frequently asked questions Are there things we should do to our home to help ensure the maximum price? Yes. There is a benefit to making sure your home looks its best prior to offering it for sale. There are also small remodeling jobs that will pay off at resale. I can advise you about specific improvements that will increase your home's marketability and value. How often will you advertise our property? I don't just list homes; I market them. I will make sure your home is marketed to potential buyers around the clock, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I will customize a marketing plan to reach the types of buyers most likely to purchase your home. I know how to maximize the power of the Internet for my clients, while also using traditional methods including newspaper ads, brochures, yard signs and direct mail. Will you be present at all showings? At open houses I, or a member of my team, will be there. For showings, potential buyers will bring their own agents to see your home. Most buyers prefer only their own agents be present when evaluating a prospective new home. What if another agent tells us they can get us more for the house? Some agents will quote a higher listing price just to get your business, but an overpriced house will not sell. If you choose to work with me, I will conduct a comparative market analysis prior to recommending an asking price for your home. I will explain how I arrived at the price, but ultimately the decision is up to you. I will offer my professional opinion on how the market will value your home. Do we have any responsibilities during the marketing of our home? Your primary job during the sale of your home is to keep it neat and clean for showings and open houses. A large part of a home's appeal involves staging, which is everything from furniture placement to home fragrance. I will advise you on how to stage your home well, giving you easy tips and quick fixes to maximize your home's appeal. What happens once we get an offer? I will help you consider each offer and negotiate the best deal for you. Once you've accepted an offer, I will guide you through the entire closing process and ensure everything proceeds smoothly.

about me How am I different from other real estate agents? I too was once a “consumer” in the real estate market, and I have experienced all levels of service and competency from the agents I employed. This experience has proved invaluable in helping me develop the high level of service that my clients have come to expect from me. Technology Using the latest technology in my office and in the field, I am readily accessible to my clients, other agents, lenders and escrow agents, etc, wherever I am. Through my phone I can send and receive contracts and documents, s, text messages and faxes, and can respond quickly to that information as it comes. Expertise It is normal business practice for me to preview new home listings as they come on the market, which gives me a good sense of market value when it comes to helping my seller clients determine the right asking price. This is important because homes that are priced right to begin with sell faster and for a higher price than those that build “negotiation room” into their asking price. Communication When asked, most people consider good communication with their agent to be at or near the top of the list of what they consider to be good service. Sellers want to keep up to date throughout the various stages of the process, and like to hear from their agent regularly even if nothing is new. Clients for Life It is my sincere objective to serve my clients so well that they will feel compelled to write a glowing testimonial and refer their family, friends and co-workers to me so that I may serve them as well. It is a commitment which requires understanding of my clients needs and attention to detail. Personal Originally from Chicago, I currently live in Scottsdale with my wife Leigh, and our three children Julia, Jimmy and Bobby. I am a little league baseball coach and an Officer on the Board of Directors of the McCormick Ranch Little League. My Commitment to You My commitment to you begins by treating the sale of your home as if it were my own home. Having once been a real estate consumer, I understand the importance of being proactive with regard to communication with my clients and other interested parties. I also know that when you hire a real estate agent, you are looking for an expert who can navigate the process for you and consult with you on important matters as they arise. After all, if an agent can’t do this, then why would you need them? Bob & Mary Seller Jim Bolger jimbolger.com
