BECAUSE WE FIND THEM BUYERS!
So, Let Us Find Yours.


My monthly tip is located at the bottom of the page.

 

List your home with Castle Realty for $399* or 1%. Ask us how! 

Are you ready to sell your home?
We at Castle Realty would like to make you a special offer.
We will list your home for $399*.
What do you get for $399?
We follow a 180 step listing system. I have listed just a few of the 180 steps below.
*We will list your home in the MLS.
*We will put a lockbox on your house, so that other Realtors may show the home.
*We will put our toll free number --1 800 793 7620-- on all advertising saving you the hassle of constant phone calls.
*We will advertise your home on our website, www.NewListingsOrlando.com.
We are averaging 650 hits per week,with top 10 Google/Yahoo search placement and we are expanding our marketing reach every day!
*We will take photos of your house.
*We will write a property description and enter it into our website, where you will have a spot on our “Featured Property” page and on the home page slideshow.
*We will email your listing to our entire client database.
*We will offer professional advice and help when you need it.--Contract negotiation, transaction coordination, Market Analysis, consultations, etc 

How can we do this for $399? There’s got to be a catch.
Here are the conditions:
*You still have to offer a 3% commission to the Buyer’s Realtor.
*You have to sign a 6 month listing.
*The $399 is due when the listing agreement is signed.
That’s it.
We also offer a 1% standard listing agreement, to be paid at closing utilizing the same 180 step system ensuring a smooth transaction
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact me by phone or by email.
Castle Realty saves you money!

Selling your home is one of the most important decisions you will make in your life. How much is it REALLY worth? How long will it take to sell? How do you handle buyers making undesirable offers? 

As top Cental Florida real estate agents with years of experience and a proven track record, it is our job to guide you through this complicated process, from beginning to end. We want you to get the maximum value for your home, within YOUR time frame. Here are just some of the things that we will do to market and sell your home: 

- Buyers want to buy your home for as little as possible! Through detailed comparisons between your home and recently sold homes, and other properties currently on the Orlando, Windermere and Lake Nona market, together we can determine what your home is really worth in today's market. In the industry this is called a Comparative Market Analysis or CMA. We will do this for you, for free. 

- Buyers have their own timelines, which might not be yours! We make sure they don't waste your time by qualifying them as to their real ability to afford your home. 

- More buyers interested in your home means more money in your pocket when it is sold. Our extensive marketing of your home assures you of maximum value. For example, this web site will market your property all across the web. It will appear on Yahoo Real Estate, Microsoft MSN HomeAdvisor, and other top national sites. We can place your home on our web site within a few minutes time! We are currently averaging 400 hits a day! 

- When we begin marketing your home, we will immediately notify all the buyers that we are helping find their ideal home. We'll also notify all the real estate agents in this area that we work with, who quickly tell their homebuyers. It is a powerful way to jump-start the sale of your home! 

- You and a member of my team or I will walk through your home together. We will advise you how to present your property to maximize its selling price. Some improvements are worth it, and some are not! Be careful. 

- Contracts are complicated, and intimidating. You don't want to go to a closing with some doubts. You will have the full benefit of our real estate experience and knowledge for a smooth and successful closing. We recommend that you do not sign on any dotted lines without asking us first. 

- We will make sure you conform to any and all Florida statutory disclosure requirements. We will also inform you of any inspections that you should consider having done ahead of time to smooth the negotiating process with buyers, and to ensure a successful escrow and closing. 

You pay no up front costs for our services! So you can bet that we will work hard to get your home sold, for as much as this market will possibly bear.
We are currently offering our sellers an amazing deal! Sell your home in 49 days or our services are free. There are guidelines to qualify for this service, but if you sign up, we will waive our portion of the commission if we do not get you a contract within 49 days.
We will also work within your time frame and your needs. For example, sometimes it can be hard to sell and move out of your current home, and buy and move into a new home, all at the same time! We can help smooth this out. 

Call or email us. Ask for a free In-Home Presentation. We will come to your home or office, and present you a plan that details exactly how we will market your home. There is absolutely no obligation so don't let this opportunity pass. It is part of our job as top real estate agents to offer you this service.

• Say goodbye to every room.
• Don't look backwards -- look toward the future.

De-Clutter!  

People collect an amazing quantity of junk. Consider this: if you haven't used it in over a year, you probably don't need it.
1. If you don't need it, why not donate it or throw it away?
2. Remove all books from bookcases.
3. Pack up those knickknacks.
4. Clean off everything on kitchen counters.
5. Put essential items used daily in a small box that can be stored in a closet when not in use.
6. Think of this process as a head-start on the packing you will eventually need to do anyway.
7. Rearrange Bedroom Closets and Kitchen Cabinets.
Buyer love to SNOOP and will open closet and cabinet doors. Think of the message it sends if items fall out! Now imagine what a buyer believes about you if she sees everything organized. It says you probably take good care of the rest of the house as well. This means:
8. Alphabetize spice jars.
Neatly stack dishes.
9. Turn coffee cup handles facing the same way.
10. Hang shirts together, buttoned and facing the same direction.
11. Line up shoes.  


Rent a Storage Unit.  

Almost every home shows better with less furniture. Remove pieces of furniture that block or hamper paths and walkways and put them in storage. Since your bookcases are now empty, store them. Remove extra leaves from your dining room table to make the room appear larger. Leave just enough furniture in each room to showcase the room's purpose and plenty of room to move around. You don't want buyers scratching their heads and saying, "What is this room used for?"
Remove/Replace Favorite Items.
If you want to take window coverings, built-in appliances or fixtures with you, remove them now. If the chandelier in the dining room once belonged to your great grandmother, take it down. If a buyer never sees it, she won't want it. Once you tell a buyer she can't have an item, she will covet it, and it could blow your deal. Pack those items and replace them, if necessary.  


Do the Minor Repairs.  

1. Replace cracked floor or counter tiles.
2. Patch holes in walls.
3. Fix leaky faucets.
4. Fix doors that don't close properly and kitchen drawers that jam.
5. Consider painting your walls neutral colors, especially if you have grown accustomed to purple or pink walls.
(Don't give buyers any reason to remember your home as "the house with the orange bathroom.")
6. Replace burned-out light bulbs.
7. If you've considered replacing a worn bedspread, do so now!  


Make the House Sparkle!  

Wash windows inside and out.
8. Rent a pressure washer and spray down sidewalks and exterior.
9. Clean out cobwebs.
10. Re-caulk tubs, showers and sinks.
11. Polish chrome faucets and mirrors.
12. Clean out the refrigerator.
13. Vacuum daily.
14. Wax floors.
15. Dust furniture, ceiling fan blades and light fixtures.
16. Bleach dingy grout.
17. Replace worn rugs.
18. Hang up fresh towels.
19. Bathroom towels look great fastened with ribbon and bows.
20. Clean and air out any musty smelling areas. Odors are a no-no.  


Scrutinize.  

21. Linger in the doorway of every single room and imagine how your house will look to a buyer.
22. Examine carefully how furniture is arranged and move pieces around until it makes sense.
23. Make sure window coverings hang level.
24. Tune in to the room's statement and its emotional pull. Does it have impact and pizzazz?
25. Does it look like nobody lives in this house? You're almost finished.  


Check Curb Appeal.  

If a buyer won't get out of her agent's car because she doesn't like the exterior of your home, you'll never get her inside.
26. Keep the sidewalks cleared.
27. Mow the lawn.
28. Paint faded window trim.
29. Plant yellow flowers or group flower pots together. Yellow evokes a buying emotion. Marigolds are inexpensive.
30. Trim your bushes.
31. Make sure visitors can clearly read your house number

Real Estate Tips
Accepting An Offer >Responding to Low Offers

The beginning of negotiations is usually the end of many months of hard work for the buyer or seller. The work ahead requires skill in order to maintain a strong position.

Sellers can lose their advantage if they do not counter an offer that a buyer has made. Even if the opening offer is beneath what the seller feels is reasonable, it is advisable for the seller to respond with a slight reduction from the asking price. The most important component in negotiating is good communication.

The best way to handle a low offer is to counter it with definite terms that are favorable to the seller. A counter offer has two advantages: 1) it keeps the buyer interested, and 2) it moves the negotiation forward and gives the buyer the opportunity to submit another offer that the seller is more likely to prefer.
