Dear Valued Homeowner,

I would appreciate it if you would take a few minutes to review the contents of my Pre-Listing Information Package. I know it seems like quite a bit of your valuable time but your investment of just a few minutes now might give you just the information you need as you prepare to choose an agent to market and sell your home.

My Comprehensive Listing Presentation will provide you with :

• My Mission Statement
• Why Choose Me to Sell Your Home
• Get To Know Me
• Marketing Your Home
• Unique Marketing Strategies and Systems
• Internet Advertising
• My Service Warranty
• The Role Of A Real Estate Agent
• Pricing Your Home and Is your Price on Target
• How do I find Buyers for your Home
• Past Client Testimonials
• Contact Information
• How I Market to Other Agents in our Area
• My Statistics,  ( Days on the Market, Over -all performance )
• Current Market Conditions for our area
• Words of Wisdom

First, let me say that things have definitely changed in the Real Estate Market. The Internet is a key player in real estate sales. Buyers look to the Internet first when shopping for a home. So getting your home in front of an Internet audience is crucial. Newspaper advertising has taken a back seat to other forms of marketing. In fact, less than 6% of buyers find their home in the newspaper.

For more information on Why You should hire a Professional, please click on the graphic above to be taken to an overview of what I WILL do for you !

I am a full time agent. I have 5+ websites operating at all times. I have a 24 hour call system in place for you and a potential buyer. I have experience with tax-deferred exchange. I talk to over 25 people in a week. Over 100 in a month. I am working with 10 + buyers right now. I have had 0 listings expire . My listings sell within the first 6 months.

My Comprehensive Marketing Plan Starts With :

•  I provide you with 60 tips on Home Staging to raise the bar high against the competition.  
•  I offer a One Year Paid in Full at closing Home Warranty to the Buyer...at NO Cost to You !  
•  A Comparative Market Analysis of your home.

Setting the Price on Your Home :

• Location - Your homes setting and location influences it's value.  
• Condition - Our goal is to make your home as close to a model home as possible. Like builders would enhance their appeal with their model home. We too can increase your marketing time by being sure that your property is in the best possible condition.  
• Pricing - Your property has to be sold twice. Once to the buyer and once to the appraiser. I will use my experience to fine tune the price of your home by taking into consideration both of these variables.

Pricing Your Home Fairly :

We will take into careful consideration :  

1. Recent Home Sales
2. Pending Sales
3. Current listings
4. Square Footage
5. Age
6. Number of Rooms
7. Number of Bathrooms
8. Condition
9. Location
10. Amenities

Why you should price your home realistically :  

• Time - Chances are that your home will sell at it's fair market value.
• Pricing your home realistically at the beginning increases the likelihood of a timely sale.  
• Competition - Buyers educate themselves by viewing many homes. If your home is not competitive with what they have seen, your home will not sell.

Internet Advertising :

My unique marketing and advertising system is enhanced to get your home on top of Google and other search engines. My website for example allows me to keep track of all the unique visitors that come to my website looking for their new home.

My extensive marketing and advertising system reaches hundreds of potential buyers and on average 34 potential buyers weekly. Search engines such as Google and Yahoo benefit the sale of your home and capture the most "Hot Prospects". Forms of Internet Advertising I utilize to benefit the sale of your home are :

• Flyers
• Blogs
• Virtual Tours
• Postcards
• Specific sites as named above to market and advertise your home
• Website placement with Featured Enhancements

When a flyer is created for example it is immediately syndicated to several sites. For an example of a Real Estate Flyer please click the link : http://crossvilletnrealestateforsale.vflyer.com/1/index.html    A flyer just like this will be created for your home and syndicated to the sites you see above....Just to name a few.    

Finding buyers for your home contains several conventional and non- conventional methods. As shown above the non-conventional methods utilized often and consistently are through search engines and specific online marketing sites capturing the buyer audience.

On a more non-conventional method : getting your home out to other potential buyers consists of :

• Colored post -cards to Realtors within our area
• Colored Flyers to Realtors within our area
• Open House
• Blog Talk - This is a special feature introduce by our Realtor Association that allows Realtors such as myself to email your home directly to all the agents within our area.
