Selling

When listing a property, the basics need to be done and we do them right! The following is a list of the services you can expect us to provide:

First Impressions Matter

We can help you declutter, do yard sales, and direct you to a handyman to do any repairs if needed.

MLS

We submit the property into the MLS (Multiple Listing Service) system. Over 100 sites: Zillow, Realtor.com, Homes.com, and all realtor sites.

Sign and Lockbox

We place a Colorado Ranch & Home sign and lockbox on the property for the convenience of showing your home. The dynamic Colorado Ranch & Home sign is a proven winner in attracting prospective buyers. In fact, we receive more calls from signs than from any other form of marketing. National statistics show that 20% of all actual buyers come from “For Sale” signs.

Photos

A photographer takes exterior and interior photos of your property, as well as 3 virtual tours, within a few days. This will be used in our marketing, including the exclusive Colorado Ranch & Home Realty web site, the MLS computer system and the National Association of Realtors® website at realtor.com.

Fact Sheet/Brochure

We prepare a personalized fact sheet to include features and benefits of your property for real estate brokers to use with potential buyers.

MLS Tour

We also schedule your property on the Wednesday MLS property tour. This is an outstanding opportunity to provide your property early, excellent exposure to Realtors® who are members of MLS in the Mancos, Cortez, and Dolores area.

Open Houses/Taco Tuesday

At your request, your broker will arrange to hold your house open on Sunday or have a Taco Tuesday. This allows potential purchasers to view your home at their convenience.

Showings

Sales brokers from our company, as well as our cooperating brokers, will want to show your home. An appointment will be made with you in advance with the name and company of the showing broker and the approximate time they will be showing the property.

Follow-up on Showings

You will receive direct feedback from realtors who show your home. Your realtor will be in direct communication with the showing agent, in order to answer any questions that may arise.

Pre-Qualify Buyers

When possible, all prospective buyers are pre-qualified, in an effort to show your home only to those who have the interest and ability to buy.

Marketing

We will publish well-written, quality graphics for your property including announcements for new listings, price reductions and open houses. In addition, your listing will be included in our highly effective and comprehensive Colorado Ranch & Home Realty web site –MovemetoSWColorado.com. Each time an advertisement is placed on your property, you will receive a notification from us informing you of the ad placement and publication date.

Advertising Log

In addition, our office maintains an extensive database that includes how your property was advertised. We can provide you with a report containing this information at any time.

Market Updates

We will continually update you regarding changes in the local real estate market through our in-house newsletter Market Report, published quarterly.

Represent You

We will represent your interests upon presentation of all contracts by the cooperating brokers and help in negotiating the best possible price and terms for you.

Calculate Proceeds

We will calculate the net proceeds from the sale of your property, taking into account your outstanding loan balance and closing costs.

A Successful Closing

We will facilitate a successful closing by networking closely with the cooperating broker, lenders, appraisers, inspectors, surveyors, title companies and other real estate related professionals.
