Your home is in great demand.

July 13,2023 | Posted By Flavia Brown in Real Estate

Dear homeowner,

This is a fairly long email, so I apologize. At the same time, if you have been thinking of selling your home, my email will be a worthwhile read because now is a good time to sell. Property values are declining and interest rates are increasing (now at 7%+ average for a 30-year fixed loan), which eliminates many prospective buyers. Note: Be sure to read the P.P.S. It provides a seller's net sheet and template. It calculates the net proceeds from a sale).

Note to anyone who received a Notice of Trustee Sale (NTS): Depending on the number of days before the auction date, you can list your home on the MLS and get it sold. I can get your home sold quickly at the highest price the market will bear. Three advantages to selling: will get you out of a financial bind, will prevent damaging your credit, and you can buy a replacement home.

As an accomplished and savvy realtor for 17 ½ years, I can find or create a good deal on a replacement home if that will be in your plans. Getting the highest sold price will be easy because my marketing program is among the best – strong and effective marketing designed to attract the most buyers and real estate agents. Even with strong marketing and other agents attracting buyers I can’t take a chance on any of my listings staying unsold for a long time. So I must be proactive and spend a lot of money on marketing and sending hundreds of emails, texts, and making many phone calls to prospective buyers. I subscribe to five databases: L. A. Business Journal, A to Z Database, Contract Any Celebrity, Rocket Reach, and RedX. My marketing program is here: https://homesbyflavia.com/blog/real-estate/a-marketing-program-better-than-most

By the way, public records show that your home is off-market. However, if you are currently represented by another broker, please disregard this email.

For a replacement home, I know how to find or create good deals in all of Los Angeles County, although my primary area is the South Bay of L.A. County. Also, I know where to get a 4.25% interest loan, and I know how to execute and coordinate simultaneous close of escrows. That is, close escrow on your existing home and your replacement home at the same time.

But let’s get back to selling your home. I get homes sold fast and at the highest price possible because of my marketing, which includes putting my listings on more than 400 real estate portals and websites, sending several blast emails to more than 35,000 L.A. County real estate agents and brokers, getting my listings on all the major social media sites, open houses, professional flyers, and much more. For high-end homes I promote in all of California, the U.S., and internationally. I also have written easy-to-understand Proposition 19 and Capital Gains Tax info. Also, after studying and analyzing the comps (comparative market analysis, or CMA) I will know exactly what your asking should be to attract the most buyers and get your home sold at the highest price possible. If your price is too high it will put your home in a higher price range for searching, and it will discourage prospective buyers. If it’s too low you will lose money, although sellers don’t have to accept any price, whether it is low, at the asking price, or even higher than the asking price.

Regarding accurate pricing, I know exactly the market value of any property by studying and analyzing the comps (similar nearby recently sold homes and Active listings). My custom Comparative Market Analysis is more accurate than the typical boilerplate CMA.

If you will need a replacement home, don’t worry about high interest rates because I can direct you to mortgage brokers with programs that include down payment and closing costs assistance, and a much lower rate than the current average 30-year fixed loan. In addition, I will: 1) Help you make a lot of money by making a wise investment by finding or creating a good deal and driving down the asking price, anywhere in Los Angeles County or beyond; 2) Present an offer with no upfront money or proof of funds; 3) Get the seller to take care of all needed repairs; and 4) Provide a smooth and problem-free transaction. Wait! There’s more: Depending on the asking price, my broker fee from the seller, and other factors, I may be in a position to give you a substantial rebate, pay the property inspection and appraisal fees, and if the lender doesn’t pay your closing costs, I will pay part of it. But first I will try to get the seller to pay.

Meanwhile, you might want to read my new real estate book. It’s on a Word document waiting to be formatted by a publisher, then it will go on Amazon and other sites. But it’s also on my website blog post, so It’s free for now. My book is more informative and helpful than any other real estate book that I have seen. It includes in detail every step in a residential real estate transaction for buyers and sellers. Chapter 4 explains how to buy a home wisely and make money. (Total of 22 chapters).

P.S. During my 17 ½ years as a full-time Realtor and 257 closed escrows, I never had a complaint and my DRE record is spotless. My transactions run smoothly and problem-free, thanks partly to my exceptional transaction coordinator and my business partner/husband with 28 years of real estate experience. I could have had more transactions, but I prefer to be at a comfortable level where I can provide exemplary service rather than seeing how many listings I can get.

P.P.S. It would be unprofessional and a disservice to sellers if real estate agents didn’t provide seller net sheets. There shouldn’t be any surprises in the selling process before, during, or after the escrow period. Basically, a seller's net sheet is calculated by taking the home sold price or an offer and subtracting all encumbrances on the property, closing costs, and miscellaneous fees. When working on the net sheet template be sure to add to add things like moving costs, buying furniture, property taxes, and homeowners insurance. These three links should be helpful:
