Sellers
Selling your home.
A practical plan for pricing, preparing, and presenting your home.
The process
A sale planned from the house outward.
-
Goals and timing
Your next move and ideal timeline shape every decision that follows.
-
Pricing with context
Recent comparable sales and current competition, adjusted for your home’s condition, updates, and location. A judgment about the market, not an automated estimate.
-
Preparation that pays attention
Walk the home together and sort potential work into worth doing, optional, and skip, with realistic scope and timing.
-
Presentation and marketing
Photography, an accurate description, and showing preparation so the home’s real strengths come through.
-
Offers and closing
Compare offers on more than price, then coordinate inspection responses, appraisal, and escrow through closing.
Preparation
Where a builder’s eye helps before you list.
Starting points for a conversation, not a checklist.
Often worth considering
- Visible deferred maintenance buyers and inspectors will notice
- Small repairs that remove easy objections
- Paint, lighting, and landscaping touch-ups
- Records of past repairs, permits, and upgrades
Often worth a second thought
- Major remodels started shortly before listing
- Highly personal finish choices
- Projects that can’t be finished well before listing
- Cosmetic work that hides a problem instead of fixing it
Thinking about selling?
Start with a conversation about your home, its condition, and recent comparable sales.
