Our Home Selling Process
It can feel like the details are endless when you're selling a property. It is my job to streamline the process for you, ensuring every thing is completed as quickly and efficiently as possible. Here's an overview of the steps we'll be taking along the way.
Keeping you Informed and Creating Results.
We block time on Thursdays and Fridays of each each week to update our clients about the marketing on their home that week, the response rate, what’s planned for the next week, feedback from agents who showed their home, and market conditions that might affect their sale. This is also a great time for sellers to ask us questions. Whether you prefer a phone call or an email, that's what you'll get.
Prepare your home for a successful sale.
We will assist you in preparing your home for staging. We will help you to create a spacious feeling and make sure your home has the curb appeal it deserves. We know you want to increase the value of your home, and we will work together to assess your unique situation.
Home staging is the very best proven way to get top dollar for your home as you prepare it for sale. This is because staging sets the scene throughout the house to create immediate buyer interest in your property. This well then lead to your home selling for the highest possible price in today’s market.
Staging is a few things. It is intelligent merchandising. It is uncovering everything a house has to offer by depersonalizing it. This can mean anything from landscaping sprucing to simply removing knickknacks from shelves and counters.
A home in superior condition will sell faster and for more money than a home in average condition with a lower asking price!
Award Winning Photography
We have a professional photographer shoot the photographs for all of our listings. This allows us the opportunity to take great shots of the home for use in our professionally prepared brochures and to prepare our Virtual Tours for all of our online marketing efforts.
Detailed Color Brochures
Brochures in the home are professionally prepared with color photos of the property, listing features and benefits, survey and floor plan. It generally takes about three days after we receive the photos from the photographer to have the brochures done.
Enter You into the Multiple Listing Service
We enter all listings into the MLS on Thursday so you can be ready for showings on the weekend. It takes 2-3 days from the Photography Session to upload the 20-25 photographs and write the copy. The multiple listing service only allows 1000 characters so we want to focus on the bests features of the your home!
Open Houses – Open 24 Hours a Day/7Days a Week
We feature your home on the Internet 24 hours a day/7 Days a week! Some homes are better candidates for Open Houses than others…it really depends on the location. Keep in mind that less than 1% of homes sell because of an Open House, so we focus the bulk of our marketing efforts on proactive ways to get YOUR home sold!
Web Presence – Widespread Internet Exposure with Key Local Focus
All of our listings are advertised on the Internet, through hundreds of web sites and search engines. Why is this important? 90% of buyers begin their search on the Internet, and 35% of the home buyers find the home they purchase on the Internet themselves. Our extensive web presence ensures our clients receive more exposure for their home’s listing than possible with any other real estate agent in the area.
Bottom Line – Our Listings have more traffic due to the Quality of the Photographs and Virtual Tour!
Showings and Feedback
We will counsel you on the most effective strategies for showings based on your needs and schedule. Regarding obtaining feedback, we do ask specific questions in our survey that is emailed to all showing agents about our price, condition of the home, and most importantly, is the buyer going to make an offer? You’ll receive the feedback at the same time we do. This is a partnership and we want to you informed!
Communication and Updates
In addition to giving you feedback on showings, we send you other informative marketing reports weekly. We also update you on your competition; new listings, price reductions and homes that have gone under contract in your area.
Contract to Close
All buyer‘s will be prequalified so valuable time isn’t wasted, all offers reviewed and evaluated with you. Once you are under contract, all of the details will be handled for you.
Testimonials

I don't even know where to begin. Lisa was completely invaluable to us with negotiating with the builder, staying on top of the busy new construction schedule, looking at every square inch of the house throughout all of the walk throughs... whew. She even caught a tiny crack on our driveway and had the builder fix it before it could become a big problem, I didn't even know to look! She'll be on top of you like a momma bear and she will always give you the best advice. If you want a genuine advocate on your side, you want Lisa Quin. Not only is she an amazing, knowledgeable realtor, she has one of the kindest hearts out there!

We cannot thank Lisa and her team enough for all their help and guidance throughout our home buying and selling process. This is the second time we have worked with Lisa and we have had a wonderful experience each time. She did a tremendous job answering all our questions and consulting us from start to finish. THANK YOU, LISA!

Working with Lisa was amazing! As first time home buyers she made the experience for us as smooth and easy as possible which helped making the whole process less stressful. She is an absolute pro, very knowledgeable of the Cary/Apex area and knows how to win an offer. Everything she told us about the market turned out to be true. Her communication throughout the process was great. She is very patient but also knows when it’s time to act. Lisa and her team did a tremendous job guiding us through the whole home buying process, answering all of our questions and setting realistic timelines and expectations. We absolutely loved working with Lisa! If you are looking for a realtor who can not only find you your dream home but also knows how to win with multiple offers on the table, Lisa is your person.

My wife and I have purchased eight homes in the past fifty years of marriage. And Lisa Quin is the best realtor we have ever had. She is very knowledgeable about real estate and provides professional guidance. She also excels in one area that is very important to me. As busy as she may be, she always responds very quickly to my calls and texts. It really makes a person feel important...go figure! Lisa is very caring and considerate about the pressures of trying to make the right decision in buying a house. She also has an excellent Administrative Assistant, Stefanie, who really went beyond expectations with working out the details to the purchase and the move. If we need to sell our house some time in the future, Lisa will be the only realtor we will call.

My fiance and I couldn't imagine experiencing the home buying process without Lisa. She was professional, kind, and made navigating the HECTIC market a stress free process. She has certainly made customers for life out of us and we cannot recommend her services enough!

Lisa and her team have been an absolute pleasure to work with as I have purchased a new home and listed another. They have been excellent communicators and completely transparent throughout two intricate processes. They have made both experiences seamless. Most important, Lisa and her team are warm and considerate. I cannot recommend them enough!

Lisa is hands down the BEST realtor in the triangle. She sold my first home for over the asking price and then helped us find the perfect new home! Years later she helped us sell that home. Lisa goes above and beyond and makes what could be a stressful experience, easy and painless. She knows her business well and trusting her will be the best decision you make when selling or buying a new home. I would give her 10 stars if I could!

Simply AMAZING! Lisa was first class from the moment we met her. She’s an exceptional Realtor with a great network and work ethic. Should any “challenges” arise (and we encounter plenty) then Lisa is the person to resolve them. We simply couldn’t be happier.

We have used Lisa to sell and buy our last 3 homes. She is great to work with, she goes out of her way to meet our needs. We are difficult buyers and she always delivers. She is responsive at all hours and days. She knows the market and how to get the right price on both the sale and the purchase. She is super patient with us, at times where I would not be. She is a true professional.

My husband and I relocated to North Carolina and were not even sure where to start looking for our home. Lisa was extremely knowledgeable of the area. We discussed with her what we wanted and even with a small window she had a lot of great options lined up for us. She was extremely patient with us, honest and accommodating. We would highly recommend Lisa for anyone looking to sell or buy a home. We could not have asked for a better realtor to help us through buying our first family home!
