Determining the selling price of your home involves evaluating comparable properties in your area, current market trends, and your home's unique features. I offer a complimentary home valuation service to help identify the competitive pricing strategy needed to achieve your selling goals.
Partnering with an experienced local real estate agent provides invaluable insights into market trends, strategic marketing, and skilled negotiation. My proactive approach and tailored marketing plan aim to attract qualified buyers quickly and efficiently.
The optimal time to sell your home can vary depending on market conditions, but generally, spring and early summer are considered prime seasons as buyers are more active. However, it's crucial to analyze specific local real estate trends. Feel free to contact me, and we can discuss the best timing for your area to maximize home sale value.
The home selling process involves several steps, including pricing, marketing, negotiating, and closing. But don't worry, I guide each of my clients through this process with clarity and confidence for a seamless experience.
The length of time it takes to sell a property can vary depending on a number of factors, such as the location, condition, and price of the property, as well as market conditions. I work diligently to market your property and find the right buyer as quickly as possible.
Preparing your home includes decluttering, depersonalizing, and making necessary repairs. An inviting curb appeal can significantly impact your home's selling potential. As your local Realtor, I can provide a comprehensive checklist tailored to enhance your home’s appeal to prospective buyers.
Sellers typically pay the agent commissions (split between listing and buyer’s agents) and may also cover some closing costs.

Once you accept an offer, the home goes under contract. The buyer will typically schedule a home inspection, finalize their mortgage, and complete an appraisal. During this time, both parties work to satisfy any contingencies in the contract. After everything is cleared, you’ll head to closing to sign paperwork and officially transfer ownership.
Before we start touring homes, it’s important to have a few things in place. First, getting pre-approved for a mortgage helps clarify your budget and shows sellers you're serious. It’s also a good idea to create a list of your must-haves and nice-to-haves—this helps me tailor the search to what matters most to you. Lastly, we'll need to have a signed buyer broker agreement before I can show you any properties.
There are a variety of financing options available for property purchases, such as traditional mortgages, FHA loans, and VA loans. I can connect you with local lenders to help you find the best financing option for your needs.
Writing a strong offer involves several key elements: start with a fair price based on market research, include a pre-approval letter, offer a reasonable earnest money deposit, and be flexible with the closing date if possible. I will guide you to ensure your offer stands out.
It depends on the type of loan, but many buyers put down anywhere from 3% to 20%. Some loan programs even offer low or no down payment options.
Closing costs typically range from 2% to 5% of the purchase price and can include lender fees, title insurance, and other expenses. Your lender will walk you through all the numbers upfront, so you’ll know exactly what to expect.
Once you’re under contract, the process usually takes 30–45 days. The timeline can vary depending on the market, financing, and inspections.
No, once you sign a buyer broker agreement, you’re committed to working with that agent. It ensures your agent is fully dedicated to helping you find the right home.
A Buyer Broker Agreement is a contract between you (the buyer) and a real estate agent. It outlines the services the agent will provide and confirms that they’re working in your best interest. It also means you agree to work exclusively with that agent during your home search. This agreement helps build a committed partnership and ensures you get the full support and guidance you need throughout the buying process.
A buyer’s agent represents your interests throughout the home buying process. They help you find homes that fit your needs, schedule showings, negotiate offers, and guide you through inspections, financing, and closing. Their job is to protect your best interests and make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
A listing agent works with homeowners to sell their property. They help set the right price, market the home, coordinate showings, negotiate with buyers, and manage the details of the transaction through closing.
