Making the smart move of choosing a REALTOR® is your first step to ensuring that your investment in your home pays off.

What I will do for you
Getting the highest price
Closing Costs

As Your Agent, I Will:
  • Complete a comparative market analysis that will compare your home's value to that of your neighbors.  With this information, together, we will determine your listing price.
  • Provide you a Sellers Net Proceeds Estimate, its one thing to know what you can sell for, its everything to know what you will actually profit from the sale.
  • Compile a comprehensive plan detailing all the efforts I will employ to sell your home, including Internet and local media and when I will do them. 
  • Present your home to as many qualified buyers as possible getting your home maximum exposure.  For instance my web site generates 100’s of potential clients on a regular basis; your listing will be advertised to my REGISTERED buyers IMMEDIATELY!
  • Help you stage your home and generate curb appeal to ensure you get the highest price.  There are so many little things about a home that can get over-looked and can easily cost you hundreds (or worse thousands) of dollars in negotiations if not corrected before the buyer gets there.  Together we will walk your home and make a list of all the possible objections a buyer may have for not buying your home or offering you a fair market price for it, together we will tackle as many of these as you can.
  • Assist with obtaining offers and help you in negotiating the best deal as smoothly as possible.  Before accepting the offer you need to understand not only what you are getting and when but what you are obligated to do to get it.  So often I hear that sellers didn’t understand what they were getting into when signing the offer and later regretted the decision.  This will never be the case while working with me, before you sign off on anything I make sure that all the terms and conditions are thoroughly explained and are acceptable!
  • Help you find your next home and answer all of your questions about the local market area, including schools, neighborhoods, the local economy, and more.  I will now apply these same tools we used to get you the highest possibly price for your home to help get the best possible deal on your next home.
  • Provide you with a Customer Satisfaction Guarantee, if for any reason you are not satisfied with the level of service you are receiving you can cancel your listing with me!

Getting the Highest Price for Your Home

Curb appeal is key and could make a difference whether people stop and take a flyer, or drive right by. Here are a few tips to increase the curb appeal of your home. Staging your home is important. Many buyers will stay in your home longer if it's staged appropriately. I have compiled some ideas to present your home in the most effective manner.

Closing Costs to Expect:

  • Title insurance fees depend on the sales price of the home.
  • Broker's commission is a full-service fee and will cost anywhere between 5% to 7%.
  • Local property transfer tax, country transfer tax, state transfer tax, and state capital gains tax are the charges that you'll pay for the privilege of selling your home. Credit to the buyer of unpaid real estate taxes for the prior or current year are variable and depend on when you close and when your taxes are due.
  • FHA fees and costs are all fees are now negotiable between an FHA buyer and seller.
  • Home inspections fees are in some circumstances paid for by the seller and include pest, radon and other inspections.
  • Miscellaneous fees can accrue from correcting problems noticed during the home inspection.
