How many transactions do you average per year?
How many days do your listings average on the market?
What percentage of the asking price do the homes you list sell for?
Many of the answers you receive may surprise you. Results speak for themselves. And when it comes to making one of your most important financial transactions, I take this responsibility to heart.
Historically, my listings sell on average for 99.52% of the list price. The average time on the market is 20.69 days. Other top agents have figures of 93.32% and 31.93 respectively. What do these statistics mean to you? They mean I’m able to get the price you want in the time frame you need.
For over 25 years, I’ve been meeting with clients who express the same concerns and stress when selling their home. While the questions may vary to some degree, the bottom line remains the same - VALUE!
• What is my home worth?
• What will the market bear?
• Is this the best time to sell?
• How long will my home take to sell?
• How much will this cost?
• How are YOU going to get me top dollar?
While no one can predict exactly what the real estate market will do, having a successful marketing strategy is the key to success. Being a top real estate agent does not happen overnight. Building a strong reputation doesn’t either. I’ve based my business on results and integrity. I would feel fortunate for an opportunity to earn your trust and business.
