THE DINOSAURS ARE DEAD
Dinosaur: an older agent that doesn’t understand the digital tools required in the new era of real estate, like social media marketing, database management, virtual content, etc. The dinosaur listing agents are making you pay more for less and getting you worse results.
DINOSAUR REAL ESTATE AGENTS
Charges 6% commission paid by the seller…for what exactly?
Sends mailers to the neighbors to promote themselves instead of selling your property.
Uses conventional email blasts that get less than a 5% open rate, or even worse, go to spam or the promotions tab.
Shoots interior photography and a couple exterior shots.
Expects you to fix up your house before you sell out of your own pocket.
Holds 2 day open house over the weekend for 4 hours total.
Sends their rookie “Team Agent” to open house.
Sets “office” hours that limits your communication access.
Believes that it’s a seller’s market and your house will just “sell itself”.
STEPHENS REAL ESTATE
Charges 4%: a marketing fee, a transaction service fee, and a buyer’s agent finder’s fee.
Uses social media marketing to target specific traits of buyers that are qualified to purchase your home.
Gets over 80% open rate on email campaigns using my proprietary mail merge program to generate exposure with agents who have qualified buyers for your home.
Shoots professional photography with interior, exterior, drone footage, 3D virtual walkthrough, and eye-catching twilight photos at no cost.
Offers comprehensive concierge program that allows you to do small to major renovations with no fees, no interest, and only pay when your home sells.
Holds 3 day Mega Open House for 12 total hours plus a week long of “Coming Soon” pre-marketing.
You get me present, always. Start to finish.
You get access to me 7 days a week, and if I don’t respond to a phone call with a call or text within 2 hours, I credit you $100.
Has specific tools and systems to generate exposure, get buyers to compete, and gets you the highest price and best terms possible.
My results are staggering:
My last listing had had over 200 people at the open house, 15 offers, and sold $266k over the asking price. And my AVERAGE is 106 people at the open house, 7.5 offers, and $72,600 over the asking price. Yes, I keep track.
LONG LIVE THE CONSUMER:
Real estate has been a opaque business for too long that has left too many sellers asking, “I pay what? And get what again? Why?”
Not anymore.
I specifically designed Stephens Real Estate with client feedback in mind to create value adding programs that solved pain points and cemented deep and personal trust so that the home selling process exceeded both their monetary and service expectations.
I believe I’ve done just that, and now my job is to prove it to you.
To summarize:
I leverage the latest digital tools, social media marketing, high end imagery, and massive open houses to drive exposure, get buyers to compete, and get the price you deserve. And my fees are almost half that of the competition, keeping tens of thousands of dollars in your pocket when we successfully sell your home.
