Sell Your House Fast in Chandler For the Best Price!
Want to sell your home fast in Chandler for the best price? Hiring a successful real estate agent is the first step to take once you decide to put your home on the market. Your agent will serve as the main point of contact for both you and potential buyers by scheduling showings, creating your listing, and marketing your property. Homes sold without a real estate agent will typically go for thousands of dollars less than if they were sold by an experienced agent according to the National Association of REALTORS®. Trying to sell a home without an agent is time-consuming, hard work, and risky. If you don’t know what you’re doing, you can set yourself at a huge disadvantage.
One of the first things a reputable agent will do for you is a comparative market analysis (CMA) or home valuation. A CMA will make the home selling process faster and less stressful, and knowing the right value of your home can help you secure the best price. Pricing your house correctly from the beginning is key. Your agent can help you evaluate the market and resist the temptation to overprice your home or give in to your fears and underprice it.
RECEIVE A NO COST COMPETITIVE MARKET ANALYSIS
By overpricing your property, you could lose potential buyers that are actually in your price range. Your home will not be attractive to buyers in the higher price range compared to other similarly priced homes they are viewing. The last thing you want is to have your home linger on the market too long and create the vibe among buyers that something is wrong with it - otherwise known as a "stale listing."
If a home doesn’t sell within 30 days, it’s a good indication that it’s not priced right, according to the National Association of Realtors. Also, research suggests the longer a house stays on the market, the lower its final selling price will be. Sellers may end up making less money than if they’d priced the house correctly when it first listed. You don’t want to price a home too high, but you don’t want to go too low, either. Pricing your home too low may cause it to sell faster, but for less money than you could have received if priced correctly at market value. Priced too low and a potential buyer may also wonder if something is secretly wrong with your property.
Comparable Homes or "Comps"
One of the best indicators of your home’s value is the sale prices of similar homes in your neighborhood that have recently sold. These comparable homes are often referred to as “comps.” Most real estate experts will rely on comps to estimate a home’s value and will consider recency, similarity, distance, and location:
- Recency – homes that were sold recently or within the last 90 days
- Similarity – homes that are most similar to your property in terms of features such as year built, two-story vs. ranch, number of bedrooms, bathrooms, basement, square footage, pool, landscaping, etc.
- Distance – homes in the same subdivision or sold within a one-mile radius of your property
- Location – homes with the same placement such as on a busy street, cul-de-sac, golf course, or waterfront.
Your agent will look into the difference between each comp’s listing price, and the price the listing sold for. Agents rely on inside knowledge of housing inventory and the local market. That nuanced understanding is invaluable, particularly when measuring the unique aspects of your home with raw data about comps - using the multiple listing service (MLS), a regional database of homes that agents pay dues to access.

"Cathy was a terrific agent from beginning to end. Her comps were accurate and helpful at the outset. Her marketing was the best we have seen in our experience and we have sold 7 previous homes. She handled all the selling and closing negotiations very well and helped us navigate several anxious turns in the process. Cathy is calm, judicious, and responsive and we found her opinions and ideas valuable. We would use her to sell or buy a house again without hesitation. Great to work with and got great results."

She kept my deal together by going beyond the call of duty to do some of the work of a novice agent (representing the buyer) on the sale of my house. Plus, she really went to bat for me on the purchase of my new home, getting upgrades and closing in 3-weeks. I highly recommend Cathy to represent you in selling and purchasing your next home or investment."
“I have dealt with many real estate agents and I would have to say Cathy Carter was a pleasure to deal with. We flew in from New York to see the area and Cathy gave us as much time as we needed. She showed us around and made us feel comfortable and welcome. As of today we are currently in contract for the sale of our home and are actively looking at homes in the Gilbert and Chandler areas. Cathy emails homes for us to look at on a regular basis and we would not use anyone else.”
“My husband and I worked with Cathy to find our home in the East Valley suburbs of Phoenix AZ. We were transferred to Phoenix from the east coast and Cathy did a wonderful job of orienting us to the area and helping us gain perspective into the different homes and neighborhoods in the East Valley. While working with Cathy, she was always very attentive and efficient.Cathy is extremely knowledgeable. She listened to our ideas about the ideal home, offered suggestions, and took us to see properties that were in line with our expectations. Cathy is extremely responsive and has even reached out to check on us after we moved into our hew home. I would highly recommend Cathy to anyone who is interested in selling their home or purchasing a new home.”
