THE SOLD EXPERIENCE

return to the home page
We Sell Faster


The average time to sell one of our listings is 47 days.
 
Team Teasdale is able to sell your home 15 days faster than the average agent in Utah County.  Selling a home can be the most stressful time in a person’s life. Our average selling time will eliminate a lot of that stress. 

We have 20 years of full-time Real Estate experience in Utah County. Would you like a Realtor who only sells 4 homes a year and has
only 3 years experience to negotiate your most valuable asset?  In 2006 we closed 82 homes.  We will negotiate your most valuable asset and net you the highest price possible.  We will sell your home faster than our competitors.

We Net You More Money


Team Teasdale consistently shows and sells our own listings. 
Since we have three full-time agents, we focus on buyers who are directly interested in your home, allowing our team to find buyers
on 28% of our listings.  Not all listed homes sell.  In fact, the average agent fails to sell 24% of their own listings.  Due to our extensive marketing, Team Teasdale is currently selling 90% of our listings.  We are experienced negotiators.

In 2006 we obtained 99.4% of our asking price on our sold homes.
With 20 years of team experience and over $116,000,000.00 in sales volume, we are able to negotiate the highest market value on your home.  This directly affects the money that goes into your pocket after the sale is complete. For example, on a $300,000 home we net
on average $2,100 more than the average Realtor in Utah County.
What could you do with an additional $2,100?

More Experience


Team Teasdale’s sales volume is 21 times the Average Agent in Utah County.  In fact, we have career sales in excess of $116,000,000.00.  Only a few Realtors in Utah County have this amount of experience.  We will put years of qualified experience on your side of the negotiating table.  Team Teasdale has three full-time agents directly working on selling your home. Many Realtors in Utah County sell Real Estate only part time.

Showing Feedback
by Team Member, Michelle

Team Member, Michelle, will contact you on every showing.

Gathering showing feedback is the lost art of home sales.  Most buyers that see your home often leave with additional questions.  For example:  Where are the property lines? Is the fridge included? Will the seller repaint the child’s bedroom? 

 

Would you repaint a bedroom for a full price offer?  Would you consider leaving the fridge?  Proper follow-up immediately after
a showing will help a buyer stay focused on buying your home. 

 

In our experience, we find that less than 5% of Agents in Utah County call us after we show their homes.  The vast majority of Realtors are missing out on additional sales by not doing follow-up.  They tell us it is too time consuming and bothersome.  However, we know proper follow-up works!  It helps us sell our homes faster than our competition and for more money.  

 

Sometimes we need your help collecting the names of Agents who are showing your home, along with their phone numbers.  All follow-up will be coordinated via phone or email.  Contact Michelle at: 636-6420

We will report buyers’ comments back to you, typically within 24 hours.  Beware!  We don’t filter showing follow-up.  We will give it to you just like we hear it.  Be prepared; feedback can cause both joy and pain.  Our online feedback system is fully automated.  Every showing is recorded with notes, times, and detailed information. 


We provide feedback to you on every single showing.
                                                                             
                                     
 

Weekend Updates
by Team Member, Avril


Team Member, Avril, will contact you every weekend with a complete marketing update.  We want you to know what is going on with our marketing and how your home and price are being received into the market. We can provide information like how many visitors have viewed your virtual tour.  We like to make adjustments to our strategy and game plan as needed.

 

The biggest complaint about hiring a Realtor is that he/she makes big promises and then disappears.  Our team is very pro-active and involved with you in your home selling process.  You will appreciate our desire and effort to keep you informed.

Offers
by Team Member, Paul

To prove we are on top of the game, we want to keep you updated.  Some Realtors attend the closing; some don’t.  We want you to know that we always attend our closings.  We want your home selling experience to be positive every step of the way. You will appreciate our personal touch.  Team Member, Paul, will negotiate your offers and trouble-shoot any technical problems that may arise in selling your home.


Sale Pending Updates
by Team Member, Dave

Team Member, Dave, will contact you every Friday via phone or email and give you a Sale Pending update.
Once your home has an offer, we continue
to keep you in the loop.    

 

He will call the other agent and lender to discuss and monitor the progress.  He will resolve any concerns or potential problems.
A good agent knows he/she must keep a sharp eye on this entire process or the sale may implode.


Repairs
by Team Member, Mike

 

Team Member, Mike, will assist in any requested buyer-related repairs.  Mike is someone we call “Jack-of-all-trades.”  He quickly runs at the drop of a hat to repair problems that may be holding our closing from happening.  He is also the same guy you will see installing signs and delivering flyers when they run out. 


Your Team

 

Why Should I Use a Team Instead of a Single Realtor?

One of the biggest complaints when hiring a Realtor is not being able to get him/her on the phone.  Another complaint is that once you hire a Realtor, he/she delegates the job to a less experienced assistant.

Working with us will gain you the benefit of an entire Utah County real estate team vs. a single Realtor.  Since our entire team never takes a vacation or time off, you’ll be able to reach someone whenever you need us. 

Our Team has specialists who work on every aspect of the home buying and selling process—everything from advertising to the closing, and then even after.  There is no need for a "Jack-of-all-trades, master of none” realtor.  Each member of our team is a master of his/her
own specialty.

Website

Alexa.com ranks all the websites in the world.  They monitor page views and traffic to determine ranking.  We want you to know that we have the very best built and positioned independent Realtor’s website in Utah County.  It took us years of experience to get to the top. On 06/02/2006 our Alexa score was ranked 494,107.


The reason why this score is so important is because it directly impacts search engine results.  For example, in March 2007 we had 171 (mostly out-of-state) buyers emailing us, asking for help finding a home in Utah County.  Like an online dating service, we will match our buyers with your home.  The truth is, without a highly ranked and indexed website, most Realtors are unable to independently generate online buyers.  The reality is:  The majority of our competitors’ sites do not even score on Alexa.com.


In March 2007 we experienced 243,198 page views.  Even some of the best Agents in Utah County rely on their corporate websites, claiming an online presence.  This is ineffective because your home will not get the personal attention it requires to sell.  Google key words like: homes in Utah County, schools in Utah County, Utah County listing database, Utah County real estate.  Pick keywords for homes in our area and utahcountylistings.com will either be on the front page or very close in all
three major search engines.
 

Out-of-State Buyers

Here is a pie chart showing which states visited our website in 2006.  Approximately 2,000 out-of-state buyers filled out our on-line buyer’s form in 2006.  They gave us a full, detailed description of what they were looking to buy when they came to Utah.  Our forms are fully automated and simple to use.  We follow up on every single lead.  We are known in the industry for specializing in
out-of-state buyers. 

We love out-of-state buyers because they hire Realtors, come to town and BUY, are financially stronger, and haggle less over prices.

California
UtahCountyListings.com  had 243,198 Pageviews and 122,125 visitors in March 2007.

Your Virtual Tour

Have you been searching the internet for a home? 
Do you spend more time visiting the homes that have tours? 
Homes with virtual tours are shown more and sell faster.
We have received many offers directly from buyers viewing our virtual tours, without ever physically seeing the home.  Recently, we sold another home in Saratoga Springs for $550k.  They wrote an offer in New Jersey after viewing the virtual tour online, without physically viewing the home. 

Many of the Realtors offering tours hire a virtual tour company.  These companies usually take several days or weeks before they build and position your tour.  Team Teasdale will build your tour within 24 hours.  This means that your listing will load with a full tour instead of a blank square.  A virtual tour makes a great first impression on buyers.  Your virtual tour will be featured on hundreds of Utah Realtors’ websites.


Virtual Tour Facts
Our unique virtual tours are a powerful real estate marketing  tool.  The same day you list your home with Team Teasdale we will start building your 30-100 photo virtual tour right away.  As experienced photographers and will make your home look awesome. 
Only about 8% of Realtors in Utah are publishing virtual tours.
85% of buyers shop for their home online before contacting a Realtor.  Virtual tours are a MUST HAVE for anyone seriously selling.

Double-Sided Brochures


Your brochures will be developed with detailed graphics and custom trim and will be delivered within 24 hours of listing your home.  Double-sided brochures provide more information and pictures of your home.  If you run out of brochures, give us a call, and we will deliver new brochures immediately.  

Beware!  Some Realtors will tell you brochures don’t matter.  Research has shown brochures are an effective means of keeping
the home fresh in the buyers mind.  Buyers drive around collecting brochures on homes and make selections based on these brochures.   

 

 

Your Next Home Magazine

 


We have been running full page ads (front cover included) in the Utah County Magazines on a regular basis for 12 years.  This free, monthly home magazine has one of the largest distributions in Utah County.  The distribution is around 16,000 full color copies.  The magazine is distributed in all major grocery stores, real estate offices and other indoor locations, hundreds of outdoor racks and direct mailed to over 2000 households.  

Some Agents promise that your home will be featured in several magazines.  However, the County is full of low distribution magazines.  Keep in mind--this once dominant “print advertising”
to sell homes has taken a back seat to proper internet  exposure.          

RE/MAX.com

Your home will be featured as a showcase property on remax.com.  This is one of the most searched Real Estate sites in the world.  This site regularly produces buyer leads for our team and helps us sell our homes.  Only consider a RE/MAX agent when selling your home.  RE/MAX currently has four billboards on the I-15 and dozens of commercials on primetime TV.
 
REMAX sells the most Real Estate in Utah County, period.  The out-of-state buyers hire RE/MAX Agents because of their loyal branding.  This truly makes a difference.  Our team pays over $25,000 per year to be affiliated with RE/MAX.  Paul has his Broker’s License and could easily open his own brokerage to save this RE/MAX fee.  However, we know this would greatly decrease our out-of-state buyers’ pipeline.  We have more buyers than our competition and have established a stronger branding loyalty.
  


Additional Internet Exposure
Advertise your home everywhere online.  With our Internet marketing package your home will get the maximum exposure.  List with Team Teasdale and we will advertise your home on the several national web sites.

WFRMLS is the database that Realtors use to find homes for their clients.  A Realtor cannot pay to upgrade a listing on this site.  However, a skilled Realtor can upload additional photos and post a virtual tour as well.  Over 4,400 Realtors have 24-hour access to this database.  Most of the time a MLS photographer drives past your home several days after hiring a Realtor and snaps a photo, with no consideration for weather or vehicles parked in front of your house.  Your garage door could be open and your garbage bins sitting out right in front of your home. Our Team will take a beautiful picture of your home and immediately upload this photo with your virtual tour within 24 hours. 

UtahRealEstate.com is the public access to the MLS.  It is our hope and desire that you will study, confirm, and review the accuracy of the information we are presenting.  We want you to understand the difference between ineffective internet marketing and a well executed plan.  The average Realtor simply does not understand the technology or the power of internet marketing. The difference results in getting your home sold faster and for more money!


Realtor Networking
With 20 years of team experience selling Real Estate in Utah County, our Team is known and respected throughout the industry.  We enjoy networking and establishing strong bonds with fellow Realtors.  Our long term relationships with other top selling Agents helps promote and sell our listings.

Reflective RE/MAX Signs


Innovative technology allows your sign to be seen 24 hours a day when car lights shine on it, just like a stop sign. Stop signs use this same reflective material.  Yard signs are usually the first point of contact you have, and our reflective signs offer the clean, powerful, professional impression that you are looking for.  Our new signs are bigger and brighter than our competition.  Your signs and brochures will be installed within 24 hours of listing with Team Teasdale.
