Have you ever hired someone you thought would be great initially and quickly realized you made a huge mistake? Yeah. Me too. Hiring the right person to represent you in selling your horse property is not an easy decision. You don't want to be stuck with someone you don't like or who doesn't understand you or your situation, right?
I mean, if it's a horse property, how much do they know about horse properties? Do they understand flood irrigation and how much sand you had to bring into that arena? Do they know County Islands and all that goes with it? If you are interviewing, it might be a good idea to ask these questions.
The average agent will most likely come in with comps and give you a low number. They don't see the value in all that land. I hear it all the time. I have had sellers for whom I got $125,000 more than any other agent. They even told them they could get it, and they interviewed five other agents. Do you think the agent doesn't make that much of a difference? My clients know I make a difference.
I had another Gilbert horse property owner. A local "horse property expert" told them she could get them $750,000. I got them $1.3 million. Do you still think your agent doesn't matter? My clients know the agent matters! Don't settle for that.
I have been selling these types of properties since 2004. I have created a proven system, The Straight Shooter Method, to support horse property owners just like you. This is a system that all of our agents are trained on, and it simply works. It creates a consistent, low-drama, high-touch experience and helps you get more money for your property. It can't get any better than that now, can it?
Equine properties take exceptional marketing, special pricing, and a unique buyer. That buyer may not even live in Arizona. If you don't have a solid, proven marketing plan, how do you find them?
There is also a type of agent that tells you what they can't do. You will never hear that from me. I promise. I will educate and guide you to make informed decisions. If you decide you want to do something and I don't think it's a great idea, I will tell you and explain why — if you still want to proceed, you are the boss.
