How
Is Jim Different:
-
Jim doesn't
just work 5 days a week. Jim is available 7 days a week and
after hours. Potential buyers and buyer agents can contact
Jim anytime with questions, to view a property, or to write
an offer.
-
Jim
places 2 lockboxes on each property. A combination lockbox
allows maintenance people access to the property when
needed. An electronic lockbox allows real estate agents to
access the property 7 days a week without calling to ask for
the combination of the lockbox. This makes it easier for
other agents to show the property to potential buyers, and
it allows us to track which agents have shown the property and
how many times they've shown it, giving us a much more
accurate picture of the activity on each property.
-
Jim
doesn't just rely on the MLS to sell the properties. Jim
markets bank properties much like a regular listings.
Magazine, newspaper, email blasts, and Internet marketing
are some of the strategies Jim uses in promoting each
property.
-
Jim's
goal is to get the highest and best offer for each property.
When an offer comes in on a property, Jim encourages
competition for the property by notifying other agents who
have shown an interest in the property, in an effort to
generate multiple offers for the lender to consider. When
multiple offers do come in, Jim provides each agent, in
writing, with a multiple offer form encouraging them to
bring their "highest and best" offers to the
table.
-
Jim
and his team will provide the deposits to have the electric
and water turned on so that buyers can properly view and
inspect the property.
-
Jim
provides constant feedback and communication with the
lender, through phone calls and email, to ensure that the
lender stays informed about the property condition, property
activity, and market conditions.
