Selling your house can feel overwhelming in multiple ways. You're pulling up roots and leaving all that's familiar — and making a huge financial decision at the same time. Knowing how to sell your home takes some studying up. The more you know, the easier the big decisions will be.

Information is power, so I’ll answer your questions about how to sell your home.

Research the Market

Do some homework on what's going on with the housing market in your area. You can use resources that give you an estimated valuation  Head to my website  but those are not the most accurate you are best to contact me and have a no-obligation conversation about the market, is it a sellers market a buyers market what are homes in your specific neighborhood selling for are some of the basics that we will discuss. Mortgage rates have a big impact on home sales do you know what the current rate is and what it means when buying and selling homes? 

Hire an Agent

Sale contracts, plus their addendums and disclosures all this paperwork can add up to mistakes. Mistakes can be costly, not just in terms of dollar value but in the law. With a realtor, any of these types of mistakes pass the repercussions off to the agent, and they won’t sit on sellers’ shoulders. 

Who would have the upper hand in a tough offer negotiation: a licensed, professional, experienced buyer’s agent who has done this dozens upon dozens of times in their career or a home-selling newbie who has an emotional attachment to the home? Never bring a fist to a gunfight.

Selling a home is a full-time job. For most people, they already have a full-time job. For agents, this is it. Getting people through the door while you are at work and not having to juggle your schedule to show the home is priceless. 

Yes, you need an agent. Selling a house involves some strategy and know-how. An agent knows how to sell your house. I will help you set a price, market it, and make repairs, guiding you through the inspection, negotiating with buyers, and helping you navigate the closing.
