Frequently Asked
Questions
How to pick
the right
agent?
Ask your friends and family for a referral is a good place to start. Meet with potential agents, ask questions and see how they communicate and disseminate information. They are guiding you through a very important step and you need to be able to trust them 100%. Meeting over a coffee is a good way to get to know a real estate agent before you enter into a contract. Hiring a good agent will make all the difference.
What is my property
value?
The value of a property is an evidence based assessment of a property. It’s determined by statistical comparison, assessing the replacement costs and the potential income of the property. An asking price however can be a very different number from the appraised or the assessed value of a property. I like to refer to an asking price as a marketing price. When assessing a property’s marketing price, the market conditions, the property characteristics and the challenges all need to be taken into consideration when assessing the property and determining a strategy to achieve the highest selling price.
How can
I sell for
the highest value?
You can sell your property for the highest price by developing a strategy to achieve these goals taking into consideration the current marketing conditions and the property's advantages and disadvantages. You will need a very proactive real estate agent who is experienced with strategy development, preparation, marketing, and execution.
What costs should I consider?
When selling your most important asset, the largest expense incurred are real estate commissions, which are essentially paid with the funds flowing from the buyer. Hiring the wrong real estate agent and employing the incorrect strategy can reduce the funds received from the buyer. There are also legal fees, and moving costs to consider. Depending on your property and the strategy you employ, there may also be minor repairs to cover, property staging, plus a survey or a condominium status certificate may be required.
