Seller's Guide

What do you want to accomplish with the sale of your home? Do you want to make a certain amount of money that you can put toward a larger or nicer home? Do you need to sell it as soon as possible to facilitate a move to a new city or area? Once you understand your needs, we can put together a strategy that will serve you best. For example, if you need to sell quickly, you might want to price your home lower than if your goal is to make a certain profit margin.

If you’ve kept your home in showroom condition since you’ve lived in it, you’re in the minority of homeowners. Once you price your home, it’s time to start getting it ready to be shown to potential buyers. This includes getting rid of clutter, depersonalizing the space so that buyers can envision themselves in the space, making any small repairs, and doing a deep clean to make sure your home is in pristine condition.

Receiving an offer is an exciting part of the process, but it doesn’t mean the journey is over. We will evaluate each offer and make sure the party making the offer is prequalified or pre-approved by a mortgage lender and that their offer is acceptable to you. If the offer is too low, you can make a counter-offer or offer other ways to bridge the gap, such as covering some or all of the closing costs, making repairs, adjusting the move-in date, or leaving some appliances or fixtures for the new buyer.

You have accepted an offer and are now nearing the final step of your selling journey. From here, we will ensure everything is on track for a smooth closing. Our team will oversee all action items, coordinate with the necessary parties, and confirm everything is in place by the closing date. A few days before closing, we will double-check with the company handling the transaction to ensure everything is ready to go. If you have not already, now is the time to make arrangements for moving out so the new buyer can take possession.
