Call today to get your home listed or start your search for your dream home. If you want to LIST your home - call someone else! If you want to SELL your home call Mike & Lorie Strange today and find out about how our marketing can get your home in front of the most buyers.

Pre-Approval - Talk with your lender or put you in touch with a lender. We both need to understand the type of financing that you will obtain and what your price range is within this type.

Needs Assessment - We will talk with you before and during showings to determine your needs and your wants. Based on this information we will be able to better filter homes that you are interested in seeing.

Showings - We will schedule and manage showings of properties that you are interested in seeing, when you are able to see them. We will also review your needs and wants as we view homes to determine how each home matches with your criteria. This time also can be a time where we re-define some of your needs vs. wants as once you are actually in a home and see a feature you can make a better decision on the importance of the feature.

Buyer CMA - As your agent, it's our job to provide you with information that will help you make smart decisions. As we narrow your home choices to a particular home, we will create a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA), highlighting similar properties in the neighborhood. This important tool will give you a "snapshot" of homes that are currently listed for sale, as well as those that have sold recently or expired from the market without selling. Reviewing this report together, we'll determine an appropriate price to offer the seller.

Contracts - We will walk you through the contract process and explain each area of the purchase contract and other steps (inspections, request to remedy, pre-approval letters, home warranty etc.) that take place once we write an offer.

Coordinate - We will work with your lender, the title company, the selling agent, the inspectors and of course you to make sure all paperwork and steps are handled in the correct maner.

Communication - We will be in touch with you throughout the process. Keeping your informed of where we are at in the process and what your responsibilities and options are at each step.

Closing - We will be at your closing to bring together all the work that has been addressed prior to the closing and to answer any questions that may arise.

Initial Steps - We will assist in completing all the necessary paperwork to get your home listed while discussing with you your options - home warranty, property disclosure, showing information, what is included and what your want to take etc.

Pricing - We will prepare a though Competitive Market Analysis which will look at homes that have recently sold, homes currently on the market and your home in comparison (size, amenities, location etc.) Together we will determine the best price for your home. You will set the price - We will provide the information and the recommendation. We believe in "right pricing" your home, so it will sell quickly and for top dollar. Over pricing a home will lead to longer time on the market and many times a lower over all sales price.

Staging - Staged homes sell for more money and sell quicker. We have shown a home and that was not staged (buyer input was "it's OK") and then go about 4 doors down in the same neighborhood and show the same floor plan, but in a staged home and the buyer loved it and in fact bought the home! We have a professional staging expert come to your home and go through every room and generate a full home report on what needs to be done to best stage your home.

Showings & Feedback - We will have our staff coordinate with you and other agents that want to show your home and record all these showings. We also follow up on these showing and share this feedback with you. This will allow us together to make the best decisions on your home.

Marketing - This is where over 90% of agents fail. Most agents put a sign in your yard and your property in the MLS and then wait. If this was the answer then why are there over 12,000 homes in the Columbus MLS? We will sit down with you and SHOW you examples of our advertising and marketing of your home. This includes print marketing, web based coverage, call capture systems, multimedia presentations of your property etc. You have to spend money to advertise we are willing to make the investment to SELL your home, not just list it!
