Here are a couple of things to keep in mind when listing your property for sale:
1. The Curb AppealMaintaining your landscape to a pristine state, and adding small creative touches to your yard, like colorful annuals, will create an immediate impact on any passers by and potential buyers.
Simple improvements to your property like landscaping, sealcoating your driveway, and a fresh coat of paint outside will instantly brighten up the property. When painting inside special care should be taken to choose colors that will appeal to most people.
Keep your property neat, smelling sweet and well lit on all floors. Be particular about details: put away the kitty litter, gather the pet toys, place some fresh flowers near the entry, bake a batch of cinnamon rolls in the oven, clean your carpets. Your agent will look over the property before it is listed to be sold to find any ways with which you can improve on the staging of your property.
We are thoroughly familiar with all the legal processes involved in disclosures and are ready to help you create a detailed disclosure statement that will benefit both you and the buyer. We will also suggest any home improvement measures before placing your property on the market to maximize potential profit.
Potential purchasers and their agents will request showings through on our online scheduling system. You as the seller will be notified of the showing request through email and text message once a showing is confirmed a Garry Real Estate representative will call back to confirm the appointment with the buyers agent and walk them through all of your homes special features.
The well known adage “The higher the price, the better the offer,” is misleading. Price is not always the main determining factor when accepting an offer for several very important reasons: as a rule, the initial offer is usually not final, and there are a number of terms and conditions that may determine the final outcome of a price. You can trust our agents to help you thoroughly evaluate and peruse every proposal without compromising your position as a seller.
It is our ethical responsibility to fairly negotiate contractual terms, and we take that responsibility very seriously. It is our job to find the win-win agreement that is beneficial to all parties involved. You may have to deal with several different offers before deciding on the offer that is the best for you. As your agents, we always guarantee a thorough and objective assessment of each offer to help you make the correct choice.
We are there to help you should the unforeseen issue pop up. In case something at the property breaks or some other minor detail rises up there is no need to worry. These things happen. We know how to handle them efficiently and in a stress free manner.
The closing agent will furnish all parties involved with what is called a settlement statement. The settlement statement summarizes and details all the financial transactions enacted in the process. You and the buyer, or buyers will sign the statement together with the closing agent, certifying its accuracy. If you are unable to attend the scheduled closing, arrangements can be made depending on the circumstances and the notice you give us. If you are receiving the funds to the transaction, you can choose to either have the funds wired electronically into the aforementioned escrow account, or receive a certified bank check to the closing in the amount specified on the settlement statement. The seller will usually arrange to have all property keys and any other important information and items for you at the closing so that you may receive them at this time.
