If you think that selling a waterfront home is the same as selling a luxury home, condo or townhome, you’re right… they EACH need an experienced agent who knows that niche and specializes in the way that particular property type is marketed. Of the 650+ homes The Becker Group has sold in the last 3 yrs, nearly 1/3 of them have been waterfront homes. When selling a home, especially a waterfront home, it’s critical that a real estate agent and the seller be on the same page as one another. After all, we are partners for a few weeks while getting your home SOLD!.
Price it Right, From the Start Pricing is especially critical when pricing waterfront homes and many factors should be taken into consideration, such as: Are you part of a community, club, or association? What type of watersports are allowed on your lake? Are there horsepower restrictions for your watercrafts? What amenities are available? What kind of frontage do you have? How deep is your access? Our FREE home evaluations offer in-depth insights into every aspect of what makes your home unique.
Hire a Top Producing Real Estate Agent When selling a waterfront home, you’re not just selling a home, you’re selling a Lifestyle, so it’s important to hire an agent who is not only knowledgeable on each unique area, but can also properly guide you in presenting your home in its most alluring light. Don't necessarily choose the agent who suggests the highest list price (that number might be unrealistic); also look for the best marketing plan along with the best personality for your style and needs. Most of The Becker Group team members have enjoyed lake life for many years, and are well aware of what potential buyers are looking for.
Steps a Homeowner Can Take Be pro-active in preparing your waterfront property for the market. To be a successful seller, you must detach yourself emotionally from your home and be honest about how it should look in order to sell.
