Richard and Jana will perform a detailed market analysis to help determine the right price based on local market conditions, recent sales, updates to the home and property features.
Simple steps like decluttering, staging, and addressing minor repairs can make your home more attractive to buyers. We can provide a checklist based on what matters most in today’s market.
An appraisal is conducted by the buyer’s lender to confirm the home’s value. If the appraisal comes in lower than the offer price, we may need to negotiate with the buyer or adjust the price.
A title company verifies ownership, ensures there are no unresolved claims or liens on your property, and provides title insurance to protect the buyer. They coordinate with all parties to facilitate a smooth closing and handle tasks such as recording documents and managing funds. Typically, the seller chooses the title company. We can recommend one if you do not know which to use.
Seller closing costs typically include title fees, prorated property taxes, and your agent’s compensation. We will provide a Seller's Net Sheet to give you an estimate of these expenses to help you plan and what you should roughly be walking away with.
We’ll outline a clear compensation structure upfront, covering our services, which include professional photography, marketing, and document coordination.
A survey shows the property’s boundaries, structures, and any easements. Providing a recent survey can help potential buyers feel confident about the property’s exact boundaries and may speed up the closing process if required by the lender. If you do not have one at hand, the buyer will coordinate with a 3rd party survey company to complete.
