    Dear Clients,
    Thank you for the opportunity to present my qualifications and marketing plan to sell your home.
    I think of my clients as individuals with specific needs, and my team and I strive to give you exceptional service. In response to the more challenging market we have experienced over the last few years, we have become more determined and assertive with marketing and technology. We focus on strategies to get your home sold as quickly as possible and get you the highest price possible. My promise to you is to devote the same level of care and attention to the sale of you home that I would use in selling my own.

    Questions

    Q: Can’t we save the commission by selling yourself?

    A: I agree you can save the commission by selling it yourself … are you aware that today over 15,000 homes are for sale … last month only 765 actually sold… that’s a 19+ month supply of homes … if no other homes come on the market … and … last month 1396 homes went on the market! And what’s worse … is the fact that only 2% of all For Sale By Owners sell themselves and 98% are listed and sold by real estate agents. Can you afford to have only a 2% chance of selling your property?

    Q: Why don’t we list high and come down later?

    A: I understand you want to list high, to leave room for negotiating and have you

    considered the problem that creates for you? Most people won’t even bother looking at

    properties that are priced too high. Would you rather have a bidding war on your home or not have an opportunity to negotiate any offers at all?

    Q: We have a friend in the business…

    A: I can appreciate that and almost everyone does. So let me ask you, do you absolutely have to sell this house or are you just looking to do your friend a favor?

    Q: The other agent said that they can help us get more money, why can’t you?

    A: I can appreciate that and what you probably don’t understand is that an agent that will list your property overpriced assumes they can take your listing now and then start

    beating you up on the price, week after week after week after week. Is that what you want? Who would? They’re afraid to tell you the truth up front.

    Q: What do you do to sell homes?

    A: That’s a valid concern. Let me ask you, are you aware that there are two kinds of real estate agents? There are passive and active, I am an active agent, meaning when you list your home with me, I will spend all of my time actively marketing your home to qualified buyers as well as the other active agents in town. Isn’t that what you want?
