A COMMITMENT!

As real estate professionals, Coldwell Banker and I realize we have a responsibility to provide the best possible services for our customers. For example, when homeowners select us to sell their home, we must do much more than put it in MLS, place a sign in the yard and wait for a call. Listed below are just some of the ways we work to help sellers obtain the maximum value for their home. They are just some of the reasons we sell more homes in the greater Tulsa area than anyone!

OKLAHOMA’S BEST

BE CAREFUL!

Many of the national real estate websites now offer a programs which purport to give a current market value for a home. Most often using data from tax records, these AVM’s (Automated Valuation Model) calculate a statistical value based on reported sales from the area. Unfortunately, such programs usually ignore differences between neighborhoods and specific features of comparable homes. As a result, the values derived from these programs are often grossly inaccurate.
If you would like to know the real market value of your home, you would be well-served to ask a real estate professional to prepare a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) for your home. There is no charge for such a service.
Of course, I would be happy to provide you an up-to-date CMA. Since I specialize in home sales in the area, my knowledge of the local market allows me to provide a more accurate analysis of your home’s value than a computer model.
So, please don’t make a decision about selling your home without determining its real market value! Contact me at slaunchbaugh@cbtulsa.com for your free market analysis.

MID-YEAR REPORT

During the first six months of 2009, the number of homes SOLD in the greater Tulsa area (Tulsa, Creek, Osage, Rogers, and Wagoner Counties) fell 9.9%. Yet according to statistics compiled from NORES, INC (MLS), the average sales prices have remained relatively steady.
At Coldwell Banker Select Realtors, we are pleased to report we have successfully marketed more than 1100 homes, which is 22.6% of the homes SOLD in the five county metro area. In addition, we have participated in 500+ transaction sides more than our nearest competitor.
If you are thinking of selling your home, it just makes sense to contact Sarah, the associate with the company, Coldwell Banker Select, which sells the most homes in the greater Tulsa area by far.

WATCH OUT FOR CHILDREN!

School will be starting here in the Tulsa School District on August 20, 2009. Along with a significant change in the students daily routine, it will mean many children will be walking to and standing near bus stops. Please slow your driving speed and watch out for the children! Thank You!
