Homes Sold for More™

Selling a Home in Grand Junction with a Homes Sold for More™ Agent!

If you’ve been reading my Move to Grand Junction blog posts, you know that they are mostly about moving here and living in Grand Junction. But did you know I also list homes for sale in Grand Junction? In fact, I have a dedicated website for Grand Junction Home Sellers called Homes Sold for More™.

What is Homes Sold for More™?

Homes Sold for More™ is a listing process I created over the last 25 years that positions the sellers I work with to get MORE! More communication, more convenience, more pre-planning, more home staging, more services, and more expertise.

Traditional “Just Listed” tactics are outdated and ineffective. In fact, after moving to Grand Junction, I quickly realized that the listing preparation and marketing tactics used by even the top agents in the Grand Valley are 15+ years behind what agents are doing in the major metropolitan areas. I show my clients how their home can stand out from the competition!

Avoid These “Just Listed” Mistakes When Selling Your Grand Junction Home

For a comprehensive list of “Just Listed” pitfalls to avoid visit HomesSoldForMore.com. Find out more about my process and how the Sold for More™ team stands by the fact that “We Do Real Estate Right!” Some of the pitfalls to avoid are quite entertaining! Learn about showing feedback, radon testing, price reductions, photography, what color to paint your home, secure lockboxes vs combo lockboxes, professional brochures, and no open houses!

In this real estate market, a vast majority of people will be selling a home before buying their next one. Unfortunately, contingent offers are not the answer to avoiding a double move (see my article on contingent offers).

Whether you are selling a home in Grand Junction or relocating here with a home to sell out of state, here are five quick tips for seller success.

Five Tips for Seller Success

  1. Hire an experienced locally based agent that understands how to help guide you in preparing a home to be listed. This includes professional staging, color consultation, decluttering, and pre-packing. Best to follow the phrase “The way you live in a home is different than the way you sell a home.”
  2. It’s better to go on the market when you’re ready than just fast. If your agent is pushing to get your home listed ASAP, they view your home as another “Just Listed” commodity and don’t fully understand how to take advantage of the first impression period.
  3. Photographs need to speak to buyers! Even though the latest smartphone has great clarity, the quality of a photo comes from the talent of the photographer. Great pictures speak a thousand words, don’t settle for less than the best. Always hire a professional.
  4. Don’t allow your agent to ignore virtual staging if you plan to sell your home vacant. The average person has a challenging time visualizing the layout of furniture in rooms. Virtual staging is your friend when selling a vacant home.
  5. Collaborate with your agent on pricing! Work together to come up with the best price based on the facts of what is selling in your area, not emotion or what you think it could sell for.

He is incredibly knowledgeable about the market and brings a level of experience and professionalism that immediately puts you at ease. He’s organized, hardworking, and always quick to respond — which made a stressful process feel much more manageable.

Most importantly, Paul genuinely cares about his clients and the outcome. You can tell he’s fully invested and working hard on your behalf. We felt very lucky to have him guiding us through the sale and would recommend him without hesitation.”
