I’m thinking about listing my home, but I’m not sure where to start. How will the process begin?
If you’re thinking about selling your home, a good place to start is assessing your home’s market worth. This isn’t necessarily what you paid 10 years ago, or what you owe currently, yet it’s the result of an analysis that studies homes similar to yours that have sold within the last several months. Conducting a market analysis is a bit of an art. Many factors go in to researching the most accurate home comparisons, and adjusting for variances is crucial to yielding the most realistic figure your home will sell for in the current market conditions. First, we’ll make a personal visit to your home to see all of its lovely features, in addition to checking out the area competition. Next, we’ll provide you with a hyperlocal Comparable Market Analysis (CMA) that will explain in detail home comparisons in your area, along with a suggested range for list price.

I have my CMA, what’s next?
Once you have your CMA, you’re one step closer to getting your home on the market! We’ll prepare and provide you with all of the necessary documentation that will encompass specific details about your home and transaction. Once the listing agreement is signed, the next step is to assess the condition of your home and determine if any repairs need to be done prior to listing. Sometimes the smallest repairs can make a BIG difference, especially in the list price of your home. We know which investments yield the most return and we’ll put together a plan to attract buyers and get the best offers. Our seller concierge services make it easy to prepare your home for market. Our curated list of handymen, painters, stagers, landscapers can get right to work for you. Need an eye for detail to get your home looking spectacular? We offer a complimentary staging consultation and often times we can work with staging your home utilizing your existing furniture, but we’ll also provide recommendations for incorporating additional pieces where needed. A room refresh can often times mean thousands of dollars added to your bottom line.
In addition, you’ll also receive a copy of our 90-point Sales Plan for your home. Not to fret – it’s everything we’re going to do to keep the process easy for you!
What do I do when my home is listed?
Selling a home can be stressful, and that’s why we’ll be your “go-to” to help you navigate the process. We’ll communicate with you, sometimes on a daily basis, with showing feedback, potential offers, etc. Once an offer is placed on your home, we’ll work with you to ensure all necessary documents are completed, and most importantly, we’ll assess the offer package together to ensure you’re getting the best offer possible, negotiating on your behalf.
