The truth is: Homes sell themselves! If your home is marketed visibly for sale, it will sell promptly for the same reasons you bought it: You liked it, it was in the right location, it had your desired schools, it was in good shape, and...it was the right price.
Every experienced listing agent knows this, and wants to sell your home for the highest price possible, with your lowest equity loss possible, in the shortest time possible, with the least stress and inconvenience possible...and with no compromise of your success. But just listing on the MLS isn't enough, which is why flat-fee might not accomplish the job of selling your home. And we're not going to confuse you with a cafeteria plan. Our offer is simple, straightforward and clear:
1) We counsel the correct market pricing on the value of your home, based on a demonstrated Competitive Market Analysis of the homes that have sold in your neighborhood recently, or refer you to an independent Licensed North Carolina Appraiser. Our company policy requires Appraiser measurements of your floorplan.
2) We direct the most effective staging of your home, just like you see on HGTV and TLC, and photograph your home in the most attractive way possible...
3) List your home on the Multiple Listing Service worded effectively to market to the 5,000+ army of Buyer Agents who might have a buyer seeking your home, and place a combination lockbox on your home for their appointments.
4) We place our visible sign in front of your home routing calls directly to ONE personal cell phone, NOT to an irritating never-ending, dead-end office answering system.
5) We place our flyer box in front of your home. Yes, we can provide detailed, compelling, colorful "brochures", but candidly, most go to your neighbors or to the floorboards of cars, don't they? We can do "email flyers" for an additional fee, but more candidly, it's spam.
6) Direct buyers to your YouTube Video - the internet's best alternative to ineffective open houses. Of course, you'll be featured on "hundreds" of other agents' sites through Internet Data Exchange, PLUS all applicableportals listed above.
7) Statistical reports and charts of your online viewings are available to you, and we provide you direct agent feedback access to Centralized Showing Service’s “Seller's Feedback” right here on our website with your own password, so that you can read courteous Buyer Agents’ comments, exactly as they provide it after showing your home. Be forewarned: Feedback may help you understand why your home isn't getting an offer (pricing, layout, etc) but 99% of "feedback" is a "Dear John" letter!
8) We pursue proactively any expressed interest in your home (2nd showings, questions, etc), and negotiate successfully in your best interest, the ONLY contact that really matters - the offer - to your satisfaction, personally managing each detail leading to closing.
Make no mistake...
Real estate professionals provide valuable services.
 And we provide more than the average. If you want to save equity, we are offering a cost-effective alternative to having a high-overhead franchise on the sign or a flat fee walk-away listing. You'll be pleased with superior full real estate service results at a reduced commission marketing fee. Thinking of For Sale By Owner? It's not easy to sell homes for anyone in today's market. Take a look at these February 2010 Triangle real estate market statistics. The nation's freeze has reached the warm shores of our virtual oasis. We will recover before the rest of the country, but no one is going to pay you more today than your neighborhood comparables support. Most unsold houses are priced too high.
$100,000 home x 3.5%
= $ 3,500
- 2.5% ($2,500*)
= $1,000
...our 1% total fee for real estate marketing services rendered.
How can Find My Dream Home provide full-service marketing at that reduced fee?
Because we're an independent brokerage, we don't pay excessive franchise fees, and we don't waste money on ineffective advertising with low return on investment when Raleigh and Cary homes for sale are being searched on Google right this minute.
Is there any reason not to choose Find My Dream Home
to market your home full service in the Triangle MLS?
The answer is no, simply. It's easier to price your home competitively when you're not losing all your equity. But it's critically important that our fair commission marketing fee for comprehensive real estate services enables your competitive pricing, from the first day of listing!
There’s no problem in real estate that price can’t fix. You need to drop your bait in the water where the fish are swimming, not above the market price level. That doesn’t mean you sink your price right to the bottom feeders. If this isn't clear enough, call Mark right now at 919-796-7919 .
You'll be glad you found Find My Dream Home®!
*Remember: 2.5% minimum of that 3.5% compensates the diligent efforts of the Buyer Agent who will likely bring your buyer... The costs for your marketing efforts listed above are paid by us from the remaining 1%! That's why we may not market all listings presented to us for consideration. We generally market 3 homes at a time, maximum. By law, commissions are negotiable. The commission % comparisons here are for illustration purposes.
