Many times when I meet with sellers they ask me if I will accompany all showings. They mention that they want me there when a buyer and their agent is also there. I ask why this is important to them and then explain how it actually impacts them in a negative way Cidalia Mendonca Matukas www.HomesbyCidalia.com Keller Williams Realty Cell: 781-389-7252 Office: 774-568-0007 Please check out My YouTube page and see how I get homes sold, and testimonials of past clients! http://www.youtube.com/user/CidaliaMatukas http://localism.com/neighbor/matukas http://www.facebook.com/people/Cidalia-Mendonca-Matukas/1384876351 Friend me on facebook

Ten Rules to Follow When Selling a Home 1. Hire a good agent. A professional who knows your neighborhood and has a good track record in your community will go a long way in helping to find a buyer. 2.Clean out the clutter. Open spaces look best. Clean, and clean some more to make a good first impression. 3. Spiff up the property. Make any improvements that will improve the show of your home. When possible, stick with the simpler (and less expensive) options to be sure the buying price covers your investment. 4. Determine the worth. Know the fair market value of your home. Your REALTOR® can help you assess the cost. You may also want to have the home appraised. 5. Price it right. A REALTOR® can help you objectively set the price so that it reflects the value of your home and the trends of the surrounding community. 6.Come up with a plan. Are set on your price, or eager to move? How low are you willing to go to settle? 7. Get pre-approved for your next move. If you're looking to buy another house, make sure you know your financial situation. 8.Figure out your selling costs. Commission, ad costs, attorney fees, taxes and prorated costs may all come into play. Real estate agents deal with transactions every day and can give you a very close estimate of seller closing costs. 9. Set the stage. Clean the windows, open the curtains, turn on the lights, display fresh flowers. A bright house is a welcoming house. 10.It's show time. Be ready and willing to have your home shown any day, even with short notice. Making it difficult to see will also make it difficult to sell.

I recently had a client ask me "What is the hardest part of my job as a Realtor?" I thought that was a great question. The toughest part of my job is telling my clients the truth and not just what they want to hear. Many times I have to tell sellers that their homes are worth thousands of dollars less or I may have to tell them that although their collection is nice and means a lot to them that they should really put it away. These conversations are hard to deliver and need to be done so delicately. However, if I did not deliver the truth then the reality is I would not be doing my due diligence. I know what needs to be done to sell a home and it is my job to share that information with clients. At the end of the day, my job is to sell the property for the most money possible, with the least hassles in the shortest amount of time.
