For sellers

We’ll meet in person or get on a call to talk about your needs regarding a sale. Are you buying a new house with the proceeds? Where will you live in the interim? Is there a minimum profit you need for a sale to make sense? How long have you been in the house, and how much have you put into it already? Is there anyone else on the title? Are you a trustee? We’ll determine all the baseline facts so we both know everything salient before starting this project together. If we have the luxury and you aren’t in a hurry, we’ll also strategically pick the time that we’ll go on the market based on a variety of factors that we’ll discuss in more detail.

When you feel ready to progress, we’ll sign a listing agreement. Then we’ll consult on what renovations (updating kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, paint, refreshing the garden, etc) will raise the value of the home and get you the best return on your investment. I’ll collect bids for the work we agree on, get your approval, and then manage the projects until they’re complete. We’ll simultaneously be getting inspections done on the home, I’ll be walking you through the necessary seller disclosures, and we’ll be creating your list of seller improvements. This process of creating a packet of materials for buyers – known as the disclosure packet – will help us begin to craft the narrative of this house and the story we’ll tell in marketing.

Scelerisque felis imperdiet proin fermentum. Neque vitae tempus quam pellentesque nec. Purus non enim praesent elementum facilisis leo vel

When you fall in love, we’ll be ready. We’ll have reviewed all the paperwork included with the offer in advance, so there will be no surprises on offer day. Our goal will likely be to make a non-contingent offer (and I’ll explain this more when we talk in person), so we’ll have reviewed the home’s disclosure packet and possibly pre-inspected so that removing contingencies is feasible and comfortable for you. In the preceding days, I’ll research what comparable homes recently sold for in the area. I’ll advise on where I believe the sale will land and what I suggest you offer to be a strong contender, but you, of course, will choose the final number. When I submit, we’ll craft the narrative together of who you are and why you love the home, and then I’ll be your fierce advocate through negotiations. Every transaction and negotiation process is a little different – that’s what makes this job so exciting – but what remains the same is that if you want the house, I’ll do everything in my power to make it yours.

When you’ve won your home, we’ll celebrate, maybe cry, and then I’ll open escrow. We’ll review this process in much more detail, and will revisit the topic many times, but in summary we’ll enter the period of transferring funds and title between buyer and seller. I’ll be there to shepherd you through this phase – mostly a lot of Docusign emails – and answer all of your questions along the way. And finally, when the deed has recorded, I’ll meet you to deliver the keys for your new home, so that you can begin your wonderful new chapter. ♡
