Selling a Home or Property?

Choosing the Right Realtor to sell your home.

Can a real estate agent really help me in selling my property? The answer is YES!

All real estate licensees are not the same. Only real estate licensees who are members of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® (NAR®) are properly called REALTORS®. Kevin and Jolita Wagoner proudly display our REALTOR "®" logo on all of our  home and property marketing and sales literature. We are committed to treat all parties to a transaction honestly. Kevin and Jolita subscribe to a strict code of ethics and are expected to maintain a higher level of knowledge of the process of buying and selling real estate. An independent survey reports that 84% of home buyers and sellers would use the same REALTOR® again.

Real estate transactions involve one of the biggest financial investments you may experience in your lifetime. Transactions in today’s Flagler Florida market  today usually exceed $200,000. If you had a $200,000 income tax problem, would you attempt to deal with it without the help of a CPA? If you had a $200,000 legal question, would you deal with it without the help of an attorney? Considering the small upside cost and the large downside risk, it would be foolish to consider a deal in real estate without the professional assistance of a REALTOR®.

But if you're still not convinced of our  value, here are a few reasons to use us:

1. We can help you negotiate. There are myriad negotiating factors, including but not limited to price, financing, terms, date of possession and often the inclusion or exclusion of repairs and furnishings or equipment. Your purchase agreement should provide a period of time for you to complete appropriate inspections and investigations of your Florida property before you are bound to complete the purchase. We can advise you as to which investigations and inspections are recommended or required.

2. We will  give you up-to-date information on what is happening in the marketplace and the price, financing, terms and condition of competing properties. These are key factors in getting your Flagler property sold at the best price, quickly and with minimum hassle.

3. We market your property to other real estate agents and the public. Often, your REALTOR® can recommend repairs or cosmetic work that will significantly enhance the salability of your property.We market to other real estate agents and the public. In many markets across the country, over 50% of real estate sales are cooperative sales; that is, a real estate agent other than yours brings in the buyer. We are your  marketing coordinator, disbursing information about your property to other real estate agents through a Multiple Listing Service (MLS) or other HOME AND PROPERTY marketing networks, open houses for agents, etc.  Our CODE OF ETHICS requires us to utilize these  relationships because they benefit you.

4. We  know when, where and how to advertise your property. There is a misconception that advertising sells real estate. NAR ® studies show that 82% of real estate sales are the result of agent contacts through previous clients, referrals, friends, family and personal contacts. When a property is marketed with the help of your REALTOR®, you do not have to allow strangers into your home. We will  prescreen and accompany qualified prospects through your property.

5. We will  help you objectively evaluate every buyer's proposal without compromising your marketing position. This initial agreement is only the beginning of our process of appraisals, inspections and financing -- a lot of possible pitfalls. We will help you write a legally binding, win-win agreement that will be more likely to make it through the process.
