The first step is to make sure that we are a good match for each other.
We cannot work on every home we get a call about, so this phone call is to determine if your home is a good fit for the Exactly process. This is where you’ll get your questions answered, and discuss our process, pricing, and timelines. If we both agree that this is a good fit, then you’ll hire us by signing a Standard Listing Agreement with our company.
You can download the Exactly Transparent Listing agreement at this link here.
Now that you’ve connected with us, you’ll be paired with a Listing Strategist who will come to your home and meet with you in person. They will walk through your home to discuss staging strategies and address any areas of concern (and the same person will be with you all the way through the last step). This meeting also gives them an opportunity to learn more about your home to determine a recommended listing price. You will have an in-depth conversation about the details of your sale and they will help spot any red flags in your plan.
After viewing your home, your Listing Strategist will complete a thorough competitive pricing analysis to recommend a listing price and strategy with you. This will compare your property to other nearby properties, making adjustments for the differences in your home. Once complete, we will review this with you in person.
The decision on what to list your home for is always left up to you. Our job is to give you accurate data so that you can make an informed decision to maximize your return.
