Advice for Home Sellers

To sell your home, you'll need more than ads and signs. When you work with me, you will receive top-notch, priority service. As your agent, I will be your advisor and your negtiator. I will assist you throughout the selling process. When working with you to sell your home, our goals will  be:

  • To obtain the best possible price for your home
  • Negotiate the most favorable terms
  • Secure a buyer in the shortest period of time
  • Relieve you of the stress and inconvenience that can occur when selling a home


More than half of all houses are sold before the buyers even get out of their cars. So stand across the street from your house and review its curb appeal.

OUTSIDE:

  • Sweep front walkway.
  • Remove newspapers, bikes and toys.
  • Park extra cars away from the property.
  • Keep your Shurbs Trimmed Neatly.
  • Apply fresh clean paint throughout.
  • Clean windows and window coverings throughout.
  • Keep plumbing and all appliances in working order.
  • Maintain all sealants (window, tub, shower, sink, etc.) in good condition.
  • Make sure roof and gutters are in good condition; no repairs needed.
  • Mow the lawn more frequently and plant flowers.
  • Keep pet areas clean.

INSIDE:

  • Kitchen and bathrooms should shine.
  • Clean Oven and other Kitchen Appliances
  • Carpets should be clean.
