In my more than 15 years as a licensed real estate seller in New York State, I have often witnessed homeowners consider selling their homes and consider hiring the real estate agent who could best serve and represent them. your needs and requirements, which were overwhelmingly influenced by someone’s suggested listing price. Instead of focusing on what you could sell, as they often seemed to fail, realize that there is a big difference between an initial proposed price (offered and quoted) and the final price of the product. DIRTY! With that in mind, this article will attempt to briefly consider, examine, review, and discuss, using the mnemonic approach, what this means and represents, and why it is relevant and important to the home seller.
1. Strengths; sale; system; solutions; strategy: Sometimes an initial listing price is a well-considered strategic move, based on something specific about the property or the current real estate market. How does this particular house compare to its actual competition, in the specific area and style/size of the house? How could it be better marketed and represented, to maximize the impact of strengths, while minimizing and addressing areas of weakness? Is there a well-regarded system that pore over these details? The strategy should focus on the final solutions and achieve the best possible price, in the shortest possible time, with a minimum of hassle!
2. Attitude; fitness; attention; Share; trick: Hire an agent, with a positive, can-do attitude, and the well-developed set of skills and abilities, that best serves you and your personal needs, goals, and priorities! You must exhibit astute demeanor and foresight, while paying close attention to the big picture and proactively taking the right actions, which create significant positive results!
3. Listens; learn; lessons: If a homeowner is able to learn the lessons of those who have gone through this often stressful process, period, there are fewer surprises! Hire an agent who will listen to your specific situation, learn from you and your experience, and proceed in the best way for you!
Four. All; emphasis; empathy; efforts; endurance; Excellence: You need someone who will look at the bigger picture and focus on getting you the best price and terms for your personal situation! When you proceed, with the highest degree of genuine empathy, and place your emphasis accordingly, while doing your best, the owner benefits! Because there are often many obstacles and challenges throughout the process, the best agent perseveres, to persist when others give up. He will never settle for good enough, but must demand the highest degree of personal excellence from him, consistently and always!
It is not the price for which it is quoted, but the amount of the final DIRTY! Since, for most people, the equity in their home represents their single largest financial asset, doesn’t that make sense?
