Selling Real Estate in Los Angeles
Selling real estate, especially your home, is a major decision, and the goal is not only to maximize the amount of money you will get, but to make a deal with the best terms, and to have a smooth transaction, which does not fall through.
We have bought and sold many properties both for ourselves and clients, and we are attorneys and investors. We have a keen understanding of how to maximize price and advocate for the best terms, to achieve the best outcome. There are so many aspects to the home sale process- far more than simply listing the house on the MLS, and sitting back and waiting. And having an agent who understands how to maximize the price of a property is of paramount importance. Luckily, our clients get the advantages of next level, attorney backed representation*, as follows:
Advantage #1: Lawyer level negotiating skills and understanding of contracts.
*Knows laws of real property, real estate transactions, and contracts;
*Knows how to have a soft touch when called for, and the opposite when called for. Knows how to respond to laggers, sweet-talkers, hard-ballers, hiders-of-the-ball, and everything in between;
*Knows intuitively, regardless of high pressure/high stakes, how to most effectively advocate for, and tenaciously pursue a client’s goals, to get deals done in the best interest of the client- no matter what.
In any deal involving us, the client will be zealously advocated for, and will be, and most importantly, will feel, taken care of.*
Advantage #2: We know how to fix up and improve your property prior to sale. And we do it as part of our standard service.**
As investors and rental property managers, we have crews of tradespeople, from handymen to electricians to landscapers to builders, and everything in between- and we know how to leverage these relationships to do necessary work on your property for a low cost, in order to get a much higher sales price in the end. We even have financing options, so clients may be able to pay for the work after the property sells.**
Work we do includes but is not limited to Painting/touch up; Landscaping/planting (we have many hacks for this); fixing floors; selectively installing new fixtures such as lights, cabinet pulls, and faucets; freshening up kitchens or bathrooms (This can often be done for surprisingly low cost), among other things.
The list of prep work involved in selling a house goes on, from improvements, to pre-inspections, to pre-disclosures. So many of the most important things to do prior to sale are relatively inexpensive, but garner huge results. Here at BTRE, we pride ourselves on knowing how to spend $5000 on the front end, to generate six figures for you, on the back end.** We also supervise all our work and workers personally, to make sure all work is done properly. All of this is done at no extra cost to you, We still charge the same as other agents– but give next level service. Selling with BTRE is truly a no brainer.
Advantage #3 Professional Staging, decorating, and photography:
Advantage #4: Marketing beyond the Local MLS:
Many real estate agents simply put properties on the MLS and that is their marketing strategy. This means that the only people seeing them are people specifically looking for homes right in their area, right at the time of the listing. Here at BTRE, we are well connected to nationwide networks of real estate investors and buyers through groups, forums and other private message boards, and thus, we can cast a far wider net with our listings than the usual local agents, and can attract potential buyers from outside the usual buyer pool.
*: Clients of BTRE are not law firm clients; BTRE acts as a Realtor for clients, and the relationship between BTRE and clients is a Realtor-Client relationship, not an Attorney-Client relationship.
**: Not all properties or sellers will qualify for extra services or any other work on home prior to selling. All such arrangements will need to be agreed to between BTRE and the client. Outcomes of such services or improvements are not guaranteed. Each transaction and property is different.
