Why Sellers Choose Maureen Cool - Two Major Questions to Answer Before You Sell Your Home!  
Before you list your home For Sale, there are two important questions that should be addressed before you sign the Listing Agreement. Both are critical to a successful sale.
 |
The first question is "How much should the list price for my home be." When a seller prices their home within an appropriate market value range for their home, they will net more money for their home, sell their home more quickly, and with a lot less stress. I will provide you the information and counsel you need to properly set your asking price and get you home SOLD in the least amount of time. |
| Perhaps the second and most important question is "Which Realtor should I select to market my home?" NOT ALL REALTORS ARE ALIKE! You owe it to yourself and your family to get your money’s worth. It takes more than a Realtor’s sign in the front yard and entering your home in the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) to get your home SOLD. This approach represents the lowest level of service for which you are still paying a top dollar service fee. |
| Even though your property may be listed in the database of available homes for sale in the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), it takes creative and aggressive marketing to get the word out and compete with all the other sellers for qualified buyers. My approach is based on an effective mix of newspaper advertisement, direct mail and Internet marketing. Did you know that three out of four homebuyers begin their search on the World Wide Web? Marketing your home with me I will have it on the Internet within 24 hours of listing and you will have immediate access to all buyers who want to live in Highlands County.
I will communicate with you every step of the way. It is important that you are fully aware of the results of my marketing as well as feedback on showings. My sellers rate my communication as exceptional and second to none.
Finally, I am so convinced that you will be absolutely delighted with my service that I provide you with an UNCONDITIONAL GUARANTEE. If at any time during the term of the listing from day one, you are not completely satisfied, I will release you from the listing agreement unconditionally with no obligation or cost. Other Realtors will not do this! Why should anyone list and get stuck with a Realtor who will not guarantee his or her service?
Please call me at 863 385-0077 ext. 215 for a free consultation to discuss your selling needs and to talk about any questions you may have. That’s how it all starts.
Or if you prefer, please fill out the form below giving us as much me as much information as you can about your home and timetable for selling so that I can be better prepared when we talk. As always, there is no obligation. I look forward to working for you!
As a seller you need to be informed! Here are some great links for you to stay on top of the ever changing market.

Selling Your Home >Plumbing Preparations
The plumbing is one of your home's most mysterious systems. The pipes are hidden in the wall, and when you have a problem, you have to call in a plumber. Since plumbers' rates are hefty, prospective buyers are often frightened away by evidence of leaky pipes, ceiling stains below shower pans, or antiquated bathroom fixtures.
If you are planning to sell your home, it is a good idea to solve your plumbing issues before you place it on the market. Take care of any cosmetic damage that leaks may have caused after the plumber has finished his work. Plumbing repairs are cost-effective, because most sales agreements call for all systems, including the plumbing, to be in working order. If you have a problem, you will probably have to repair it before the closing anyway, so by doing it ahead of time, you eliminate that issue. Plumbing that is in top condition will make your home appear to be well cared for and will make it more attractive to potential buyers.
