Paradigm Realty will help you maximize the profit from
the sale of your home quickly and with a minimum of hassle. Selling
your home quickly in today's market demands that you have a
professional, experienced team at your side. Paradigm Realty's agents
have decades of experience selling all types of properties, from small
investment homes to large estates. Our agent's clients have included a
"Who's Who" of corporate executives and sports figures. Rest assured
that the sale of your property will be handled with care, discretion,
and the utmost professionalism every step of the way.
When selling your home, remember that approximately 80% of home buyers
are represented by real estate agents. This fact makes it imperative
that your home is advertised on the realtor's multiple listing system, or
the "MLS." In addition, a home sold "by owner," on average, will sell
for 16% less than a home sold by a realtor. So, as you can see, the MLS
is an invaluable tool that no savvy homeowner will ignore.
Paradigm Realty currently offers two programs to clients. Both programs
feature exposure on the MLS. Your choice will hinge on whether you wish
to minimize the amount of commission paid, or your time invested in the
sale of your home.
OPTION 1 - THE MLS ONLY LISTING ($500)
The "MLS Only" listing offers you a flat listing fee of only $500.
Included in the fee is a listing on the realtor's multiple listing service
and on the internet. We supply all of the forms needed to complete the
purchase offer, assist in setting a realistic selling price, provide
brochure templates, install a yard sign, make marketing recommendations,
and will recommend a title company. You will be responsible for showing
the home, holding open houses, negotiating the selling terms, filling
out the purchase agreement, coordinating the closing, and advertising
the home in newspapers, if desired. You still need to offer 3%
commission to the selling agent. After all, agents are paid solely on
commission. Put yourself in their shoes, and you can see why many
agents steer clear of 2% or 2 1/2% listings. But, the $500 listing
offers numerous, creative possibilities to sell your home quicker and
for more profit. For instance, since you are only paying $500 to list
your home, you can offer the selling agent 4% or 5%, instead of the
customary 3%. You are still saving 1% to 2% of the sale price in
commission compared to a 6% listing (or $6,000 on a $300,000 home), yet
you will have agents fighting to show your property! Think about it, if
you were a real estate agent and there were two dozen homes on the
market that matched your client's requirements, are you going to be most
enthusiastic about the 23 homes offering you 3% commission, or the one
offering you 4% or 5%? Offering a higher commission will also allow you
to ask a higher selling price and sell your home quicker. The extra
money you save in reduced market time, and the extra profit that you
make with a higher selling price is money in your pocket. All
accomplished while still saving thousands when compared to a traditional
6% listing!
OPTION 2 - THE FULL SERVICE LISTING (6%)
Sit back and relax. Paradigm Realty will handle all of the
details of your home sale. Our agents will do a complete market
analysis to determine the most profitable listing price, print
brochures, install a yard sign, make home "staging" recommendations,
list your home in the MLS and on the internet, handle all showing
appointments, negotiations, paperwork, and schedule and coordinate all
closing activities. |
