Don't Limit Your Property's Exposure!

Print ads are not the answer to selling your property!  Your REALTOR should employ a wide variety of marketing techniques and have a pro-active marketing system.  Your REALTOR should also be committed to selling your property and have systems in place that expose your property to as many potential buyers as possible. 
 
I've been selling Door County real estate for 28 years.  Over the years I've developed systems that pro-actively market my property listings.  If you're thinking about selling your Door County property, I'd love to help you.

Know Your Rights & Responsibilities

It is extremely important that you are well-informed of the details in your real estate contract.  Real estate contract are legally binding documents, and they can often be complex and confusing.  Not being aware of the terms in your contract could cost you thousands for repairs and inspections.  Know what you are responsible for before signing the contract.  Can the property be sold “as is”?  How will deed restrictions and local zoning laws affect your transaction?  Not knowing the answers to these kinds of questions could end up costing you a considerable amount of money.

Trying to Sell to “Looky-Loos”

A prospective buyer who shows interest because of a “for sale” sign he saw may not really be interested in your property.  Often buyers who do not come through a REALTOR may be years away from buying, and they are more interested in seeing what is out there than actually making a purchase.  They may still have to sell their property, or may not be able afford a property yet.  They may still even be unsure as to whether or not they want to make a property investment.

Your REALTOR should be able to distinguish realistic potential buyers from mere lookers.  REALTORS should usually find out a prospective buyer’s purchasing power.  This will help you avoid wasting valuable time marketing to the wrong people.

Don't “Hard Sell” While Showing

Buying a property is always an emotional and difficult decision.  As a result, you should try to allow prospective buyers to comfortably examine your property.  Don’t try haggling or forcefully selling.  Instead, be friendly and hospitable.  A good idea would be to point out any subtle amenities and be receptive to questions.  An even better idea is to NOT be present when a showing occurs.

WHITEFISH DUNES STATE PARK

In 1967 the State of Wisconsin established Whitefish Dunes State Park.  The park is a day use park that consists of 865 acres.  The sand beach is the best in Door County!  Bob and I especially enjoy walks along the beach…it’s “ocean-like” and seem to be endless.  You can also enjoy miles of fabulous hiking and cross country ski trails.   I recommend hiking the trail to “Old Baldy” and checking out the panoramic view!  SEE DETAILS ON WHITEFISH DUNES STATE PARK HERE!
