SELLING YOUR HOME

---

Choosing to sell your home is a big decision-- but it doesn't have to be overwhelming. Start by preparing your home to be appealing to perspective buyers. Making necessary repairs, tidying the space, and proper staging can make all the difference in your home's perceived value.

Second, determine whether or not you will need to hire a REALTOR®. While selling your own home is an option, a REALTOR® can help you navigate the process and provide guidance on the ins and outs of selling your house

Picking a reputable REALTOR® is crucial. Reading agent reviews and speaking with potential realtors ensures you will find an agent who is best able to represent you in achieving your real estate goals. 

Realtors have the expertise and experience to help you price your home correctly, market it effectively, and negotiate the best possible price and terms for you. They have access to multiple listing services (MLS) and other marketing channels to promote your home to a wider audience of potential buyers, and can handle the time-consuming tasks involved in selling a home, such as scheduling showings, holding open houses, and handling paperwork. Additionally, REALTOR® have a network of contacts, including other agents and potential buyers, that can help generate interest in your home. Ultimately, using a REALTOR® can help you sell your home more efficiently, effectively, and for a better price than trying to do it on your own. 

 Selling your home requires a strategic approach. Overpricing can result in a lengthy time on the market, while underpricing can mean leaving potential profits on the table. Therefore, it is important to price your home correctly to ensure a successful sale. 

 Our top priority is to help you set a list price that accurately reflects the market value of your property.  Our team then crafts a personalized listing to highlight the unique features of your home.  Once you approve the listing, we add your property to HAR (Houston Association of REALTORS®) and syndicate it across thousands of home listing services to maximize its exposure to potential buyers. 

Putting a  "For Sale" sign in the front yard is only the beginning. Collaborating with a  REALTOR® can provide you with the exposure required to stand out from the competition.  We provide:

• Professional photos
• Social media promotions
• Custom marketing materials
• Both broker and public open houses

 With our proven marketing strategies, we guarantee that your home will not go unnoticed. We continuously gather feedback and offer regular updates to guide you through the selling process. 

 As your real estate agent, we work collaboratively with you to stage your home and provide guidance on meeting buyers' expectations.  Creating a warm and inviting atmosphere by turning on lights, opening blinds, and keeping the space clean creates an appealing atmosphere for potential buyers.  We also streamline the process of scheduling showings to make it as convenient as possible for you. 

 Congratulations! You have received one or more offers, and it's time to start negotiating. Prepare yourself for several rounds of negotiations regarding the sale price, contract terms, and any items that will remain in the home. Our team will work diligently to ensure a seamless transition out of your property. 

 After accepting the contract, you are one step closer to closing the deal. The process can feel overwhelming with buyer inspections, earnest money, and document preparation, but your  REALTOR® is here to help, keeping you informed throughout each step. On the day of closing, you will sign the deed, the buyer will sign a new mortgage, and the old loan will be paid off while establishing a new one.
