Overpriced-Under Marketed Tempe Homes and Condos DO NOT SELL!
· The number one reason for short sale expired listings is overpricing. If your home is overpriced it will not receive many showings and you will be sitting, waiting, and watching as other homes relish in this buyer’s market. It is an unfortunate reality that many sellers believe their home is worth more than the market dictates and refuse to listen to skilled Tempe Short Sale Negotiators. Your home is worth what a buyer is willing to pay and the value an appraiser will attribute to it. If your home or condo is overpriced it is critical that you price it at or near market value. If you owe more than your home is worth and pricing your home at fair market value is not an option then it is time to consider a short sale!!
· Condition - Homes not MARKETED CORRECTLY- Do not sell for full market value!
·
· Many expired listings were not in “sell-able” condition. They could not compete in their current condition. Today's First Time Home Buyer could not afford the after purchase cash to put the home into the condition they desired or they just weren't willing to. Buyers are looking for a "deal". They want homes that are pretty much ready to move into.
· The most important sales tool for marketing your Tempe short sale properties is PHOTOS. Nothing attracts a buyer to your listings the way a large selection of good photos representing your home in an attractive and realistic manner will. When buyers search the Internet, it is the photos that catch their eye and draw them in. If the main photo is attractive and well presented, they will look at the other photos. If the home or condo is still appealing to them, they will read the copy and call their agent for a showing.
· Many listings Tempe short sale listing agents choose to do 25% of the work expecting 100% results. Many homes on the MLS have 1 really bad photo of the exterior of the home and nothing else. Poor quality, bad angle, wrong time of day all contribute to a negative presentation of your home. The fact of the matter is many agents are well to say it honestly-LAZY. Homes are selling and the proof is in the numbers but the numbers also indicate the lack of marketing that was given to the short saleTempe Expired and Canceled Listings.

·
· Is your Tempe Short Sale agent capable of sending your listing to the top of the search engines where buyers will find it? Few are and few have a designated marketing client relations employee that is designated to only marketing your home to All AVENUES available. Most Tempe Short Sale agents rely on large sites like Trulia, Zillow and Realtor.com to promote your listing and they are relying on the mls to just add the listings for them. You won't know this but this is problematic unless you sit down and look over the amount of marketing that should go into listing your Short Sale Tempe homes and condos for sale. Your listing will be lost in a sea of other listings and will not receive the consumer attention that you need and deserve.
·
· The MLS will send your listing to these sites, and many others, automatically when you list. Your Tempe Short Sale agent will receive weekly, monthly and quarterly reports from these sites showing the statistics. Having been the recipient of these reports, I can tell you that even with a purchased featured listing there are very few click throughs to individual listings and few, if any, buyers contacting the agent from those sites. Sellers do not know this and are impressed by these sites not knowing that these sites are not the best place to reach local buyers.
·
· When a buyer shops for Tempe Short Sale real estate on the search engines they use search terms that relate to the type of home and the neighborhood they are interested in. For example a buyer searching for a Short Sale condo in Downtown Tempe is likely to put Downtown Tempe Condo Short Sale into Google. Or a buyer searching for a home in ASU may put ASU Short Sale Homes for sale into Google or another neighborhood like and so on….
· Few agents own websites that have top search engine placement and that utilize the web. Most rely on the seller’s lack of knowledge regarding how the search engines work and promote the larger sites, which really just don't drive the buyer traffic the way they claim to. The reports speak for themselves.
·
· Many Tempe Short Sale agents offer single listing web sites. That is a web site dedicated to your property only. Imagine having a site with your address as the URL? Sounds great doesn't it. What you, and probably the Tempe Short Sale agent, do not know is that new sites are placed into the Google sandbox and will be held back by Google for months before they are slowly allowed to rise in the engines. But it sounds impressive doesn't it? By the time GOOGLE finds your home if this is the only marketing tool the agent is using, you will have likely already canceled and allowed your Tempe Short Sale listing to expire.
·
· Web and Blog sites do not just float up to the top of the engines, Google must designate them as authority sites, and this can take years. Proven sites with years of really good content under the belt are the sites that Google recognizes. Sites that provide real value to consumers. Very few sites ever attain this highly coveted status.
