Frequently Asked Questions
Is Dowd Property Marketing a realty service?
No! We are not realtors, brokers, etc. We provide marketing services which allow you to sell your property "For Sale By Owner".
Are there any hidden commission fees?
No! The service is a flat fee for sale by owner service. We receive no additional money when you sell the property.
How much money can I save by having Dowd Property Marketing market the property rather than a realtor?
A lot! Most realtors charge 6% commission and some even charge 10% plus up to $10,000 for marketing fees. If your property sells for $1,000,000 you can save up to $107,ooo by using our marketing services. The savings only increase with the price of your property.
How good is the property advertising?
Our advertising is as good as and often times better than what any realtor will provide for you.
How long does it take to get the marketing started?
Because we do all of the work ourselves, we can usually develop the website, brochures and business cards within two weeks of getting the materials for them. At that time, you will approve of everything and pay the remainder that you owe for the services. Then, it will take about a week to get your website on the internet, the email account set up and all of the listings put on the property listing websites. It will be about another week to get all of the brochures to you and the emails sent to the realtors.
When does the service begin?
The service time starts on the day that your website is put onto the internet.
What if I want the service to start at a certain time of year?
That is great. We can get everything set up ahead of time and then start the service on the day that you tell us to begin it. We won't rush you to get it on the market until you want it done. We don't start counting the 6 months or year until your website is on the internet. You can pay us the remainder of the money due right before we start the services. It is actually helpful to us to have more time to get everything together before all of the marketing goes into effect.
When is the money due for the services?
A deposit of $500 is required when you sign up for the service. When you have approved of the website, brochures and business cards, the rest of the money is due. Everything will be set up after we receive payment in full for the services. We will bill you for any additional charges that you incur, such as fees for changes and additional brochures, or print media advertising at the time that the charges occur.
Who takes the pictures of the property?
We can use pictures that you already have or that you take. Depending on your location, we may also be able to come to your property and take pictures for free or a travel fee. We are located in Windsor, Colorado.
What do I need to provide?
You will need to provide as much information as you can including acreage, square footage, property improvement information (buildings and such) water and/or mineral rights, a property map, pictures, tax information, etc. The more information you have, the better the website will be and the better the property will look to potential buyers. We will give you some forms to fill out to help with gathering the information.
What if I decide to change the price or the property or want other changes to the website, etc. after I have approved of everything?
Just call or email us and we can make the changes that you request. We do charge a fee of $30/hour to make changes, but will give you the first 4 hours of changes for free.
Can I buy additional brochures or business cards?
Yes! Just call or email us and we will send you the requested items within two weeks. Additional brochures cost $5 each. Business cards are $25/100 cards. You can also buy additional brochures or business cards when you sign up for the services.
Do you provide legal advice on the sale of the property?
No. We are not attorneys or brokers and do not give legal advice. We suggest that you talk to professionals for any legal information that you need.
Do you talk to the potential buyers or negotiate for the sale?
No. All correspondences come directly to your email account or your phone. You know the property and what you want to do to negotiate the sale. This eliminates the "middle man" and can help make the negotiations easier.
Who shows the property to potential buyers?
You do. You will schedule the showings and show the property. This allows you to emphasize the best parts of your property. After all, nobody knows the property like you do. This also gives you a chance to get a "feel" for the potential buyer.
Do you complete any of the sale paperwork?
No. We only provide marketing. We are not realtors, attorneys, etc. You will need to find other professionals for help with the legal aspects of the sale. In all real estate dealings, title companies are the ones who actually do most of the paperwork. We can refer you to a tile company, or you can find them in your local phone book. We do not represent any title companies and are not liable for anything that they do.
What happens if I decide later to list my property with a realtor?
Just let us know, and you have no further obligations to Dowd Property Marketing. We will discontinue your listings on marketing websites and stop emailing realtors for you. We will also close your custom website and email account. The brochures, website and business cards are copyrighted materials of Dowd Property Marketing and cannot be reproduced without our consent. No money will be refunded to you.
What happens after my property is sold?
Yea! Let us know when you close on the property and we will close your email and website accounts and take your listing off of the marketing sites. That's it!
How easy is it to contact you?
Very easy! You can email us at any time and call 7 days a week. You will get information and help from a live person who works with your account, not an animated system. If we are unable to answer the phone when you call, just leave a message. We return emails and phone messages between 8am and 8pm MST 7 days a week.
