How to Sell Your Home for Top Dollar
We utilize proven systems to maximize the value a buyer is willing to pay for your home.
Key Tips for Selling at the Highest Price:
- 51 Point Marketing plan:We separate your property from the competition by 51 different marketing strategies. We strategically market your property through Facebook, Google Pay Per Clicks, Open Houses, Zillow, Realtor.com and much more!
- High Quality Buyers:We target the highest quality buyers in the market. We want these buyers to make a move on your house and we get your property in front of them!
- Certified Home Program:We have a unique marketing strategy where we certify your home. Utilizing the same approach as carmax, we turn your home into a property a buyer will want and will advertise it as a quality, warranted and valuable asset that any buyer will love!
- Professional Marketing:High-quality photos, virtual tours, and targeted online advertising ensure maximum exposure to all potential buyers.
- Negotiate Smartly:We play hard ball and negotiate on your behalf. Our goal is to get you the price and get you to the closing table. We make this hands off and stress free for our clients.
How to Get a Great Discount When Buying
Buying a home at a great price requires knowledge, strategy, and expert representation. We are here to get you the best deal available and to negotiate this on your behalf.
Ways to Save When Buying a Home:
- Choose your Agent Wisely:Hiring a great agent with the intentions to make offers for you to get you the discount you want is a great approach. We want to look at beautiful homes slightly outside of your budget and get them to come down to your price!
- Understand the Market:Market conditions determine the size of discounts you can expect. In any market you should expect to get a discount when approached correctly.
- Timing:Often getting a great discount has to do with timing. Here is a quick strategy: wait until the seller drops the price, give it 2 weeks to flush out all motivated buyers then go for the discount!
- Contributions:Often it might be in your best interest to keep money in your pocket. There are many ways to get discounts for example the seller could contribute $10,000 towards your closing cost, which will save you 10k in out of pocket cost.
- Consider Off Market Properties:We work with a multitude of sellers. These sellers will often work out a great deal for a buyer we works with saving them time, hassle and commissions!
Phil Schaeffer Real Estate Agent
Let me thank you first and foremost for reading my profile. I have been in real estate for over 15 years and have experience in almost every twist and turn real estate can bring. I am a Florida native and have lived in Tampa Bay, Pinellas County, Hernando County and surrounding areas all of my life with the exception of 4 years where I was in the military and moved back to finish college at the University of South Florida.
I take pride in being an honest and a dependable real estate agent. I am passionate about real estate and that gives me an edge over most agents who do not care, or who do care but don't know what they are doing. Thank you for your time.

His advice and suggestions have been extremely helpful in ensuring our deals were fast, well priced, and trouble free! His knowledge of the market is deep and that knowledge guides his suggestions and advice: from areas to avoid, pricing that works, to staging and advertising that truly supports sales. We highly recommend Phil! He tells you the truth, not necessarily what you want to hear. He helps you understand the mechanics of the market and the transaction so you understand what’s happening, what to expect, and why!
