Why Sell traditionally with an agent?
Expertise:
One of the primary advantages of traditional listing is the expertise that real estate agents bring to the table. Agents have experience and in-depth knowledge of the local market, allowing them to price your home competitively and negotiate effectively.
Marketing:
Real estate agents have access to a wide network of potential buyers and other agents. They can market your property through multiple channels, including MLS listings, open houses, and online platforms, increasing its exposure to potential buyers.
Negotiation Skills:
Negotiating the best deal for your home is crucial, and experienced agents excel in this area. They can navigate through offers, counteroffers, and contingencies to ensure you get the best possible price.

Things a Seller Needs to Know
Things a Seller Needs to Know
1. DON’T INVEST IN BIG RENOVATIONS
Before you start making big changes to your home, ask yourself whether or not you’ll get back the money that you’re putting in. Most of the time, you won’t. Instead, make smaller changes, like new paint and fixtures, that will improve the first impression your home makes on potential sellers.
2. MAKE IT APPEAL TO THE MASSES
You love all of your furnishings and decor, but if they make your house stand out too much, they may be a distraction to buyers. A general rule of thumb is to pack away all your personal items, such as family photos, and remove as much as you can from your kitchen and bathroom countertops. If you’re not sure whether you’ve staged your home as effectively as you can, get your most critical friend or family member to give you their honest opinion.
3. CURB APPEAL
Did you know that curb appeal will help your home sell quicker? curb appeal is a huge game changer!
ACCORDING TO investopedia “Curb-appeal projects make the property look good as soon as prospective buyers arrive. While these projects may not add a considerable amount of monetary value, they will help your home sell faster—and you can do a lot of the work yourself to save money and time.”
3. MAKE IT EASY TO ACCESS
Sales is a numbers game—the more people who see your house, the more likely it is to sell quickly and at a good price. If you want a lot of people to see your house, be prepared to show it with little to no notice. Keep the house clean at all times. If you have pets, plan to take them out of the house while your house is being shown.
Nobody likes to be sold to. When buyers come to your house, they want to be able to make a thorough and honest evaluation of your home. They can’t do it with you and your family there. It’s not always easy, but be sure to leave before potential buyers come to see your home.
The majority of home buyers now start their research online. If you don’t have a GOOD NUMBER of high-resolution photos of your house, you may be missing out on enticing some potential buyers.
You may have been advised to wait until spring to sell your home. While it’s true that most home sales happen then, people need to buy houses all year. If you list your house during a slower time of year, you may get more traffic because buyers have fewer options to look at.
You can only sell your house once, so it’s tempting to try to set as high a price as possible. Before you do it, consider what houses in your neighborhood are selling for and how long they’re staying on the market. Your buyer’s bank will do an appraisal before they close on the sale. If the appraised value of your home is less than what you’re selling it for, your sale could potentially fall through. Your agent should be able to offer sound advice on pricing your home based on the latest market data.

How much is my
property worth?
We’ve all seen those online home valuations. They do provide a good starting point and offer a general estimate of your property’s worth. However, they may not factor in recent renovations, unique features, historical value, architectural significance, and subjective market perception that could impact your home’s actual market value. For the most accurate assessment, consider scheduling an in-person market analysis with me.
MARKET VALUE OF YOUR HOME?
The true market value is the price your home would sell for in the current housing market. It is determined by a real estate agent or a seller and buyer during the negotiation process. It is crucial for real estate transactions and avoids overpaying or underpaying for the home.
HOW IS THE VALUATION OF MY HOME CALCULATED?
The value of your home is calculated using a combination of factors including its location, age, square footage, condition of the home, any improvements or renovations made, and recent sale prices of comparable homes in the neighborhood, and market trends.
