Home Value 

We here at www.DerrickMonroe.com and The Derrick Monroe Group take our business serious and we offer a free home appraisal to establish your house value. For many of us our home is our biggest investment and should not be taken lightly when selling, after all the equity you have is important. When selling ask yourself some important questions;

  • What is the reason to move?
  • What are my expectations?
  • What is my timeline?
  • If I could picture the best start to finish (list to sold) what would it look like?
  • What would I like to see from a Real Estate Agent?
  • What's my house value?

Ask your self these questions and write down the answers. Make sure you have your needs in mind when you call a real estate agent. If the agent you call does not ask you similar questions to make sure they are looking at "YOUR" needs and not just theirs, call another agent! A good agent understands it's not about placing signs all over town; it's about the needs of you and your equity. After all the agent did not sacrifice for the home and equity, you did. Find someone that understands that.

Questions To Ask Every Agent You Interview

  • How long have you been in the business? (look for experience)
  • How many homes have you sold in my area? (look for area knowledge)
  • What is your average sales price vs. listing price on your listings? (you want their average home to sell for close to asking price, this will give you a clear picture of their sales ability)
  • Do you have a full time assistant? (look for someone with staff otherwise you may be getting someone to busy and may get overwhelmed easily)
  • Do you work from an office open during normal business hours? (you want a full service office)
  • Do you offer clients in house mortgage & title services? (It's always better to deal with a full service company)
  • How long are your listings normally on the market before they sell? (Compare this to other area homes)
  • What will you do to sell my home? (i.e. marketing plan, internet, networking etc)
  • Why should I hire you? (This is key!)
  • What's my house worth? And ask to see how they came to that price.
  • What is your marketing plan to sell my property?

Ask these questions of the real estate agent's you interview for your home sale. All REALTOR'S® are not created equal and some are great at "sales pitches" but have nothing to back it, these questions will flush out the part timers from the experienced full time real estate agents who take your sale serious. We offer a free home evaluation in all suburbs and surrounding communities of the Twin Cities. To see your house value contact us today for a free home evaluation.

All agents are the same, right? NO. The Board Of REALTORS® have stated that 90% of the real estate sold is sold by 10% of the agents, some would argue that number is more like 95% is sold by 5% of the agents. That number alone shows something is different, but what? Well most agents licensed in Minnesota are part time; do you want a part time agent selling your home? Some agents simply rely on a for sale sign and the MLS, did you also know that many agents in Minnesota are not even REALTORS®? You see the term REALTOR® is a copyright that is only assigned to agents who belong to the board and take a oath in committing to rules and regulations that are used as a guideline to honesty, awareness of laws, loyalty & commitment to clients and agree to use the MLS as a tool to market to the public and other Minnesota real estate agent's.

How the term REALTOR® started.   REALTOR® Code Of Ethics.   Why use a REALTOR®?
