Finding the Right Agent to Sell Your Home Fast

There are numerous options for people to sell their homes quickly, but not all of them are economical, quick, efficient, or enjoyable. Selling your property, especially your family home, is regarded as one of the most stressful events in a person’s life because it involves such a major change and upheaval in the person’s regular day-to-day activities, not to mention the sentimental value that comes with leaving behind the memories you may have made there.

Therefore, finding the right estate agent to help you sell your property quickly can make all the difference to the entire procedure. When you invite a RE/MAX associate to view your property in Malta with the intention of listing it for sale within the extremely vast RE/MAX portfolio, you are taking the first step towards a smoother transitional experience, from day one.

Evaluating your property for sale

RE/MAX sales associates, especially are fully trained in identifying the key selling factors in every property they view, no matter how small, large, dilapidated or refined. By talking to you and asking specifically targeted questions whilst viewing the property alongside you, the associate will be able to qualify your needs and guide you with a plan of action on how to value your property and market it so as to make it more visible to potential buyers. 

A RE/MAX associate will take location, price and other properties that have been sold as well as listed within the same area in consideration. Special unique characteristics that make your home stand out from the rest will be noted and evaluated.

One must take into consideration that a real estate agent must look at your property from a professional aspect whilst at this stage a homeowner is often putting a price on the emotional factors that go with leaving behind a lifetime of memories.

The RE/MAX associate

A RE/MAX associate specialises in geographical areas and types of property in Malta or Gozo so that they may focus on understanding the knowledge of a specific market and provide informed guidance. It is understandable to say, “Who does this real estate agent think he is?”, “Who is he/she to put a price on my property?”, But in reality, if the estate agent merely lists your property without asking pertinent questions and does not provide his professional opinion, that should be your cue to ask him/her to leave.

Whilst the property is being listed, the associate will discuss strategy and tips with you so to highlight the most unique aspects of the property. Every home has its very own and unique identifying strong points, but often home owners overlook simple ways they could easily adopt to optimise the value of their property. A RE/MAX associate will help you elevate the property’s standard by providing tips on how to improve its general appearance and how to provide a positive first impression to would-be buyers.

Exclusive Listing Programme 

Selling your property exclusively with Exclusive by RE/MAX has many benefits. RE/MAX is the only company in Malta that provides a fully-fledged selling service, which is dedicated to homeowners who are motivated to stage a house for sale quickly. This unique package offers a myriad of marketing benefits including staging and 3D imaging, services the company pioneered in just over three years.

The programme is an agreement which regulates the relationship between vendor and agency and provides RE/MAX Exclusive rights to selling your home. 80% of the homes that are listed in the Exclusive by RE/MAX programme are selling in less than 90 days.

Staging & 3D imaging

Minor cosmetic changes can help stage a property in a big way and the insight of an expert RE/MAX associate can quickly guide you, the seller, in the right direction. Owners whose property can be significantly improved in such a way as to impact strongly on the final market value will be encouraged to make subtle changes so as to show off the property at its very best. 

Simple basic things such as spring cleaning, changing curtains, moving furniture around and de-cluttering, are the first steps which are generally recommended. 

Depending on your agreement, the associate will organise a staging procedure, which is included in the Exclusive Listing programme and has proven to be extremely effective. When a property is professionally staged, it can be lifted up a notch or two and attracts more buyers to your door. 

Another proven method for selling a property is 3D imaging. This procedure is undertaken when a property is not finished or still on plan. RE/MAX will take on the property and bring it to life through digital images. Read more about our Virtual Reality Technology.  

Asking questions to the agent

Every seller has many questions to ask – Is the price right? How far should I negotiate? What tax implications should I consider? How soon can a contract be signed? A RE/MAX associate will be able to answer all these questions and more. 

He or she will assist you by making sure to research not only the best way to market the property but also find potential buyers, fit viewing appointments around your schedule, accompany viewers around the property, advise you on pertinent legal arrangements, guide negotiations, oversee transactions and contractual details, as well as provide practical guidelines linked to the eventual moving of your personal belongings.
