Adding Value & Proper Pricing

Before your property is put on the market for sale, please take the opportunity to make the important improvements or repairs that can add value and improve the sale price of your property. Some of the more cost effective improvements include painting both exterior and interior, curb appeal and landscaping, refinishing hardwood floors and new carpeting, kitchen remodel or upgrades and lighting, trim and accessories.

All real estate is different so pricing is then determined by analyzing the following factors:

* Average sales price of previous “comparable” sales
* Physical condition of property
* Aesthetic appeal of property
* Neighborhood Location
* Current market conditions
 

Disclosures

We develop and produce a comprehensive disclosure package designed to educate the buyer about the history and condition of the property, to comply with legal disclosure requirements and to protect the seller.

Reviewing Offers and Closing the Deal

We create a detailed evaluation of potential buyers and offers including: price, size of down payment, loan qualifications, terms, buyer's firmness or need for property, and any statement from the buyer or agent. We are careful to pre-qualify the buyer to reduce the risk of falling out of contract. We monitor each step of the escrow period in terms of the contractual obligations for a smooth transaction. Premium Properties will finesse, negotiate and work to overcome obstacles to move the transaction forward to close the deal and sell the property. We work by referral and therefore hope that you will be pleased with our service and will refer all your friends.
