would be a good price, since their client wanted
to sell rather quickly. Not one to be deterred by
a little push back, and knowing both of those
prices were too low, Penny went into RPR to
show them why she felt $227K was not only
a great list price, but one that would ensure
the property would sell quickly. After looking at
the data, including the ‘5 stars of confidence’
on the RVM®, they decided to compromise
and list the property at $220K, which was still
over $30,000 more than their client had even
dreamed of. The property sold for full list price,
in 8 days, with backup offers over list price!

Out of Town Clients
Meet Dru, a Realtor® in Arizona. Dru has been
a Realtor® since 2003, and is also an avid real
estate blogger. Dru had a client contact her to
purchase a home in Scottsdale, Arizona. The
caveat: the client currently lived outside the
country and also owned property in California.
He wanted to get a sense of what his home in
California was worth, which would then determine what he could afford in Scottsdale.
Dru instantly knew
that RPR could help.
After logging in, she found her client’s California property and its RVM. She then used the
RVM and subject property details to help her
find comps for the home and figured out her
client’s equity in less than 4 minutes, without
ever seeing the property firsthand. Her client
was impressed, and Dru knew that she’d be
using RPR and its RVM in her business from
that point forward.

The RVM gave each
a starting point in their
pricing strategy and
confidence
Although each of these Realtors® has used the
RVM in their own way, one thing is consistent:
the RVM gave each of them a starting point
in their pricing strategy and the confidence to
know their clients would be quickly getting the
most out of their property.
