Secure Showings: Protecting Your Florida Keys Home While Selling
You have just listed your home for sale with an experience local real estate agent in the Florida Keys. But now you are wondering what is the process for showing your home?
No Lockboxes
In the Florida Keys, real estate agents rarely use lockboxes. It might seem odd to some, but when showing a home in the Florida Keys, both the seller’s agent and the buyer’s agent are present. So, you never have to worry about having strangers in your home. Your agent will be there to protect and serve your best interests.
Showings
All showings are by appointment only, and buyers are pre-screened by their agent or the selling agent beforehand. As the seller’s agent, our role is to assist the buyer’s agent and their clients, helping with any questions they may have about the home. It’s a team effort that ensures a smooth process.
Full-Time Residence Florida Keys Home
We understand that living in your home while it’s on the market can be a bit challenging. Constantly keeping it clean and having people coming through can be a hassle. That’s why we strive to provide our full-time owners with at least 24 hours’ notice before showings. If we have multiple showings in one day, we try to schedule them back-to-back. It’s also a good practice for full-time residents to tuck away personal items, although we’ve never had any issues with buyers.
Vacation Rentals Florida Keys Homes
The Florida Keys boast numerous vacation rentals, and selling a property that’s also being rented can pose some challenges. In most cases, we schedule showings on Saturdays between check-ins, which can extend the time it takes to sell these types of homes.
Vacant Florida Keys Homes
If your home is vacant, rest assured that both agents will still be present during the showing, maintaining a secure process. You have no need to worry.
Open Houses
During an open house, you don’t need to fret either. Your agent will be there, walking prospective buyers through your home, explaining its features, and attending to any guests that arrive. But, as mentioned earlier, it’s still a good idea to put away any personal items.
Feedback
After the showings, your agent will provide you with valuable feedback on what potential buyers thought of your home.
Selling your Florida Keys home is made simple with your experienced agent by your side!
