Key to Your Dreams® Team Concept & Our Key to Your Dreams® Team Menu of Services (Includes items that you get to choose:) Key to Your Dreams® Team concept Thank you for giving us the opportunity to tell you about our Key to Your Dreams® Team concept. Key to Your Dreams® Team , led by Teresa N. Snyder and her father Larry Snyder, believe that the real estate industry is going through major changes. The general public has access to information as never before in history because of the Internet. Information moves with the click of a button and your real estate professional must be able to keep up with the rapidly changing trends in the industry. On the other hand, the one thing that hasn't changed is people's need for competent, personalized services provided by well-educated, highly experienced, thoroughly trained, caring professionals in the real estate business. Our mission is to provide our clients with the best in real estate services. Serving each person with empathy, honesty, integrity and professionalism to create an enjoyable and world class real estate experience. We work very hard, along with our Key to Your Dreams® Team, to assure that your home buying, borrowing, or selling experience meets and exceeds all of your expectations. Our Key to Your Dreams® Team offers an outstanding network of professional resources as well as unsurpassed after sale service. A LITTLE MORE ABOUT THEM… LARRY SNYDER has been in the real estate business for over 28 years. Many of those years were spent managing his successful real estate here locally. Larry's superb negotiating skills, attention to detail and knowledge of the industry help to make your selling transactions flow smoothly. TERESA N. SNYDER (Larry’s Daughter) excels in marketing as well as locating the perfect home for your family. Having recently completed her Mortgage Banker Training, and recently joining an extensive Real Estate & Lender Marketing University in San Diego, California, Teresa’s knowledge of the real estate market, 285 loan programs including Zero Down, Low Down & Complicated Credit Loans, and current real estate laws assures you of complying with Oregon's many requirements. Because of Larry and Teresa's diverse interests they have extensive knowledge of communities throughout the county, you are assured that they will make "your dreams come true." Key to Your Dreams® Team Concept Marketing Plan TECHNOLOGY TOOLS HOME & LOAN FINDER HOTLINE: This is a 24 HOUR Toll Free HOTLINE and you will have two extensions describing your property and available loan programs with options for the caller to obtain additional information. You will also have a Special Report available. We market these numbers by placing yellow signs on your property. This number will also be placed on all marketing materials. The technology captures the calling phone number so that we can follow-up on all leads related to your property. It also shows the person's mailing address if they have lived there for longer than one year (the amazing power of technology)...We also offer over 60 Special Reports and extensive information on Low Down Loan Program. UGLY YELLOW SIGNS: This is the best marketing tool we have ever used. We place three yellow signs on your property all equipped with their own personal mailbox code. The first sign is a "Home Info Sign"- prospects can call our HOME AND LOAN FINDER HOTLINE 24 hours a day and access information on your home and find out more about the neighborhood- how many other homes have sold in the same area and how many are currently listed. This is not normally released information but it is public data and people who use our hotline are impressed with the wealth of free information we give them. The second sign is a "Terms Sign" and it shows prospects that there are Zero to 3% down Loan programs available and it states a possible monthly payment at 8.5% interest. This is an attention grabber. Most people do not know how little they need to buy a home. When they see this sign they say "How do they do that?" and then they call. The third sign is for a "Special Report"- I have over 65 Reports to use. Right now I am offering via voice recording "5 Very Powerful Buying Strategies". Our goal is provide prospects with more information than anyone else and fabulous service so that they will feel comfortable with calling us for more information. 81% of all Buyers will call a free recorded message whereas only 8% will contact a real estate agent directly- 1999 By Referral Only Survey. The principle of multiple signs is that they are out of the ordinary and consequently sneak under the consumer’s advertising radar. In short, they get attention! We want buyers reading our signs and saying, "WOW, how do they do that?" or "Holy Molely! I gotta know more about this house!" The purpose of multiple signs is to penetrate the advertising armor of the buyer and get them to take action and call on your home. Yes, these are "ugly sings" (remember those absolutely horrible commercials you’ve seen or heard on TV and radio, they were done that way on purpose so you would remember them) but we get comments from buyers that say they are glad we put terms on our signs and that they did not know how affordable a house was. What could this mean to you? Instead of buyers driving past your home and all the other homes with just a professional sign out front, they stop and take a closer look .....and this can mean a sold sign appearing much faster! BY REFERRAL ONLY® Real Estate Consultants As By Referral Only® Real Estate & Mortgage Consultants we are members of the Real Estate Marketing University and the Mortgage Bankers University in San Diego. As such we are involved in continuing education to enhance our real estate practice and serve our clients better. Since our business is By Referral Only®, it is of the utmost importance that we give you the very best world class service possible.

HOME AND LOAN FINDER ONLINE: Your home will be available to the web market place 24 hours a day through your exclusive, personalized web page. 24 Hour AUTO-RESPONSE SYSTEM - Everyone who accesses our web site has to enter their name and email address to get in. They are automatically entered into 4 years of emails. I know this sounds like a lot, but statistically it takes 7 - 21 contacts before someone who contact you for more information. Our goal is to provide them with enough free information that they will contact and contract with us to aid them in their home search. We offer a free home finder service by email and currently have 281 people receiving weekly emails on all the new properties listed on our MLS. We will send special emails featuring your home to all new email addresses every two weeks. PRINT ADS: We are committed to providing a wide variety of print advertising available through these fine publications. Placement of print ads will be determined after careful consideration of your target market. Herald & News Classifieds (work the best) Herald & News Real Estate Guide Nickel Dollar Saver FYI: Please be aware that research shows print media does not usually sell the advertised home but rather sells another home. All inquiries from print media go directly to the company office and are seldom traceable. NATIONAL REFERRAL NETWORK: As a member of the Marketing University in San Diego, we have access to one of the most extensive referral systems in North America making your property available to local and out-of-town buyers. We also obtain additional buyer referrals through special relationships with major internet sites- Foreclosure Free Research, REBAC, By Referral Only®, etc. GRAPHIC DESIGN EXPERTISE: With Teresa's interest in graphic design, marketing & knowing what catches the public’s eye, you will have professionally designed property information fliers, postcards and 2"x3" property cards to distribute to your family, friends, and associates. You would be amazed at the power of a comprehensive graphic look for your particular property. Be aware that the material she uses had been tried and true and is recommended as successful from the Marketing University. Her Ugly Yellow Signs bring in 15 times the response of any other direct advertising campaign.
INITIAL CONSULTATION UNDERSTANDING YOUR GOALS: People sell their homes for a variety of reasons. Our job is to listen carefully so that we have a clear understanding of your goals and objectives. DESCRIBING THE PROCESS: We listen attentively to discern what an Ultimate Transaction would look like to you. Then we develop a strategy, along with our Key to Your Dreams® Team, to assure that you experience the transaction as you desired. This goes beyond getting the desired price (which we will negotiate in your best interest in mind) but rather creating a pleasant home selling experience. LEGAL ISSUES: We will provide you & all buyers with a great pamphlet that describes legal issues to be aware of and explains inspections, molds, septic tanks, fuel tanks, water tests, etc. It is called the Oregon Property Buyer's Advisory located here: http://oregonrealtors.org/About_OAR/buyadv.html and it is not only of great information value but answers a ton of questions that typically go answered and is tool we use in our risk management arsenal. It also provides links outside of the pamphlet to even more detailed information. COMPETITIVE MARKET ANALYSIS: A thorough Competitive Market Analysis will be prepared considering the subject property and it's surrounding area. This CMA will be presented and explained to you. At that point inform you of your pricing options, depending on market conditions and your goals. PAPERWORK AND PROTECTING YOU, THE SELLER DESCRIBING AGENCY: We will provide you with a pamphlet that explains our agency relationship with you in detail. What it means to be your agent and the responsibilities that go along with that relationship. If you at any time have any questions - please let us know. CONTRACTS: We will provide information that thoroughly explains all of the seller's disclosures required by the State of Oregon. We will also go over the listing contract in detail with you so that you are fully aware of all aspects of the document. We will also review the buyer's contract so that you will be knowledgeable prior to receiving your first offer. NEGOTIATING THE CONTRACT: When you receive one or more offers from qualified buyers, we will present all offers to you and be available to answer all questions. Larry is especially masterful at negotiating contracts on your behalf. His experience and creativity usually makes it a win/win situation for all concerned. If you are unavailable for our initial consultation or just plain too busy (trust we do understand), we can arrange a phone consultation or send you the information to read in the comfort of your own home. MEET THE TEAM Selling your home is like knocking over the first of many dominos. You have taken the first step by asking for information. Once a listing contract is in place we will involve additional "players." Once again, after you have an accepted offer, you will meet additional professionals.
