The Best Person to Call!

I will clarify all you need to know about current market conditions, current financing, and steps of listing your home. Personal service is my specialty. I value my clients greatly and promise prompt, professional attention. Selling your home is one of the most important decisions you will make in your life. Your home is likely your largest asset and this may be the biggest financial move you've ever made, one that requires significant thought and strategy.

Countless questions are unearthed during the process. How much is it really worth? How long will it take to sell in the current Real Estate Market? How do you handle buyers making undesirable offers?

As a top producing Realtor in North Vancouver, West Vancouver and Coal Harbour, with my years of experience and proven track record, it is my job to guide you through this complicated process, from beginning to end. I want you to get the maximum value for your home within your own time frame.

Pricing Strategies Exercised by Dodi Thorhaug

The competitive nature of the current Real Estate Market means that over-pricing by a few thousand dollars could make the difference between your home selling quickly or not selling at all.

Overpricing your home might might result in minimized offers, fewer showings, fewer agent responses, limited financing, limited buyers qualified for your type of home, or a smaller net price. Avoid these outcomes by setting the price of your home at its' market value when you first bring your home to the market.

Any number of the following scenarios could cause a roadblock between you and your goals. My responsibility to you is to identify potential pitfalls and eliminate them.

There are several criteria you should take into consideration when pricing your home:

  • Never select an agent based on price.
  • Pricing in rising and falling markets
  • Regression and progression
  • Reasons for overpricing
  • The largest impression and most impact a property makes on the market
  • Benefits of proper pricing

For more details on Pricing Strategies,
please call me at 604-644-3634 or contact me at dodi.t@shaw.ca

In closing, please remember that together we can control the Market Plan for your property. And, while we have no control over the Real Estate market, we can fully understand it and work it to your benefit.

Estimating Market Value

To arrive at an accurate estimate of fair market value, 3 important variables must be considered:

  • A list of comparable properties in your area that are currently for sale
  • A list of comparable properties in your area that have recently sold
  • A list of comparable properties in your area that were listed and subsequently have not sold

How Long Does It Take?

The length of time it takes to market a house will vary. Some properties will sell in just a few days, others may require several months. Following are the six factors that influence the time it takes to sell a property.

  • Competition
  • Price
  • Property
  • Financing
  • Timing
  • Marketing

I regularly advertise in North Vancouver & North Shore area magazines and newspapers and send out direct mail pieces to potential buyers.
