5 QUESTIONS to Ask Every Agent Before Listing Your Home

As encouraging news of the reviving housing market gains momentum, many homeowners will again consider selling their home. If you’re like most sellers, a home is your single largest financial asset, and the commission paid to a real estate professional is substantial. Therefore, you should have high expectations of an agent, and fully understand the strategies and tools they use to market your home. To be sure your home is sold quickly and for the best price, ask an agent these questions before listing your home with them: How will you market my home to local buyers?

Real estate remains hyper local. In 2016, the National Association of REALTORS® reported that home buyers only moved about 14 miles from their previous residence.

What types of media will you use to advertise my home?

Buying a home typically takes about three months from the time a buyer starts their search to signing a contract. During that time, buyers continue to work, shop, eat, and play in areas adjacent to their current home and community. Ask your agent how they plan to reach local buyers.

In today’s multi-media world advertising is everywhere, and the way consumers find information is constantly changing. Be cautious of agents who use only the web to market your home. Your agent must understand the importance of multiple media, like social media, mobile apps, text codes, local real estate magazines, direct mail and other printed materials to actively reach out to buyers everywhere—not just passively hoping for buyers to find your listing online.

How will you market my home to out of market buyers?

How are you going to realistically price my home?

While many potential buyers will be local, depending on your home and surrounding area, out-of-market buyers could also prove to be a valuable audience. While ensuring that your home is listed on one of the many MLS services online is a great start, it doesn’t constitute an aggressive marketing program for your home.

Pricing a home requires an intimate knowledge of the market to get it right. You want to get the best price, but there can be a disconnect between your expectations as a seller and the price for which your home will realistically sell.

To get the best results, successful agents must use outbound, direct marketing and other avenues to reach buyers in other areas.

How will you market my home to other local top agents?

Holding open houses is always a good investment.

Both agents and local home shoppers can actually see the unique character of your home versus just looking at online photos. It engages other local agents, which can also bring you a buyer more quickly. Additionally, professional quality printed materials like flyers and postcards keep your home in front of them long after they walk out the door.

17M026B-032817

If an agent overprices your home, it may ultimately sell for less than it would have if priced correctly from the beginning. It could also create conflict with the bank’s appraisal when the buyer tries to secure a mortgage.

Ask to see a comparison of list price, sold price, and number of days on market for your agent’s ten most recent transactions. Homes that sit on the market too long and go through multiple price reductions are typically overpriced.

Calculate the commission you pay to get your home sold and we think you will agree that you have the right to expect a very aggressive campaign. The best agents in your town will meet or exceed the expectations that we’ve laid out here and you deserve to work with only the best.

6 TRENDY BATHROOM UPGRADES We use our bathrooms every day, so their importance in your home is far greater than you might think.

Modern bathrooms should be simple, clean, and comfortable. When designing your bathroom, utilize clean lines, minimal colors, and geometric shapes and patterns. Fixtures and amenities are also a great way to transfer your dull bathroom into a relaxing and refreshing space.

Jumpstart your bathroom upgrade today with these five additions.

Freestanding Bathtubs Tubs shouldn’t always be the same old oval, white, fiberglass tub attached to the wall. Freestanding tubs are a staple for modern bathroom designs. Keep things symmetrical and sharp and create balance by strategically placing your tub in a spot that enhances the flow of your bathroom. Try a retro clawfoot tub or pedestal tub.

Skylights In rooms where privacy is a concern, skylights can provide both

natural light and ventilation. They're beautiful and give your bathroom a major “wow” factor. Skylights are also practical and save you money; Energy Star-qualified no-leak, solar-powered fresh-air skylights can help trim electricity costs by providing natural light and passively venting moist, warm air from the room.

Lighted vanity mirror Home improvement stores, design studios, and online retailers carry a variety of lighted vanities in shapes, sizes, styles, and light sources (LED, CFL or incandescent) to suit virtually every taste. Installing one is a simple do-it-yourself job that has a big impact on a bathroom's appearance and usability.

Dual-flush toilet Dual-flush toilets are a great way to save water and money. Because they use only the water you need to get the job done, they contribute positively to a home's overall footprint and can help save on water bills.

They’re a lower-cost upgrade, and

even more cost-effective when installed by a savvy do-it-yourselfer.

Towel warmers Wall-mounted or free-standing, plug-in or hard-wired, all towel warmers work the same way; heated bars warm towels hung on the rack, providing a cozy, warm towel every time you bathe. Plug-in versions install easily, while hardwired ones may require professional installation.

Shower foot rest Designed to make shaving easier, foot rests are an economical improvement – some suction-cup styles cost under $20. For a more refined look or enhanced sturdiness, it's possible to find one that anchors into the wall through screws, or a style built into the shower. If you're redoing your shower stall, it's the perfect time to add a stylish, sturdy foot rest.

QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD ASK MORTGAGE LENDERS

By Talaia Whisenant

Buying your first home may seem like a scary process, but it’s also a fulfilling learning experience and a big step towards financial security. There’s no right way to begin the home buying process, but the lending process is a good start. Consulting with lenders first will help you narrow down your budget, understand your credit, purchasing power, and specify what homes you can afford before getting in over your head.

A good lender will not only answer client questions, but will do so promptly and with clarity. Here are some key questions to ask:

WHAT IS THE INTEREST RATE? You should ask your mortgage lender for a quote on the interest rate. Compare interest rates among lenders and settle for the lowest rate that you qualify for. Keep in mind that the interest rate, the mortgage balance and the loan term determines your monthly payment. The lower your interest rate, the smaller your monthly payment.

HOW MANY ORIGINATION OR DISCOUNT POINTS CAN I PAY? A point is a fee paid to the lender at the closing in exchange for a reduced interest rate. For instance, one point is equal to 1% of the loan amount. Your lender may charge discount points, origination points, or both. How many points are included in the interest rate, and what are the benefits of buying more?

Discount points are prepaid interest and are taxdeductible, while origination points are fees charged by the lender to cover the cost of originating the loan.

IS THERE A PREPAYMENT PENALTY ON THE LOAN? Planning to pay your house off sooner than your loan term? Some lenders charge for that. Once contracts are signed, lenders regulate the payoff terms of your loan. Paying a mortgage off early can unfortunately result in an expensive penalty. Prepayment penalties are often 80% of six months interest. Ask your lender if they have one, and plan in advance.

HOW CAN I LOCK IN THE INTEREST RATE? Scoring a great interest rate is half the battle; you’ll want to lock in the interest rate because rates fluctuate. If the rate rises, the homebuyer will not be impacted, but if the rate falls, you may not be able to take advantage of the new low rate. Ask for your lender’s loan processing time to ensure your rate is secure during a rate lock.

WHAT ARE THE CLOSING COSTS AND DOWN PAYMENT? Months or even years before a home purchase, prepare your finances for the down payment. This is important because the average down payment on a home can run you 20% of the value of the home.

Closing costs are less expensive (but still pricey), and may include loan-origination fees, appraisal fees, attorney fees, and other additional fees. Get a written estimate from your lender within three days of applying for the loan.

WHAT MIGHT DELAY MY APPROVAL ON THE LOAN? Delays are often times unavoidable. Unsent papers, missing signatures, and any change in employment status, an increase or decrease in salary, or even change in marital status can cause delays. Regularly following up with your lender can help speed things up, and you’ll soon be on your way to homeownership!

How to Decorate Your Home for Fall Fall is one of the best seasons for decorating your home in a tasteful way that’s both festive and functional. Some of the most popular fall decorating themes include pumpkins, gourds, fall foliage, and pinecones to name a few. It’s time to say goodbye to summer and welcome the changing of seasons by adding a few cozy touches around your house with these tips.

1

Refresh Your Front Door: Maximize your curb appeal by adding piles of pumpkins and gourds to create a cheery look. Get creative by painting your house numbers onto one of the larger pumpkins, or throw in some potted croton and mums to your décor to complete the look. For a finishing touch, place a fall-themed wreath on the door.

2

Warm Things Up: With cooler temperatures creeping in, give your open spaces a snug feel by swapping out your lightweight pillows and linens. Instead of cotton and linen, opt for velvet or burlap materials in darker colors. Add a few throw blankets into the mix, and you’ll be ready to welcome guests for nights spent by the fire.

3

Add Fall Flowers: Just because summer is over doesn’t mean that flowers have to go along with it. If you’re looking to brighten up your home, there’s no easier way than to do so with flowers. Sunflowers and alstromeria are both great choices because they both last for about a week. Remove all leaves below the water line and change your water every few days in order to keep your blooms fresh.

4

Add a Rocking Chair: Pair a rocking chair with a plaid blanket outside on the porch for the ultimate fall look.

All that you’ll be missing after that is a cup of pumpkin flavored coffee.

5

Bring Outside In: Fall leaves are ideal for sprinkling on the mantle or for pressing onto wax paper during an afternoon of crafts. Use backyard leaves to create streamers for fall-themed parties, or frame them for artwork around the house. The options are endless!

6

Turn on the Fire: Fireplaces take the center stage when it comes to the fall season. If you have a wood fireplace, now is the time to make sure that you have enough firewood for the rest of the season.

If you’re using gas, don’t forget to turn it off when you leave to go somewhere. Nonetheless, a roaring fire paired with a comfy sofa and views of the changing leaves creates the perfect fall setup.
