II. LEARNING THE ROPES ABOUT SELLING in NC
We've compiled this list of resources for sellers to help you "learn the ropes" or brush up on the home selling process:
III. CONQUERING YOUR COMPETITION Like an elite athlete, your property has to be in top condition and break away from the competition in order to win. In your case, this means you have to stand out from the competition in order to sell your home! A property that is well-positioned for its market has to be priced appropriately in relation to:
In today's "Buyer's Market", if you price your property too high to begin with, even if you lower the price later, your property could be stigmatized and languish on the market without being shown. Bob Bartram stays on top of the market so you don't have to! As a long-time expert in New Bern real estate and member of both the local Chamber of Commerce and Homebuilders Association, he studies changes in market conditions, analyzes your property and the correct comparable properties, and keeps his ear to the ground for legislative and other changes of importance to you. The results? Bob has the best Final Selling Price to Original Listing Price ratio in town, meaning he helps you price it right the first time, getting the best money as quickly as possible.
Bob is particularly well versed in the special needs for selling luxury Fine Homes & Estates properties over $300,000, including waterfront property, golf properties, and land. IV. STAGING TO SELL
With all the competition in existing homes for sale, buyers are demanding that a home they buy today be in near perfect condition before they make an offer. No seller can afford to lose any buyer, so getting your home in its absolute best condition possible before you list it isn't optional; it's a must! CNBC announced in Dec. 2009 that home buyers will not buy fixers-uppers. they don't have the money to do repairs.
We advise sellers to prepare a detailed New Homeowner's Checklist for buyers of special amenities installed in the home, utilities connected, services contracted with and their schedules and contact info (trash pick-up, landscaping service, etc.). V. MARKETING TO MOVEThe Bartram Team uses the gamut of marketing tools in our arsenal to get your house or land sold FAST and for TOP DOLLAR. We prepare a custom marketing plan for each seller and property to maximize the sales potential for you.
Once your house is staged, we photograph your property extensively inside and out, finding the right angles to make your home shine. We then prepare custom marketing flyers with photos and extensive write-ups for outside Take One boxes and to hand to realtors showing your home that extol the many virtues of your property that buyers will love. This allows the buyers to verbally and visually walk through your home and fall in love with it before they even step inside! We also advertise in local real estate and news publications, and other print media locally, regionally or nationally. ONLINE MARKETING
Photo Galleries, Slide Shows and Virtual Tours: Together with great copywriting about your house, pictures- we've found- are indeed worth a thousand words. Therefore, we work with you to create the best visual presentation possible with either extensive online Photo Shows and/or Virtual Tours to help showcase your property in its best light. We do extensive Search Marketing on Google.com and other top Internet search engines to attract as many buyers as possible, and have top rankings for everything from homes for sale to waterfront property, golf properties, 1031 exchanges, military relocation, retirement, and other New Bern real estate search terms.
We also market your particular property on the top local and national web sites including:
Sellers are an integral part of the Marketing Team! Your Bartram Team representative will give you as much advance notice as possible when a prospective buyer wants to tour your home with us or another agent from CENTURY 21 Zaytoun Raines Associates. Similarly, other agents who are part of the New Bern Area Multiple Listing Service will make appointments in advance through your listing associate (or directly with you if that's customary in your market). However, we recommend that your home be ready to show at all times. VII. HANDLING DETAILS FROM LISTING TO CLOSE
From advising you on the best pricing, to designing and implementing a custom marketing plan, to helping negotiate the best offer, setting up inspections and helping you interpret the results, following up with the buyer's agent and attorney, and double and triple checking all contracts and paperwork thoroughly, the Bartram Team closes the gap so your transaction will close smoothly and on time. (Bob Bartram actually teaches and reviews real estate contracts for other CENTURY 21 Zaytoun Raines Associates agents, so with him, you get the real expert in real estate contracts!) |

its condition and amenities, 
After
you schedule a private appointment to review your home or property, Bob will
prepare a custom analysis of your property and the competition in the market
and review it with you. 
The Bartram Team
specializes in identifying the important fixes and easy cosmetic changes
that make your home "shine" to potential buyers.
Today's "buyer's market" means that the smallest
defect in a home can turn away a buyer. The old days of giving a buyer a
credit at closing for them to replace worn carpet, remove dated (or any) wallpaper;
you must repaint, outdated paint colors are a sign to the savvy buyer that
the house is outdated! 
More buyers find properties through
the Internet today than even see yard signs! Fortunately, we are Internet
experts. Launched in 1997, our web site was the first real estate and New
Bern info site in New Bern, and is the most extensive and visited today. 
Handling
the details well is what makes the difference between failure
and success in a real estate transaction. And there's no one
better than Bob Bartram and his Bartram Real Estate Team in
making sure those details get handled right for you. |
