The Andy Alger Team
Five Step Marketing Strategy

Package for Profit
Packaging a home for profit increases BUYER APPEAL and VALUE. Results are a home SOLD faster!
We will:
- Leverage the 4 key buyer “hot spots” in order to capture their hearts and best offers.
- Put into action our proven strategies for effective Buyer Showings and Open Houses.
- Make your home stand out above the competition with professional staging and photography.
- Increase the chance of selling your home for 3% more and selling 23 days faster by offering a seller provided Home Warranty.
What This Means For You:
MORE Buyer excitement, MORE showings, MORE offers and a greater sale price!

Best List Price
Pricing is trickier than it appears and is a true balancing act.
We will:
- Show you the “Macro” Market trend, giving you an accurate overview of where the overall market is and more importantly where it is going.
- Give you a detailed picture of what the “Micro” Market may be saying about homes similar to yours. This data can be very different than the “Macro” Market.
- Employ a pricing strategy known as “Slightly Less, Slightly More.” We actively market at a price higher than where similar homes are selling, yet below the competition.
What This Means For You:
Strategic pricing results in increased interest from potential buyers, with heightened interest building a strong demand for your house.

Total Exposure
The more exposure, the greater your profit!
We will:
- Unleash “shock and awe” marketing, alerting over 3 million buyers to your home on day one and every day after!
- Feature your home immediately on the most visible and effective Real Estate search engines such as Zillow, Realtor.com and Trulia, ensuring maximum exposure.
- Expose your home to millions of people through our KW relocation network, the largest in the country.
- Immediately follow-up with agents for critical feedback on how the market is responding to your home.
What This Means For You:
Our Team utilizes all resources to maximize the buyer flow, which generates an on time sale and the HIGHEST sale price.

Worry Free
There are many moving pieces in a Real Estate transaction. Things can go bad quickly if complete attention to detail is not a priority.
We will:
- Provide a team of skilled professionals to oversee the details and anticipate problems before they arise. This assures you a “worry free” transaction, letting you live your life and leave the details to us!
- Walk you through the entire process and properly set expectations to avoid surprises.
- Manage the “selling team” including home inspectors, appraisers, lenders, and the title company.
- Use the most current and detailed Transaction Management system, based on proven checklists and processes, so that nothing falls through the cracks.
- Frequent and consistent communication so you always stay “up-to date.”
What This Means For You:
You have peace of mind knowing all the bases are covered.

How to Plan for Showings
Flexibility
Be as accommodating as possible to potential buyers in regard to accepting showing requests, that way missed opportunities will be avoided
Communicate
Make sure all members of your household know about showings in advance, get all on the same page on keeping the house in show-ready condition
Clean Daily
Take care of daily mess, declutter household “hot spots”, clean kitchen counter tops and bathrooms before leaving the house
Odor-Free
Be mindful of strong-smelling food odors when preparing meals; plan for neutral smelling meals and empty trash cans the night before showings
Pet Aware
Clean up after pets immediately – both inside and outside; wash or vacuum any fur coated areas; hide pet food and litter; keep in mind, not all buyers are pet lovers
Lighting
Open all blinds and curtains throughout the house; leave lights on in all rooms if possible; the more light a house has, the better it shows
Temperature
Valuables
Take Leave
Plan to be out of the house at least 15 minutes prior to a showing and for the duration; having the seller present tends to make buyers feel uncomfortable
