Thinking of Selling Your Home?
Let’s take the stress out of the process with these 10 essential steps.

1. Define Your Goals
Why and when do you want to sell? Motivation influences strategy. Spring often sees faster sales, but there are always buyers in the market. Let’s talk about your goals and map out the best plan.

2. Find the Right Realtor
Look for a Realtor who knows your area well. Interview candidates to ensure they understand the market, have a solid track record, and offer a strong marketing plan tailored to your home.

3. Sign a Listing Agreement with Me
This authorizes me and our brokerage to market your property. It outlines our working relationship, provides listing details, and forms the basis for offers. With this, we’re ready to begin attracting buyers.

4. Set the Right Price
An accurate price is key to drawing in the right buyers. I’ll conduct a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) to find the ideal price based on recent sales, active listings, and market trends in your area.

5. Choose a Lawyer
A lawyer will handle the title transfer and help ensure a smooth transaction. I can provide recommendations, and our Completion Costs Guide details any costs you may expect.

6. Prepare Your Home for Viewings
Small improvements make a big difference! Declutter, clean, and add simple updates like new handles or a fresh coat of paint to boost appeal.

7. Let Me Market Your Home
With a mix of traditional media, MLS, online listings, and open houses, I’ll maximize your home’s exposure. My comprehensive marketing plan outlines each step to attract the right buyers.

8. Organize Your Finances
Check if your mortgage is portable, if it can be assumed, or if any discharge penalties apply. Speaking with your mortgage broker or accountant can clarify any financial considerations.

9. Review Offers
I’ll guide you through evaluating every offer, negotiating effectively, and navigating emotions with professionalism. Together, we’ll assess each offer and counter as needed for a successful outcome.

10. Closing the Deal
Once we’ve negotiated a favorable offer, notify your lawyer and start addressing any conditions. Inform utility providers, transfer services, contact your insurance agent, and arrange for a moving company.

Congratulations! You’ve sold your home, and I’m thrilled to have been a part of your journey!
