SELLING
Get More with a Roar!
Needless to say, every seller wants to get top dollar for their home. At LAER, our agents work hard to get you more! But before we can put that “Sold” sign up on your lawn, we want to educate you about the many details that go into selling a home. From setting a listing price to staging your home to make it more attractive and “saleable”; from understanding the stringent legalities involved in a sale to dealing with the many emotions involved in leaving a home for a new one. We’re here to help you every step of the way. When you choose to work with us, we’ll provide you with an organized “Seller’s Checklist” to help you put together the items we will need to start the process – from copies of house keys to property-related documents – and advice on how to prepare your home for the market. We’ll give you a Personal Moving Checklist to make sure you’ve done things like notifying the post office of your address change and getting children’s school records. At LAER Realty Partners, we’re more than salespeople, we’re your partner as you move through one of the biggest financial transactions of your life.
Go with a Pro
Sellers often consider “going it alone” and trying to sell their homes without the help of a real estate agent. When they learn how complex and intimidating a real estate transaction can be, they often reconsider and enlist the services of a real estate professional. When we say that a real estate transaction is complex, that is no understatement. There are more than 145 steps to complete a real estate transaction. No need to panic. A skilled agent will use an organized step-by-step approach and guide you through the process. Another key advantage to working with LAER when selling is the far-reaching market exposure your home will receive through the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) and our own vast network of over 500 agents. More exposure often translates into more money for your home. With greater visibility, you’re more likely to find a buyer who is willing to pay your asking price.
If you are interested in selling your home, your first step should be to get a CMA - Comparative Market Analysis. This is a complete valuation of what other similar homes in your neighborhood have sold for. The CMA is most accurate when an agent has the ability to tour the property, but we can give you an initial evaluation if you answer a few quick questions below.
