Selling Your Home?

      The first decision you make in selling your home is perhaps the most important: listing your home with the right Realtor.

Listing With Irongate

     At Irongate, our 350+ full-time associates combine knowledge, enthusiasm and a strong work ethic to serve their buyers in a professional manner. Our motto is “Real People for Real Results”. For us, this is more than a slogan. Our Realtors live in the areas they serve, and serve in the areas they live. In service clubs and organizations; churches, synagogues and temples; cultural, theater, visual and performing arts groups; youth work and athletic teams, our associates contribute their talents to community, service, religious and professional organizations throughout the Miami Valley. Our associates are the reason why Irongate has grown in the past thirty years to become the largest independent real estate brokerage in the Miami Valley - and the most respected. You and your home are important to us, not only professionally, but as friends, colleagues and neighbors.

Marketing Your Property Through Irongate

     A realistic market evaluation is the next step toward the prompt sale of your property at a price acceptable to you. Your Irongate Realtor has access to current tax assessments, tax appraisal values, maps and records for all counties within the Miami Valley, computer listings of all sales in your area for the past week, month and year, as well as our own historical file of listings sold for the past 30 years. Last, but not least, you have the unique professional knowledge and experience of your individual Irongate Realtor. Your Irongate Realtor is committed to the maximum exposure of your property by using proven sales methods, as well as the latest marketing techniques. While Realtor’s individual styles may vary, all Irongate associates will:

      • Place our award-winning “For Sale” sign on your property. Numerous homes sell each year through this simple and effective form of advertising.

      • Enter all the information concerning your house into the Multiple Listing Service, a computer based system that can provide complete information (including a color photo) to all 2800 members of the Dayton Area Board of Realtors.

      • Discuss your property with our full time Irongate Realtors. We want all of our agents to be able to speak intelligently about your property to their clients, as well as to others, when calls come into our offices. Irongate agents sell 40% of Irongate's listings. The national average is 2%.

      • Guarantee company-paid Dayton Daily News newspaper advertising until your property is sold. Your Irongate Realtor will be able to show you the size, location and frequency of all our ads for your home.

      • Utilize additional publications (such as the Times Community Newspapers) our award-winning website at www.IrongateRealtors.com, other internet venues (such as LuxuryHomes.com), this magazine, as well as Irongate’s extensive network of professional and business memberships to increase exposure for your home.

      • Schedule an Open House for your home, with your approval, making it convenient for prospective buyers to inspect your property. These are usually held on Sunday afternoons. It is not necessary for you to be present. In fact, many buyers and sellers alike feel more comfortable and relaxed if the seller is not present during open houses or showings!

Preparing Your Home For Sale

     Ohio State law requires all sellers to complete Residential Property Disclosure Forms. Your Irongate Realtor will provide you with these and alll the other forms you must complete.
