Kelly Says....

You can't read a newspaper or listen to the news without hearing about the slumping housing market. The negative press can be overwhelming, and yet there are still houses selling throughout the area. The key to being one of them is getting your house in the very best shape possible. The new buzz word is "staging." This is what you see happening on the cable shows where the professionals come in and make the house more appealing with minor changes and touchups, not the big overhauls. (Those are different shows.) It requires some work, but it's critical in this competitive market.

There was a time when you could throw a sign in the yard or just whisper to a neighbor that you were thinking of selling and you had three people knocking on your door. Today, you may be lucky to have three buyers in three months. You have to make the most of each opportunity. The little things mean a lot. Not only must you make things neat and tidy, fix the drippy faucet and have the furnace serviced, but you may have to repaint, recarpet and update some fixtures. With all the media attention, buyers more than ever before are aware of the trends and don't want to have to do a lot of work to move in. They know that they can walk down the block to another house that has what they need and want if yours doesn't.

Let's work together to make your house stand out in a crowd. Contact me and we will discuss staging as it relates to your property and the success you have in getting your home sold.

Preparing your Property for Sale

One of the most difficult decisions is deciding which items should get your attention (and dollars) prior to letting buyers view your property. Each potential buyer will see your house and its flaws differently. As a buyer's agent, Kelly has years of experience dealing with buyers and how they react. Kelly will walk through your property with you and help you find the items that will make your house more appealing to buyers in your target market. She will call on a history of completed transactions to help place a value on each repair project so you can decide if the return is equal to your investment. Best of all, Kelly will be that set of eyes that can point out the 'quirks' of your house that, over the years, you have forgotten could be improved.

Setting the Price

In addition to direct exposure to banks of comparable properties, Kelly works directly with sellers on a daily basis. Her intimate exposure to the markets in south central Wisconsin will guide you through one of the most critical decisions toward a quick and profitable sale.

Smooth Closing

Once you have made your decisions and preparations, put Kelly to work. Kelly will create a listing and market your property using proven methods. As potential buyers appear, Kelly will answer questions, encourage interest, and arrange showings, coordinating around your needs and schedules. Kelly will work directly with you to analyze offers, contingencies, and conditions that sculpt the sale. Kelly will navigate the network of parties involved in your transaction to help find the best closing dates to best satisfy your needs and ease your transition. Her personal attention to YOUR needs will ensure that you get the most value for your effort with the least amount of aggravation.
