how to sell to afluent foreign buyers?

Tom Priester answered:
George,

You are correct that Jupiter River Estates is a fantastic community and we have seen some very nice sales over the past 12 months; 2 great sales since the middle of June with 8511 Bristol recently closing escrow at $1,820,000.

In this market there are a number things you need to consider as a seller. The most important is selecting an agent to professionally represent your property on the internet both here and abroad. This is essential as even in this price range about 90% of all buyers are going to research homes on the internet before contacting a Realtor. There are some tremendous sites that will promote your property internationally if you are working with someone who as access to those sites. Your property must paint a picture online that will make prospective buyers want to visit it. Dealing with a large firm who has thousand so of agents is also a plus as the referral market in these companies is amazing.

As you are probably aware, the supply of homes in the $1,000,000+ range is at very high levels and you must be realistic about your goals. A neighborhood like Jupiter River Estates is certainly unique but you must be positioned well among the large number of properties today's buyers have in this range.

Finally, whatever you do; DO IT FAST! The "season" is going to be your best bet of landing a qualified buyer and as the restaurants, streets and beaches will attest; our northern friends have arrived early and in large numbers.

If you are looking to interview potential agents to work closely with you towards the successful sale of your home I would be honored to be on that list. You can easily reach me at 561 308-0175 or via e-mail at tom@tompriester.com. If I can answer any other questions, or offer any additional information, please let me know.

Best,

Tom Priester
