QUESTIONS ASKED IN THE FIRST THIRTY DAYS
Q: If my property sells quickly, does that mean it's priced too low?
A: No. That means we quickly reached our target audience and were able to convey the value clearly and accurately.
Q: How will we know if we are priced correctly for the market?
A: Aside from a focus on buyer feedback and broker commentary, we carefully monitor internet response through on-line hits, click throughs and post engagement. We understand the big picture of how your property fits into our local market and after the first 10-15 days we evaluate whether or not you are priced appropriately or if an adjustment is advised.
Q: How will
you schedule showings?
A: We use a dedicated company called Broker Bay to schedule our showings. They have a professional on-call every day, including nights and weekends to make sure all requests are answered promptly. You will receive an email, phone call or text message (or a combination—your choice!) so that you can approve the date and time before a showing is confirmed.
Q: How soon
can I expect to receive feedback?
A: As soon as the potential buyers leave your house we start to reach out for feedback! If your showing is over a weekend we frequently find that buyers’ agents don’t respond to requests until they are back in the office on Monday. Regardless, our efforts begin immediately and include emails, texts and phone calls until we have information to report to you.
