We have information for sellers in Maricopa real estate that can give you an edge.
There is a lot of talk about information for sellers and whether it's good or bad.

CMA: Comparable Market Analysis
No doubt, setting the price "right" is one of the most important first steps. Prior to our first meeting, we will spend a significant amount of time for sellers studying the market value of your home against other homes recently sold in your immediate area. We will also review those under contract and currently on the market as well. Depending on your home's location and activity in the area, we will span outside the immediate area to gather further statistics.
I will discuss and completely explain our listing agreement with you. You will be given estimated net sheets outlining all the costs involved with selling. I have extremely competitive real estate commissions that I will discuss with you.I understand that it is not easy for you to put your home on the market. There's a lot of work to do: cleaning, organizing, even staging. If you are not moving out of the home while it's on the market, it's harder still. Yet, it is so important to have your home look its best. There is just too much competition out there today to ignore this important step. I can help you with this. I do this every day; I know what buyers want and expect. Ask me for suggestions!
In a word: EXPOSURE. This is my forte. When it comes to exposure for sellers, there's no such thing as too little. I get your home out there with many different forms of media. Most importantly, I have one of the strongest Internet presences in the area, which is probably how you found me. I have a suite of "Valley and Maricopa" websites such as this one that covers the entire area. In addition I have many other smaller websites that target smaller niche areas. We also have multiple real estate blogs and utilize many different Internet websites to showcase your listing. We also employ some of the traditional techniques for sellers such as putting your home on the MLS (Multiple Listing Service), Realtor.com, HomeSmart.com, creating full color brochures, yard signs, virtual tours, and periodic open houses. I will communicate our weekly progress with you, keeping you in the loop and informed of activity and feedback about your home.
