• First, we will give your home a “design appraisal”. We will look at your home as a customer would view it, and we will list everything we think should be done that is economically justified to make your home look better before you put it on the market. If you wish to make any of the listed improvements, we can put you in contact with good resources. If it helps your home show better, we will loan accessories such as lamps, flowers or area carpets.
• Second, we will give you a current “market appraisal”. This professional appraisal, at no charge to you, will help you set the best price for your home.
• Third, to prevent any surprises that might jeopardize your closing in some situations, we recommend building, termite and radon inspections before the house is put on the market. If these inspections point up any problems, we will help you decide whether it is wiser to make the repair or market the house without it.

The Anderson Associates Private Client Group: Traditionally, all Realtors, whether listing or selling, represented the seller. Realtors were the seller’s agent or sub-agent. However, the rules of Agency (who the Realtor represents and what their duties are) have been changing rapidly over the last few years. It is vital that you understand this change and that you know whether you are a customer or a client. The obligations the Realtor owes you will be significantly different depending on which you are. Our Private Client Group represents buyers exclusively as their agent.
