More Tips for Sellers!

I've shared my strategy for selling my client's homes before - tried and true methods to sell as quickly as possible and for as much as possible (see below).

Here are a few new, and every bit as important, tips that I'm adding...

  • Do Not unplug or turn off your refrigerator - Everyone opens the fridge when touring a home and finding it warm and smelly is a turnoff.

  • Do Not stop your utilities - I know, you aren't living there, so of course you don't want to pay for these services. But, the handyperson, painter or carpet install folks need your utilities (electricity, water and garbage) to do their jobs so that we can sell your home for top dollar!

  • You need more time than you think - We can't sell your home until everything is out (everything), the home is cleaned, painted, new flooring installed, etc. Packing up and moving everything you own out of your house is a huge undertaking and one that many think will go faster than it actually does . It doesn't go fast, it takes forever and I just want you to be prepared.

My Full-Service Approach to Selling Your Home

  • Experience - My years of experience listing and selling homes on BOTH sides of the lake (Seattle, Bothell, Redmond, Woodinville, Bellevue & more) gives the advantage to my clients.

  • Real Estate Market Analysis - I will review recently sold similar properties in the same area as your home. This analysis is performed to help you determine the best price to list when selling a home.

  • Home Evaluation - In addition to market analysis, I look at your home based on its characteristics and design details. Having local market knowledge helps me gauge what your home can sell for in today's market.

  • Professional Photography & Floor Plan Renderings - Prospective buyers LOVE to see images of homes they are interested in. That is why we want to show your home in its best light by providing professional photos & floor plans.

  • Home Staging Consultations & Services - Having viewed thousands of homes, I know that a well-staged home will always sell faster and for more money. I will provide a complimentary home staging consultation and if needed, refer you to a proven home staging service.

  • Make Necessary Updates & Improvements - Neutral paint colors, new flooring and updates where needed will help you sell your home quicker and for more. We'll discuss which improvements will benefit the sale of your home and which to avoid.

  • Best Home Sales Practices - To achieve success in selling your home, I focus on all of the above PLUS providing excellent communication, negotiation, and problem-solving skills.
