THE APPROACH

How we go about selling your home from beginning to end.

ASSESS We'll give your home a good once over, make a list of everything we think needs to be addressed before listing, including small and large renovations, landscaping, tidying and small updates that could mean a better return.

PREPARE Once we've agreed on the tasks that need to be done, we'll get to work on getting your home ready for sale. This usually includes staging, small repairs, and storing personal items to make your home as neutral as possible.

SELL Once your home is in tip-top shape, we're ready to hit the market. Our unique selling strategy includes open houses, social media marketing, virtual walkthroughs, and print marketing that reach audiences far and wide.

They took care of everything, from helping stage to small repairs, and our home sold for over asking, I mean she knows how to sell! "

-Ralph Duncan

Let's talk money. Where it goes, how it's divided and who get's what.

We believe in full transparency when it comes to commission after all you should know where your money is going and why. There's a big misconception that realtors take home the percentage listed on the

agreement.

THE FAQS All of your questions answered!

how long does the process usually take? There are many factors which affect home sales, but our homes generally sell in less than 3 weeks on average.

What is a buyer vs seller market? A seller's market happens when there's a shortage in housing. A buyer's market occurs when there are more homes for sale than buyers.

what can I expect with open houses? We have strict systems in place where no one will be left alone in your home at any given time. Usually it's best if the seller's aren't present during an open house so buyers can feel more comfortable looking around.
