STEPS TO SELLING YOUR HOME

 

Thinking About Selling?

Selling your home is a big decision, and it’s one I don’t take lightly. Whether you're relocating, downsizing, or just exploring your options, I’m here to help you navigate the process with clarity, strategy, and a calm head — from the first conversation to the final closing.

While some sellers consider going it alone, the truth is: there’s a lot more involved than just putting a sign in the yard. Pricing, preparation, marketing, negotiations, legal disclosures, timelines — it’s a lot. I’ve helped many sellers get the results they were hoping for (and often better), while making the process feel smooth and manageable.

Here’s a look at how I help sellers every step of the way:

Understanding Your Home’s Value
We’ll start by reviewing your property details, recent upgrades, and the unique features that set it apart. I’ll also pull comparable sales, analyze current market trends, and walk you through what buyers are paying for homes like yours in your neighborhood right now.

Setting the Right Price
Pricing is key. I’ll help you strike the perfect balance between maximizing your sale price and generating strong interest early — because homes that sit on the market often sell for less.

Getting the Property Market-Ready
Small improvements can make a big difference. I’ll do a full walk-through and suggest any repairs or updates that could boost your sale price or help avoid red flags during inspection. From paint to light fixtures to landscaping, I’ll help you prioritize where to focus.

Showcasing Your Home
I’ll bring in a professional photographer and, if it makes sense for your home, recommend trusted stagers who know how to highlight your home’s best features. My goal is to make your listing stand out — both online and in person.

Strategic Marketing
Your home will be featured across major real estate platforms, targeted digital ads, email campaigns, social media, and local agent networks. I’ll tailor the strategy to your specific property and market — and keep you in the loop every step of the way.

Negotiating with Confidence
When offers come in, I’ll walk you through the terms, explain the pros and cons of each, and strategize the best way to respond. My job is to advocate for you — and make sure your deal is solid, fair, and as smooth as possible.

Managing the Details
From disclosures to timelines, inspections to appraisals, I’ll coordinate everything behind the scenes and make sure you’re informed but never overwhelmed. I’ll also help you prepare for closing so there are no surprises along the way.

A Quick Note If You're Buying and Selling
If you’re planning to buy another home while selling your current one, I can help coordinate both sides of the move. Whether we close both on the same day or negotiate a rent-back to give you breathing room, I’ll walk you through the best options based on your timing, goals, and comfort level.

Ready to Talk?
Whether you’re months away from listing or just starting to think about selling, I’d love to hear about your plans and share what’s happening in the current market. No pressure — just helpful information and a clear plan if and when you’re ready to move forward.
