Marketing Results

Why are we so effective in marketing our listings? Because our marketing plan addresses the Top 7 ways in which Buyers find information about the homes they ultimately purchase based upon national survey statistics. It is the same common sense marketing, based upon pareto analysis of statistical data, that every successful company does in their own target markets. Our target market is the Twin Cities residential real estate market. This is what we do and we are quite good at it.

Market Pricing

 

The higher the price above realistic market value, the fewer the buyers willing to consider the property. Pricing the property accurately and competitively will help attract the greatest number of potential qualified buyers and reduce the time on market.

 

Understanding Agency Relationships

MINNESOTA LAW requires that early in any relationship, real estate brokers or salespersons discuss with consumers what type of agency representation or relationship they desire. Click HERE for a thorough overview of the types of agency relationships within the State of Minnesota.

Staging a Home for Market

So what's the buzz about staging? You've all heard about it over the past couple of years. Staging involves the strategic placement of furnishings to accentuate a home's positive features. Staging is not interior design. It is all about showing off the best selling points of a home. Staging a home for the market can often reduce the selling time and help get the highest possible percentage of asking price during the negotiation. I recommend and use the services of Janice Bartone & Mary Heither at Interior Jam. In addition to the Twin Cities area, the work of Interior Jam can be found in locations such as New York City, Long Island, Panama City, Hilton Head Island, Washington D.C., Bethany Beach, Fort Meyers and Amelia Island. Janice and Mary have also been interviewed by HGTV's Dollars and Sense show. Let's talk about how staging might fit into our plan to get your home sold for the highest possible price in the shortest amount of time.

Janice & Mary also do interior redesign, assist in choosing paint colors, window treatments, flooring, fabrics and simplifying / organizing spaces - even shopping services. Contact them directly HERE.

Temporary Storage During a Move

One dilemma that every household move poses, especially to Sellers, involves what to do with all your "stuff" during the critical marketing phase of your property. Sometimes our homes just get overstuffed.You know that you need to make the home look as roomy as possible to sell more quickly, which generally leads to the conclusion that you must "de-clutter". Where can you possibly put all that stuff? One popular option today is to use PODS - Portable On Demand Storage. CLICK for a cute webmercial. They deliver a giant container to your home, which you load at your leisure. Then they will haul it away to their warehouse until your actual moving day and deliver it to your new home. We have arranged a discount for our clients on this service. Don't let little details like this overwhelm you during an emotionally stressful time. Click HERE for details on the discount service.
