Everything you need to know about putting your home on the market, accepting an offer, and closing on your home.
Putting your home on the market can be a stressful process, especially when you don’t know what to expect. Fortunately, with the help of an experienced agent and this easy to follow guide, you can smoothly complete the process. Following these steps will help you prepare so you can get organized and sell your home for the best price possible.
Selling your home is a big decision. There could be many reasons why it is time to sell.
By asking and understanding your motives, this will be the foundation of how we craft the sale of your home together for the smoothest experience with the least stress.
Knowing how to price your home is one of the most important parts of the selling process. I don't guess. I use Market Data and look at your home like an appraiser would.
Getting the price right from the beginning is why my listings sell fast.
If you’ve kept your home in showroom condition since you’ve lived in it, you’re in the minority of homeowners!
Compass Concierge was designed to help you fix your home, ready it for photos, pay for staging, anything you need. Compass knows a home that shows well gets top dollar so we give you the money upfront with no interest fees.
I have a trusted marketing strategy that is perfect for advertising your home. This involves social media campaigns, agent-to-agent referrals, print ads, google ads and SEO advertising.
Compass.com gets the highest amount of hits from consumer search. And with my network of 30,000 agents nationwide, you get more eyes on your listing than with anyone else.
Receiving offers is when my negotiation skills really pay off. Making sure the offer accepted is the one you want when it is all done.
I manage the process right down to signing to keep the deal on track and not going "back on the market". That's where my 100% closed transactions stat will give you peace of mind.
Once the offer is accepted, the negotiations are not over. There are contingency hurdles, loan approvals, getting the home to appraise at the contracted amount...all these aspects can require renegotiations right down to the day of closing.
Getting ready to close can be stressful too. If you are buying another home and the closings need to be timed perfectly, movers setup, utilities transferred.
That is the best part of working with Compass. I have agents anywhere you want to move to and can help you get to where you are going with the same seamless process.
Its all over but the signing. The last step in the Sellers Journey. I will be with you right down to this last step to insure all the monies are distributed correctly and be there to answer or explain any final questions.
Once you have sold your home, you’re free to take the next step on your journey. Whether this is relocating to a new city, moving into a larger home, or downsizing and enjoying your life as empty-nesters, knowing all your selling responsibilities have been taken care of will help you achieve peace of mind for your new path.
