Does Pricing Matter?
Search the Internet right now in any price range and then ask yourself, are you expecting to see every home in your price range? Of course you do, why else would you be searching? So why is it that many marketing geniuses are still pricing homes for example at $299,900? Let’s run a quick scenario. You are a buyer looking from 300K to 400K. You use the search engine pull down menu on any major real estate website and pull 300K to 400K. Do you think to then look at 250K to 300K to see what is priced at $299,900? No probably not. So the agent of the sellers who have priced these homes to attract buyers at the 300K range have skipped those buyers all together even though they sold the idea to the seller that this would be the best marketing for them as their marketing expert.

Good News!
Is It Legal For Us To Pay You?
Read the Department of Justice’s opinion of the Buyer Cash At Closing program and how it effects buyers:
Duffy Realty Now has a Premier Division
Two agents from Sothebys have joined Duffy Realty to offer our clients a higher level of service. They have a very specific game plan and offer coaching and strategy sessions by phone after the initial visit every 2 weeks until your property is sold. We are using technology that is efficient to provide constant communication between you and them. There is more marketing involved, follow-up with showings and more attention is placed on your individual specifics. You should not use this program if you are unsure about selling your property.
The fee is 5.25% at closing with 3% of that going towards a buyer’s agent. At closing we will also return the money that you have spent upfront.
If you have a need and desire to have more specific attention to be put on your property, please call Customer Support at 678-366-3791 to get your property transferred to Duffy Realty’s Premier Marketing Strategy.
