Sell Right Guide - Lesson 1

How to Pick the Hardest Working Real Estate Agent in Lake Keowee SC

You’ve probably heard a family member or friend say, “I’m going to get into Real Estate and make a pile of money!” That’s probably why there are so many “Real Estate Agents”. In some cities (Lake Keowee is no exception), almost one percent of the population either has, or at one time had, a Real Estate license.

The truth is, you can make excellent money selling Real Estate – but few Agents actually do. Most Agents in Lake Keowee are part time, and only a small percentage of Lake Keowee Real Estate Agents do the majority of the business.

If you want to Sell Right, you need a full-time Real Estate Professional who loves to sell Real Estate. For her or him, it isn’t work… it’s a pleasure fueled by passion. So much so that they've become an Expert in Buying and Selling Real Estate of all shapes and sizes.

They're up by seven every morning, out in the field, and going to preview other Agent’s Real Estate Listings. They know the Real Estate Inventory in Lake Keowee and the surrounding areas like the back of their hand.

When it comes time to sell your home, your Agent has mastered the selling process and can help you package and market your property so that you'll sell it for the highest price in the shortest amount of time.

Not only do they know the process inside out and upside down, they've assembled a Champion Real Estate Team of professional Appraisers, Inspectors, Loan Officers, Title Officers, Escrow Agents, Buyer's Agents, Marketing & Closing Coordinators, and Insurance Agents that know the answers to all the questions that you must know to ensure a smooth home selling experience. Their team will help you ensure that your home sale doesn't go bad or fall through.

Preferably, your Agent is at local board meetings, open houses, etc. finding the best possible prices for homes in the Lake Keowee area. They'll often know of buyers looking for homes in your area before your home is even made available. A great Agent can be a great source of insider-only information that most people haven't a clue about.

Did you know that many Real Estate Offices have in-house lists of potential buyers they market to each other, that aren't public knowledge?

You need that kind of Real Estate Professional on your team… after all, if you have a $35,000 tax question, you would seek an accountant’s advice, right? If you have a $325,000 Real Estate question, you need a great Real Estate Professional!

A great Real Estate Agent must know Lake Keowee and its surrounding areas. This takes years of studying the markets and continually staying apprised of which homes are for sale and for how much.

While you are concerned with whether you should paint your home prior to selling, your Agent is researching every possible comparable home sold (past & present), regional appreciation, time-on-market statistics, and potential buyers for your home.

This Sell Right Guide, along with the expertise of your Real Estate Agent, will put you ahead of the pack and help you get the highest price for your home or property.

There are charts to give you ideas on how to price your home with your Real Estate Agent. There are tips on how to prepare your home and forms to help gather the information you need for prospective buyers.

Do your research and build a good relationship with your Agent, and your home selling process will be a positive and very successful one.
