Our Sell Strategy - Burgess Group

At Burgess Group | Compass, Catherine and Andy commit their deep local & national market knowledge, network, and powerful negotiating skills to your success. As one of the top-ranking Boulder County real estate groups, we consistently uphold the highest ethical and professional standards, dedicating ourselves to our clients, our community, and passion for our profession.

We're better at pricing. We're better at negotiation. And we have the numbers to prove it.

Looking at sale-to-list percentages can help sellers know how successful their agents are at pricing a home right out of the gate, and how they negotiate once offers come in.

The sale-to-list ratio is the final sale price (what a buyer pays for the home) divided by the last list price expressed as a percentage. If it's above 100%, the home sold for more than the list price. If it's less than 100%, the home sold for less than the list price.

So where do we stack up?

On a $1M sale, our sellers have averaged 107.2% of asking price this year, netting $45,000 more than the average Compass agent and $54,000 more than the average Boulder County agent.

The value of experience

We deliver highly profitable results, yielding some of the Front Range’s highest-priced home sales. With over 25 years experience, including building, rehab, and professional real estate services, we deeply understand current and trending market activity. We help clients select the right property to achieve their long-term goals, optimizing both client time and their overall investment. Burgess Group has an exceptional success record helping hundreds of buyers win bidding wars in some of Colorado’s most sophisticated and competitive markets, including Boulder, Louisville, Lafayette, Longmont, Broomfield, and Denver.

Marketing Expertise

Exposure is everything. Our marketing is clean, simple, and modern, conveying quality and sophistication. We determine the optimal buying demographic- and highlight the property’s strengths in language that speaks to them. Harnessing the power of high-end professional photography, enhanced online exposure, social media, and a monthly newsletter, we ensure that your listing gets as many responses as possible.

From local to worldwide, we maximize exposure to your listing through the top digital and print media channels. More exposure means more page views, more phone calls, and more showings, which ultimately means shorter market time and a higher selling price.
