Questions to ask your Real Estate Agent

by Claudia S. Nelson 

Keller Williams Realty, Woodbridge VA

1. How long have you been in the business?

I have been in sales pretty much my entire life and started Real Estate in 2008 at the height of the economic crisis with lots and lots of foreclosures hitting the market at that time. I truly enjoy helping my clients buy or sell Real Estate it is a true honor of being part of this part of my clients life.

I became a Real Estate Agent after having a had bad experiences with Real Estate Agents and my ex-husband encouraged me to get my Real Estate license so I would never get frustrated if an agent doesn’t call me back. I inquired about Real Estate licensing classes the same day and have never looked back. I absolutely love what I am doing and would not want to change anything about my passion which ultimately become my job.

2. How much real estate have you personally sold in the last 2 years in Woodbridge?

I focus on the Woodbridge VA Real Estate Market and I am the top selling Keller Williams Woodbridge VA Real Estate Agent for the past 3 years. Over the past two years, I have listed and sold 24 homes in Woodbridge alone. This does not include homes I sold in the surrounding area or the countless home buyers I helped purchase in and around the Woodbridge VA area. 
3. What is your average List-Price-to-Sales-Price ratio?

I just ran a report and my Average List to Sales Price is 97.5 % with an average of 20 days on market. 
4. What’s your plan?

I have a detailed marketing plan which is outlined on my website at:
  1. Comprehensive Marketing Plan
  2. Extensive Online Marketing
  3. Extended Marketing Reach 

5. How about a few references?My clients have provided me with excellent references which you can view on several public webistes. For your convenience, I have compiled a list with all the refreence websites and even listed a few of my clients testimonials on there:

Yes. I work with different professional in all walks of life. I would be more than happy to providing you with references.

7. Are you a full-time Agent? 

Yes. I am a full-time Real Estate Agent. 

8. How much business do you generate from referrals

Over 50 % of my business comes from returning customers or referrals from happy clients and friends. For that matter, the best compliment I can ever receive is a referral. 

9. Do you offer an easy exit strategy from a listing agreement or buyers agreement?

Yes, for all my client agreements I offer easy exit strategies. If you are not happy with my service or you decided no longer to purchase or sell, there is no cost for you and I have an easy exit strategy.

Are you looking for a good Handyman?
 
 
One of my friends recently had a leak in her roof. She was soo worried about her house and she wanted to get it fixed as soon as possible but also didn't want to spend an arm and a leg to get it all fixed. I hooked her up with one of my contractors, the contractor fixed her roof quickly and at an affordable price. She now has almost half of her roof replaced, no more leak and can sleep at night without worrying.

8 Inexpensive Ways to Increase Your Home’s Value

8 Inexpensive Ways to Increase Your Home’s Value



1. Cleaning and decluttering ($290 cost / $1,990 price increase / 586% ROI)
2. Landscaping ($540 cost / $1,932 price increase / 258% ROI)
3. Repairing electrical or plumbing ($535 cost / $1,505 price increase / 181% ROI)
4. Kitchen and bathroom upgrades ($1,265 cost / $3,435 price increase / 172% ROI)
5. Replace or shampoo carpets ($647 cost / $1,730 price increase / 169% ROI)
6. Paint interior ($1,012 cost / $2,112 price increase / 109% ROI)
7. Repair floors ($931 cost / $1,924 price increase /107% ROI)
8. Paint exterior ($1,467 cost / $2,222 price increase / 51% ROI)


Full disclosure, I received the above list from another Real Estate agent. I don’t know where she got the numbers from but they all look about right to me.

1. Cleaning and decluttering really doesn’t have to cost you anything, unless you are hiring a cleaning team and getting additional storage. If you are decluttering and cleaning this can be a zero cost item and it will have the biggest impact and will give you the highest return. 


2. Same if landscaping, if you have somewhat of a green thumb then go to Lowes or home depot and buy some nice flower pots, mulch and anything else that can give your home curb appeal.

3. Repairing electrical or plumbing for this you will most likely hire a professional, but you can replace and making sure all light bulbs are working.


4. Small kitchen and bathroom upgrades will go a long way. You can upgrade flooring very easily, paint will go a long way too. 


5. Clean carpets, this will go a long way. 


6. Paint will make your home look great. Neutral paint this is. Paint yourself or hire a professional but this doesn’t have to break the bank either. 


7. Repair Floors, I have an excellent flooring guy that you should contact. 


8. Paint the exterior, especially your front door, again this doesn’t have to break the bank and will have a great impact.

6 Steps to Staging your Home

1. Curb Appeal 
Make sure you mow the lawn, tidy up all your flower beds, be sure to rake any leaves. Take a close look at your front door and windows. Do they need to be painted? You be surprised what a fresh coat of paint can do for you for curb appeal. Your home might be looking great inside but if it doesn’t look the part, you are losing prospective buyers. 

2. Start packing  

Since you are going to move soon anyway start packing up stuff you don’t need every day. Less is more. 

3. A Bedroom should be a Bedroom 

Turn bedrooms back into a bedroom and remove any workout machines you might have in your bedroom. 

4. Declutter Less is more 

Declutter your home as much as possible. Less is more. Your home will look so much bigger with less clutter. Remove most items from the kitchen counter tops and all bathroom sinks. Depersonalize your home as much as possible. Removing personal pictures will allow the prospective buyers to imaging the home with their stuff and it also will not distract buyers from the actual home. 

5. Clean up

Be sure your home is presenting in its best possible light. Clean up which includes windows,

6. Add some color 


Put nice flower pots at the entrance and even add a nice welcome letter to the front door. This will also help you with curb appeal.

Beautiful Snow Day in Woodbridge VA
 
Today is a beautiful day with the snow falling over night turning Woodbridge into a dream winter wonderland. I managed to get out early this morning to shovel the walkway and my drive way. The sun as taking care of the rest and has cleared the streets, which is great. 
 
All over Facebook I am seeing great snow pictures with kids and adults enjoying snow day. The schools are closed today, the local government has a liberal leave policy and the Federal government is closed for snow day. 
 
Snow days are always so much fun, stay in and try to keep warm. For a Real Estate Agent like me this is a great time to follow up on calls as many clients will be home making this a great time getting a hold of everyone. 
 
What are you doing on your snow day?
 
Do you want to enjoy a beautiful snow day in Woodbridge VA. If you are looking to move to Woodbridge contact me today. I am a Woodbridge VA Real Estate Agent and I would love to assisting you.
