Why a Realtor?
With the experience of a Fawnridge licensed Realtor Agent, selling your property is easier, faster and a lot more fun! Whether you’re thinking about selling your first, second or seventh property, a trained professional can help you make more money in less time on the sale. Our Realtors work hard to understand the unique selling points of your property and neighborhood, and will provide you with the expertise required to put a SOLD sign on your property.

Setting The Right Price:
 A key part of our marketing strategy is setting the list price. If priced too low, you won’t benefit from the best profit. If your property is priced too high, you may scare buyers away. To help you determine the best asking price, we will review the cost of recently sold homes, evaluate the competition and keep tabs on the current market trends.
 Our Agents are trained to help you reach the right asking price. We’ll help you with other questions as well, such as timing of the listing or items that can be included with the sale of your property. Both of these can make your home more attractive to potential buyers. Remember:

• Location: You can’t get away from this one. If your home is in a desirable location that is in demand, you will get a higher price than for the same house in a less desirable area.
• Condition: A home that is well maintained and shows well, will always sell for more than one which has been neglected or needs work.
• Desirable Amenities: If your home has currently desired amenities, it will bring a higher price.
• Calculate the Price per Square Foot: this shouldn’t be the sold determinant of the asking price, but is a helpful starting point. Remember, there are various methods used to calculate square footage. Use this calcualtor to get started.
