How long will it take to sell my house?
The time it takes to sell a house can vary depending on several factors, including the current real estate market conditions, the location, the condition, and the asking price. Synergistic agents are experts in pricing houses competitively based on market data. Overpriced homes tend to sit on the market longer. Data suggests that homes in Florida typically stay on the market for about 60 to 90 days.
What are the costs of selling a home?
Most seller costs are around five to ten percent of the home’s sale price. Your Synergistic Real Estate Agent will be able to assist you with any questions or concerns that you may have regarding closing costs. They will lower your overall profit but are an important part of the sale process. Failure to pay these charges could result in fines, legal entanglements, or having the buyer walk away from the deal altogether.
What do Synergistic Real Estate agents include in their custom marketing plan to sell my home?
A comprehensive marketing plan to sell a house typically includes a variety of strategies and tactics designed to attract potential buyers and ultimately secure a sale. Here’s a breakdown of what’s usually included:
Defining the Target Audience and Pricing Strategy:
- Buyer Profile: Identifying the ideal buyer for the property (e.g., families, young professionals, retirees). This helps tailor marketing efforts.
- Motivations and Needs: Understanding what buyers are looking for in a home.
- Comparative Market Analysis (CMA): Research recent sales of comparable properties in the area to determine a competitive and attractive listing price.
- Pricing Strategy: Deciding on a pricing strategy (e.g., at market value, slightly above, or slightly below) based on market conditions and seller goals.
Property Preparation and Presentation:
- Staging involves preparing the home to showcase its best features. It often consists of decluttering, cleaning, and rearranging furniture. If necessary, we can recommend professional stagers.
- Professional Photography/Videography: We will contract with photographers to take images and videos that can be used online, as well as marketing materials such as e-mails, flyers, and social media.
- Repairs and Updates: We will recommend necessary repairs or cosmetic updates to make the home more appealing.
- Curb Appeal Enhancement: Improving the home’s exterior appearance through landscaping, painting, or other enhancements.
- Open Houses: Hosting open houses to allow potential buyers to view the property in person.
- Signage: Placing a “For Sale” sign on the property to attract drive-by interest.
Networking: Leveraging the agent’s network of contacts to spread the word about the listing.
