The Chaska herald artlicle today showcases a listing i put on the market last Sunday. The home is located in the Traditions of Clover Ridge development and is an absolutley fantastic home.

Like the article says we are employing the use of technology to help get the word out to buyers on a variety of the new communication channels – Facebook, twitter and a host of non-mls sites that syndicate MLS listings. 

My marketing plan focuses on getting the home ready to showcase to buyers that are looking online (which by the way is where 90+% of serious buyers are finding homes) .  The first step for my clients is a consultation with a professional stager.  The stager will come in and provide 2 hours of hands on service paid for by me.  I’ve been using professional staging for the past 4 years and believe it has been a big contributor to the sale of the home.  After the home has implemented the stagers advice on furniture arrangement, decluttering and accessories we bring in a professional photographer.  Wide angle photography when shot by a pro makes a huge difference from a standard digital camera (which in a recent sampling I found 60% of agents are still using a regular digital camera to shoot their listings).  I  keep up with the latest advances in technology and am always up to date with the trends in the market itself.

As a trusted Chaska Realtor to many homeowners in the area i’m happy to go over this report for you. 

What is the value of your home? Fill out the form below and I’ll do a market analysis to determine what the best market price would be by comparing the latest sales data against like properties that have sold in the last 90 days.

How do I determine values?

I take a 3 step aproach when determining the value of your home.

1. I compare homes within a 1/4 mile radius of your home just as a professional real estate appraiser would do to find the homes that best match up with the features of your home
2. I compare city wide solds and look for value trends in different areas of the city to determine pricing trends in all areas and how it relates to your home.
3. I check the most recent sales history of your home and apply statistical data for the twin cities market as a whole and also the city wide trends to determine the average increase or decrease in home values

My selling clients have the option to come with me while I preview homes for sale in the Chaska area to see first hand how their home stacks up.

To determine what cities are smart buys, Forbes magazine computed the premium and also identified locales where economists predict home prices will go up the most over the next five years.

Here are the top 10 cities the magazine chose as the best places to buy right now. (hint: Minneapolis is on the list!)

Listings are provided by broker reciprosity commonly referred to by the public as MLS.
