program It’s part of a new government backed mortgage program that allows Americans over the age of 62 to buy retirement homes in Washington with 50% down and never have a mortgage payment as long as they live in the home. The home-
buyer is only responsible for tax and insurance payments. You can use this program to purchase virtually any single family home, condo; even multi- family homes up to 4 units! Mobile homes are also okay as long as they were built after 1978. There are no income qualifications for the program. The only requirements are that you are at least 62 years old, have a cash down payment no more than 50%, and are not in the middle of a foreclosure, had recent a short sale of an FHA loan, or have an open bankruptcy. Free Report with all the details It’s easy to find out more information about this Government backed mortgage program. You can get a Free Report with all the details by going to: www.NoHousePayment62.com/np2 or just call 1-253-777-3672 x 10 for a 24-Hour Free Recorded Message.
