The Journey Begins
PARTNERING FOR SUCCESS
We begin by matching your objectives and priorities with the process of marketing and selling your house.
The first three steps towards selling your house are:
Clarifying and prioritizing your expectations
Defining the story of your house and neighborhood
Agreeing on a process – how we’ll work together
UNDERSTANDING EXPECTATIONS
The Home Selling process can be unsettling. Let’s review and prioritize the following topics to help us understand what’s most important to you in the sale of your property.
Please look over these questions and think about how you would like this process to go. No need to write in your answers, we will discuss them.
1. How many properties have you sold?
a. When did you sell your last one?
b. What were your experiences with that sale? How did it go?
c. What did you like the best? What did you like the least?
2. Why are you selling your home?
3. Where are you going?
4. How soon do you need to be there?
5. Do you have any other properties that you need to sell?
a. Would you like us to help you with those properties?
6. Do you plan on doing any remodeling, painting, flooring prior to selling?
7. Did you have any questions about the market or home selling process?
8. Are you willing to list your home at fair market value?
a. We find that most buyers select homes to look at based on three criteria: Style, Location, Price Range
9. Where do you feel we should price your house to get you where you want to go on time?
10. Do you think it will get you there on time? If not, what’s your Plan B?
11. If we got a contract on your house today, what would you do?
12. If we find a buyer for your house in the next 72 hours, are you going to be OK with that? What if it’s the first person who looks at your house?
ADOPTING THE RIGHT MINDSET
See your property through the buyer’s eyes.
When you put your home on the market you are no longer the home owner, you are the home seller. Sellers must adopt the mindset of the buyer and see the home through a buyer’s eyes. By making your home appealing to buyers you are more likely to sell your home quickly and at a good price.
Here are some relevant questions to consider:
• Does your property have curb appeal?
• What will buyers experience when they walk through your home?
• Is the home in need of repairs or upgrades?
• Does your home need to be painted?
• Should the home be professionally staged?
• How does the home compare to other properties in the area?
• What is the age and condition of important mechanicals such as the furnace, air conditioner, hot water heater, and appliances?
• What is the age and condition of important structural features such as the roof or exterior deck?
• Do all improvements have certificates of compliance (permits) from your local governing body?
• Is your property on a well and septic system?
TELLING THE STORY OF YOUR HOME
Every home is unique. Discovering the unique features of your home and creating a story that captures this uniqueness is important. We use the story of your home to create an emotional bond with potential buyers because homes are an emotional purchase. Your home is more than shelter or an investment. It’s the place where your personal story unfolds. Capturing that story and then telling it on the most appropriate marketing channels is the essence of real estate marketing.
To tell the story of your home, we need to ask a few questions:
• Does your property have a unique style?
• Describe the design and construction?
• How would the builder or architect describe the attributes of your property?
• Is it in a popular location?
• Does the area have highly-rated schools?
• Are there great neighborhood amenities?
• Is your home LEED certified or have other eco-friendly features?
• Has your home been recently remodeled?
• Is it in a historic area?
• What is the lifestyle story that would attract buyers?
• Are there any special terms or conditions of the sale you would like to discuss?
• What enhancements might make your home more attractive to a buyer?
HOME SELLING PROCESS
Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Starck Real Estate strives to make the home selling process seamless. Expert guidance from launch to close allows you to get where you want to go, on time.
BUYER
Buyer’s Broker
Seller’s Broker
LOAN EVALUATION
Before making an offer, smart buyers apply to at least three lending sources to determine how much they can afford to spend and the best interest rate.
SALES AGREEMENT EXECUTED
SELLER
OFFER PRESENTED
Buyer’s Broker presents buyer’s offer to seller’s Broker, who conveys it to the seller.
GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT
Once buyer and seller agree on terms, buyer submits a good faith deposit to cement the deal. Deposit is held in escrow to be applied toward the down payment.
LOAN APPLICATION PROCESSED
Lender conducts an extensive review of buyer’s credit report, employment, source of down payment, property appraisal, etc.
CLOSING DOCUMENTS ISSUED
Lender provides loan estimate and closing disclosure detailing all terms and costs.
SELLER’S DISCLOSURE
Seller discloses issues that may materially affect the value of the property and which are not readily evident.
PURCHASE NEGOTIATION
Working through their Brokers, seller and buyer negotiate the sales price, sales terms and any contingencies buyer may request.
TITLE SEARCH
Concurrent with the loan process, closing agent confirms seller has a clear right to sell the property and establishes facts, such as whether there are restrictive covenants on the use of the property.
CONTINGENCIES SATISFIED
Once financing is complete and other hurdles are removed, contingencies may drop off.
FINAL WALK-THROUGH
1-2 days before closing, buyer confirms that the home is in the same condition as when purchase offer was signed and all elements that are to be conveyed are still in place.
CLOSING
Buyer and seller sign documents and complete sale.

The Starck Advantage Marketing System
Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Starck Real Estate is committed to selling our clients homes as fast as possible and at the highest price. We have developed an advanced marketing system to do just that. Every home requires a unique approach. We develop a personalized strategy, prioritizing your goals, into an actionable plan for selling your home.
Starck Advantage blends digital advertising, search engine marketing, social media marketing, retargeting advertising, professional photography, mailbox marketing, email marketing, database marketing, video production, and public relations. Our in-house Creative Studio is a team of marketing experts that use these tools to market your home to the right buyers across multiple channels.
SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING
Social media is about telling engaging stories that trigger engagement.
Social media is where the majority of home buyers spend their time. To market your home, we have to place it where the buyers are spending their screen time. Facebook is the most influential network with over 2.1 billion active users daily. Similarly, with 122 million users daily YouTube has become an important marketing channel because property videos are now one of the fastest growing search categories. Instagram is the fastest growing social network with 500 million daily active users.*
Our Creative Studio has a dedicated Social Media Manager who creates these stories and posts them on all of our social media networks. Every property has a video that is posted on our YouTube channel.
VISUAL MARKETING
A picture is worth a thousand words.
Today’s sophisticated digital marketing platforms require great photographs. That is why every Starck listing is professionally photographed. Our photography partners understand just how to bring out the best in your home and make it look stunning.
*Social
ONLINE MARKETING
When it comes to selling your home, the importance of the Internet has never been greater. 91% of all home buyers used the internet at some point in their search for a home and 51% of buyers ultimately found the home they purchased on the internet. Only 6% of buyers looked in a newspaper or home buying guide to search for a home.*
Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Starck Real Estate syndicates our listings to all of the top real estate search engines nationally and internationally. The BHHS.com website attracts over 16 million unique visitors** each year. We offer the most extensive internet exposure possible.

Pricing Strategy
UNDERSTANDING MARKET VALUE
Pricing your home for the current market is important for maximum exposure and, ultimately, a satisfactory sale.
The existing pool of prospective buyers determines a property’s value, based on:
• Location, design, amenities, and condition
• Availability of comparable (competing) properties
• Economic conditions that affect real property transactions
Factors that have little or no influence on the market value of a house include:
• The price the seller originally paid for the property
• The seller’s expected net proceeds
• The amount spent on improvements
The impact of accurate pricing:
• Properties priced within market range generate more showings and offers, and sell in a shorter period of time
• Properties priced too high have a difficult time selling
Attractive Pricing
A home listed below market value attracts a lot of attention. A home listed above market value attracts very few buyers. Our goal is to price your home as close to fair market value as possible. Fair market value is the ideal price where we can expect the largest share of buyers for the maximum available price.
DETERMINE YOUR HOME’S MARKET VALUE
An impartial evaluation of market activity is the most effective way to estimate a property’s potential selling price.
I can provide a Comparative Market Analysis, which considers similar properties that:
We can provide a Comparative Market Analysis, which considers similar properties that:
• Have recently sold. This shows us what buyers in this market have paid for properties similar to yours
• Are currently on the market. This shows us what kind of properties will be competing with yours for the attention of available buyers
• Failed to sell. Understanding why these properties did not sell can help us avoid disappointment in the marketing of your property
KNOW THE DANGERS OF OVERPRICING
An asking price that is beyond the market range can adversely affect the marketing of a property.
• Marketing time is prolonged and initial marketing momentum is lost
• Fewer buyers will be attracted and fewer offers received
• The property attracts “lookers” and helps competing houses look better by comparison
• If a property does sell above true market value, it may not appraise and the buyers may not be able to secure a loan
• The property may eventually sell below market value
Buyer Activity
Buyers are most active in the 2nd week after your home is listed. This chart illustrates how activity reduces the longer your home is on the market. While interest in your home fades, so do your chances of a sale.
Preparing For Sale
KNOW HOW BUYERS VIEW YOUR HOME
It is important for a property to make the best impression on prospective buyers.
The following can interfere with a buyer’s appreciation of a property:
Exterior
• Clutter
• A lawn in need of mowing
• Untrimmed hedges and shrubs
• Dead and dying plants
• Grease or oil spots on the driveway
• Peeling paint
• Anything that looks old or worn
Interior
• Worn carpets and drapes
• Dirty windows, kitchen, baths
• Clutter
• Pet and smoking odors
• Peeling paint, smudges or marks on walls
YOU ARE KEY TO A SUCCESSFUL SALE
Here are some ways your participation can contribute to a successful sale:
• Maintain the property in ready-to-show condition
• Ensure that the house is easily accessible to real estate professionals (lock box and key)
• Try to be flexible in the scheduling of showings
• When you are not at home, let us know how you can be reached in case an offer is received
• If approached directly by a buyer who is not represented by a real estate professional, please contact us. Do not allow them into the property unescorted
• In case of last-minute showings, always remove or lock up valuables, jewelry, cash, and prescription medications
REASONS WHY SELLERS SHOULD CONSIDER HAVING THEIR HOME INSPECTED
Pre-listing home inspections offer numerous benefits for sellers, helping them avoid unwelcome surprises and presenting their property in the best possible light. Here’s why it’s important for home sellers to consider the advantages of a pre-listing inspection:
• Identify Issues Early: A pre-listing inspection allows you to uncover any hidden issues or necessary repairs before listing your home. Identifying and addressing these issues upfront can prevent delays and surprises during the selling process, leading to a more seamless transaction.
• Accurate Pricing: Knowing the true condition of your home enables you to price it accurately. You can price your home competitively based on its actual condition, potentially attracting more buyers and offers.
• Build Buyer Confidence: Providing a pre-listing inspection report to potential buyers demonstrates transparency and builds confidence. Buyers appreciate knowing the condition of the property upfront, reducing the likelihood of negotiations falling through due to unexpected issues discovered later.
• Negotiate from a Position of Strength: Addressing issues found in the inspection report before listing your home allows you to negotiate from a position of strength. You can either make necessary repairs or adjust the listing price accordingly, giving you more control over the selling process.
• Streamline the Sale: By resolving issues early on, you can streamline the sale process and minimize the risk of lastminute complications or deal breakers.
• Maximize Market Appeal: A pre-listing inspection enables you to showcase your home’s positive attributes and address any minor concerns that could deter potential buyers.
• Save Time and Money: Dealing with issues after receiving an offer can be costly and time-consuming. By conducting a pre-listing inspection, you can save both time and money by addressing issues proactively and avoiding negotiations or repairs during the closing process.

Awesome To Work With!
John & Pat are some of the best in the business! Their combination of knowledge, decades of experience and great personalities made them AWESOME to work with! They sold our home FAST and helped us make the right choice on our purchase. Love John & Pat LaDeur!
GREAT SERVICE STARTS HERE
The Client Comes First
“John and Pat LaDeur are the best. The client comes first. They are very knowledgeable about local real estate. Many times, throughout the buying process I asked them for their guidance. Their experience is impressive. They helped us sell my Mother’s house as well as my Mother-in-laws house. They told us how to stage the house to make it look best. When we got to the offer stage their input was invaluable. They guided us through the negotiation process on how much to counter offer. If we ever need to sell and buy again you can be sure they will be the first agents we will call.”
“Dead On” Advice
“Let’s just say that my perception of what a realtor will do for the client was thrown out on its ear. Pat did a wonderful job of listening to our needs and partnering with us throughout the renovation and Sale process. Cannot emphasize enough the combination of “dead on” advice about the marketplace and a dedication to do what was needed to get a quality offer on our home. Just a great partnering experience. Everything topic discussed was open and honest which produced the result we desired, a much-needed quick sale of our home.”
I Could Not Be Happier
“John and Pat are the best. I have worked with their team for the last 15 years and I could not be happier.”
They Go The Extra Mile
“Pat and John were a referral. Pat assisted us as we moved from Columbus, Ohio to Barrington. We were under an incredible time crunch. Pat stepped to the plate and helped us narrow our search to homes we spend all day Saturday touring, then went back to our favorites Sunday, and made an offer Sunday afternoon. This was on MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND. Now I don’t suggest you follow in our footsteps so these nice people can enjoy a holiday weekend, but I shared as an example of the lengths they’re willing to go to help out clients. They’re great & super nice people! Thanks!”
John & Pat Are The Best!
“John and Pat LaDeur are the best. They sold my home quickly and treated me like family throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend them if you are looking to sell or buy your home. John is amazing. Extremely flexible. Knows his market and treats you like family. You won’t find a more hard-working agent out there. Always sending information and new locations. Never any unwanted surprises with John and Pat. Treated us like family from the beginning to the end and continues to reach out. A+ 100% satisfied. Wouldn’t have done it with any other people!”
Highly Recommend
“The LaDeur team is unmatched for Professionalism. John and Pat have helped several members of the family: most recently with the death of our mother. In a time of grief, they provided concise direction to successfully expedite the sale of her residence. From listing to closing in only 4-weeks, at the targeted sale price. Prior experience with their team was with investment property. They assisted in navigating the obstacles of the purchase and then help locate a wonderful tenant. I highly recommend for their kindness & competence.”
Do Yourself A Favor, Call John & Pat
“Pat and John have been wonderful, attentive agents through 3 property sales. We love them both and would always recommend them to anyone in the area!! We are over the moon with the quick sale of our house due to our decluttering and staging, and the excellent photographs they provided us. Pat and John were amazing to work with! Their knowledge of the area and experience are what made us choose to work with them. They made the process so smooth and enjoyable. Do yourself a favor and call Pat and John for all your realtor needs!”
Always On Top Of The Ball
“John and Pat are a wonderful team, I highly recommend. They were very patient with my struggles in preparing to sell a home that had been wrecked by renters. They had helpful advice and went above and beyond other realtors, I’ve used in the area helping me sell the home while I lived out of town. They were always on top of the ball when we needed anything, especially frequent contractor access in the beginning. If I ever move back to the area Pat and John are going to be my first call!”
“Made The Total Process Easy.
“Since being in our house for over 30 years, the thought of selling was to say the least, overwhelming. The LaDeur Team made the total process easy. They gave us great advice on how to present our house in the best possible way. We were very pleased with the photos, both inside and exterior “bird view” shots using a 30 ft pole camera. We received many compliments from our friends and family when they saw our listing. Our open house weekend was a great success. We were especially pleased with the large number of pre-open house appointments that were made, in addition to day of walk ins. We felt very comfortable knowing that a team member was on every floor including basement to answer any questions and make sure everything remained safe.
John and Pat helped us navigate through the multiple offers we received with good advice. The closing process was made easier by their reminders for us to tie up loose ends like final meter readings etc. They made sure the little details did not present problems.
The knowledge and experience of John and Pat was the big differentiator over other realtors. We had a great experience and highly recommend the LaDeur Team.”
True Professional Who Delivers Results!
“A game-changer Working with Jennifer has been an absolute game-changer for us. She’s a ‘get it done’ type of worker who never shies away from a challenge. Her approachable nature makes communication easy and enjoyable. With her by our side, we felt empowered throughout our journey. A true professional who delivers results!”
Honest & Compassionate
John and Pat LaDeur we not only a wonderful honest realtor couple but they are also compassionate. They take the time to get to know what you like and don’t try to rush you into the first home you show interest in. I highly recommend this duo for all your buying and selling needs.
