The decision to sell your home is not only difficult but the process can be stressful, complicated, time-consuming and overwhelming at times. My job is to smooth out the bumps for you and guide you through this process - to make this experience fun and educational. In the end, you will get the maximum value for your home or investment property in the least amount of time with the least amount of effort from you. Here is what I will do for you:
Determine the right price
Buyers want a deal and we will be prepared! Through a series of detailed comparisons and market analysis, I will prepare a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) at no cost to you looking at current "like" properties for sale, expired listings that didn't sell and recent sales comparables. From this we can arrive together at a well thought out sales price in line with current buyers' expectations and market comparables. Competitive market pricing is essential in a buyer’s market.
Website exposure
Placement as a featured listing on my website (www.kauai-realestate.com) and on the Century 21 All Islands (14 offices) and national websites.
Listing on the Kauai Multiple Listing Service
This can be easily accessed from my website and is available to any licensed real estate agent through the MLS service.
Ensure maximum exposure to Century 21 Kauai agents
The 3 Century 21 Kauai offices combined have triple the sales of our next closest competitor and over 9 times more in the Princeville market alone for 2007! You are getting an island wide team and the maximum exposure to agents who are producers.
Advertising
Featured print advertising in select real estate print publications and a full color 1 page brochure on your property available to agents and potential buyers.
Contact potential buyers
I will personally contact buyers I am assisting and all the realtors in the area who will tell their homebuyers. This is an immediate and powerful means of initiating the marketing process.
Qualifying potential buyers
Your time won't be wasted considering offers from buyers who have not been qualified for the value of your home.
Open Houses
Get in front of interested buyers at their convenience. They wouldn’t be stopping at an open house if they didn’t have some interest in buying. This is a proven method for success and one that many agents don’t utilize enough!
Staging
This part is critical. I will consult with you on how to enhance the appearance of your home or investment property so that it shows at its best. Some repairs or slight improvements may be necessary but well worth it. Present your property in its most favorable light. You only get one chance to make a first impression.
Documentation and escrow
I will guide you through all the paperwork and necessary steps in advance that are required to complete the process from the initial offer(s) to the close of escrow. This will be an orderly and efficient process.
…AND MUCH MUCH MORE!
I have been a resident and business owner on Kauai for 13 years and have 7 years of real estate sales experience. In addition, I have bought and sold several of my own properties on the north shore of Kauai so I know what it's like being in your shoes. Relationships are the most meaningful part of my business and developing one with you will be my highest priority. I welcome the opportunity to make your home selling experience a rewarding one.
