Q:Are your fees negotiable?

A:My commission is 6%, which would be split evenly between myself and the broker that brings us the buyer.

Q:What if you - or your office - represents the buyer?

A:Most likely, someone in my office will sell your home, we sell more homes in Laurelhurst than any other office. The selling broker would expect to be paid a 3% commission as they would get that on any other property. If we offer a lower commission, I feel it works against you-you need to be competitive.

I frequently sell my listings, and when I do I get the full listing and selling side commission. If you are not comfortable with me handling both sides of the transaction, that is fine, I can just represent you.

Q: What about staging fees and photograph/video fees?

A: I always pay for all photography, video, advertising & promotional costs. I also am willing to pay Eduardo’s initial move-in/move-out & design fee. You would be responsible for any art and additional furniture that he brings in (if needed, I don’t think as stated earlier you need much, mostly editing and some fabulous outdoor furniture) and the ongoing monthly rental fees for art and furniture going forward.

Q:How long must I list my house with you?

I generally take listings for a minimum of 6 months to one year depending on the price-point. What I will tell you is that I intend for my clients to be so thrilled with my work, that they will write a fabulous review on Zillow for me ~ so, I make sure that I earn their trust and full confidence.

Q: Please provide the documents we will have to sign?

A: OK.

Q:Please estimate (ball park) closing costs?

A: Closing costs generally run between 8-10% of the sales price. I have included an estimated net proceeds for you in my CMA.
