There are two types of activities to
get a home sold once it is listed.
They are the traditional PASSIVE
way, to WAIT for a buyer to show up (open houses, classified ads), or wait for
another agent to bring a buyer to it.
Or...
I can spend my time
ACTIVELY and
AGGRESSIVELY
WORKING to find a buyer and promote other agents to bring
one to us. Ive chosen the second
method.
My
Objectives:
1.
To assist in getting as many qualified
buyers as possible into your home until it is sold.
2. To
communicate to you
every week the results of our activities.
3. To assist you in
negotiating
the highest dollar value
between you and the buyer.
