5 Resources Used by the Most Successful Realtor
Realtors work in the best interest of their clients. A Realtors reputation is based on their attention to detail and ability to educate their client through the process and close the deal. Being successful Realtors means having the right team in place to cover all the details from start to finish. The first and foremost on that list is preparing the home to welcome buyers.
Resource #1: Outsourcing Organization
A home stager works to ensure your listing has best possible by eliminating distracting clutter, highlighting the property positives and work to entice buyers. We also guide your clients by giving them the tools to prepare for successful showings. The best part… you aren’t the one telling them to clear out their family air looms and insulting their taste. Don’t worry, we aim to make the sellers transition as smooth as possible.
Resource #2: Staging Strategically
Many times, there is that one multi-purpose room that can take away from the flow of the home. We put a lot of focus on the buyer’s experience and how to give them that “this is the one” feeling. Not to mention making your MLS and marketing photography stand out. Being able to show your portfolio of amazing listings to potential sellers makes staging a profit maker for you, as well as your seller.
Resource #3: Designing Desirability
You can have two homes just alike, but the buyer is going to see that neon paint in one, move on to the next and not look back. Even though the seller may think “big deal, buyer can just paint.“ But we all know “you don’t get a second chance to make a first impression.” We have the experience and knowledge to attract buyers and keep them focused on your listing.
Resource #4: Building Beautifully
If there are improvements that need to be made, let our team assess the cost vs value and recommend the most profitable choices. This is why we are called Designed Equity. We literally work to give value to the property, not wasting the seller’s funds for updates that are unnecessary. We are happy to work with Realtors discussing a budget based on market value and current equity, or lack of. This helps Designed Equity make a staging plan that’s most lucrative for your sellers. If contractors are needed, we know some great ones to get the job done.
Resource #5: Protecting Privacy
Let’s talk about lighting and windows. Maybe the home doesn’t get a lot of natural light and needs thoughtfully placed lighting and colors that project fresh and airy. Maybe there is an eyesore out a window that needs strategically placed curtains or shades to tastefully distract the eye. Limiting buyer objections is the quickest way to the closing table.
Realtors benefit so much more than just selling this one property. We free up your time for other responsibilities to build your business. Do you want to spend time explaining why your seller needs to clear out the shower of personal care items, tell them the house smells like a litter box, make sure the stainless-steel sparkles. You’re being helpful, but they may feel insulted. That can hurt your referral business. Designed Equity will help keep you in their good graces.
If you're ready for a great partnership, we would be honored to work alongside you. Reach out and let's chat about your upcoming listings!
Until next time,
