2. Market Analysis

3. Marketing Strategies
Together we develop a customized plan to sell your home. From MLS listings to hosting open houses, to targeted campaigns and using digital advertising, to photography and staging.
4. Clean & Repair
A few simple repairs, a deep cleaning, and a fresh coat of paint can not only decrease the time it takes to sell your home but increase the price you get for it. Decluttering , eliminating taste specific effects and getting rid of pet hair and odors will have a tremendously positive impact.
5. Prepare for Showing
We will help you prepare to show the property professionally to interested buyers. Open houses and private showings in the homeowner’s absence.
6. Negotiations
Properties in desirable neighborhoods and a competitive market will often have several competing offers. It's not uncommon in a hot market to get offers above the asking price for premium properties.
7. Accept Offer
8. Inspection
9. Closing
Once an offer is accepted the buyer and seller enter into a period called escrow. The buyer and seller await a closing and move-out date, plus address any promises made in the contract. Escrow also allows time for a title report, an official appraisal, and a property inspection.
As the owner you'll meet and cooperate with the property appraiser. The buyer's lender will be making sure the price doesn't exceed it's true current value and that there aren't any hidden problems. Your property should be clean and organized before the appraisal appointment,
Once Inspection passes and contract checklists are crossed off Pat walk's you through all the closing paperwork that you'll sign during the closing meeting. It's prudent to read all the documents carefully before signing. Once everything is signed and verified by all parties, the property has officially been sold. It will be time for you to move out if you already haven't.
