During our initial meeting, we will spend time getting to know you. We will discuss your goals and timeline, developing a customized plan to meet your needs.

As we walk through your property together, we will show you various ways to enhance the value of your home so you receive top dollar. If you are worried about the expense, we have a few programs that can help.

There is no second chance on a first impression, so it’s important to put in the time to make sure your home is in top condition. A fresh coat of paint, professional staging, and top-tier marketing can really enhance your home. A well-presented home draws more attention from serious buyers and can greatly decrease the time your home is on the market.

Conducting a pre-listing inspection can streamline the home-selling process and increase the chances of a successful sale by:

❱ Providing buyers with the information and peace of mind upfront, so they'll write an offer that won't require re-negotiating down the road

❱ Reducing the chance of inspection contingencies in offers received, which helps prevent transactions from falling through due to an inspection's findings

❱ Allowing you the opportunity to price the home accordingly and/or address any issues before going on the market

Determining an accurate price for your home is essential for a successful sale. We can assist you in this process by performing a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA), which will give you a detailed assessment of your home's worth in relation to comparable properties in similar areas. In addition to a CMA, we will invite other seasoned agents from our office to tour the home and provide their input. Using this information, we will ensure your home is priced competitively and in line with current market conditions.

Our professional photographer will capture the best features of both the interior and exterior of your home. We may utilize 3D photography, known as "Matterport," or employ floor plans to enhance the online viewing experience of your home. These innovative tools give online viewers a more comprehensive understanding of the space.

We will expertly market your home, strategically enticing potential buyers through print and digital marketing campaigns, direct mail, local advertisements, and open houses. We will market your listing through all relevant real estate websites, including Zillow, Trulia, and Redfin, and will promote it through our social media networks.

We will hold an open house to create buzz and drive traffic to your home. Additionally, we will host a Brokers' Open to market the home to local agents who - in addition to generating interest and providing useful feedback - may have prospective buyers.

Once we find a buyer for your home, it is important to carefully review the Purchase and Sale Agreement, which outlines the terms and conditions of the property transfer. As your trusted agents, we help you navigate the negotiation process by identifying any potential red flags and highlighting the pros and cons.

Once the Purchase and Sale Agreement is signed by the buyer and seller, a home inspector is hired to examine the home’s health and safety. If any issues arise, the buyer may be able to renegotiate their offer.

When an offer is accepted, and a closing date is agreed upon, escrow allows the buyer and the seller to have an outside party ensure all parts of the contract are complete.

At closing, all the paperwork is signed by the buyer and seller, both parties pay any settlement fees, and the documents are officially recorded. Once the sale has been recorded by the county, you have officially closed! Escrow will then disperse funds, and you will collect your proceeds from the sale. The buyer usually takes possession of the property on closing day unless a rent-back agreement has been negotiated.
