How To List A Home To Sell Right Away

It seems to me that most home owners put very little effort into research before they first list a home for sale.

They put a lot of thought into WHY they want to move, and they put a lot of thought into WHERE they want to move, but I am amazed at the lack of research home sellers perform before they decide WHO they want to hire to help them move.

More than 60% of people who list a home for sale (for the first time) end up failing to sell their home, so they find themselves in a frustratingly difficult situation that could have been avoided.

Most Fail When They List A Home The First Time

In the real estate graph below, we track all of the homes that "leave" the market every day. They either leave because they were sold (success), or they leave for any other reason (failure).

List A Home Successfully

Currently, 44% of all home sellers are failing, and many of these sellers are on their third (or more) real estate listing agent!

Can you imagine knowing WHERE, WHEN, and WHY you want to move, but not being able to go now because you didn't know WHO to move with? Fortunately, you don't have to list a home to discover who NOT to work with. You can figure that out online.

Don't submit to a "3rd time's a charm" mentality, sell your home today with the first (right) real estate company that you hire. Here's how:

List A Home For Targeted Exposure

The key to selling a home (the first time you list a home for sale) is by hiring the right real estate company who has a demonstrated edge on local marketing on the internet.

No matter which REALTOR you choose to hire, your home will likely be listed for sale on all the national and international mega realty sites. Ironically, that's not where the ready buyers are.

If you look at any of the research on where homebuyer's make their choices for viewing homes, you'll find that there is a dominant regional real estate site that has most of the traffic for people who will want to buy YOUR home. Why?

Because the large sites can aggregate data and attract people who are starting the home buying process. This might be "exposure," but it's not the targeted exposure to the small group of people who might be interested in your specific home.

Buyers "ready to pull the trigger" want more, they want the kind of local information that you cannot find without having "boots on the ground" locally. They want:

The average homebuyer takes over 9 months to buy a home, so they progress from large, aggregate real estate sites to the local site that can give them everything they want.

The prudent home seller will spend an hour on Google and discover THE local real estate site before they list a home for sale. Not A real estate site, but THE dominant player in the market.

They might or might not be the largest company, but they likely will have the highest success rate when they list a home for a client. And that's what you care about as a home seller, right?

You don't care how many agents they have or how many listings they have, or even how many homes they have sold, you simply want to know how effective they are at selling each home they list, correct? I mean, you're only hiring them to sell one home ... YOURS!
