A Strategy For Success

An extraordinary listing requires an exclusive set of skills. At Premier Sotheby’s International Realty, the associates are experienced and innovative. Everyone deserves the extraordinary because luxury is not about price point—rather it’s about an experience. And when it comes to real estate, experience matters.

THE LISTING PROCESS: Efficient & Transparent

LEARNING YOUR STORY I want to hear your story—your motivation, your desires and your goals. I am results-driven, so knowing your wants is paramount to my success.

WE’LL WALK THROUGH YOUR HOME TOGETHER You can provide me with valuable insight about what drew you to the home, which can help me market it effectively. We’ll discuss recommended actions like property enhancement, staging or decluttering, and we’ll talk openly about your home’s features.

PRICING STRATEGIES Pricing your home properly from its first day on the market is critical to your success as a seller. I will provide a comprehensive market analysis comparing similar active and sold homes along with current market conditions; this will help you determine the home’s fair market value in relation to the condition, competition and economic state of the real estate market.

EXPECTATIONS I believe one of my core responsibilities as a REALTOR® is to prepare you for the selling process and help set reasonable, logical expectations. My job is to be the eyes and ears of the market—to educate and guide you in making great decisions. Once I know what form of communication works best for you, we’ll outline your expectations of me as your personal advisor. As the homeowner, you’ll have responsibilities too. Together we will figure out how we can work as a team to sell your home quickly and efficiently.

MY STANDARD SERVICES: From Listing Contract To Closing

INSPECTION Upon the execution of a listing agreement with Premier Sotheby’s International Realty, as one of my many services to you, I will employ a reputable company to inspect your home prior to the commencement of marketing and advertising. This way we can address any major issues upfront to ensure a smooth transaction from listing contract to closing.

INTERIOR DESIGN CONSULTATION Proper staging is more crucial than you may think. We can sell any home in any condition, but a home that has benefited from professional staging assistance will capture a higher return on investment. Let’s make your home extraordinary.

PHOTOGRAPHY & VIDEOGRAPHY I utilize one of the best professional photographers in the area. Your home gets one chance to make a great impression, and my photographer understands how to highlight all its wonders. The goal is to curate a carefully orchestrated series of images and film—the most interesting angles, the ideal time of day, the most compelling features—all designed to show your home at its very best. This portfolio enriches the viewers’ experience and will be the centerpiece of our marketing efforts both in print and online.

GRAPHIC DESIGN I employ one of the best graphic designers in the area to craft postcards and brochures that emphasize key aspects of your home in a beautiful way using clean luxurious layouts, rich colors, high-resolution photography and thoughtfully-written property and community descriptions that align your home with the level of sophistication sought by prospective buyers.

ADVERTISING & PLACEMENT Once your home is listed with Premier Sotheby’s International Realty, its details, specifications, and photography are disseminated to over 40,000 web, video, social media and mobile applications and sites across the world. Sotheby’s International Realty has exclusive relationships with highly-trafficked real estate sites including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg News where they are viewed an astounding 90 million times annually. Additionally, their listings are featured on revolutionary sothebysrealty.com which receives 60 million page views annually; 45% of which are from outside the United States. In addition to global placement, I have a concentrated advertising plan in our local markets with a presence in prominent newspapers, magazines and community press.

COMMUNICATION Communication is important, and I want you to know what is going on every step of the way; you’ll automatically receive online marketing summary reports from me. My online listing-distribution platform allows me to gauge the interest of potential buyers, so together we can track analytics on who’s looking at your home and from where they are previewing properties. You will also have access to activity reports showing what is going on with your listing on a daily basis. I want you to feel engaged in the selling process.
