YOU CAN SELL YOUR HOUSE without me as your agent -- and save yourself a ton of money in the process. But there are times when going it alone just doesn't make sense. You may need to sell fast, or simply not have the time to devote to selling your house yourself.

I believe is honesty, selling your place may or may not be a cinch. All homes do sell, but creative marketing, experience, and teamwork may be required.

I have a strong track record selling homes. You may be tempted to give your listing to a friend or based on someone else's recommendation, but it's your home.

Interview me over the phone.
I know neighborhoods, current market conditions, and can tell you what is for sale in your area. Experience in every neighborhood is ideal, but even though I spend hours each day looking at homes across the valley being an expert in every one is not possible. You are your home's expert. You can also provide valuable local market intelligence that no database or internet resource is going to offer. I have access to and use the MLS, but you know your neighbors, your street, the markets and shops in your area- all of those things that make your home truly unique. I'll ask you a number of questions to get a better idea of your neighborhood above and beyond what I have access you.

Of course you want someone who will give you a break on the commission - I do.
I am not a discount agent nor is West USA Realty a discount broker. I am a full service agent and I know the business. I have bought and sold several homes and believe in an agent being fairly compensated for the duties they perform, but technology is streamlining the business. Discount brokers are offering cut rate commissions for less service and leaving some of the details for you, the seller, to figure out, but there is a middle ground. I offer a commission structure similar to that of a discount broker, but work for the largest real estate company is Arizona. My commission structure is not dictated by West USA and you may not get the same deal from another West USA agent- it's a personal choice. It's all about you - the seller. I'm focused on your bottom line, not my cut off the top.

The pitch.
You deserve a detailed marketing strategy that describes my plan for advertising, open houses and marketing to other agents. You also deserve a detailed explanation of the listing agreement and to have all of your questions answered. I will also give you a suggested list price for your home (based on comparable sales in the neighborhood) and an estimate for the amount of time it will take to sell. I don't set unrealistic prices just to get a listing. If your home is over priced it will sit on the market and not be shown by any agents.

The selling process should be hassle-free.
