What's Involved in Showing Your Property?
Coordinating Appointments
All REALTORS® from Edina Realty and other cooperating brokers will call your
listing associates office to request an appointment to show or preview your property.
The office appointment coordinator will call to inform you of requests for appointments.
The coordinator will also contact the REALTOR® to confirm the appointment.
If You Cannot Be Reached
If every attempt to reach you has been made, the appointment coordinator will
go ahead and confirm the appointment with the requesting REALTOR®.
Unless specifically instructed, it is presumed that you do not want
to miss any opportunity to show your property to interested parties.
Appointment Time Frame
A request for an appointment is usually made within an hour or two but could be as soon as a few minutes,
or as distant as a day or two. REALTORS® attempt to be punctual; however circumstances may cause
them to be earlier or later than expected. In the event an associate needs to cancel an appointment,
you will be notified as soon as possible.
Special Instructions
Your REALTOR will see that any special instructions you have communicated are noted in
your Property records. Appropriate information
(pets, security, etc) will be provided to the requesting
REALTOR® when the appointment is confirmed.
The Appointment
All licensed REALTORS® will identify themselves
and offer you their business card. If a card is not
offered to you don't hesitatevto request one. If you
are not present during the appointment, the
REALTOR® will gain access by using the lock box
on the Property.
Privacy Is Important
Avoid having too many people present during appointments.
The buyer may feel like an intruder and may hurry through your property.
Allow the REALTOR® and buyer to talk, free of disturbances.
REALTORS® know their buyer's requirements,
and will emphasize the features of your property that are important to the client.
If You Plan To Be Away
Please inform your REALTOR® of any extended period of time when you will not
be available to give permission for appointments.
If possible, you should provide your associate with a
number where you can be reached in the event an offer needs to be presented.
Reviewing Properties
REALTORS® who preview your property, without a prospective buyer along,
are simply educating themselves on current properties on the market or
are attempting to match the needs of a client. If your property meets the needs of their client,
they will call and make another appointment to show your property.
Whether you need home repairs, inspections, home insurance, home warranty,
mortgage services, title services or security services I
can provide you with reliable professional resources in all of these fields.
Unexpected Requests
If anyone srops by without appointment to see
your property, ask them to call the phone number on
the "For Sale" sign to schedule an appointment.
