Hey, Neighbors. http://thec21advantage.com/journal/hey-neighbors Thu, 27 Mar 2014 02:03:16 +0000 http://thec21advantage.com/?p=3583 There’s a common misconception out there about Real Estate offices, and you’ve probably fallen for it without a second thought. The first thing you learn about a local Real Estate office is where it’s located. How else would you know where to drive?

Many people like to believe that the location of an office determines what area they serve. Surely they only know about that neighborhood or area of a town if they work from there, right? Wrong. But let’s back up; Real Estate Agents are essentially their own boss. They can work at any office of their choosing in any town. Just so long as  they can pop in and write up a contract, print off a list of homes to show you, or fill up their balloons for an Open House, they will be happy with their office’s location. Being a Real Estate Agent is a hands-on, gone-all-day, field work kind of job.

Our Agents serve all over Columbia and it’s surrounding areas. We have three locations to stop by and visit, but we also have Agents spanning the sate from KC to STL. And yes, they all filter back to our main office location at the well known intersection of I70 and 63  because here, we make it feel like home. We want our clients to know that there is truly an Agent out there for everyone. Call us your soul-Agent. We ‘get what you mean’ when you describe to us what it will take for a house to be your dream home. Location is something you can’t change about a house. We know by heart all of those  little bits of history throughout each corner of Columbia. We’ve attended these high schools, we’ve aged into Alumni at the University, we bought our first homes in your neighborhoods, and now we strive help others, find their next homes in those same places. And with as many Agents as we have now, it wouldn’t be a surprise if one of them was your neighbor!

Regardless of the office, don’t limit your home buying or selling experience to ‘the place up the street’. We want you to feel confident that your Agent knows the area you’re looking in, but finding a knowledgeable Agent that makes you comfortable can be more rewarding in the long run than settling for the nearest office.

Four Key Reasons Why Your Home Did Not Sell! http://thec21advantage.com/journal/four-key-reasons-why-your-home-did-not-sell Mon, 17 Feb 2014 07:09:04 +0000 http://thec21advantage.com/?p=2885 Has your home sat on the market for months and months when trying to sell in the past? Too often this is a reality too many homeowners find themselves dealing with. Working with an Agent or trying to sell on your own, here is a list of the top four key reasons why your home did not sell as fast you may have liked to!

  1.  Ineffective marketing plan. When we list your home our reputations are on the line. Hard work and the power of today’s technology are proven methods of getting a property SOLD. We don’t just put a sign in the yard and wave as we drive off!
  2. Poor communication. Teamwork between the seller and their agent is key and cannot be overstated. Are you a team of one? Does your agent take time to communicate as often and effectively with you as you would expect?
  3. Condition of your Home. Have you made your house someone else’s dream? Do cash allowances work in a sale or is there a better way? We will advise you as to the best approach.
  4. Your home was not accurately priced. We will research and conduct a Comparative Market Analysis for you. The facts in our report will pinpoint the fair market value of what your home should sell for.

If you are considering re-listing with the same agent ask yourself, “What will they do different this time?” Our past analysis indicates that the odds are pretty much against you.

So, if time has run out on your current home listing… Call us right now!
