The Seller Experience

1. Initial Appointment
During our initial appointment, I aim to learn more about your specific objectives and expectations, as well as tour your home. I will also provide you with a comprehensive market analysis to help you understand the current real estate landscape in your area. Additionally, we will discuss strategies for selling your home and review contracts.

2. Price it Right
Using comparable homes that recently sold in your neighborhood, I will put together a comprehensive market analysis. We will discuss the fine line between pricing too high and just right.

3. Home Sale Prep
With my expertise in home renovation and design, we will walk through your home together, room by room, to discuss what can be done to show your home in the best light. This will improve the professional photos that are taken as well as present your home well during showings and open houses.

4. Devise a Marketing Plan
I will present you with a comprehensive marketing plan that includes a ‘Coming Soon’ strategy, social media advertising, email marketing, property flyers, and open houses.

5. Go Live on the MLS
When your home is posted to the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), it is officially on the market and viewable to all potential buyers. This is when showings will begin and we will schedule an open house.

We will review all offers and discuss the terms of each contract to determine which offer best fits your wishes. Once we have an executed contract, I will work on your behalf to move through all the contingencies and get us to the settlement table. Then we celebrate!
