As a Realtor, there are many things I can do that separate me from other brokerages. Here are five examples to give you a glimpse of the full service I provide if you’re looking to list your house and get the highest price possible for it. First, having a larger brokerage means having more experience to draw from. There are old rules, and now there are new rules. Technology has come a long way, and my brokerage has more than 1,700 agents that I can talk to on a daily basis. We also have 32 offices here in Southern California. Second, I can maximize the demand for your home and get the most money from a buyer. 84% of buyers search for their next home online nowadays. With that, I can put you in our own buyer pipeline and reach out to the other agents in my sphere before the home even goes on the market.

Third, I can market with more than just 10 pictures and use a professional to do so. I have a professional photographer that takes more than 40 pictures for each listing. Those pictures are taken with a tripod. Three pictures are taken of each room and then blended together to give a fantastic view of the home and give the buyer a real sense of what each room looks like. I can also provide night shots, a videographer with a drone, and a voiceover video. Fourth, I can stage your home at a much higher quality. If the aesthetic of your home isn’t up to par with your competition, I can have a professional designer come to your house and give you recommendations on how your home can be staged, decluttered, cleaned up, and made to look like a model home for all of its open houses, broker previews, and any private showings. Lastly, I can utilize market trends to price your home. Getting the most money out of your home sale means knowing how and where your competition is pricing their homes and making sure our market trends for your specific city, neighborhood, and zip code will be priced right where the market is trending. Stay tuned for the next video of this series that will reveal more of what I can do that sets me apart from other brokerages. If you have any questions in the meantime, don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I’m here to help.

Today we are excited to talk about staging your home for sale. It’s an important step in any home’s preparation for the market, and knowing the right steps to take is crucial. We’ve got some great tips to help you get ready to sell right now.

The first thing we look for when staging a home is to see if it’s organized. We want your home to look almost like a model home, clean, organized, and free of personal items. By putting family photos and other things of that nature away, it helps the buyer see themselves living in the home.

We work with some great home stagers, and recommend that our sellers have a consultation with them. They are able to use your pre-existing furniture and decor and arrange it in an updated manner. They also may recommend adding some area rugs, natural lighting, or re-painting. They have an eye for what buyers are looking for.

For vacant properties, we like to use photographers. Once the company that we use has taken photos of your vacant home, we then add furniture in digitally to give it a better look online, where the buyers are.

Finally, make the home smell good. Eliminate pet odors and other bad scents by lighting candles or using air freshener. Be careful not to use too much, however, buyers might start to think you’re hiding something.

These are just a few of the top tips that we suggest you take into account when preparing your home to sell. If you have any questions for us, feel free to give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you!
