STEP 21 – TO SELLING YOUR HOME – Time for showings!

April 7, 2020 By Andi Leave a Comment

Here are a few things to keep in mind before every showing:

  • Have your home look just like it did for the photographs (i.e., clean, all dishes put away, floors free of dog hair, etc.).
  • Put all toilet seat lids down.
  • Open all curtains/blinds.
  • Turn on all lights before you leave for a showing.
  • Hide any valuables such as jewelry, prescription meds, firearms, etc. or, better yet, take them with you.
  • Turn off alarm systems and lock all doors.
  • The buyer’s Broker will use the lockbox key to enter/exit and is supposed to leave all of the lights as they found it and all lights and lock the door when they leaves.
  • Showings usually last 15–30 minutes, however, in case clients come early we like to have you out 15 minutes before the showing is scheduled to start and stay out for at least 45 minutes in case the buyer is running late, or the showing goes long (that’s a good thing and usually means they like your home!). Therefore, plan to be gone for 45 minutes to 1 hour for each showing.
  • Take pets with you unless they are friendly and mellow around strangers, then they can be crated in the garage.
  • Leave marketing material in your kitchen them on the kitchen for showings.
  • After the showing, the buyer’s Realtor will automatically get an email asking for feedback. Generally, only about 30% of Realtors fill it out. If they do, we will send you a copy of any feedback immediately.

If you have any questions, please let us know! Now let’s get your home sold.

Testimonials from Happy Homeowners

Andi is a very motivated and talented professional who considers all aspects of any project before quickly moving forward with precise action.
~ Teresa

Andi quickly discovered our parameters and made sure we didn't waste time looking at properties we wouldn't be interested in and stay within our budget.
~ Trulia Reviewer

Andi has a keen instinct for smart marketing and is very responsible to her clients. She is a committed Real Estate broker and has a very sunny disposition. No matter what your needs are, be it finding a home or selling your current real property, her years of experience in the field are a huge asset!
~ T.W.

It has been a pleasure working with Andi. She always has a smile and a positive attitude. She put a lot of time and effort into selling my house and I couldn't have happier with anyone else.
~J.M.

Selling a house is STRESSFUL. There are so many things to do and so many cracks to slip into. Thanks to Andi, there were no cracks with her timely checklists; she showed me that selling doesn’t have to be so stressful. A good selling experience is possible! She is the broker to keep in your back pocket.
~ Rose W.

Andi was always on our side working to make our house purchase as simple and successful as possible. The best part about working with her was that she was always more focused on answering our questions, giving us good advice, and finding homes that met our needs than she was on closing a deal. All throughout the negotiations and closing she was there quickly handling any issues that may have risen. We would recommend her to anyone. If the time ever comes when I will be looking for a new home, there isn't any question on who my Realtor will be!
