Benefits of Listing with Meggi

The high energy, positive approach that Meggi can bring has countless potential benefits. Some of the advantages that a Seller would enjoy through a commitment to this dynamic team would include:

A clear definition of the target market
  • Insight into the goals and needs of that target market.
  • Set up of the initial tour of the subject property, financial options, legal advice, and just someone they can talk to when things get a little overwhelming
  • A significantly broader market reach through several vehicles, including the Multiple Listing Services (MLS) network, and immediate exposure on more than six web sites. Professional photography and staging for every marketed property.
  • Well developed “people skills,” combined with patience and an upbeat, well informed attitude, ensuring a positive initial impression and maintenance of the client’s goodwill through all phases of the purchase process and beyond
  • Continuity of service, creating a fluidity in the process for the clients.
  • Since renumeration is based on performance no sales means no pay.
  • Representation by a reachable, respectful, dedicated professional that is committed to the Seller and to the client’s long term satisfaction. Meggi’s team has repeatedly discovered this is the backbone to continued growth and success.

A comparative market analysis is prepared by Meggi. It compares the market activity of homes similar to yours in your neighborhood. Those that have recently sold represent what buyers are willing to pay. The homes currently listed for sale represent the price sellers hope to obtain. And those listings that have expired were generally overpriced or poorly marketed.

Together we will establish the proper list price for your home.

For many of us our home is our largest asset. Determining the right asking price for your property is very important.

Once you've achieved a realistic sales price, you can expect to sell your home for the best possible price in the least amount of time.

  • *Your property sells faster, because it is exposed to more qualified buyers.
  • *Your home doesn't lose its "marketability."
  • *Our marketing efforts can generate competing offers.
  • *Other Realtors will be enthusiastic about presenting your property to buyers.

To maximize salability ensure that your new décor is modern and tasteful. Choose neutral shades. Steer away from too many personal touches if you plan to re-sell.

The kitchen and bathroom are key areas to focus your renovation attentions. With average paybacks of 72 and 68 percent respectively, new fixtures, cabinets & tiles could be well worth the money, time and effort. Here are top ten renovations and the average rate of return:

  • Interior painting and décor - 73%
  • Kitchen renovation - 72%
  • Bathroom renovation - 68%
  • Exterior paint - 65%
  • Flooring upgrades - 62%
  • Window/door replacement - 57%
  • Main floor family room addition - 51%
  • Fireplace addition - 50%
  • Basement renovation - 49%
  • Furnace/heating system replacement - 48%
Happy Renovating!
