My name is Chris Iverson and we are moving from the beautiful Ogden Valley. I work for the government and I got a reassignment and promotion.

Yep, and I am Barb Iverson. We hired Ann and Joel Zieve to be our realtor because I saw their houses being sold within 3 months and I thought, wow that’s great, because I’ve seen a lot of houses stay on the market here in the valley. It is always better to get your real estate transaction completed in a timely fashion.

The best part about the marketing plan: the first image we saw was the aerial footage. The realization that how important the aerial view of the residence is for a successful sale and when we first saw the video that was pretty phenomenal.

Yeah, I agree I think the drone footage I think was wonderful as well as Ann’s video. I thought that was great and the way everything was put together, and presented, and the professional photos. I thought all of that added up to being an excellent marketing tool.

We really appreciated Ann’s time where she came in and she went from room to room and helped us – what we needed to do to present it for showing. She really helped us present the house in a very marketable fashion. We were a little hesitant being mid-winter, boy were we surprised! We put it on the market on Thursday and by Sunday night, 3 days after, we had 5 offers.

I think we had 6 total.

So we were ready to work one on one with the highest offer and not counter with a single offer, but with the highest, we asked them what is their best and highest offer.

It was an amazing experience; I had never done anything like that before.

And the folks that wanted the property the worst, they countered with $11,000 over our asking price and we were shocked again!

You said you came from an investment background and I think that really has helped with the negotiating and the knowledge of marketing.
