“We continue to see a flurry of activity in a market that has not allowed the pandemic to have a continued effect,” observed Mike Grady, president and COO at Coldwell Banker Bain. “Case in point: in January, the median sales price for the entire NWMLS was $422,750 and it is now $490,000— a 15.9% surge in eight months. At the same time, we have nearly half as many months of inventory now than April— just four months ago. “The competition for buyers continues to be relentless, but luckily, much lower interest rates offer some relief.”

In the Seattle area, prices for the most affordable homes are still increasing the most rapidly. Prices for homes under $446,909 rose just under 10%, year-over-year, while prices for the most expensive homes—those over $667,808 — rose by close to 5% compared to last year. Prices for homes between those two points rose by roughly 7%.

6 STEPS TO SUCCESSFULLY SELLING YOUR HOME Step 1: Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) To get an accurate picture of market activity in your area, you’ll get a report that looks at houses similar to yours in size, location and features, whether they’re for sale, have sold, are pending or failed to sell. Understanding the realities of the current market allows us to accurately assess your home and arrive at a price that properly positions your home for a successful sale. • Review all market activity in your immediate neighborhood (Active listings, pending, pending Inspection and sold etc.) • Review condition of each home, specifically kitchen and baths; updates, view or no view, privacy, waterfront, acreage etc. • Review Title and Tax Records

6 STEPS TO SUCCESSFULLY SELLING YOUR HOME Step 2: Preparation Today’s sophisticated buyers expect the properties they view to be pictureperfect and move-in ready. Properly staged homes not only put a home’s best foot forward but also help buyers see themselves in the property. I have worked with my network of staging professionals, electricians, painters, contractors, and other service people, for years and whom are trusted and reliable. They will help to make your home a must-have for buyers! Deep Cleaning – Behind the fridge all the places we only clean once or twice a decade! Outside of Home – Clean window and gutters prior to photo shoot; clean carpets. Yard & Garden areas – Spruced up with seasonal, fragrant flowers; we want to hit all the senses!
10
Inspection and Sewer Scope Install Sign – Contact sign company and call 811 to mark all utilities so that sign can be installed. Review the Purchase & Sale Terms – Prior to being live we review the Purchase & Sale Terms together so that you understand the details & are comfortable moving forward.

Always put your best foot forward; I work with the best in the business—my photographers, drone operators, videographers, stagers and landscapers share the same high standards and understand that presentation is everything! Buyers buy houses they fall in love with. Beautiful staging, stunning photography and engaging videos combine to make emotional connections that sell homes.

6 STEPS TO SUCCESSFULLY SELLING YOUR HOME Step 4: Go live! • Schedule showings with Show time • Virtual Open Houses • Cleaning materials and instructions inside front door. (*Ask me about our Covid-19 precautions) • I interact with all agents showing, answering questions about neighborhood, HOA, nearest schools, grocery, etc • I will vet each buyer by speaking with their lender—making certain that they have been pre-approved and ideally underwritten

6 STEPS TO SUCCESSFULLY SELLING YOUR HOME Step 5: MUTUAL ACCEPTANCE When both sides have agreed to the terms outlined in the Purchase and Sale contract we get Mutual Acceptance. Now, we work through all contingencies:
14
• Inspection, Title, Financing, HOA Review where applicable and Covid-19 addenda
• Appraisal is ordered and conducted for offers that have a financing contingency
• I create a calendar to keep track of each item and timeline for the seller and my team.
• Walk through—buyer has the right to walk through your home within 5-days of closing
•
Inspection is the second opportunity to negotiate if anything needs attention or repairs
•
•
You will be speaking with me a great deal during this period. This is a critical time where You must be available to make decisions and move quickly in order to meet the closing date
• Make arrangements with Escrow to wire funds into your desired account
I will arrange a convenient time for you to sign closing papers; usually one day prior to the closing date.
