SELLING YOUR HOME IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT DECISIONS YOU WILL MAKE IN YOUR LIFE

How much is it REALLY worth? How long could it take to sell? How do you handle buyers making undesirable offers?

It’s my job to guide you through this complicated process, from beginning to end. I want you to get the maximum value for your home, within YOUR time frame.

Buyers want to buy your home for as little as possible, especially in this market! I have the experience and knowledge on how to create the most ideal and beneficial scenarios for my homesellers.  Put my experience to work for you!

I know my market areas and have seen many of the homes that are available or have already sold.  I can knowledgably make comparisons that can stop buyer objections in their tracks!

More buyers interested in your Morris County, Sussex County or Northern Bergen County home means more money in your pocket when it is sold. My extensive marketing of your home assures you of maximum value.

Let me place your home on the numerous sophisticated websites I use, with beautifully staged photos, virtual tours, and enticing and informative descriptions of the finest details of your home! 

My website, www.AntoinettesHomes.com will market your property all across the web.  Your home will appear on top local and national real estate sites...a total of 20+ popular home sites!

Broaden Your Home's Online Presence!

Traffic to my website continues to increase month by month thanks to the Syndication programs I utilize. Listing Syndication maximizes my listings exposure to the most buyers possible! On a daily basis, my website automatically sends my listings to many different Real Estate websites...more websites than what any other agent will be using!

realtorcom.jpgUnlike some of my competition, I use Realtor.com to its fullest capacity, and will include my special staged photographs of your home, with professionally written descriptive details of all the wonderful aspects of your home which will set it above other homes on the market!

My listings are designated as “Showcase” properties on Realtor.com, the most popular search engine used by homebuyers.  Visit Realtor.com and review most of the properties for sale...are they positioned for maximum attention and exposure?  My listings stand out from the rest!

When we begin marketing your home, I will immediately notify all the REALTORS® working your market area, who quickly tell their homebuyers. It is a powerful way to jump-start the sale of your home!

asp_logo_web.jpgAs an Accredited Staging Professional, I will walk through your home with you, and advise you how to present your property to maximize its selling price. Some improvements are worth it, and some are not!  One meeting with me could save you lots of time and money!

I assure you that I will work hard to get your home sold, for as much as this market will possibly bear.

I will also work within your time frame and your needs. For example, sometimes it can be hard to sell and move out of your current home, and buy and move into a new home, all at the same time! I will help coordinate all the details so that your transition from one home to the next will be as effortless as possible.

Call or email me. Ask for a free In-Home Presentation!  I have important and wonderful information to share with you that will help you sell your home for top dollar and gain maximum exposure in today's competitive market.

There is absolutely no obligation, so don't let this opportunity pass. Your home is possibly your largest asset, and you need pertinent information and advice in this very important decision making process leading to the sale of your home.  I specialize in helping people to move on with their lives!  It would be my pleasure and an honor to help you in this most important task!
