Jerry Speight as Outer Banks NC Seller Agent

Why choose Jerry Speight as your Outer Banks NC Real Estate Seller Agent?

Why choose me to represent you as a Seller's Agent? In this market where we are seeing more and more foreclosures and short sales (a sale in which the bank has agreed to accept a price lower than the outstanding value of the loan) the reality is that comparable homes must support your asking price. Otherwise, appraisers cannot satisfy the increasingly stringent requirements banks are placing on buyers. If a property will not appraise there will be no closing. In this market your property must be the best value or a very close 2nd to all other comparable homes on the market to be shown/sold.

I do turn down OVERPRICED listings. You may ask, "Why not just take a listing and put it on the market? It’s not going to cost you anything." WRONG!! It does cost me and my other listing clients plenty. This is a very small beach and my reputation for always having fair-priced listings goes a long way towards getting other agents to show your property. My peers show my listings in part because of my reputation for appropriate pricing. If I compromise that reputation by taking overpriced listings, my clients and I both lose. Of course, I can go to the MLS and do a quick comparable of your home to others based on square footage and location and say "Here’s a good price" and stick a sign down and put it in the MLS. But I do not do that. I use the 3 or 4 closest comps and personally view them. Then I take you with me to view the comparable homes I've selected so you’ll have 100% assurance your property is priced right for the market. In addition to a reputation that works for you...

I offer a great advertising package, which includes: my web site, feature placement on realtor.com, Hometour, local print ads, BD&A listing publication, TV ads.
I give prospective buyers incentive and assurance with a 1-year home warranty through American Home Shield which also covers your home during your listing period. This year already I have saved my listing clients over $4,000 in heat pump repairs alone.
I have been with BD&A Realty and Construction for 8 years. BD&A has great name recognition and reputation and I don’t see any reason to change companies. People know where to find me instead of wondering what real estate company Jerry’s with this year. Many agents have changed companies in the last couple of years in this down market.
With BD&A I have access to a full building department to have questions on your home answered before a prospective buyer asks: Will a pool fit? Can the home be expanded?...
BD&A has the best company advertising package of any Outer Banks real estate company with TV ads, our own Real Estate Listing Publication and company web site.

Call me. Let’s talk and find out whether we are a good match for each other. I may not tell you what you want to hear but I will tell you what a fair market price on your home is and give you the best exposure your home can have and give you the 110% effort that it requires to sell your property. Thanks!!!
