This Blog Post Shares Three Reasons Why These 5 Boston-Based Home Owners Walked-Away With W-A-Y More Money At Closing — In Less Then 7  Days On The Market!

There has been awful lot of times throughout the calendar year of 2013 where I’ve had to pinch myself because my lead-flow, sales numbers, and momentum in the marketplace for my real estate business has NEVER been stronger than RIGHT NOW in my career.  However, this isn’t about me – I share this information because I’d like to “shine a light” on the top 3 things that I’ve been told I do differently than many other real estate agents in the Greater Boston/Metro-West area.

3 Reasons Why Our Homes Sell For Over The “Asking Price”

1. Have A Goal When You List Your Property – Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock or lost at sea for the last few months, you’ll MOST LIKELY find it impossible to argue with the onslaught of Real Estate experts that have deemed this most recent Real Estate ‘boom’ one of the most impressive profit pulling periods for folks listing their home in the Boston area in a long time!And to be R-E-A-L with you: I’d like to share a few key performance indicators of the last 5 property listings that my team at MedeasHomes.comhas seen through to the closing table.In total, there were 28 offers submitted on the last 5 homes we’ve listed.

   Next, and perhaps more impressive, the average days on market for these homes was a whopping six days. These are important statistics for two reasons: (1) it means that we are in the business of EFFECTIVELY marketing for each client we work with, and (2) Our marketing efforts have yielded similar results for the last 10 homes we’ve brought to market.

2.  Property Is Positioned Is Everything– When a property is listed, MANY agents rush erratically to get the property listed in all of the top “Real Estate search engines.”  Usually, sites like The Multiple Listing Service (MLS), Zillow, Trulia, Realtor.com, and a few others are where we are taught to go.However, if you’re looking to list your property, I’d kindly ask you to do me (and, of course, yourself a favor) and ask your agent who the ‘ideal’ buyer is for your home?  You wouldn’t believe me if I was to tell you some of the responses I’ve gotten for that one question – it’s crazy how the simplest of details get overlooked when listing a home.

   One of the first things we do with clients is work on their home’s Unique Selling Position (USP).  Here is a sample property description that performed exceptionally well when we listed it.  We received ample feedback about how a potential buyer could envision themselves in this home!!Sprawling, bright bungalow in a quaint family-friendly neighborhood is looking for the next set of smile faces to serve each day.  With over-sized rooms, brand-new tilt in windows, 3 season porch, and enormously cozy basement, family night will be more fun than ever.

   On the exterior, meticulous landscapes, a roof that’s 3 years old, plenty of off-street parking, and a fresh paint job will have your pulling up in awe of this nicely priced property for the right buyer.

3. Work With A WELL CONNECTED Agent – Based on results, I’m here to dispel a myth: there are more “weekend warrior” Real Estate agents than top-producers.  Not to be arrogant or pompous, but I attend at least 10 sales and marketing trainings each year.To compliment my professional training, I also belong to multiple organizations in both the business networking and Real Estate arena that provide me with the tools to have the “quiet confidence” I bring to the job.To help you best “read between the lines”, I can’t be candid enough in saying that MOST ‘newbie’ Real Estate agents simply either DON’T APPLY OR DON’T KNOW HOW TO APPLY many of the “little things” that Top Producing Real Estate agents do when working for their clients.

In closing, if you (or somebody you care about) is considering listing their home/wants to learn more about working with somebody that can help them get the best results for their money and time, I HIGHLY recommend reaching out to me.

Let me know if I can help your improve your situation in any way,
