How We Can Work Together

Selling Your House

Pricing your property competitively will generate the most activity from agents and buyers. The right price will attract active buyers who are ready to buy now. The first 14 days are critical since the property generates the most interest when it first hits the market.

Pricing your property too high may make it necessary to later drop the price below market value to compete with new, well priced listings. With our market knowledge and expertise, your home's location, size, style and condition, buyer supply, and community amenities, we'll calculate a competitive value of your home, priced right.

First impressions are everything, and we know what it takes to make that impression last. 

We take pride in taking high-definition photographs at the right time of day, with the appropriate equipment. Our team utilizes drone aerial photography for acreage, golf course, waterfront, and condo listings. Aerial photography allows us to showcase the lifestyle component that our coastal location provides and helps folks relocating to the area to get a better feel for the local surroundings.

The Fletcher Team listings have an advantage over others because of our attention to detail. Your home will be featured on our website as well as Zillow, Realtor.com, Trulia, and Facebook where it can be seen 24/7 world-wide. All open houses will be promoted on websites and social media increasing the exposure of your home.

We will market your home extensively using several proven approaches, including sponsored posts to targeted audiences, videos including a virtual tour and YouTube as well as Facebook, and SEO targeting throughout. Facebook posts are optimized for time of day, post type, trending professional home images, SEO keywords and often sponsored to a carefully selected local target audience.

In other words, we market your home like crazy to make sure your home gets the exposure it deserves!

Inspections and potential repairs are the number one reason sales don’t close. Typically buyers have a certain number of days in which to have the property inspected and accept or reject the property based upon these inspections.

After inspections are done, it's time for negotiations which can often be the most intimidating part of the selling process. Lucky for you, through our years of experience, we've learned powerful tactics that work. We'll negotiate on your behalf to ensure your needs, wants, desires and transactional goals are met while also getting you the best price in the shortest amount of time.

Congratulations! It's time to close on your sale. 

The closing process finalizes the sale of your home and makes everything official. Closing is also known as settlement, the closing is when you get paid and the buyer receives the deed to your home.

We're so happy for you and the next adventure you're about to embark on. If you need anything at all, know we're here for you! 

Buying A House

During our initial call or meeting, we'll get to know you and your goals and determine if we want to work together. We'll also take this time to explain how we plan to represent and guide you at every step of the process. 

Next, we'll uncover what you're truly looking for and create your ultimate wishlist. This wishlist should include things like your likes, dislikes, and must-haves so we can begin narrowing down the homes on the market that fit your criteria.

The last thing you want to do is fall in love with a home that's simply outside of your price range. Getting pre-qualified for a loan will prevent this from happening and allow you to focus on looking at homes that not only meet your criteria but more importantly, fit within your price range.

Not only will we send you listings that meet your criteria, we'll also set you up on MLS alerts so new listings are sent straight to your inbox. After browsing homes online and visiting the ones you really love in person, we'll get together and decide which home is the one!

We'll offer our professional opinion of value and help you write a competitive offer, which is important in such a competitive market. Lucky for you, we're experts in this market and you can count on us to always do what's in your best interest. 

Once you have an accepted offer, we'll arrange for inspections, appraisal and mortgage approval. Not only is there negotiation needed on price, but also after inspections and appraisal. This may sound overwhelming but we're here to make this process as easy as possible for you.

Congratulations! It's time to close on your dream home. 

On settlement day, the final paperwork is signed and the home is officially handed over to you. You'll receive the keys and that's it, you're officially a new homeowner!
