                          Leveraging Special Features

Your real estate agent Louis Kutzke likes to employ special features to use with positioning to create a marketing advantage for sellers who contract with him to sell their house. This approach is designed to:
-Spread the availability of your property throughout the community.
-Keep your listing relevant in the minds of community members over time.
-Differentiate your listed house from similar, nearby, competing properties for sale.
The agent begins by developing a list of special features for the house and property. A description and image of each individual identified special feature will be used to assemble one social media post. The agent wants several individual special feature posts to distribute on a scheduled timeline across the various social media channels. The seller can view this as a series of posts organized so that one new special feature of their property is being distributed each week. This unique process of positioning to create a marketing advantage expresses with certainty the special features of your house while differentiating your listing from similar, nearby properties for sale. With a series of posts going out on a schedule as days on market get longer the volume of marketing becomes stronger which will increase the listings online presence exposing the availability of your house to more potential buyers.

PRICING YOUR PROPERTY LISTING Early in the listing process we will discuss strategies involved with determining a timely and objective price range based on market realities. The Realtors Property Resource (RPR) provides a good place to start. Here we can look for the Automated Valuation Modal (AVM) where the properties estimate will be based solely upon publicly recorded sold data. Next, we can look for the Realtors Valuation Modal (RVM) where the properties estimate will include on-market and off-market Multiple Listing Service data, plus publicly recorded sold data. Now we can discuss local market conditions- is the area experiencing a buyer's market or a seller's market? Objectively consider the property condition- how does this property compare to others in the nearby area? Identify the properties unique features- define the standout characteristics that can add value. Discuss the owner's timeline for a sale- are you looking for a quick sale or willing to wait for the right offer? Review recent comparable sales- what have similar properties in your area sold for recently? Now we can utilize Paragon's Price Analysis feature that can deliver an estimate of the number of potential buyers per the chosen price point. From the price range we can choose an initial listing price. Here it is important to acknowledge that real estate markets shift and change. Acknowledging real estate markets shift means considering local market cycles that will relate to seasonal trends. The agent and the sellers will plan to monitor new listings and sales in the nearby area. This translates to staying adaptable while being prepared to adjust the price of the listed property when local market feedback is presenting data indicators that would support a price change.

PRICING THEORY TIME IT TAKES TO FIND BUYER Coming up with a listing price is a collaboration between the seller and the agent. As an agent I want the seller to understand how the current market conditions, the estimated price range for the property, and the expected time involved to complete a closed sale all fit together. An estimate of the price range will be dependent upon the date the analysis was performed because market conditions used to calculate the price range estimate are constantly changing. Fannie Mae defines market value as the most probable price that a property should bring in a competitive and open market under conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently, knowledgably, and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. The agent's timely analysis of the market conditions to determine an estimated price range is to assist the seller with choosing a listing price that a buyer would pay a seller in an open market. The price the seller chooses to list their house for will have an influence on the time it will take to sell the property. I like to use the diagram of the pricing pyramid to demonstrate how where the chosen price resides in relation to the estimated price range is expected to affect buyer behavior. The pricing pyramid projects that a chosen price 15 percent above the estimated price range will attract about 10 percent of the potential buyers to look at the property. A chosen price 10 percent above the estimated price range will attract about 30 percent of the potential buyers to look at the property. A chosen price within the estimated price range will attract about 60 percent of the potential buyers to look at the property. A chosen price 10 percent below the estimated price range will attract about 75 percent of the potential buyers to look at the property. A chosen price 15 percent below the estimated price range will attract about 90 percent of the potential buyers to look at the property. More potential buyers can mean a shorter length of time to sell- where fewer potential buyers can mean a longer length of time to sell. It will be beneficial for a seller who chooses a listing price above the estimated price range to understand their property can be expected to have fewer viewers online, fewer calls asking about the property, fewer in-person showings, and take a longer period of time to find the right buyer. A seller who chooses a listing price within or below the estimated price range can be expected to have more viewers online, more calls asking about the property, more in-person showings, and take a shorter period of time with finding a buyer. The seller is in the driver's seat when choosing a listing price. The agent's role is to deliver the information and guidance that will enable the seller to understand how the chosen price relates to current market conditions, the estimated price range, and the expected amount of time that will be involved to complete a closed sale for their property.

STAGING TO PREPARE FOR PHOTOGRAPHING Staging will involve giving the seller time to prepare the house for photographing. Prior to the pictures being taken alert your neighbors of when the photographer is scheduled to visit. Make a plan for any pets to have a comfortable place while the photographer is taking pictures. Refresh the outdoor landscape by raking leaves and removing branches in the Fall season. If a garage is available place outdoor tools, and any garbage-recycling containers inside for storage. Inside remove all personal items from counter surfaces. Tidy the bathroom, clean the windows, make the beds, vacuum the floors where touch up seems needed. When the photographer arrives consider clearing the driveway of vehicles. Some home sellers will take a picture of their room with a phone camera to review the picture ahead of the photographer's visit and rearrange the space to suit how they would like to have the room appear. SELLING TAKES TIME EVEN AFTER ACCEPTING AN OFFER The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) estimates the mortgage journey from final offer to closing day, to take from about 30 to 45 days. The steps can be described as: Final offer and acceptance, Earnest money deposit, Property appraisal, FHA loan application and processing, Underwriting, Loan approval and commitment, Title search and insurance, Home inspection, Final walk through, and Closing. An FHA loan is a home mortgage that is insured by the government and issued by a bank or other lender approved by the agency.
