Handshake over a real estate deal

Embarking on the journey of selling your home is not just a transaction; it's a significant milestone that requires strategic planning and the right guidance. Understanding the process start to finish can help you make informed decisions along the way. Here is what you can expect in the process:


Interview: When first planning to sell your home, it is crucial to find the best agent to use. Interviewing multiple realtors is key to finding the one that best suits your needs.


Pricing: Once selecting an agent, they will conduct a market analysis to be able to work with you to establish the most ideal price for your home.


Staging: In order to get the best price for your home, presentation is everything. Staging helps potential buyers to be able to envision your house becoming their dream home.


MLS: When your home is ready, it will be posted on the MLS for potential buyers and agents to see. This begins the official selling process.


Photographs: Once done with staging, professional photos will also be taken of your home to enhace its digital presence and give potential buys the best glimpse into your home.


Marketing: Along with photos, your realtor will develop a strategic marketing plan including social, digital and print strategies. This not only helps you sell your home quickly, but also for the best price to the right buyer.


Offer: With excellent marketing, offers on your home will start rolling in. Your agent will review them all with you and help negotiate to get you the best deal.


Under Contract: After accepting the best offer, your home will be under contract. This means that you have selected a buyer and will begin the process of completing the deal.


Negotiations: At this time, your realtor will work with the buyers agent to negotiate any requests for repairs and release any other contingencies.


Closing: Hooray! Time to hand over the keys and celebrate selling your home.


In the intricate dance of selling your home, from setting the ideal price through meticulous staging, professional photography, and strategic marketing, to navigating negotiations and reaching the closing stage, a skilled and attentive real estate agent is your invaluable guide.
