"I had a really great experience with Christine & Company, Aaron Hendon was my Realtor. You know, one thing that had happened that was sort of unique is; our house was sold and almost to closing. Literally two days from closing A very sad occurrence happened and one of the buyers actually passed away That deal fell through. What was amazing, it was such a sad occurrence, I really felt for that family. Aaron, my realtor, and Christine & Company they were simultaneously so compassionate to what this family going through and they were like: " we are going to take care of you " to us whose deal had just kind of fallen through They were just very committed to making sure that we were taken care of Within a couple of days, they had re-staged the house and put it back on the market and they literally had an offer within 3 or 4 days It was just really such a sad occurrence and they just really did their best to take care of us " - Erin J "The experience I had with Christine & Company was a great experience. We had a home that we put on the market and it was on the market for a few months, didn't sell We decided to contact Christine and Company and they promised that they would advertise it and market it aggressively; and they did. We sold the house shortly after. It didn't sell with the other seller for a long time that it was on the market because they were not advertising it correctly So we are extremely happy with them Not only that, to mention, we marketed it about $50,000 higher than we were asking before and that's what we got for it."
Are there things we should do to our home to help ensure the maximum price?
Yes. There is a benefit to making sure your home looks its best prior to offering it for sale. There are also small remodeling jobs that will pay off at resale. We can advise you about specific improvements that will increase your home's marketability and value. We also can provide a prelisting consultation with our interior designer.
How often will you advertise our property? We don't just list homes; we market them. We will make sure your home is marketed to potential buyers and agents around the clock, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We will customize a marketing plan to reach the types of buyers most likely to purchase your home. We know how to maximize the power of the internet for our clients while also using traditional methods including, brochures, yard signs and direct mail. More importantly, odds are good we will sell it in 12 days for over value with our 12 Day Blitz marketing plan.

Will you be present at all showings?
At open houses our team will be there. For showings, potential buyers will bring their own agents to see your home. Most buyers prefer only their own agents be present when evaluating a prospective new home.
What if another agent tells us they can get us more for the house?
Some agents will quote a higher listing price just to get your business, but an overpriced house will not sell.
Do we have any responsibilities during the marketing of our home?
Your primary job during the marketing of your home is to keep it neat and clean for showings and open houses. A large part of a home's appeal involves staging, which is everything from furniture placement to home fragrance. We will advise you on how to stage your home well, giving you some easy tips and quick fixes to maximize your home's appeal.
