Selling a cottage to gain the greatest exposure for your property

Hi,

I'm, Peter Rollings, owner of this site

If it has come time to sell your property, piece of mind knowing that every part of your sale is covered professionally is so important.

For Sellers...

KEY QUESTIONS you should ask...

The first (of course)is..."What is my cottage worth?"

There are so many factors...

The location, the waterfront, the lake, the region, you're property itself...

...all combine to gain a "value" that you may list the price of your property at.

You 'may' have an agent say...

• "Your property is worth $xxx,xxx" without any supporting documentation....you are trusting their word
  
  
Or...


• they may come in with documentation, a CMA (comparative market analysis) and then say your property should be worth this much $xxx,xxx...this should be a minimum they provide
  
  
Or...


• You may think that you're property is worth a certain amount.... and get a nice surprise...finding out it's worth more that you thought...or, on the downside, not as much as you thought...
  
  

You also should ask...

What strategies do they use for marketing your property?

The fact is many Buyers (that are also reading this) will live hours away from your property...

...AND...

...today's advances in technology and marketing go FAR BEYOND listing your cottage, waterfront home or your luxury property just on the MLS® system and having a single property website.

Typical, routine answers, will follow...

Answers such as:

• We list on the MLS® system (everybody does unless its exclusive)



• We list on our company website (quite often a generic website all their agents have)



• We create a single property website for your listing (yes, some are amazing...yet most buyers never see them)



• We list in a local publication (a waste of time and money for select cottages and luxury listings)



• We list in a glossy magazine (how often do Buyers pick this magazine up when they live hours away)

Ask these questions...

• Do they share cottages for sale listings on the DDF feed to give your property more exposure? (Many agents will not!)



• Do they have Buyers on a database that are actively looking now?



• What are they pro-actively doing for marketing now? (Most ARE NOT professional marketers, and stick with the old ways)



• Do they have a social media marketing strategy?(This will stump a lot of agents, remember...times are changing...and so are your Buyers.)



• What is your marketing budget? (Some have great budgets, because it costs a lot to list in a glossy magazine)

You want your cottage in front of the most buyers possible....

...like our Buyers that are looking across Ontario.

Pricing, based on comparibales, yet with an art of knowing the maximum amount you can achieve in your sale..pricing with a plan.

Marketing exposure EVERY SINGLE DAY to the maximum number of potential buyers can allow you to find the buyer for your property and gain the best possible price.

Direct factors that determine the value of your cottage

• Location- the region and lake your property is in/on


• Condition- the overall condition of your cottage property


• Pricing- the value established for listing your property

Factors that can determine YOUR final selling price

Competition- other properties in your region your cottage is competing against

Exposure- Marketing today is MORE THAN JUST listing on the MLS® system

Pricing- Again, repeated...the price is a key factor
