When selling your home, I walk you through each stage of the process so there are minimal surprises, enabling you to make informed, thoughtful decisions.
MY MARKETING
Preparation, marketing and pricing in this market are all vital for a smooth sale. And standing out from the crowd is becoming more and more necessary. I begin marketing your property from day 1 to maximize exposure through my expansive network; Using professional photos, video, flyers, social media, targeted ads, open houses and much more to best market your unique home and your specific goals.
MY SERVICE
Serving my clients is a passion of mine plus I strive to go above and beyond expectations; don’t just take my word for it - take a peek at my before and after gallery and read some of my Rave Reviews from my clients to see how I've helped others.
MY APPROACH
I can help by coordinating any landscaping, staging, repair estimates and provide professional contractor recommendations needed to best present your home to the market – first impressions are everything after all. Naturally, a homeowner knows their home best, so with your help I can create a marketing campaign utilizing video, photos and storytelling to "paint the picture" to attract the ideal buyers to your home. Sticking to our timeline and saving you time and money are my top priorities. Your goal becomes my goal and I know how to get us there.

WHAT ARE YOUR PRIORITIES?
GIVE THESE QUESTIONS SOME THOUGHT BEFORE WE GET STARTED SO YOU'RE NOT CAUGHT OFF GUARD. I CAN HELP WITH THE BIG PICTURE AND THE SMALLER DETAILS.
How much is your home currently worth? How much do you expect to invest in your home to sell it for the best price?
Think about your history of your home, do you have all your records handy? What improvements have you made over the years? What issues have you had?
What is your timeframe? Would you like to be moved in to your new home before you start a new job? Or the kids are back in school? Consider the undertaking of packing up and setting up your new home.
Where are you moving to? Do you need help finding your next home? Do you have your needs in order so you can make a smooth transition to your new home?
How much do you owe on your home? Consider your proceeds before selling to be sure you're maximizing your investment.
What do you love about your home? What are your favorite things about living here? I can use these positives to help find your buyer.
