I Don't Just List Homes...I Sell Them!

I am a New York State Licensed Associate Broker as well as a Full Service REALTOR®. I am a Full time, Licensed Associate Broker with over 27 years experience in the Real Estate industry with a team of qualified, experienced buyer's agents, ready to work with you. I would be honored to represent you for the sale of your current or purchase of your new home. Thank you for your consideration.

Sellers: Below are the steps I take to create a successful sale. A "Successful sale" is being there on time, on your schedule, with the fewest amount of inconveniences and getting the most money the market will allow.

Packaging the home for profit: When the for sale sign goes up in the yard, it's no longer a home, but a product for sale and you only get one chance to make a first impression. It is said that buyers buy with their eyes; they buy emotionally. There are 5 key elements to packaging your home for profit: Neutralize, Unclutter, Clean, Repair and Dynamize. Short term this will create more excitement, more showing and long-term, will create more value for the property. I will guide you through each of these steps.

Determining the best asking price: The best list price results in the best sales price. It is important to avoid underpricing and giving the property away or overpricing and scaring buyers away. If you over-price, you get what's called "market age". With market age, you lose the golden time, which is the first three weeks when 80% of the showings occur. I will determine the best price of you home through a market analysis.

Giving your property total market exposure: Your home will be marketed through the internet on howardhanna.com and syndicated to over 700 websites. Statistics show that over 90% of all buyers go through the internet before buying a home.

Multiple Listing Service: We will prepare detailed information which will appear in the Multiple Listing Service. At this point, all other agents will have access to the information to share with their buyers.

Promotion to other brokers: I will promote your property to other Brokers and Sales Associates in the area. The span of local brokers extends from Ithaca, Syracuse to Rochester.

Buyers:
If you are in the market, shopping for a home to buy, you should also be in the market shopping for a buyer's agent. Purchasing a home is a big financial commitment and often a daunting task to undertake. To protect your interests and assure that you make the best possible decisions, it's important that you have a realtor on your side who is an expert in the local real estate market. Let me know when you are ready to get started!
