Home Condition

We make sure to take the time and walk through your home, while providing recommendations pertaining to necessary updates, ideal staging techniques, and local contractors. The goal is to “optimize” your home and highlight it in a way that will captivate interested buyers.

Correct Pricing

We understand the importance of selling your property for as much as possible, while also taking into consideration your desired time frame. One of the most common mistakes sellers make is overpricing their home when it hits the market.

This can lead to a lack of showings, low offer prices, and deals that fall through. The first month a home is listed will prove to be the most vital, and we will make sure to price your home in a way that positions you for a successful sale.

Market Your Home

The importance of high quality listing photos is imperative when marketing your home. Though buyers have many different motivations in terms of what they look for in a property, it’s the pictures that can determine whether or not a buyer even chooses to view a listing in the first place.

Our professional photographers will capture the true essence of your home, allowing us to market your property to its fullest potential.

Under Contract

  • The buyer will have one to two weeks to perform all inspections on the property and submit their requested repairs for you to review.

  • Once you receive the inspection report and the buyers requested repairs, we will have 5 days to gather quotes and get back to them with your response. If an agreement has not been reached at the end of the 7 days, you and the buyer will have 48 hours to come to a resolution or terminate the contract.

  • Per the contract, a Wood Destroying Insect inspection will be conducted. We will order the inspection on your behalf and let you know once it is scheduled. These inspections typically take 30 minutes and the cost of the inspection maybe included in your fees at closing. In the event an active infestation is found, it is the sellers responsibly to have the area treated and any associated damage repaired.

  • If you've accepted a financed offer, a licensed appraiser is required to perform a visual inspection of the property. During their appointment they will evaluate whether the condition of the home validates the purchase price/ loan amount. These inspections typically take 15 minutes to an hour to perform. Afterwards the appraiser will submit his recommendation to the buyer's lender.

  • Your settlement attorney will prepare your deed for sale. In the event any liens are found, your attorney will assist in clearing the title of any encumbrances. They will also facilitate signing the deed and other closing documents a few days prior to the close date.

  • The buyer will perform a walkthrough inspection a day or two before closing. At the walk-through the buyers will review all repairs and the general condition of the home. Plan to have the property clean and be completely moved out for this inspection. We recommend leaving all keys in the kitchen for the buyer to collect at the final walk-through.
