"For anyone who is contemplating selling their home, we highly recommend the services of real estate agent Jeff Launiere. In addition to employing a variety of marketing strategies and techniques that went far beyond anything we have experienced in the past, Jeff applied a high level of computer expertise to leverage the marketing opportunities inherent in the Internet, an emphasis we believe is crucial to selling a home in today's market. Jeff was also unique in our experience in keeping us informed about what was going on at the various stages of the marketing and settlement process. We also appreciated Jeff's readiness to discuss matters of concern at any time, either on the phone or in person according to our preference and his always prompt return of our phone calls. Finally, Jeff was a pleasure to work with on a personal level. There is no question that Jeff's efforts played a critical role in the sale of our home."

"I can't express enough how impressed I am with your work. Phyllis and I have both said that we can't see buying a home through anyone but you."
Dr. & Mrs. Kollar Tue Oct 16, 2007

"We decided to interview three agents representing different companies before we would choose who would represent us. During our interviews, one of those agents stood out so clearly from the others that our decision was extremely easy Jeff Launiere would be our agent. We would like to say how much we HIGHLY recommend Jeff Launiere. If you want to sell your house and enjoy outstanding customer service during the process, there is no one else to call but Jeff !!!! The result of Jeffs fantastic advertising efforts was that we had nearly thirty (30) showings on our home while it was listed in a market where other sellers were begging for one. Equally as impressive as his advertising efforts, was Jeffs dedication to customer service. He clearly explained all aspects of the process to us as we went through each step beginning the day we signed our contract to have him represent us and not ending until we had signed the papers at closing."

I bought a home in Ruskin, FL and have recently received a new job offer in another state. The home was built in 2007 and only lived in by my family

Asked a few hours ago by Rochelle06 - Home Selling in Ruskin - 4 answers

Jeff Launiere, P.A., e-PRO answered:

Rochelle, it is impossible to suggest what a good price is based on the information provided. A Realtor must perform a CMA or at the very least know the subdivision very well to suggest a good asking price and with the information you have given us we have no way of knowing what a good price is. Prices have declined since 2007 however numbers have to be run to see what the comparable sales show. Are there a large number of short sales and foreclosures in your neighborhood? How much have home prices declined in your neighborhood since you bought the home. Hopefully the Realtor has based the $161,000 on that. Did the Realtor show you all the comps in the area? When you saw them did the price make sense? If not then maybe you need a second opinion from another Realtor or you can always pay for an appraisal to confirm the price or to find a better price. Make sure whichever Realtor you choose can show you why that price is right.

Also you are the boss and determine the price you want to ask. The Realtor can only advise you on what the comps show, but it is ultimately your decision. With that said, if you decide to ask more than a Realtor can realistically sell the home for, most professional Realtors will decline to take your listing. That is because they have to spend money and time to market your home. They only get paid when the home sells, so a good Realtor will not want to spend money if the home is overpriced.

My recommendation is to interview two to three agents, go over their CMA and comps with them and determine which agent you want to work with, but do not just choosed the Realtor who gives the highest price.

If I can assist you, feel free to contact me.
