sie. She Impressed me with her skills, frequent updates, knowledge, and resources. She did an awe-

some job selling my last two proper�es and I have recommended her to all my associates that are in

the market to buy or sell.

2. Pricing 2. Pricing 2. Pricing 2. Pricing

Pricing is likely your biggest concern in selling your home. You are probably wondering, “How will you

determine my suggested lis�ng price?” This is a great ques�on as pricing your home correctly is absolutely

necessary in order to sell.

I will extensively research homes comparable to yours that are currently on the market, pending or have

recently sold. I also review lis�ngs that expired or were cancelled prior to selling. I will use this informa�on

to prepare a Compara�ve Market Analysis (CMA). CMA prepara�on is something you can expect most

agents to do for you. While considering comparable sales is extremely important, it is necessary to consider

more than historical data to determine an accurate lis�ng price. It is also essen�al to consider current

market condi�ons as it is likely that the market has changed since other homes have sold.

In addi�on to considering recent sales I:

• Determine your odds of selling

• Assess the number of lis�ngs that are ac�ve on the market vs. the number of lis�ngs that are

pending. This enables me to determine market ra�os and iden�fy whether we are currently in a buy-

er’s market, balanced market, or seller’s market. This is cri�cal informa�on that has a significant im-

pact on the pricing of your home. If the data indicates the market is to the sellers advantage, you

may opt to price your home fairly aggressively. Conversely, if we are in the midst of a buyer’s market,

it will be necessary to price your home more compe��vely.

• Monitor compe�ng lis�ngs. It is important for us to be aware of the compe��on, along with price

adjustments and other changes applied to compe�ng homes.

• Review the number of days homes are spending on the market. Comparing your �meframe to sell

with the average number of days homes are on the market may impact your lis�ng price. For

example, say you are reloca�ng to a different state for employment in 60 days, yet the average

market �me for homes is current 180 days. This informa�on may lead you to apply a more

compe��ve asking price to your home than you would if the average market �me was 30 days.

• Track absorp�on rates to determine how many months of inventory are currently on the market.

• Note the average price per square foot for recently sold homes.

• Calculate original list prices vs. sales prices and final list prices, for homes that have had price

reduc�ons, vs. sales prices to iden�fy averages and trends.

• Consider market apprecia�on rates

• Monitor buying pa;erns to see if there are seasonal trends in sales of similar homes

• Review assessed values vs. the sales prices of recently sold comparable homes to determine the

ra�os. This enables me to iden�fy if there are any consistent current market trends between

assessed values and sales prices.

Your pricing strategy will have a direct correla�on with whether or not your home will sell and the

corresponding �meframe. I will educate you about current market trends and condi�ons and will help you

determine a list price that will a;ract buyers and provide the greatest possible return on your investment.

Ul�mately, my research and analysis yields data that is necessary to provide you a compe��ve posi�on in the

marketplace.

It is important to consider your odds of selling are highest when your home

is new on the market. The reason for this is your home will receive the most

interest and excitement from agents and poten�al buyers when it first

enters the market. As a result, it is cri�cal to price your home accurately

from the start. Of course too low of a list price would not allow you to

realize the highest net possible on your sale. On the other hand, an

excessive lis�ng price will not a;ract agents or buyers and your home will

begin to accumulate days on the market.

An extended market �me is counter-produc�ve as sta�s�cs from the

Mul�ple Lis�ng Service demonstrate a correla�on between the

number of days homes spend on the market and price reduc�ons. At

the same �me, the costs of keeping the home, such as property tax-

es, u�lity expenses, and interest on the mortgage, con�nue to accu-

mulate. An extended market �me can also lead poten�al buyers to

assume there is something is wrong with your home and they may

decide to forgo it altogether. As a result, it is more strategic and cost

effec�ve to have a compe��ve lis�ng price from day the “For Sale”

sign goes up rather than “tes�ng the market.”

Working with Jessie was the best experience I have had in the real estate world! I have bought and sold four

other homes the past. The difference in hiring Jessie as my agent was that at every turn of the buying process,

she was always a step ahead of anything that could slow down the process. She does her research, knows the

market and truly listens to what the buyer wants. Jessie goes above and beyond to make buying a home a

stress free experience. She is a 10 in my book! I will refer Jessie to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

3. Technology and Marketing3. Technology and Marketing3. Technology and Marketing3. Technology and Marketing Technology and marke�ng are cri�cal components in selling your home. Technology has changed everything,

including selling real estate. I am technologically savvy and I understand trends in technological advances and

the impact technology has had on real estate marke�ng. A strong lis�ng presenta�on and internet presence are

cri�cal to a successful marke�ng campaign.

I take great pride in my marke�ng campaign. I hired a company that specializes exclusively in real estate

marke�ng to design and create customized marke�ng materials. My marke�ng campaign provides a

professional presenta�on for homes through a variety of marke�ng and technological avenues.

I will create an appealing presenta�on for your home. My first step is to make sure your home is ready to be

show-cased. The way you live in your home and the way we market and sell your house are two different

things! I will walk-through your home and advise you if I have any recommenda�ons for improvement.

It is impera�ve to de-clu;er, de-personalize and detail your home, as you would a car for sale. First impressions

are cri�cal and buyers need to be able to mentally move their own belongings in. Buyers who can’t mentally

move in move on. Buyers purchase homes based on price and emo�on, so you need to set the stage for them to

fall in love! The more in love a buyer falls, the more they will be willing to pay for your home! Preparing your

home appropriately is necessary to sell your home and can increase your final sale price!

Once your home is market-ready I will take high quality photos and succinctly ar�culate marke�ng remarks to

promote your property. A?er crea�ng an a;rac�ve and appealing presenta�on, I will focus on web-based

marke�ng. It is extremely important that your lis�ng has a strong internet presence as almost all buyers

(approximately 96%) search online before physically going to look at property.

Most importantly, I will list your home on the Northwest Mul�ple Lis�ng Service (NWMLS). It is essen�al your

home is listed on the NWMLS because every real estate company’s website hosts lis�ngs from the NWMLS. As a

result, your lis�ng will be available for viewing on www.windermere.com, www.remax.com,

www.johnlsco;.com, etc approximately 24 hours a?er we submit your lis�ng to the MLS.

The majority of serious buyers are working with a real estate professional. Real estate agents monitor new

lis�ngs very closely and will send their clients lis�ngs directly from the NWMLS. Many people enjoy searching

for homes online as well. The most popular websites amongst online shoppers belong to Windermere, RE/MAX,

Redfin and John L. Sco;. However, I will adver�se your home on several other websites as well.

Aside from the NWMLS and major real estate company’s websites, I have found the site that receives the most

ac�vity from poten�al buyers is Realtor.com. Realtor.com reaches buyers na�onally and interna�onally and

receives nearly 6 million unique visitors each month. Realtor.com has the most updated data online with

updates every 15 minute from major MLS’ across the country. Many of the websites listed above receive

minimal ac�vity in comparison to the NWMLS and the leading real estate company’s websites. However, I s�ll

adver�se on numerous websites because I believe the more exposure, the be;er!

Your lis�ng will also be adver�sed on my website, www.JessieGrandpre.com. I have invested in a custom

website, rather than a template site, because custom sites rank higher with Google, thus increasing the visibility

of your home. My powerful and informa�ve website gets good traffic as it has all of the features poten�al

buyers need to make their search process simple and efficient.

I am also ac�ve in several social networking websites. My online ac�vity is beneficial for you for a couple of

reasons. First, the more ac�vity I generate on the internet, the higher my website will rank, which provides

greater exposure for your lis�ng. In addi�on, buyers who are searching for real estate online are likely to come

across my website and social networking sites. Poten�al buyers learn that I am a local real estate expert and in

some cases will contact me and subsequently will become a part of my database. This puts me in a stronger

posi�on to funnel poten�al buyers to your lis�ng. In summary, my marke�ng campaign showcases your home through professional materials and numerous tech-

nological avenues. As a result, your home will receive op�mal exposure and a compe��ve edge in the market.

4. Broker’s Open and Open Houses 4. Broker’s Open and Open Houses 4. Broker’s Open and Open Houses 4. Broker’s Open and Open Houses

Broker’s Opens present an opportunity for agents to preview your home. The

number of agents who turnout varies by area, but for the most part a;endance has been minimal in the last

couple of years. I s�ll like to hold a Broker’s Open to encourage agents to preview your home and to provide

addi�onal exposure for your lis�ng on the NWMLS.

Broker’s Open:

Open Houses: Open houses provide the opportunity for the public to preview your home. The reality is that 96% of buyer’s

look at homes online. Driving around looking for open houses is not as popular these days as it has been in the

past, especially with the surge in gas prices. The internet provides all of the informa�on people want, plus

more, elimina�ng the need for buyers to randomly look at homes hoping they meet their specific criteria.

With the excep�on of new construc�on communi�es, most open houses yield li;le traffic. The majority of

people who a;end open houses are neighbors or folks who enjoy looking at real estate as a pas�me. If people

actually looking to buy a home a;end an open house, the probability of that home being perfect for them is

extremely low. It is also possible that open house a;endees will not qualify for financing to purchase a home.

It is important to consider the safety concerns involved with open houses. There have been many “incidents”

at open houses recently resul�ng in the NWMLS, real estate brokers as well as police departments advising

sellers and agents to assess the pros and cons of holding open houses. Agents have been harassed, robbed and

even murdered at open houses. There are a handful of agents at my office who will not hold open houses

because of safety concerns and bad experiences. People with ill-inten�ons have posed as poten�al buyers to

case homes while they were open and returned later to burglarize the home. Jewelry, prescrip�on drugs and

even video games amongst other items have been stolen during open houses. Of course, it is highly unlikely

that your open house would lead to misfortune. However, it is necessary for you to be aware of the risks

affiliated with opening your home up to the public.

Published agent feedback in response to the ques�on, “Do open houses a;ract more buyers?” varies

significantly. Posi�ve comments include, “open houses can generate ac�vity and interest in a home that would-

n’t have been generated otherwise” and “homes will not sell without showings. Open houses provide another

opportunity to get poten�al buyers in the door.” The majority of the posi�ve responses to this ques�on em-

phasized that open house are a good source of lead genera�on for agents, rather than providing a selling ad-

vantage for homeowners.

There is also a significant amount of nega�ve feedback in response to the effec�veness of open houses.

Agent comments included, “They are ineffec�ve. They draw very few serious buyers and lots of curiosity

seekers. Especially nosy neighbors who always wondered what your house might look like from the inside!”

Another agent commented that he only does open houses to “show sweat equity to the seller.” A broker

responded, “With all of the electronic marke�ng vehicles available, open houses are a bit of an an�quated

marke�ng technique, not to men�on the poten�al inconvenience or endangerment to the seller. There can

also be safety issues and iden�ty the? considera�ons.” A 30 year veteran to the business said, “I really don't

believe open houses a;ract more buyers. They are a thing of the past. Serious buyers use the Internet and

seasoned Realtors. The cost of gas is very likely keeping more people at their computers as well.”

In most cases, if your home is not located in a remote area, I am willing to hold your home open as there a

�ny frac�on of homes that sell as a result of an open house. However, it is important that you have realis�c

expecta�ons for open houses and understand the possible safety concerns. Let me know what your

preferences are about holding your home open to the public.

During the course of my sale, it became evident that Jessie is well-respected by her peers in the

real estate industry. I was told by four people involved in my sale that I had one of the best agents

represen�ng me. Jessie’s communica�on style engaged easily with all par�es involved. It was

evident that everyone trusted her knowledge of the sale and her commitment to closing the deal.

5. Communication5. Communication5. Communication5. Communication

What are your communica�on preferences? How o?en do you want to hear

from me? What is your preferred method of communica�on? Telephone?

Email? Text? Many people only want to hear from me when there is

something to report. You may prefer more or less communica�on. Please let

me know what you prefer and I will respond accordingly.

I will supply feedback reports a?er the Broker’s Open and any open houses. In

addi�on, each �me an agent shows your home I will contact the agent for

feedback. I will pass the comments and informa�on along to you verbally or in

the form of a feedback report. I will also periodically supply you with reports

informing you how many agents have viewed your lis�ngs on the MLS and how

many consumers have viewed your lis�ng on Windermere, Realtor.com,

Zillow.com and other websites that allow us to track online ac�vity.

A?er you accept an offer on your home there will be several subsequent steps

and �melines involved with the sale. I will make you a calendar of the

�melines involved and will assist you with every step.

A/er I accepted an offer, Jessie supplied me

with an in-depth schedule of events that need-

ed to take place between the acceptance and

the closing. The calendar was extremely useful

in guiding me as to when I needed to have pa-

perwork ready and decisions made. Jessie

placed an emphasis on making sure I was com-

fortable and informed throughout the en�re

transac�on.

~Felice

Selling a home is more complicated than just finding a buyer.

There are many steps to take between pending and closing.

6. Commission6. Commission6. Commission6. Commission Tradi�onally, sellers pay 6% in commissions - 3% to the seller's agent and 3% to the buyer's agent. However,

commission amounts aren't cast in stone. Commission rates can fluctuate depending on the situa�on and the

property. For example, commissions affiliated with vacant land sales are o?en structured differently than

commissions paid on residen�al sales. Commission on a $2,000,000 home may vary from a $200,000 home. I

am happy to discuss the costs and the benefits of working with me.

The commission structure an agent has with his or her brokerage will range from one real estate office to the

next. Some agents pay a monthly “desk fee” to the broker, which can exceed $1500 per month, and then

keep the majority of the commission earned. Other agents are on a commission “split” with their brokerage,

which means they have an agreement on the percent of the commission the agent and brokerage will

receive. Some agents retain as li;le as 28% of the commission. However, the most common commission

structure is that the agent and the brokerage split the commission 50/50.

Consider that out of the 25% of the original commission amount that each agent typically receives, the agent

will s�ll have to pay income tax, Realtor and MLS fees, adver�sing costs and other miscellaneous costs

including signs and installa�on, lockboxes, copies, website expenses, gas, cell phone, etc. The remaining

balance will be the agent’s compensa�on for their �me, exper�se and effort involved in selling your home.

8. About Me8. About Me8. About Me8. About Me I graduated from Willame;e University then entered the work force at a corporate law firm in Sea;le. I

subsequently taught English in Japan and Special Educa�on in Sea;le and traveled around the world. I have

worked, studied in and traveled to nearly 50 countries. Traversing the world has demonstrated to me how

fortunate I am to live and work in the Pacific Northwest.

In 2006 I teamed up with my mom, Sally Boge, who was a very successful real estate broker. Sally was a great

mentor and I quickly learned all of the intricacies involved with helping people buy and sell real estate. Sally

and I made a powerful team for several years. Sally re�red in 2011, knowing our clients are in excellent hands.

I am happily married to a great man, Ted, and I have a precious Boston Terrier named Max. I love travelling,

playing tennis and exercising, reading, spending �me with friends and family, dogs, happy hours, and a;ending

classes on various topics related to real estate (seriously!).

I thoroughly enjoy and excel at the many different components involved with being a successful realtor:

marke�ng, nego�a�ng, pricing, real estate contracts and legal aspects, market and trend analysis, staging,

matching people with homes and proper�es, communica�ng with the numerous par�es involved with a sale

and problem solving. Working as a real estate broker is a great match for my skill set, energy level and

personality. I can’t think of anything I’d rather do than represent home buyers and sellers!

7. Costs Affiliated With Selling7. Costs Affiliated With Selling7. Costs Affiliated With Selling7. Costs Affiliated With Selling In addi�on to paying real estate commissions, Sellers typically pay the following costs from their proceeds at

closing:

•Excise tax

•One-half of �tle and escrow fees

•Document prepara�on, recording and reconveyance fees

•Pro-rated taxes from the tax due-date to date of closing

•Any costs involved with paying off the loan

•Any other costs agreed to in the Purchase and Sale Agreement, such as the buyer’s closing costs

There may be addi�onal costs as well. Sellers will receive the prorated por�on of pre-paid property taxes,

prorated mortgage interest from payments made during the current month and a fuel rebate for oil or propane

remaining in storage tank (if applicable). Prior to closing the escrow officer will generate an Es�mated

Se;lement Statement itemizing all of the costs affiliated with selling.

Working with Jessie to purchase my first home was a pleasure. She was pa�ent and understanding of

my home requirements. We must have looked at 30+ houses that were with-in my categories before I

made a decision. I never felt pressured to buy a specific house or rushed to make a decision. Because I

was a first �me home buyer, it was great to have Jessie there to help me understand the buying process.

She is very knowledgeable and gave me many op�ons to work with. There is no doubt in my mind that I

would work with Jessie again when I decide to sell and/or purchase a new home. I have o/en

recommended Jessie to my friends. The service Jessie provides is very professional and I felt very

comfortable working with her.

10. Additional Benefits of Working With Me10. Additional Benefits of Working With Me10. Additional Benefits of Working With Me10. Additional Benefits of Working With Me 10.1 Cancellation Guarantee One ques�on I receive regularly is, “What if I need to cancel my lis�ng?” No problem! Just give me 24 hours. I

have heard many complaints about agents refusing to cancel lis�ngs or charging exorbitant fees prior to

releasing the lis�ng. Perhaps you have heard stories as well. I guarantee to cancel your lis�ng at any �me,

prior to accep�ng an offer to purchase your home, if you feel I have not done my job as outlined in the lis�ng

agreement, or if your circumstances change. I want you to work with me because I have earned your trust,

respect and business—not because you are contractually obligated to work with me!

I want and encourage an open line of communica�on. If I do not meet your expecta�ons please tell me! I

need to know your preferences and opinions and appreciate the opportunity to discuss any frustra�ons you

experience. I am confident I will meet, or exceed, all of your expecta�ons. However, if you are unhappy with

my services and we are unable to work out the differences, I will respecUully cancel your lis�ng.

I realize life is full of unexpected events that could cause you to want to stay in your home. Or perhaps you’ll

decide you want to u�lize your home as a rental. If something comes up and you prefer to cancel your lis�ng,

I will certainly accommodate your request and you will not be required to pay any cancella�on fees. I

appreciate your business and hope that if you choose to list your home in the future, or if you have friends or

family who could benefit from my services, you will call me again.

declining market. We are very impressed with you and your team, from the lender to home inspector and

even your color coordinator and window washer. At a �me when honesty and trust is not always easy to

come by, we wanted you to know how much we appreciate what you have done for us. We are so happy we

put our trust in you because we would not be in our dream home on a lake today without you! Thank you for

all of your help in making our real estate dreams come true!

~Ted and Debbie

Jessie is an amazing Realtor. We knew we would be well taken care of from Jessie’s high level of

professionalism at our first mee�ng. Jessie was extremely knowledgeable, efficient and thorough. Jessie’s

ability to effec�vely communicate and personable demeanor made both selling our home and purchasing a

new one a fun, pleasant experience. Jessie handled the most stressful events in our life with ease and care

and looked out for our best interest throughout our transac�ons. We were amazed that she was always on

the go and available, making sure we were being well taken care of. We appreciated the endless amount of

resources Jessie provided. We can only hope to work with Jessie again in the future. She is the only real

estate agent in the greater Sea<le area that we entrust with our family and friends.

~Steve and Nicole

Overall, Jessie provided a smooth and enjoyable home-selling experience. Her love of real estate was

consistently demonstrated in her knowledge of the market, her a<en�on to detail throughout the

transac�on, and her commitment in making sure my needs were met and addressed at all �mes. I will

absolutely hire Jessie to represent me in all of my future real estate transac�ons.

~Skippy

We were impressed with Jessie’s knowledge of the real estate market and her professionalism. We asked Jes-

sie to become our real estate representa�ve. In less than a few months she sold our condo and helped us

with the purchase of our new home. Jessie is a skillful adver�ser, friendly, enthusias�c and responsive. We

are now very happy to be living in “The Meadows.” Thank you Jessie!

~ Salvador and RoseMarie

Jessie is absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond what she needed to do. I had unsuccessful

rela�onships with a few real estate agents before finding Jessie and now I can say that I found a real estate

agent for life!

~Nick

Jessie was great to work with and always quick to respond if we had a ques�on or wanted to look at a house.

She even went above and beyond a/er we closed to make sure that our house was perfect for moving in.

We enjoyed working with Jessie because she is very vested in puAng her clients in a house that is exactly what

they want and also a good investment for their future.

This was my first experience buying a house. I know that when I go to sell it and buy a different house, I would

be happy to work with Jessie again.

~Deb

Right from the start, we found Jessie to be easy to talk to and knowledgeable of the market and area. We

have never met a real estate agent who is such a hard worker! We found that during the transac�on process,

as always, in real estate, poten�al problems would arise, but Jessie quickly and professionally found a

solu�on. She was only a phone call away from calming the emergency at hand. We would not hesitate in

recommending Jessie to anyone who has real estate needs. We appreciate her hard work and are thankful for

everything she did for us.

~Don & Sally

Jessie is highly professional, yet friendly and appropriate in her work and we were very sa�sfied with her

services. Jessie understood and was very responsive to our needs. She is a good listener, addressed our

concerns and was almost immediately available to us. This was very important to us because we did not live

locally. We were pleased as Jessie was Johnny-on-the-Spot and we received same day answers! We never

doubted that Jessie knew the market. Whenever a problem arose, she quickly provided a solu�on. End of

problem!

Jessie is enthusias�c about her role as a realtor and seems to really enjoy helping her client. It felt to us as

though Jessie wanted much more than the commission, she really wanted us to be happy. We would highly

recommend Jessie to anyone who needs a realtor.

~Doug & Bonnie

Jessie was there for me. She offered professional wisdom and was caring as she pointed me in the right

direc�on toward the sale of my house and the purchase of another. I appreciate that Jessie was respecDul of

my circumstances as she led me through both processes, and all the paperwork! I certainly would/will call on

Jessie again. I know my family will be in contact with Jessie, if their needs arise. Her exper�se proved itself to

the family and I am thankful for everything Jessie did for me.

Preparing your home appropriately is important in order to sell quickly for the best possible price. Here are

some �ps to help you get started:

• Oil door hinges, �ghten door knobs

• Have carpets professionally cleaned, or replaced if damaged

• Repair dripping faucets and leaky toilets

• Replace all burned out light bulbs

• Repair defec�ve light switches

• Get rid of clu;er both inside and out

• Cut and edge grass

• Trim hedges and weed gardens

• Paint, fix or wash railings, steps, storm windows, screens and doors

• Clean out the gu;ers

• Wash the windows

• Tidy up the garage

• Paint, wash and fix garage doors and windows

Helpful �ps for showing your home:

• Keep pets out of the house. Either take them with you or keep them penned in the yard or garage

• Put away items in the yard like garden tools, bicycles and toys

• Make sure your home is well lit

• Remove clu;er from tables and shelves. Less clu;er creates the illusion of a larger space

• Add a ground up lemon to the garbage disposal to give the kitchen a fresh smell

• Open shades and curtains to let in light

• Light a fire in the fireplace to create a comfortable ambiance
