Video Series: What Should Sellers Ask Their Agents?
Welcome back to Crye-Leike Insights! We are here to share tips, stories, and wisdom from our Crye-Leike family. Sitting down with a listing agent for the first time can feel a little overwhelming. Tracy Kirkley from our Olive Branch office shared with us what she believes are the 3 most important questions you should ask your potential agent.
How are you going to market my home?
Marketing is very important when it comes to selling a home. Ask your agent what is included in their marketing plan. Crye-Leike's full service marketing department provides the advantage you need in this competitive real estate market.
What's your track record over the last 12 months?
How many homes did you sell? How did that compare to the market average for agents? How quickly do your home sell? And how close do you get to the list price with a sales price? All of these points will help you get a better idea of what your agents has done for clients in the past.
How much do you think I'm going to make out of the sale of my house?
Now notice we didn't say "How much are you going to list my home for?" So many factors contribute to deciding the list price of a home. When it comes to pricing, you do need to know what they think your home is going to realistically sell for, as well as how they came up with that price.
Good Luck!

Video Series: When Should You Lower the Price of Your Home?
Welcome back to Crye-Leike Insights! We are here to share tips, stories, and wisdom from our Crye-Leike family. In this week's episode, Carol Lott from The Lott Team is here to share a few tips on when to lower the price of your home.
Congratulations! Your home is on the market and you are ready to sell. When you put your home on the market, you expect to sell your home quickly! But, if offers don't start coming in like you expect, you might want to consider lowering the price of your home.
Listen to the Feedback
If potential buyers are coming to see your house, but leave saying "this house is too small," it might be time to lower the price of your home.
The 10 Day Rule
If your home has been on the market for more than 10 day without any offers, this would be a good time to think about lowering the price.
Your Motivation
How strong is your motivation to sell your home? If you are not in any rush, you can wait a little longer before reducing the price. If you have accepted a new job out of the area and you need to move soon, lowering the price of you home can help it sell quickly.

Getting a Counter Offer
It's highly unlikely that the sellers will accept your offer as it's originally written. Sellers use counter offers to fine-tune the price, terms, and conditions of offers they receive.
Suppose, for example, that you offer $175,000 for a home that you like and you ask to close 30 days after the sellers accept your offer. Because they had the house listed at $189,500, the sellers think that your offering price is a mite low. Furthermore, they need six weeks to relocate.
Instead of rewriting your entire offer, they give you a counteroffer. It states that they're willing to accept all the terms and conditions of your offer except that they want $185,000 and six weeks after acceptance to close.
You don't mind a six-week closing, but you don't want to pay more than $180,000, so you give the sellers a counter-counter offer to that effect.
