Picture this – you want to sell your home and you want to sell it for a high price (why not? Let’s live a little). In this week’s episode, we give you the two possibilities when you list for the higher price. One takes luck and the other…may take a little work, but has a HIGH success rate. Either way these are hot tips you won’t want to miss!
hello hello hello peeps this is Randol and diam brro here your local she’s Diane she’s also the lady I am the pickle presc Arizona that’s right uh we are your local Friendly full service amazing customer service husband and wife real estate team that’s us that’s us also of other people too yeah I’m not married to any of them that’s right yeah so we wanted to talk to you about how to get more than uh how to get more than your home is worth there you go sellers tend to want to do that so why not we (00:39) all do right we all want the best we can get yeah I you know every now and then we come across a seller who thinks their home is worth less than than it really is right uh and I always love that they say no we’re going to sell your home actually it’s worth more than that yeah it’s worth much more than that you know I you always love to have those conversations but they’re relatively rare tend to think their children all brilliant and attractive and most aren’t you know same thing with uh with homes (01:08) that’s har yeah it’s just the way life is so uh so usually we try to uh we try to talk sellers we think that the best place to price your home is exactly where it’s worth so we will do the comps and everything we have to do a windown on how I do comps at some point that’s right we don’t like to underprice and especially don’t like to overprice guys Co is over yeah CO’s over you’re not going to get that money that you got in covid times yeah let go of that dream yeah uh but some people just (01:43) they just refuse either they have to get more money or you know it’s just a blow to their egos or something they have to get more money so we thought we might talk about what are the options available if you want to get more money from your home then it’s really worth yep and the easiest one to understand is what we call stupid money so stupid money is people who have buyers who have more money than cents typically they’ve just sold something in another state uh typically much more than what they’re buying here they’re (02:23) downsizing to go into retirement so they are flush with cash they’re used to negotiate prices of homes that are 2 million 3 million and then they’re coming here and now they’re looking at homes that are like 800 a million um so they’re used to talking about numbers that are really really high if your home is $100,000 priced $100,000 more than it’s really worth you get one of these guys to come in and their agent for whatever reason is out to lunch yeah it might just happen you might get lucky it (02:59) might get get somebody who comes in and says you know what you’re telling me it’s really worth $875 but I love it and it’s only 950 which to me is a bargain coming from where I’m coming from I’m not going to equival over $100,000 so it’s it’s yeah so occasionally you get lucky with a buyer flush with funds and they’re happy and they don’t mind and they feel like they’re still getting a deal yeah so you might get what we call stupid money they’ll come in and be like (03:26) I don’t care love it it feels good feels right and I could never get this where I lived before so yeah so it works out for everybody so if you’re GNA do the stupid money thing you need to be quick about it because if you overprice your home and it sits on the market a long time it’s going to get stale uh this Market relies heavily on Buyer Agents because most buyers aren’t here and when agents get tired of thinking about your home they won’t think about your home anymore yep not going to recommend it to clients it’s (04:02) hard to get your home back on their map right so you might want to try the stupid money thing for a couple of weeks not too long maybe a month and then if it doesn’t work then you can say major discount you know we’ve discounted $100,000 and then that will get agents interested again in your home uh we’ll be glad if if you’re listing your home with us we’d be glad to use that tactic with you to try to get you that um it is rare that but it does happen from time to time we’ve seen a it does it’s a nice (04:37) little surprise yeah so that’s and it works out for both parties everybody’s happy that’s the easy the easy one is stupid money the other one is not so easy and that’s really spending a lot of time and effort and some money to Stage the home beautifully staged homes always sell even when the market is really really bet they sell and they sell for good prices uh the money that you spend in staging you’re going to get back several fold uh the idea there is to create an emotional bond with the buyer (05:15) for your home and you’re not going to get that unless you stage it very very well uh staging will pay for itself in that regard again if you’re interested in doing something like that we can work with you to do that a lot you know obviously a lot more involved than just the stupid money thing those are the two ways that we know of that’s it I don’t know of another way to make that happen yeah I mean we can we we advertise heavily everywhere too but yeah that’s pretty much it so when you’re pricing if (05:48) you want to go over keep these two things in mind if you really want top dollar you might have to yeah you know uh hope for stupid money and or pay some money to have it staged so now that that message was really aimed at our sellers uh now if you are a buyer chances are you’re selling someplace else you can use these tactics wherever your home is now that and that’s fine if you’re our buyer coming in here to presc it rest assured you will not be stupid money we will tell you what it’s worth we run (06:20) numbers on’ll that we sell we make sure that it’s been Priced Right so Absolut you can rely on us to make sure that you will not be a victim because if you are and you move into your home your neighbors will laugh at you stop they will they will laugh at you they could they you know neighbors love to come over and say I think you paid too much for that house hey you paid too much for that house are you aware you paid too much for that house which I think is appallingly rude but you know uh hey this is society we (06:55) live in nowadays people love to tell you what they think you don’t want to be that guy do not so anyway just wanted to let you know keep that in mind if you want a price High you know these are two things you know that you have to kind of hope for or be aware of so anyway hope that this helps and we hope that you’re having a great day today and we hope to hear from you soon fall is a
