A past client referred us to sellers, Mr. & Mrs. Burton. At the time of our appointment, the two were painting the interior and had already hired a contractor to replace the carpet.They had interviewed several agents and at the end of our meeting they decided to hire us to sell their home!

We signed the paperwork and I suggested we lock in on list price right before we go LIVE in FMLS – of course we reviewed comps in depth and had a good idea of pricing, but I like to pull a last-minute CMA. Don’t want to leave money on the table.

Just Listed 3707 Casteel Park Drive – Outstanding Photography! New listing entered into FMLS & GA MLS at 3:00 p.m.; We implemented our hard-hitting marketing strategies. I received this email from Chris (seller). “Wow. It’s blowing up fast. Already five showings scheduled today.”

Tina: Good Morning Chris, Super news! Currently, we have 3 offers. All agents are aware of our multiple offers, and I’ve requested their highest and best by noon today.
Chris: Wow, that’s great. A lot quicker than I expected. The offers have 24-hour deadlines for response, right?
Tina: Since we’re in multiple offers, our timeline will be a little more flexible. I emailed Chris an itemized spreadsheet outlining each buyer’s offer and how they compared.
Chris: The highest offer looks too good to be true. Should I worry about bank appraisal? No home in the subdivision has gone even close to this offer price.
Tina: Yes, we should. – waiting on the lender to call me. Bidding wars to win can over inflate the price that will never appraise. Then into the process negotiation starts all over again. So far, I am leaning toward offer 2.

–After the closing, Chris said he had never had such a smooth list-to-close home sale and appreciated all the communication. He mentioned he loved that I called each of the lenders to verify their pre-qualification letters
