Finding an agent you can trust and rely upon is the first and most
important step in the selling process. Tappe White Real Estate
Services has made that search easier for you by only teaming with
those agents who accurately reflect the purpose, mission, and vision
of our organization.
Once you chose your Tappe White agent, an initial meeting prior to
listing your home will provided much needed information to the agent
concerning your needs and current situation. Laying a solid
foundation makes the rest of the selling process much smoother.
Once you have met with your Tappe White agent and feel confident
that he/she will well represent you in the selling process, and once
the agent is able to gain an accurate understanding of your needs,
an agreement should be established concerning expectations from both
parties.
In order to sell your home in the timeframe you request, both
parties must be committed to the effort. A listing agreement will
signify that mutual commitment and will set the parameters for the
relationship. Once a listing agreement is in place, your Tappe White
agent will do everything in his/her power to to sell your home.
A key element that must be considered when placing your house on
the market is the selling price. The primary reason for houses
sitting on the market for long periods of time is that they are
typically priced inappropriately.
Your Tappe White agent will help you determine a price for your
home that will represent the overall value of your home as compared
to the current market. The price will also be determined by your
time constraints.
Once your house is listed, you want to showcase it! Often times,
minor improvements can make a major difference. Your Tappe White
agent will advise you concerning these adjustments. He/she will be
well trained concerning which improvements will be worth the
investment. In staging a house, a little bit can go a long way.
When offers begin to roll in, and they will if priced correctly,
your Tappe White agent will be there to advise you concerning your
response. With his/her knowledge of the market, your Tappe White
agent will help you determine which offers you should pursue. You
will be at peace through the entire negotiation process, knowing
that your agent is getting you the best price for your home.
If there are any repairs to the property or removals from the
property, agreed to through commitment of contract, they will need
to be completed as per the agreement.
The good news is that your house has successfully sold. The
challenging news is that you need to move. Hopefully, these
arrangements are already in the works. If you are remaining in the
DFW area or if you are moving to another part of the country, your
Tappe White agent can help you in the buying process. Tappe White
has relationships with agents, throughout the country, who share and
represent our same commitment to excellence and personal service.
