Five

Tips for Selecting the

V

By Laurie Moore-Moore Founder, The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing

Y

ou’ve made the decision to buy or sell a luxury home, now it’s time to select the real estate professional who can best assist you.

Not all good agents operate effectively in the upper-tier market. It is a market segment that requires special competencies. Here are some general guidelines for choosing an agent to help you in the upper-tier residential marketplace:

1

Look for market knowledge and real estate skills. Not only should your agent know the city or area you are interested in, he or she should be knowledgeable about the price range you’ve targeted. A luxury home expert should be able to discuss the amount of inventory available, the average number of days a property is on the market before going under contract, the number of sales in the last 90 days, and the list to sales price ratio—all by price range.

We believe price band analysis is so important, we’ve developed a proprietary software tool called My Market Graphs, exclusively for members of The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing.

2

The more knowledgeable the agent is about the upper-tier market, the more valuable he or she can be as a resource for you. When you schedule your first meeting with a prospective agent, let the agent know you want an overview of the current market conditions based on price range. A solid track record of success is also a clear indicator of market savvy. Don’t choose an agent based on country club membership, the kind of car he or she drives, or similar criteria. Do choose your agent based on the answer to the question, “Does this agent have the skills and resources necessary to help me accomplish my real estate goals?”

2

Notice special luxury affiliations and designations and ask what they mean. To zero in on professionals who specialize in the fine homes and estates market, look at an agent’s memberships and designations. Some agents are members of organizations specific to the luxury market such as The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing, which awards an international designation (Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist) to agents who meet education requirements and have a track

Right

S Luxury Real Estate Agent record of success. A few real estate companies offer special recognition to their associates who work successfully in the luxury market. Some firms have special luxury marketing programs available to their agents.

All these memberships, affiliations and credentials add credibility.

3

If you are selling, ask that the listing presentation include a specific marketing plan for your property. Don’t assume that the best marketing plan is always the most expensive. Listen to why the agent has included each element of the plan. Be sure that your home will be promoted online as well as in more traditional ways. If the home is very expensive or the buyer is likely to come from outside the area, a luxury home magazine may be an important part of the plan.

Recognize that the marketing plan in a fast-moving sellers’ market will differ from the plan to be implemented in a slower buyers’ market.

This is where analyzing the market by price bands can be advantageous, providing realistic expectations based on current market conditions.

Your agent should outline his or

her proposed plan and explain it.

Look at the quality of the marketing pieces the agent has used in the past as part of your evaluation process.

Agents with some firms have access to special luxury home marketing systems with special marketing pieces that add value to their toolkit.

4

If you are selling, don’t let an agent “buy” your business.

Choosing an agent based on the highest suggested list price is counterproductive if the house is overpriced. The agent doesn’t set the price—the marketplace does. If your home goes on the market as an overpriced listing, agents and their prospects will quickly move on to other properties that offer more value relative to cost. Will they come back if the price goes down? In many cases, no. Instead, select your real estate professional based on his or her market knowledge, the proposed marketing plan for your home, and your assessment of the agent’s ability to help you accomplish your goals.

5

Rapport and clear communication are important. Buying and selling can be stressful.

Choosing an agent with whom you communicate clearly will help simplify the process. Be sure he or she understands your needs and expectations and that you understand the process and the agent’s expectations of you. In short, specialized knowledge + quality tools + clear communication = an agent who can deliver the results you want in the luxury home arena.

Editor’s Note: Agents who are members of The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing and those who have earned The Institute’s special designations in the luxury home market can be found at www.CLHMS.org.

Manasota Key Celebrate life’s simple pleasures.

Welcome to Manasota Key.

The charm and warmth of Old Florida come to life on Manasota Key. Just south of Sarasota, off the coast of Englewood, this beguiling barrier island is in perfect harmony with its surroundings. No traffic lights, no high rises, no deed restrictions, just a two lane protected canopy road leading you to swaying palms, an endless white sand beach, and the warm, turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Century’s old Banyan trees alive with tropical birds, frolicking dolphin, loggerhead turtles, balmy sea breezes, the kiss of the sun, and the magic of the sunsets endow Manasota Key with a dramatic, sensual, and serene ambiance.
