\n\tOur company is a multifaceted business that operates with you, the customer, at the forefront of our day-to-day operations. We are well known and respected in the community and our philosophies are based on both honesty and integrity. As a client centered business, you will receive personal service and be backed by a reputable company.\n
\n\n\n\tWe implement multi-level marketing strategies that benefit our clients with every transaction. Our real estate agents have extensive access to information about the communities in which they deal. This includes, but is not limited to: schools, populations, recreation, entertainment, home values, growth potential and surrounding areas. Many agents live in the areas we serve and therefore can more accurately overcome potential obstacles and focus on the unique needs of our clients.\n
\n\n\n\tOur commercial division is well-equipped to provide today's growing number of real estate investors with opportunities for both income and commercial properties.\n
\n\n\n\tThe real estate market is always changing and as a result, our agents regularly attend training sessions and events to further their knowledge and be sure that they are focusing on current conditions that affect today's buyers and sellers. This type of training is imperative if we are to be successful in obtaining top dollar on home sales. Our goal is to make sure that we satisfy the special needs of all of our clients and at the same time make the process and transactions go as smoothly as possible.\n
\n\n\n\tOur company is dedicated to maintaining a professional, trustworthy relationship with our clients. One way this can be seen is through this Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) which you hold in your hand. This CMA compiles the most current and accurate information relevant to the sale of your home. Seeing that this is perhaps your most valuable asset, it is imperative that you be equipped with the most complete information possible related to the pricing and marketing of your home.\n
\n\nThe CMA is a side-by-side comparison of homes for sale and homes that have recently sold in the same neighborhood and price range. This information is further sorted by data such as type of home, number of bedrooms, number of baths, lot size, neighborhood, property condition and features, and many other factors. The purpose is to show estimated market value, based on what other buyers and sellers have determined through past sales, pending sales and homes recently put on the market.
\nCMAs are generated by using property information from your real estate agent's multiple listing service (MLS). The MLS is available to licensed members only, including brokers, salespeople, and appraisers, who pay dues to gain access to the service's public and proprietary data, including tax roll information, sold transactions, and listings input by all cooperating MLS members. Listing agents generate CMAs for their sellers, and buyer's agents create them for their buyers so both sides know what current market conditions are for the homes they're interested in comparing.
\nThe CMA is a here-and-now snapshot of the market, based on the most recent data available, but it can instantly be rendered obsolete by a new listing, or a change of status in a home with the same criteria. Why? The market is constantly changing - new listings, pending sales, closed sales, price reductions, and expired listings.
\nCMAs can vary widely, depending on the knowledge and skill of the person creating the CMA as well as the number and type of data fields that are chosen. That means some features may not be included.
\nAs informative as the CMA is, it should only be used as a tool and should not substitute for your real estate professional's knowledge and advice.
\nPricing a home for sale is as much art as science, but there are a few truisms that never change.
\nFair market value is what a willing buyer and a willing seller agree by contract is a fair price for the home. Values can be impacted by a wide range of reasons, but the two biggest are location and condition. Generally, fair market value can be estimated by considering the comparables - other similar homes that have sold or are currently for sale in the same area.
\n\tSellers often view their homes as special, which tempts them to put a higher price on it, believing they can always come down later, but that's a serious mistake.
\n\tOverpricing prevents the very buyers who are eligible to buy the home from ever seeing it. Most buyers shop by price range and look for the best value in that range.
\nYour best chance of selling your home is in the first two weeks of marketing. Your home is fresh and exciting to buyers and to their agents.
\n\tWith a sign in the yard, full description and photos in the local Multiple Listing Service, distribution across the Internet, open houses, broker's caravan, ads, and email blasts to your listing agent's buyers, your home will get the greatest flurry of attention and interest in the first two weeks.
\n\tIf you don't get many showings or offers, you've probably overpriced your home, and it's not comparing well to the competition. Since you can't change the location, you'll have to either improve the home's condition or lower the price.
\n\tConsult with your agent and ask for feedback. Perhaps you can do a little more to spruce up your home's curb appeal, or perhaps stage the interior to better advantage.
\n\tThe market can always change its mind and give your home another chance, but by then you've lost precious time and perhaps allowed a stigma to cloud your home's value.
\n\tIntelligent pricing isn't about getting the most for your home - it's about getting your home sold quickly at fair market value.
\nHere's a list of my happy customers!

\"Josh has been a pleasure to work with! He is very communicative and stays on top of his transaction from the beginning to the end! He also really advocates for his client, which is a must! I would definitely recommend him as an agent!\"
\n- Yondi Morris, Partner, KMReddick Law Group

\"Joshua Mercer was truly Amazing!!!!!!!!!! He made my first multi-unit buying experience so smooth. He is very detailed and always knows the answers to my questions. He made sure I was aware of everything about each multi-unit that was viewed and gave his honest opinion about them, which was very helpful to me since this is my first property purchase. When I eventually found the multi-unit that I wanted, he guided me throughout the whole process and updated me on everything until closing. Mr. Mercer is super friendly, sweet, and knowledgeable at what he does. I will highly recommend him to anyone looking for a single-family home or a multi-unit. Thank you so much for making this experience unforgettable.\"

\"Josh was fantastic in helping me purchase my commercial Investment property. His follow up and communication is A1. I will be using him again in the near future.\"
\n\n
\"Working with Josh has been great. He got my property photographed and listed quickly. We had offers the first weekend. And we sold it above asking price. What more could you ask for!?\"
\n- Peter Spiro- Maurice Maurrain
\n\"When my wife and I decided to sell our house we wanted to have a listing agent who truly understood our market and was willing to truly work hard to drive interest and connect with serious buyers. I've known Josh my whole life and the two traits that stand out about him are his ability to connect with people and his impeccable work ethic. I knew Josh would truly understand the market and the needs of a seller because he's spent such a great deal of his real estate career as an investor. All these attributes not only made us comfortable to select him as a Seller's agent, but contributed to the overall success of the transaction. We received multiple offers and were under contract during a period in which real estate sales are the slowest in the year. Josh has no ego, and was always willing to get feedback every step of the way.\"
\n- Chris Vaughn
\nJosh Mercer is an exceptional agent and he supported me every step of the way. His expertise, strong communication skills, and insightful negotiation abilities made the purchase of my first investment property a successful experience. Josh has a deep network of professional contacts and was able to collaborate effectively with the numerous stakeholders involved in the deal (inspector, mortgage broker, attorney, Seller's representatives). I look forward to building a vast property portfolio and working with Josh in the near future! \"
\n- Azurii Collier

\n- Dante Royster, Epic Mortgage

\nTo begin that process we need to complete the listing agreement paperwork. This will let me start the process of marketing and selling your home, but it also serves to protect you and your assets. Here's an overview of the information I will need to begin the process of selling your home. I'm going to start off with the top 5 pieces of information we capture in the listing agreement.
\n\nHere is some other important information we will also capture in the listing agreement.
\n\nThere may be other information that is tied to state or local regulations but I will make sure to go over these while we are completing the paperwork.
