Choosing Your Listing Agent

A house will be the most expensive thing you ever sell, which is why the agent you choose to help guide you through and manage the process for you is so important. It’s no secret that Denver is a seller’s market, but that definitely doesn’t mean that that corners should be cut when prepping a house for sale, maximizing marketing + listing a home!

It makes me cringe 𝗦𝗢 𝗕𝗔𝗗 when I see a house listed for half a million dollars plus with crappy iPhone photos that an agent took themselves…
or show a house that has had zero prep work done and it’s dirty or full of clutter…
or try to get in touch with an agent because my buyer wants to give their sellers an amazing offer and get no answer.

𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲. Did you know that individual agents can pick and choose which investments they make to market your home + have a different approach with how they manage inquiries and offers once your house is listed?

I’ve thought a lot about how I can provide the most value to the sellers I work with. Here are a few things I do for all of my listings to help ensure my seller’s homes reach the most buyers, are presented at their best + sell for the highest price:

+ 𝗣𝗿𝗲-𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁 to discuss recommended updates, repairs, or to-dos
+ 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴. Worthy of it’s own post, but we don’t live in our homes the same way as we should show them
+ 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗻. Moving is stressful enough without devoting hours to cleaning
+ 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗼𝘀 to make a home stand out and show it in it’s best light
+ 𝗘𝘅𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘀 to cater to the digital world we live in like a 3D walk-through, floorplans + neighborhood photos
+ 𝗧𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮 𝗮𝗱𝘀. I have a great proven strategy to reach buyers and generate interest outside of the MLS and housing websites
+ 𝗔𝘃𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 to both agents and prospective buyers to convey the seller’s needs/wants and negotiate to get them an offer they love
