My Marketing Business Plan (shh, I don't share this with just anybody!)

Christi Cash, LLC
“Top 50” Services I provide my Sellers from Consult to Closing

1.            Research Comparable Homes on Market (our Competition); What’s Under Contract (what’s Selling at what price points), and Recent Sales (which may be used in Appraisals).

3.            Prepare a Comparative Market Analysis of property and provide current Statistical Analysis and explain positioning your property properly.
4.            Obtain Property and Community information that will help me prepare the listing, advertising and marketing materials.  Such as: What type of improvements have you done? What other features of your home make it attractive to buyers? (Kitchen, flooring, decks, pool, fireplaces, etc.)  How much do you owe on the property?
5.            Determine Market Value and explain the difference between Market and Appraised Value.
6.            Tour of Homes—just like a buyer goes and tours the homes for sale, you will have that same opportunity to assess the competition with Christi .  Know how you stand amongst the competition.  We can do this as  a Live Tour or Tour online.
