We Bring Buyers and Sellers Together! Here's How: 

Whether you’re a first-time home seller or not, you’ll probably have a bunch of questions before deciding to list your home for sale. How much needs to be done before putting it on the market? How much is my home worth? Am I going to have to fill out a ton of paperwork?

Fortunately, you have a friend in the business!  Over the past 25 years, Alltown Broker Ed Duffy has sold hundreds of homes in every condition and every market.  So keep calm and read on as we describe how we'll get you the highest possible price for your home, within a reasonable timeframe and without losing your mind!

1) Preparation 

Crack on the front step? Leaky sink in the bathroom? Outdated kitchen?  These are all common issues in any home and usually aren't as unfavorable to a sale as you might think.  We will detail exactly what needs to be done to get the most value out of your sale, without breaking the bank. In most cases we can work around unfavorable conditions without spending a dime!

During this stage we also begin to develop our promotion material, contact cooperating brokers and reach out to buyers who've recently put in offers which were not accepted. Our goal is to generate a buzz around your home BEFORE it hits the market. 

2) Price

Pricing is used to attract buyers & offers, which then leads to negotiating the real price. So it’s important to price your home so it generates lot of buyer interest… and ultimately lots of offers. When you receive multiple offers, you have leverage and can negotiate higher prices.  But if priced too high and the buyers won't show up in the first place.  Priced too low, buyers realize you're looking for a bidding war and many may not want to partake.  It's all about balance!

3) Promotion

DON'T SETTLE FOR A SIGN ON YOUR LAWN! 

Simply putting a sign in the ground may have worked 20 years ago, but it doesn’t cut it in the Digital Age. 

In this day and age, your home should be marketed aggressively online. Many agents simply put a sign in the ground and enter the home on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS).  After, they wait and hope that buyers come calling. We call this "Post and Pray". 

We take things step further by utilizing the latest search engine optimization techniques, social media platforms, and digital marketing campaigns to promote your home to potential buyers.  Using these techniques, we're not fulfilling demand, we're MAKING a demand for your home and our results speak for themself!
