How we helped Kim buy and sell a home using effective time management

"They were fabulous! Greg and Wendy were very attentive. They addressed all of our needs and concerns, and were always quick to answer phone calls and emails. They made sure that everything got addressed in a timely manner. Our original home sold very quickly based on the marketing plan Greg devised, and we were able to find a beautiful house that we loved! It was a wonderful experience, and I recommend them to all my friends."

How we helped Tanya sell her home using careful attention to the client’s needs

"We could not have had a better experience! I heard a friend mention their great experience with Greg, so I reached out to Greg and Wendy when we were selling our house. At our first meeting, we were very specific about what we were looking for in a home and in a Realtor, and Greg and Wendy listened intently. They took care of everything we needed!"

How we helped Michele with her transactions by guiding them through the process

"Our experience was absolutely incredible. Greg guided us through the whole process of selling our home at a time when the market was sort of iffy. We trusted him and his experience, and did everything he advised. The house sold in about five days! We even wound up with a full price offer! Greg and Wendy also helped us purchase a home. Buying a house is a stressful situation, but Wendy's relaxed demeanor and Greg's consistent updates turned it into an amazing process. We recommend Greg and Wendy to everybody we know!"

How we helped Chris sell a condo by always being available!

"I got great results with Greg and Wendy. My mother had passed away, and selling her condo seemed overwhelming at first. An overwhelming number of repairs needed to be made, but Greg and Wendy connected us with people who took care of everything! Greg and Wendy are both very down to earth and easy to talk to. Greg was very accessible, and he always answered any questions that I had. We wound up getting more than what we originally asked for! Bottom line, it was an excellent experience working with Greg and Wendy. "

How we helped Stefan with his real estate transactions by doing more than the average Realtor

 
"We used them as both a buyer’s and seller’s agent. The entire experience was nothing but absolute professionalism and organization. We were very impressed with Kime Realty. Greg met us at the house we were selling with a portfolio that included what houses were selling for in our area and things that were particular to us. Our house sold in 9 days so it was fantastic! It feels like everything they do is above and beyond and they do more than the average Realtor is required to do. The tools that they use to schedule appointments, sign documents, and accept appointments not only makes their lives easier, but it makes our lives easier. We never felt like we were on our own and at this point we feel like they’re friends of ours. I would absolutely recommend them to anybody!"

How we helped Donna sell her home by providing a superior experience

 
"I had awesome results! Our house went on the market on a Saturday and we had an offer on Sunday. I really feel that Greg was the one that sold our house. It was just an awesome experience and they even negotiated for us to have enough time to find another place. We were able to buy something else and move in before we needed to be moved out of our old house. The timing was perfect! They helped us with repairs, finding a handyman, and just everything down the line was superior. We’ve never had an experience like that with a Realtor before. "

Selling a home can be a stressful experience - but it doesn't need to be. Today, we're going to give you some advice on what to avoid when getting your home ready to sell. Armed with the right knowledge, you can avoid making the same mistakes many other homeowners make. 

One of the most crucial things to pay attention to is the condition of the home. The first thing buyers notice is what kind of shape the home is in. When we meet with our sellers, we determine whether we need the assistance of a licensed interior decorator or a home stager to get the most out of the sale.

During the initial meeting we also determine whether a property inspection is needed. This will help us determine the condition of the home and give us insight into the most effective way to stage. We want to have the condition ranked at a 9 or a 10 (other homes on the market will be less than that).

Location is also a huge factor when selling. Homes located in a nice cul-de-sac or on a street without much traffic, are better situated to fetch a high price than homes that are not in favorable areas. Keep in mind that where your home is located plays a role in how it's priced.

This takes us to yet another problem homeowners run into when selling. One of the biggest mistakes sellers make is overpricing their home. They will ask their agent to pull comparable home sales in the area to get an idea of how much their home is worth. The result is a range of values - if your home isn't within that range, there is going to be an issue. 

The key is to price the home to maximize its value. To do this, it helps to work with a real estate professional who has a good idea of what the market is willing to allow.

If you have any questions about how you can avoid these mistakes, or would like help making the most of your home sale, give us a call or shoot us an email. We would love to make the process as smooth as possible!

Thanks, and have a great day!
