What the listing process looks like
Start with your plans and the property
We will talk about why you are considering selling, your timing, and what needs to happen next. A walkthrough helps me understand the home and gives us a chance to discuss its condition, improvements, and anything you are unsure about.
Choose what to prepare and where to price
I will review comparable sales and current competition with you, then help prioritize the preparation that makes sense for your home and budget. We will discuss an asking price and estimated selling costs so you can consider likely proceeds alongside your next move.
Agree on the plan before going live
We will review the listing agreement, services, compensation, and timing together. Then we will work through disclosures, presentation, and showing arrangements. You should know how your home will be introduced to buyers and how we will handle access before the listing launches.
Present the home and respond to the market
Once the listing is live, I will coordinate inquiries and showings, keep you informed about feedback, and review how buyers are responding. If the response suggests a change in price or presentation, we will discuss the evidence and decide what to do together.
Review offers in context
Price matters, and so do financing, contingencies, requested concessions, and the closing date. I will help you compare the terms, understand the tradeoffs, and negotiate a response that fits your priorities.
Stay organized through closing
After you accept an offer, I help track deadlines, coordinate access for inspections and appraisal, and work through any requests with you. As closing approaches, we will stay in touch with title and escrow and coordinate the final walkthrough, possession, and your move.
How your home will be presented
The marketing plan should suit the property and the market likely to consider it. We will agree on the presentation, launch timing, showing approach, and how you will receive updates.
I help prepare your home for market with practical guidance on presentation, photography, pricing, and the details that can affect how buyers see the property. Once the listing is ready, I place it in the appropriate MLS and syndication channels and can promote it through selected online and social channels when that makes sense for the property.
I keep you informed throughout the process, including showing activity, buyer feedback, market response, offers, and any recommendations that may help. We will discuss which services are included, which are optional, and whether any service involves a separate cost before moving forward. My goal is to give you a clear plan and help you make informed decisions at each step.
