Understand the experience before changing the plan.
An expired listing can leave you with more questions than answers. Start with your goals and the information available from the previous listing, without assuming that any single factor explains the outcome.
Review the evidence
Bring the previous description, photographs, price history and available feedback. Discuss what buyers could see and the response the property received.
Look at today’s competition
Compare the home with relevant properties now on the market and recent sales. The choices buyers have may have changed since the original launch.
Decide what would be different
Identify the changes worth considering in preparation, pricing, presentation or timing. A relaunch should have a clear reason behind it.
Useful for a first conversation.
- Your current goals and preferred timing
- Previous listing materials and available feedback
- Any changes to the home or selling plans
- Questions about current representation to resolve before proceeding
Common questions.
Can we talk if another agreement may still apply?
Tell Eddy about any existing representation before discussing a new listing arrangement. Questions about that agreement should be resolved with the appropriate professional.
Will a new listing guarantee a sale?
No. A new approach should be grounded in the property, pricing, market conditions and your goals. A result or sale timeline cannot be guaranteed.
