Real Broker - Real Estate Agent

Seller's Guide
Learn more about the home selling process, from determining your home's value through to closing day.

The decision to sell your home is a big one. Whether this will be your first time on the selling side of the real estate process or you've done it several times before, I would love to assist you with the sale of your home. As a trusted REALTOR®, I understand the nuances of the market and can work with you to determine a competitive and fair price for your home and can help you navigate the process and help answer any questions you may have.

Preparing Your Home for Sale

Before you list your home, you'll want to make sure your home is as marketable as possible. You may want to consider some repairs that could help add value to your property, such as fixing any water damage or foundation concerns. Even small cosmetic changes can have a big impact in the eyes of a buyer, such as replacing outdated light fixtures or giving your home a fresh coat of paint. I can work with you to help identify updates that may help increase the value of your home.
Determining Your Home's Value

Choosing the right price for your home is one of the most important components of the selling process. While online estimates can be a good place to start, your agent will be able to provide a more accurate estimate based on local trends, the condition of your home, similar homes in the area, and more. Equipped with the insight and knowledge on the real estate market, you can rest assured knowing your RE/MAX agent is committed to finding a fair value for your home.
Marketing Your Home

I have acess to advanced marketing and digital strategies through CHIME, the REAL Broker Network, and the MLS. These resources will help drive more traffic to your listing, generating more interest and more competitive offers on your home.

You can expect maximum exposure for your home through these comprehensive marketing strategies.
Getting and Accepting an Offer

Once your home is on the market and a buyer is interested, they will submit an offer to your agent through their own agent. While the offer may differ from your asking price, you are able to reject or counter their offer if you'd like. Once you accept an offer, you'll be officially under contract! During the due-diligence period between signing the purchase agreement and closing the sale of your home, your agent can help you understand the conditions, provisions, and obligations of your contact.
Closing the Deal

You'll sit down and sign paperwork with the help of your agent and transfer the ownership of your home to the buyer. Now it's time to celebrate! You've just sold your home and are ready to move on to your next adventure.
