Strategically placing your family's sales price of your home with agents who are selling the same price homes so that your home and family gets the attention it deserves. Strategically placing your family's sales price of your home with agents who are selling the same price homes so that your home and family gets the attention it deserves.
Too many agents and too many companies are allowing agents to be over listed. Here's our example:

Would you agree with our answer to this question? If your home was priced at $100,000, an over listed agent has 55 listings, some agents have had over 60 listings at the same time for sale and going to settlement.

This real estate agent could have several appointments with new clients each week, new listing appointments. This is sometimes the only time the sellers will see this over listed agent prior to settlement. Your agent needs to show up for your family on many meetings that it will require to move the sell of your home to settlement. When your agent delegates this responsibility to someone else and does not personally handle each detail, it shows your family the importance of his time. The other company’s agent will notice it as well.  It is to your family’s advantage to have your listing agent attend as many meetings and to make as many calls for your family as your agents time allows. This time factor is what Dr. Oliverio’s Master Plan for Real Estate Excellance is all about.

The agent will also have to meet with mortgage bankers.

The agent will also have to meet processors for the mortgage companies. Mortgage processors are the strength of the mortgage business. When your agent takes the time to meet them, your family’s file becomes much more than one of the hundreds that they are working. Your family’s file becomes one that has been given attention to, and the mortgage processors appreciate a better effort from the real estate agent to assist in bringing in all the required information as your family moves closer to settlement.

The agent will also have to meet the settlement offices. The settlement agents and paralegals are the strength of the Attorney’s offices and settlement companies. When your agent takes the time to meet them, your family’s file becomes much more than one of the hundreds that they are working. Your family’s file becomes one that has been given attention to detail, and the settlement agents and paralegals appreciate a better effort from the real estate agent to assist in bringing in all the required information as your family moves closer to settlement.

The agent will also have to meet appraisers. If the agent has the time, the appraiser should always be met at the seller’s home. The agent should recommend what appraiser he prefers to the mortgage company. The appraisal check should be made out to the real estate company not the mortgage company. The reason is, once it is made out to the mortgage company, the agent loses control, it then becomes the right of the mortgage company to select the appraiser. There are many appraisers that are good and many that are bad. If from an agents experience he knows the good ones, the ones that show up on time and finish their work when they say it will be finished. The appraisers who will take the time to search comparables   of homes that have sold that will be fair to the seller and to the buyer. Once an agent takes this time, recommends the appraiser, all copies of appraisal information will then be sent to the real estate company, the agent should have the time to review any problems and then send copies to the purchaser who most of the time pays for this appraisal service. The agent that has the time can control this part of the sale and move the sale faster to settlement. The appraisal will always remember the agent who took the time to recommend him, the agent that  is referring their good work during markets that may be slower, with fewer buyers and more sellers. These agents’ efforts will benefit the buyer down the road when the market changes and the refinance market increases. Real estate agents are often called first when refinancing their mortgage, getting advice on what mortgage company to use for this transaction. The appraiser could be very busy with hundreds of refinanced homes now all waiting to get appraised. When your agent calls the same appraiser that you used during the slow market days, your file will be on the top to be appraised. Your family will appreciate the appraisers effort all because your real estate agent took the time to recommend this good appraiser. Our tenth degree qualified agent have the time for you.

The agent will also have to meet home inspectors.

 The agent will also have to meet county regulators.

 The agent must take time to write his real estate ads,

The agent must return the ad calls each week.

The agent must read carefully several 10 page contracts, addendums and surveys.

The agent must meet with each family to have the contracts ratified.

The agent must fax and verify with a personal phone call that the fax was received. Each personal phone call from your agent to the other real estate company shows the importance of your family’s sale. The effort is noticed from other agents. Other real estate agents may want to continue to work with an agent who personally handles details instead of delegating your family’s call to someone else. This effort often weighs heavily in a positive manner to the other agents who may want to write a contract on your family’s home instead of the agent who delegates.

The agent must have the time to meet for counter contracts and ratification of home inspection reports, as well as walk through details that should handled by the listing agent. 

Some agents may have over 500+ phone calls, emails, and voice mails to return each week. These important return calls should be made by the agent to those same business professionals that move each transaction from a sale to settlement. The agent should return personally each call for the families of each listing the agent is working. Understanding that the higher the sales price home, usually the higher the pay is for the work the agent must do to go to settlement. Which call do you think the agent is going to return first?
