  If selling your home or condominium is high on your agenda in 2010 here are some important facts you should know.

  Any licensed brokerage is capable of listing your property.  But only one is the undisputed leader in finding buyers for homes on Longboat Key. Michael Saunders & Company.

  The proof is in the performance.  Based on dollar volume sales over the past 12 months—as recorded by the Mid Florida MLS and published by the leading independent real estate tracking firm TRENDGRAPHIX—agents from Michael Saunders & Company bring buyers to Longboat Key property sales nearly twice as often as their next closest competitor.

  As the below bar graphs depict, this phenomenon holds true across all price ranges; but becomes noticeably more dramatic as the price range increases.  For properties $1 million and up, our agents furnish buyers more often than our next four closest competitors combined.

  Before you list your Longboat Key property, contact an agent from Michael Saunders & Company.   Find out how the region’s largest network of top-producing agents, its most heavily-frequented Web site and unparalleled network of international brokerage affiliations will help you succeed in finding a buyer faster.  After all, isn’t that what selling your home is all about?

  The Right Approach to Selling Your Home

  Willy Sutton, a Depression-era bank robber wanted for frequent heists in New York, Miami and New Orleans, was asked by a reporter on the occasion of his capture, “Why do you rob banks?”  Sutton’s answer was as irrefutable as it was obvious. “Because that’s where the money is,” he said.

  The same sort of unassailable logic underscores why so many sellers choose to list their homes with Michael Saunders & Company.  Because that’s where the buyers are.

  It’s a fact.  The worldwide presence and connectivity of Michael Saunders & Company—combined with our agents’ drilled-down knowledge of the local market, its many neighborhoods, lifestyle options and essential pricing tools—attract more buyers to the closing table, by far, than any other company in Southwest Florida.  While this holds true across every price range, the latest research from TRENDGRAPHIX reveals that the higher the price range your home falls into, the more likely an agent from Michael Saunders & Company will furnish its buyer. Here’s why:

  With over 500 of the market’s savviest and best trained agents blanketing the region, your property is networked among all 16 branch offices of Michael Saunders & Company from the moment it is listed with any one of them.  In addition, scores of these agents and their non-competing managers convene weekly to personally review and visit the company’s newest listings.  Together they share educated insights on such key issues as proper pricing, staging techniques to make the home show best, unique marketing opportunities; and other best practices to elevate the property above its competition.  Indeed, what is likely to go down as the region’s highest-priced residential sale of 2009 involved exquisitely-choreographed teamwork between agents representing no less than four of our offices.  The buyers—longtime customers of a team of associates from our Bradenton office—recently closed on the magnificent waterfront estate on Casey Key; but not before they were afforded the advantage of tapping into the expertise of agents from our Main Street, Palmer Ranch and Longboat Key offices who are the acknowledged waterfront experts in the neighborhood where the sale took place.
