The Proven Plan to Maximize Your Sales Price
Many agents will list your home, and when the first offer comes in, they’ll suggest you accept it. While it might be a good offer, how do you know if it’s the best one you could get?
That’s why we’ve developed our 10-Day Blitz Program—a strategic approach designed to properly test the market and maximize your sale price.
Here’s how it works:
- We set an offer due date so we can review all offers at the same time, giving you a clear strategic advantage as a seller.
- The foundation of this strategy is smart pricing—listing your home at or just below market value to attract the maximum number of buyers.
- This often leads to multiple offers, creating competitive energy among buyers.
- As buyers compete, the fear of losing the home to someone else often triggers emotions, leading them to outbid each other. This competitive energy can drive the final sale price significantly above market value.
This method isn’t about accepting the first offer—it’s about securing the best one. With our 10-Day Blitz Program, you can sell your home with confidence and clarity, knowing every opportunity was fully explored.
The Art of Negotiation
A common issue sellers face is buyers canceling during escrow, often due to poor vetting. These cancellations can raise red flags for future buyers, resulting in lower offers, wasted time, and added stress.
To prevent this:
- We rigorously vet all potential buyers by assessing their motivation and overall commitment to the purchase.
- We also verify with their lender that they’re financially qualified and have the funds to buy the home.
During escrow, buyers typically have seven legal opportunities to cancel a contract, each tied to specific contingencies and timelines. Instead of waiting for these timelines to unfold, we proactively share all relevant details with buyers, ensuring they fully understand and accept them upfront. This approach:
✅Protects Sale Price: By presenting all information upfront, buyers understand that credit requests or price reductions won’t be entertained later in the process.
✅ Significantly Lower Risk of Cancellation: Buyers are less likely to back out when they understand and accept the terms upfront. Once a contingency is acknowledged and accepted, they can no longer legally use it to cancel the contract. This also prevents the property from returning to the market, which can scare buyers, leading to lower offers and significantly prolonging the time it takes to sell.
✅Peace Of Mind: With proven systems, we make the selling process more predictable and less stressful from start to finish. You can move forward with confidence, knowing that potential issues have been addressed upfront, minimizing risks and unexpected setbacks.
✅Minimized Delays: By resolving key details early, we prevent unnecessary delays, protect your timeline, and maintain buyer confidence throughout escrow.
✅Fewer Surprises: By tackling contingencies early, we prevent last-minute surprises that can delay closing, lower offers, or even cause deals to fall apart.
Protection: Preventing Lawsuits
Failing to properly disclose property issues is the #1 reason sellers face lawsuits. In Hawaii, sellers are legally required to complete a six-page disclosure statement with over 100 detailed questions about their property.
Most agents will simply hand you the form to fill out on your own, but this document can be overwhelming and confusing to navigate.
That’s why we go beyond the standard approach:
- We guide you through every question, ensuring nothing is missed or misunderstood.
- We help you disclose with clarity and accuracy, reducing legal risks.
- We offer strategies to address disclosures thoughtfully, so you can protect yourself without scaring away buyers.
While we’re not attorneys and don’t provide legal advice, our experience ensures you’ll approach disclosures thoroughly and confidently, reducing the risk of misunderstandings that could derail your sale.
