Drake Realty has vast experience in selling homes throughout the Atlanta area. We are familiar with the market and its trends. Our goal is to get top price for every listing we have. We are successful with this goal because of the way we approach our listings.

We want, you, the seller, to get the most money possible for your property. This does not happen by just guessing. It takes good research and analysis to determine the correct listing price which ensures a timely sale.

We will do a thorough market analysis of your property prior to our first meeting. We will help you set a competitive listing price. We can do this with confidence because prior to the meeting our research includes:

• What has sold
• What is currently on the market
• What has been on the market and did not sell
• What was pulled from the market prior to selling
• And other factors which effect the real estate market

Many sellers try to sell their homes without a real estate agent. Experience in the current market is worth more than any real estate commission you will pay. With our changing market, many new and innovative ideas are brought into the real estate contract. Without staying current on market trends, homeowners can find themselves at a disadvantage when signing the contract. Homeowners find themselves giving up more than anticipated at the closing table because of the way the contract is written, or a special stipulation inserted into the contract. We will present contracts with the bottom line clearly identified. We do not want our clients leaving the closing table disappointed.

• Our commission is determined on an individual basis.
• Our agents are truly independent--commissions do not have to be approved prior to signing a listing agreement with a seller.
