Answers to some FAQ's by Sellers.



 

 

How many listings do your agents currently have?
A current number is available on request. During the busy season it varies.

What is the average time on the market?
Most homes sell in 2 to 3 months, but individual results can vary widely. Time on the market is within the control of the seller/agent team.

How many showings will we need to find our buyer?
This varies, between 30 to 50 showings on the average.

How many showings should we expect each week?
If our price is in tune with the market, we should have at least four showings to qualified buyers each week in order to sell in 8 to 12 weeks.

What is the industry's average selling price to asking price ratio?
About 96% locally. Call for the latest figure.

What is the selling price to asking price ratio for your listings?
In other words, when an offer arrives, how close to full price are you able to negotiate for your sellers? On the average, our sellers obtain nearly 98% of their asking price. Our record is consistent, and well above the industry average. Details are available. The most important thing that I do is to negotiate on our clients' behalf.

 

How will you determine the expected contract price for my home?
Just like professional appraisers, we customarily select three similar or comparable, nearby, recently sold properties and make dollar adjustments to the contract price of each one in order to estimate your property's market value.

How is a home's tax assessment related to that home's expected contract price?
There is no relationship. This question is addressed statistically as well as logically in our real estate books. If there were a reliable relationship, the entire professional appraisal industry would be out of business. Government tax assessments must not be confused with professional appraisals.

Where should the initial asking price be set for my home?
In the current market, a home should be priced 3% to 5% above the expected contract price. Call us for the latest local selling price to asking price ratio.

Will you market my home alone or with a team?
We work as a team to provide maximum support for you. We have excellent, professional associates who provide assistance in many facets of marketing.

Where is your office located?
Our office is located in West Ellicott, by Lakewood New York.
