Six Key Reasons You’ll Want to Work With a Real Estate Agent When Pricing Your Home

Whether you know a little bit about the real estate market or you’ve sold a home before, you may be considering pricing and selling your home without the representation of a real estate agent.  Whether it be a financial, medical, or a legal situation, etc, consider the benefits having a professional representing you.

Take a look at the following benefits of a real estate agent:

We Know The Neighborhood

It’s great if you have familiarity with market prices, but knowing a neighborhood is key when it comes to determining price. We will be able to help you arrive at a price that is good for your home and practical for the area you’re selling in.

Is The Market Hot?

The price may be right, but if the market has cooled off, you may have to make a compromise in order to sell it. Instead of trying to arrive at this on your own, we will be able to provide insights into the best strategy.

We’ve Sold In The Area

We have sold properties in your area recently and may be well aware of the price potential. With this added expertise, we will walk the line between your ideal price and what you can get.

Preparing A Plan B

We’ll agree to go with a higher selling pricing if you’re committed to it, but we will also help you make another plan if the price doesn’t work out. It’s disappointing to not get what you’re asking for, but it’s better to have a plan just in case.

Saving On Stress

It’s one thing to decide on the price of your home, but it’s quite another to deal with all the stress if it lingers on the market without an offer. When we assist you in determining your price, we’ll also be there to shoulder some of the stress.

When It Comes To Negotiating

The negotiation following a home offer is make-or-break for selling your home, another great benefit to allowing us to work for you. While we won’t make the decision for you, we will serve as a helpful guide in determining an appropriate counter offer.

Your home may not only be the largest financial investment that you make in a lifetime, it is often emotionally valuable with great sentimentality.  It’s our job to represent all of your best interests, including getting you the highest price possible.  When you’re ready for a no-cost, no obligation consultation, give me a call – J.P. Cook – 602-320-4253.

Tour Your Desert Jewel at ''House in the Rock'', a breathtaking architectural masterpiece nestled within a secluded canyon at Piestewa Peak. Set on a 13,522-square-foot lot with nearly 6,000 square feet of living space, this estate seamlessly blends modern luxury with the rugged beauty of the desert. Designed to appear as if it grew from the surrounding terrain, the home stands as a true fortress—the most expensive build on the mountain, requiring the mountainside to be blasted and reinforced with steel and concrete. Every detail, from the hand-fabricated steelwork to the raw materials, showcases exceptional craftsmanship and durability. A hand-laid curved driveway leads to a secure motor court for five luxury vehicles, setting the tone for the grandeur inside. Ascend to the main living spaces via an Otis Commercial Elevator or steel stairs, arriving at a dramatic pivot door crafted from steel and glass. Inside, you'll be greeted by 180-degree city and sunset views, though the showstopper is the linear wall of fire set against the backlit mountainside. The kitchen is equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, walnut cabinetry, and quartz countertops, while the great room offers a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience with automated glass doors. The second floor houses the owner's suite and two ensuite bedrooms, each with private balconies, as well as a stunning pool terrace carved into the rock, featuring a heated pool and spa. The top level is a true entertainer's dream, with a wet bar, full bathroom, and access to the expansive rooftop Sky Yard, a desert garden perfect for gatherings. Combining impeccable craftsmanship, unparalleled views, and cutting-edge construction, House in the Rock is a one-of-a-kind desert sanctuary built to stand the test of time. This house is not for just anyone, its for those with a keen eye and a taste for the extraordinary.
