“Fit to Sell” Helps Meet Sellers’ Expectations

Recent research by RE/MAX shows that real estate agents in general, are not meeting sellers’ expectations in one of the top drivers of agent value, preparing the home for sale. In response RE/MAX has developed the exclusive Fit To Sell program. This package will save you the time of walking through the vendor’s home and coaching the owner on how to prepare their home to sell. The advice they need – from clearing the clutter, to eliminating pet odors – is in the DVD.
