HOW PRICE IS DETERMINED Our brokers look at various aspects to determine the market value of your property. We take into account things such as: LOCATION Location plays a large role in determining price. Factors such as proximity to public transportation, development and desirability of a neighborhood and conveniences are taken into account when considering price. COMPETITION Buyers will compare and interpret the value of your home based on other available properties. I will provide you with accurate comparables of properties that have both recently been sold and are currently listed to help you understand the competition. I will also provide a detailed analysis of these properties to examine how long they have been on the market, if they have undergone a price drop and any other factors that will be necessary in determining the best list price for you. TIMING Market conditions change and cannot be manipulated. I will provide a pricing strategy based on when your property is listed. BOND’s in-house marketing team will create an effective and aggressive marketing plan to ensure we maximize the timing of your property entering the market. CONDITION Property condition directly affects the price and speed of your sale. I will provide guidance and expertise on what steps need to be taken to make the best first impression on potential buyers.

MAXIMIZING REAL ESTATE VALUE Simple cosmetic changes requiring minimal time and expense can be made to increase the value of your property. Since buyers compare competing properties, we suggest a few practical tips to make yours stand out. Eliminate clutter Your property will feel larger and brighter, while allowing prospective buyers to explore it comfortably, envisioning it with their own personal touches. R epair If you think something is too much trouble to fix, chances are buyers will, too. Making repairs allows you to present your property in a better light and increase its value. C lean Presenting a clean home to a buyer shows them the home has been valued and cared for. Presentation Place fresh flowers in the apartment, open all of the drapes/blinds, turn on all of the lights, make the beds, put all clothes away, turn off the televisions, and be sure the kitchen and baths shine. Head Out Potential buyers are much more comfortable and will be more likely to discuss how they feel about a property if the seller is not at home during the showing.
