Dear Home or Property Owner,

If you want to sell your property we’d like the opportunity to apply for the job of being your Personal Sales Team. Once you’ve taken a look at our unique award-winning approach, we believe you will understand the advantages of working with us. Before you review this packet, we’d like to briefly outline a few things that set The David Lawson Real Estate Team apart from everyone else:

• The Lawson Team typically gets you More Money! – 2.24% more than the average agent (according to PCMLS), which works out to be $18,582.80 on the average sale of $829,500.

• Because more than 92% of all buyers begin their search for property online, (according to the National Association of Realtors), we invest more than anyone else in Park City in online marketing to ensure that our listed properties are well positioned for maximum exposure.

• For the same price as a single agent, you can have the award-winning, 8-member Lawson Team working on your behalf. One of the very top performing teams in Park City; these dedicated professionals will seamlessly work together to effec-tively market and sell your property.

• The Lawson team has sold almost 1,000 properties in Park City over the past dozen years, a far cry from the average agent’s 3.3 annual sales (Re: PCMLS).

• Our team prospects for at least three hours every day. This is a very effective way to find buyers for your property, and something most other agents aren’t willing to do.

• We maintain 23 Internet domains attracting buyers from all over the world.

• We maintain and communicate monthly with our extensive database of potential buyers.

• Through exclusive internet partnerships we can market your property unlike anyone else.

• Our Buyer’s Guarantee Program consistently attracts serious, high quality buyers for your home.

• We have a comprehensive group of satisfied clients who consistently supply us with referrals. This unique advantage is one of the things that helps set us apart.

We believe our Team is the BEST in the business and we’d like the opportunity to prove it to you.

If you have any questions, please contact us. Of course, there is never any obligation; we simply look forward to speaking with you. When you call be sure to ask about our guarantees, including our unique Easy Exit Listing Guarantee which insures that you will have a positive experience working with us. It states: “If you’re not completely satisfied with our service as promised, you can cancel your listing with us at any time.” Once again, you can reach me on my private line at: 435-901-0904.

Sincerely,

David J. Lawson

Lead Agent The David Lawson Real Estate Team

hire an agent, get a poWerfUl teaM!

MOSt AgentS attempt to juggle buyers, marketing, negotiating and other necessary tasks of selling a home by themselves. this is an extremely inefficient use of an agent’s time, and generally taxes their resources beyond the limits.

• While MOSt AgentS run out of the time, energy, and money needed to sell your home and communicate with you through each step in the process, we have specialists that are committed to each and every nuance of the home selling process.

• Because our team members each have a specialized role, we can move faster and we can ensure you are involved at every stage of the process.

• MOSt AgentS sell fewer homes with their solo approach to the business, which means less cash to invest back into the sale of your home. Because we are among the top sales agents in our area, we have the cash reserves necessary to ensure that your property is marketed in the way which will assure it is seen so it will sell quickly.

72% of other agent’S SellerS are diSSatiSfied . . .While, at the SaMe tiMe, oUr SellerS love US?

the overwhelming reason is poor communication between selling agents and the seller. the problem is

that most agents try to do everything all by themselves, but they simply run out of the time, energy, and

money to do the job and communicate with you properly.

What our sEllErs hAve tO SAy…

• “david was our buyer’s agent for our recent home purchase in Jeremy Ranch. david is incredibly knowledgeable about the area, the local real estate market, and the real estate buying selling process. his level of professionalism is unparalleled in my experience. he was always on top of every detail, was very responsive, and has a vast network of contacts in the Park City area. he has been personally involved in all aspects of real estate in Park City as a builder/contractor, agent, and of course buying/selling many of his own homes in the area over many, many years. you really can’t ask any more from a real estate agent. david will definitely be our agent of choice for any other real estate transactions we do in the future and will be our first and best recommendation to all of our friends/family”. travis Wright

• “ dave Lawson and his team helped us in selling two of our condos at the grand Summit and then he represented us when we bought a condo at the Canyons in park City. he seems to be an insider when it comes to real estate information and where the deals are. I would highly recommend dave for the sale or purchase of a property”. Joe from San diego


• “Over the years david has successfully represented me as listing and buyer’s agent. he’s a professional’s professional who knows the Park City market inside and out. I would never use anyone else. the hardest part of selling a property, especially now, is determining a realistic price. david is a great listener. tell him your story and your needs as honestly as possible. then answer his questions and listen carefully to what he says. I’ve learned that david will buy or sell property for you with as much care as if it were his own. david is personable and easy to work with. I like to pick his brain about the best investment deals (and steals) to be had in Park City. Lately he’s become an expert on short sales. Although I’ve never used him for a short sale, I’d readily recommend using him to someone in need. If you need to appeal your property tax valuation, david has a service (which I’ve used) to do just that. he won a big refund for me and did all the work”. William Snider

• “ I have known david for over 10 years. his service, professionalism and dedication are unparalleled in Park City real estate. I purchased four properties through david, including 3 investment properties and my home in deer valley. I felt david’s skills in finding and negotiating our real estate purchases critical to our success. I would highly recommend david to represent both buyers and sellers in Park City”. Richard R. Shooting Star pictures

• “dave sold a lot for us several years ago that had been listed for several years, in a very short time, Also he has assisted us on several occasions with the sale of my daughter’s home in heber that did not result in any profit for him as an advisor. I’m not sure about the date of the sale of our lot in Silver Creek, Utah. I recommend him highly”. John and Alicia hunt

• “ We had the pleasure of working with david on a recent search and purchase of a condo in Park City. We are so happy we chose david to work with. david gave us his undivided attention, shared his wealth of knowledge of Park City, negotiated a contract we are very happy with and gave us referrals / contact information for insurance, utilities and the like. although we do not reside in park City and did the closing via emails, we felt connected throughout the entire process. In addition to david being available to us with any questions or concerns, Wendy Martin from his office helped with all the closing documents and was also an added bonus! We cannot say enough good things about david; we look forward to working with him again in the future”! mark and laura Clounch

• “ david did an excellent job from start to finish. Always attentive and diligent, he brings great expertise and a friendly and honest approach to his clients. A very pleasant experience. I highly recommend him for any buy, sell or other real estate transaction”. definitely one of the best. dave Barry

• “ david has represented my interests in several real estate transactions for the past several years. his knowledge of the local market conditions has always helped me get the most beneficial transaction for all parties involved. his staff are subject matter experts and are always helpful in making a smooth timely transaction. david’s knowledge, attention to details, and negotiation skills have made complex, cumbersome transactions seem routine. he is also a great person, and is sincere in his desire to please”. Lucas Pol

27 valuable tips you Should know to help Sell your home faster and for more money

1. Understand your reasons for Selling your home. your motivation to sell is the determining factor as to how we will approach the process. It affects everything from where you set your asking price to how much time, money and effort you’re willing to invest in order to prepare your home for sale. For example, if your goal is a quick sale, this would determine one approach. If however you want to maximize your profit, the sales process might take longer, thus determining a different approach.

2. Keep Those Reasons For Selling To Yourself. the reasons you are selling your home will affect the way you negotiate the sale. By keeping this to yourself, you don’t provide prospective buyers with leverage they may be able to use. If, for example, they should learn that you must move quickly, you could be placed at a disadvantage in the negotiation process. When asked, simply say that your housing needs have changed. remember, the reason you are selling is only for you to know.

3. Before Setting a Price, Be Sure To Do Your Homework. When you set your price, you make buyers aware of the absolute maximum they have to pay for your home. As a seller you will want to sell as close to the list price as possible. If you start out by pricing too high you run the risk of not being taken seriously by buyers and their agents. On the other hand, placing your initial price too low can result in selling your home for much less than you were hoping for.

Here are a few tips for setting your home’s sale price:

• If You Live In A Subdivision – If your home is com-prised of similar or identical floor plans built in the same period, simply look at recent sales in your neigh-borhood subdivision to give you a good idea of what your home is worth.

• If You Live In An Older Neighborhood – As neighbor-hoods grow, each home may be different in minor or substantial ways. Because of this, you will probably find that there aren’t many homes truly comparable with your own. in this case you may want to consider seeking a Realtor to help you with the pricing process.

• If You Decide To Sell On Your Own – A good way to establish a value is to look at homes that have sold in your neighborhood within the past six months, including those currently on the market. this is how prospective buyers will assess the worth of your home. Also a trip to City hall can provide you with home sale informa-tion in it’s public records, for most communities.

4. Do Some Home Shopping For Yourself. the best way to learn about your competition and dis-cover what turns buyers off is to check out other open houses. note floor plans, condition, appearance, size of lot, location, and other features. particularly, note both the initial asking price and the final selling price. Remem-ber, if you’re serious about selling your home fast, don’t price it higher than your neighbors.


5. The Pro’s And Con’s Of Getting An Appraisal. Sometimes a good appraisal can be a benefit in market-ing your home. getting an appraisal can be a good way to let prospects know that your home can be financed. however, an appraisal does cost money, has a limited life, and there’s no guarantee you’ll like the figure you hear.

6. What tax assessments really Mean. Some people think that tax assessments are a way of evaluating a home. the difficulty here is that assessments are based on a number of criteria that may not be related to property values, so they may not necessarily reflect your home’s true value.

7. helping you to decide Upon a realtor. according to the national association of realtors, nearly two-thirds of the people surveyed who sold their homes themselves say they wouldn’t do it again. Prima-ry reasons included setting a price, marketing handicaps, liability concerns, and time constraints. When deciding upon a Realtor, consider two or three. Be as wary of quotes that are too low as those that are too high.

All Realtors are not the same! A professional Realtor knows the market and has information on past sales, current listings, a marketing plan, and will provide their background and references. Evaluate each candidate carefully on the basis of his or her experience, qualifica-tions, enthusiasm, and personality. Be sure you choose someone that you trust, and feel confident that they will do a good job on your behalf.

if you choose to sell on your own, you can still talk to a Realtor. Many are more than willing to help do-it-yourselfers with paperwork, contracts, etc. and should problems arise, you now have someone you can readily call upon.

8. be Sure you have room to negotiate. Before setting your asking price, make sure you leave yourself enough room in which to bargain. for ex-ample, set your lowest and highest selling price. then check your priorities to know if you’ll price high to maximize your profit or price closer to market value because you want to sell quickly.

9. appearances Matter! Appearance is so critical that it would be unwise to ig-nore this when selling your home. the look and feel of

your home will generate a greater emotional response than any other factor. Prospective buyers react to what they see, hear, feel, and smell even though you may have priced your home to sell.

10. Invite The Honest Opinions of Others. the biggest mistake you can make at this point is to rely solely on your own judgment. don’t be shy about seeking the honest opinion of others. you need to be objective about your home’s good points as well as bad. fortunately, your realtor will be forthright about discussing what should be done to make your home more marketable.

11. Clean and Fix Everything, Even The Insignificant. Scrub, scour, tidy up, straighten, clean the clutter, and declare war on dust. Repair every squeak, broken light switch, and tiny crack in the bathroom mirror because even these small things can be deal-killers… you’ll never know what can turn buyers off. remember you’re not just competing with other resale homes, but brand new homes as well.

12. allow buyers to visualize themselves in your home. the last thing you want prospective buyers to feel when viewing your home is that they may be intruding into someone else’s life. Avoid clutter such as too many knickknacks, etc. If possible, decorate in neutral colors, like white or beige and place a few carefully chosen items to add warmth and character. you can enhance the attractiveness of your home with a well-placed vase of flowers or potpourri in the bathroom. home décor magazines are great for tips and ideas.

13. deal-Killer – odors Must go! you may not realize it but odd smells like traces of food, pets, and smoking odors can kill deals quickly. If prospective buyers know that you have a dog, or that you smoke, they’ll start smelling odors and seeing stains that don’t even exist, so get rid of all the clues.

14. Disclose All The Defects. Smart sellers are proactive in disclosing all known de-fects to their buyers in writing. this can reduce liability and prevent lawsuits later.

15. the More prospective buyers, the better. When you maximize your home’s marketability, you will most likely attract more than one prospective


buyer. it is much better to have several buyers because they will compete with each other; a single buyer will compete with you.

16. Keep emotions in check during negotiations. Let go of the emotions you’ve invested in your home. Be detached, using a business-like manner in your negotiations. you’ll definitely have an advantage over those getting caught up emotionally in the situation.

17. learn Why the buyer is Motivated. the more you know about a prospective buyer, the better equipped you are to use the negotiation pro-cess to your advantage; thus controlling the pace and duration of the process. As a rule, buyers are looking for the best possible property for the least amount of money, and knowing what is motivating their purchase enables you to negotiate more effectively. For example, does your buyer need to move quickly? Armed with this information, you are better positioned to bargain to your advantage.

18. What The Buyer Can Actually Afford. As soon as possible, try to learn the amount of the mortgage the buyer is qualified to carry and how much his or her down payment is. If their offer is low, ask their Realtor about the buyer’s ability to pay what your home is worth.

19. When the buyer Would like to close. Quite often, when the buyer would like to close is actually when they need to close. knowledge of their deadlines for completing negotiations again creates a negotiating advantage for you.

20. don’t buy a new home Until your current home Sells. Beware of closing on your new home while you are still making mortgage payments on the old one or you might end up becoming a seller who is eager (or even desperate) for the first deal that comes along.

21. Moving Out Before You Sell Puts You At A Disadvan-tage. It’s been proven that it is more difficult to sell a home that is vacant because it becomes forlorn look-ing, forgotten, and no longer an appealing sight. Buyers start getting the message that you have another home and are probably motivated to sell. this could cost you thousands of dollars.

22. deadlines create a Serious disadvantage. don’t try to sell by a certain date. this adds unnec-essary pressure and is a serious disadvantage in the negotiation process.

23. Don’t Take Low Offers Personally. invariably the initial offer is below what both you and the buyer know the property will sell for. don’t be upset…evaluate the offer objectively. Confirm that the offer details an offering price, sufficient deposit, amount of down payment, mortgage amount, a closing date, and any special requests. this simply provides a starting point from which to negotiate.

24. Turn That Low Offer Around. you can counter a low offer, or even an offer that is just below your asking price. this lets the buyer know that the first offer isn’t seen as a serious one. now you’ll be negotiating only with serious buyers.

25. Maybe The Buyer Isn’t Qualified. If you feel an offer is inadequate, now is the time to make sure the buyer is qualified to carry the size of mortgage the deal requires. Inquire how they arrived at their initial figure, and suggest they compare your price to the prices of homes for sale in your neighbor-hood.

26. ensure the contract is complete. to avoid problems, be sure that all the terms, costs, and responsibilities are spelled out in the contract of sale. it should include such items as the date it was made, names of parties involved, address of property being sold, purchase price, where deposit monies will be held, date for loan approval, date and place of closing, type of deed, including any contingencies that remain to be settled, and what personal property is included (or not) in the sale.

27. resist deviating from the contract. For example, if the buyer requests a move in prior to the closing, just say no; you’ve been advised against it. now is not the time to take any chances of the deal falling through.
