Are you thinking of selling your Bremerton, Silverdale and Port Orchard home? You should know exactly what it's worth before making such an important decision.
SETTING THE PRICE ON YOUR HOME..
The three factors to consider in selling your home are location, condition and price…and they are all related.
1. LOCATION
Your home's location and setting influence its value. A home inside a quiet subdivision sells for more than the identical home on a busy street. Remote areas typically sell for less than closing-in areas. Views, streams and landscaping usually enhance value.
2. CONDITION
New homes enjoy a marketing edge over resale homes because they are shiny and new and builders enhance their appeal by offering model homes (new, bright, decorated in current colors and amenities) for buyers to examine.
Your goal is to make your home as close to a model home as possible…being sensitive to costs. You have nearly complete control over condition and you can increase value and decrease marketing time by being sure your property is in the best possible condition.
3. PRICING
If Microsoft stock is trading between 90-95, it does no good to insist on selling at 99. Likewise, your home must be priced within the appropriate range. You must actually "sell" your property twice: first to a buyer and then to an appraiser. The buyer is more subjective and compares the amenities of your home to those of other homes in the same price range. The appraiser is more objective and compares age, size and cost-identifiable features in your home against other properties that have sold.
Ken uses his experience and expertise to fine-tune the price range by taking into consideration all these variables.
Let Ken do a quick "Comparative Market Analysis" for you. Also known as a CMA, this analysis compares your home to others that are currently on the market and to those that have recently sold.The CMA is a comparison of other properties in your area or like area that have recently sold. With Ken you will be able to compare age, size, amenities, condition and other variables with your own home just like the prospective buyer and appraiser. (You will also see the listing price and sale of these properties.)
