STEPS TO SELL A HOME

Here are the top 10 steps to sell a home


TALK WITH A PROFESSIONAL

Meet Audrey to discuss pricing strategies and market statistics for your neighborhood. This is undoubtedly the most important first step however we will show you why.

AUDREY WILL REVIEW ANY UPGRADES YOU CAN DO, ALONG WITH TIPS TO GET THE MOST RETURN ON YOUR INVESTMENT. 

LIST PROPERTY COMING SOON 

List your property as a coming soon helps build hype about your property and gauge the market interest.

PREPARE  TO SELL

Getting your property prepared to sell is one of the best things you can do to get the most amount of money for your property. Buyers typically are willing to pay more for a property when it shows well.

PROFESSIONAL PHOTOS 

Real estate is much like online dating. Quality photos showcase the property in its best light and attract buyers to want to come to see your property, which ultimately leads to offers.

Now that your home is ready to list. Here are the steps to sell a home once it is listed!

SHOWINGS / OPEN HOUSES

It’s essential to have your house cleaned up and ready for showings. Check out our Sellers Checklist for a comprehensive list of things to do before showings or open houses. 

CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS

Once an offer is received, Audrey will review the terms and conditions of each offer with you. Always reviewing with you what options you have to accept, reject, or counter terms.  

IN ESCROW

The buyer will open escrow in good faith to execute the contract per the agreed terms. More on Things You Should Know About Escrow 

INSPECTION PERIOD

Typically the buyer will have a 10 day inspection period to perform their due diligence on the property. At the end of their inspection period, the buyer may ask for repairs. Audrey will review your options and prepare your response accordingly.

APPRAISAL

Next will be the appraisal. It is crucial to have a list of any upgrades you have done to provide to the appraiser. 

Market competence is not only important in the agent you pick but also for the appraiser. Particularly if the property is in a unique neighborhood, has solar, GREEN features, or anything out of the neighborhood norm.

CLOSING PROCESS

Once the title/escrow company has all signed documents and funds, they will release to record the new deed with the county accessors on the close of escrow day. There is no set time this will happen, so it is best to vacate the property the day before.
