Home For Sale Listing Expired in Jacksonville – I want to be your 2nd REALTOR

I want to be your 2nd REALTOR – Not your 1st!

.

Over 5500 active real estate agents in Jacksonville and Ponte Vedra which means you probably know someone with a real estate license.  Actually, you may even be related to a real estate agent.  There are so many social obligations to use someone that you know to market and sell your home, and I fully understand that.

Actually, I would rather be your 2nd choice! Many of my customers come to me  as a 2nd choice after they have tried the agent they felt required to use.  The “required to use” agents usually fall into one of these categories:

  • Friend
  • Relative
  • Neighbor
  • Boss’s spouse
  • Work acquaintance

I would rather be your 2nd choice as now your social obligation is complete.  It was unsuccessful, and you realize just how tough of a real estate market this really is! Good news:  We sell homes! Now that you are ready to sell, we will work together to get your home sold.

Several Items we investigate when  RE-Listing your home for Sale:

  1. PRICE: Nothing says SOLD faster than a great price!  Forget about getting top dollar, this is one of the worst housing markets in history, and you have either chosen to or need to sell right in the middle of it.  We price aggressively.
  2. Traffic: If your home has not been shown to potential buyers, no one knows its for sale.  What is causing this? What can we do to fix?
  3. Home Staging: Home staging is cheap cheap cheap!  If you are serious about selling, Pay the money!  It’s less usually less than $300, and if you want someone to tell you what to do: $100 for a consultation with a list of what to do yourself.  We recommend you do this ASAP….before pictures are taken.
  4. Pictures: With over 90% of all home buyers shopping on line, The pictures should be the best they can be.  1 picture of the front of the house doesn’t cut it!  (Sad to see how many homes are marketed this way).

If you are ready to sell your house, Contact Brad!
