Facts about Expired Listings in Fremont:

15 to 25% of all listings DO NOT SELL.  The market rejects them.  The market did not accept the marketing effort, the price, the condition, the location or all four.  The good thing is you control two of these.  Price and condition and agents control one, the marketing efforts. If you still need to sell your home here are some things to think about.

Marketing Effort:  Make sure your Realtor is getting the most out of their marketing. The basics just are not acceptable any more. Find a Realtor that has a comprehensive plan and system that includes this as minimum.  For sale sign, open houses, enhanced multiple listing system and websites, virtual tour, brochure box, cards, target marketing, showings follow ups, feedback and much more.

Condition:  When accessing the condition of your home you should look at your home from a buyer's perspective and do what I like to call the One hundred dollar bill test. If you lay out 5 $100 dollar bills and asked someone to pick one although they are all the same and can perform the same function people will always pick the nice clean crisp new one over a dirty, wrinkled, damaged one.  How does your home perform when put up against others that are comparable? Always keep in mind your Showing condition vs. Living condition.

Price:  Over priced is usually the reason it did not sell but condition will help determine what the market is willing to pay.  Remember YOU CONTROL PRICE AND CONDITION.  The wrong price attracts the wrong buyers.  It creates a bad reputation for the house in the market place and makes properly priced homes look even better.

Location:  Neither you nor I can do a thing about the location except accent the positives and minimize the negatives.
