Listing Agent Good Practices
Experience Matters When Selling Your Home
The success of a property’s sale begins with the preparation before it’s on the market and continues with close attention and organization throughout the sales process.
A successful sale isn’t only about the final sales price!
Success also includes the smoothness and execution of the transaction for both the sellers and the buyers.
For creating a smooth sales process, preparing the property before it's listed is very helpful.
I’ve outlined two crucial elements of preparing a property for sale, including organizing the home’s documents and preparing it to achieve its actual value.
However, it’s not only about this initial preparation.
Below is an outline of the action elements for agents listing a property in Summit County and Fairplay:
-
Prepare an accurate Current Market Analysis to advise on the home’s selling price.
-
Ensure the property is prepared and staged for achieving its actual value.
-
Recommend professionals for any repairs or servicing the home may need before the home is listed.
-
Ensure the documents for the home are prepared and organized before the home is listed.
-
Have an established marketing process and plan for the home.
-
Staying proactive and diligently focused on the property while it’s listed.
-
Communicate feedback from the showings to the sellers.
-
Be an experienced negotiator to assist the sellers when offers are made on the home.
-
After the property has gone under contract, staying closely on top of all deadlines and advising the sellers on matters arising during the sales process.
-
Ensure that all items for closing are organized and completed.
-
Perform any post-closing duties, if needed.
