Frequently Asked Questions
What Expenses Do I Have When Selling My Home?
When you are selling a home in Bay County, it is customary for the seller to pay the documentary stamps on the deed (.007 of the purchase price) and all costs related to the Owner’s Title policy. An estimate will be provided for you. If you have owned the home less than 3 years, there will be a small credit on the title policy. It is customary in Walton County for the buyer to pay for the cost of the documentary stamps on the deed.
What Commission Do I Pay & Why?
Our commission structure is 6% total, and we share 50/50 with anyone who brings a buyer. It is important to us to be enticing to other Realtors. We spend much of our advertising dollars not just in reaching the general public but our fellows Realtors as well. Sometimes they are our best customers. We at Beachy Beach pride ourselves on having a great relationship with all other companies. Please note the commission may vary for land and/or commercial property.
When Do I Vacate The Property?
Unless otherwise noted on a contract, you are expected to be out upon closing. New owners typically do a walk-through either the day before or the day of closing. Once all parties have signed, the seller is expected to have vacated. The day of closing belongs to the buyer and home should be cleaned and ready for its new owner.
What Are Some Things That Will Make My Home Easier to Sell?
Curb Appeal is so important, and price is equally important. The first 30 days on the market are the best time to make a GREAT first impression. Clearing clutter, putting away personal photos, and making sure your home is bright and smelling fresh all play a vital role in selling your home. Staging your home for pictures and for ease of showing will be a great advantage in selling your home.
When Does My Sign Go Up?
Our professional Beachy Beach blue signs are easily recognized all over the community. In the State of Florida, we are required to pull a dig ticket and wait for it to clear before posting the sign. This takes approximately 3-5 business days. If you wish, we may put up a temporary sign until the post sign can legally go up. Please note that certain neighborhoods only allow special signage while some do not allow signs at all.
What if I Have a Security Camera?
As a courtesy to the brokerage, please inform us of any security systems including cameras. We take precautions such as putting a supra electronic box so we can monitor who has access to your property. While we understand the need for security measures, we also want to foster an inviting experience for the buyer as well as the agents.
How Do I Prepare for Professional Photos?
We only have one shot to make a great first impression. Since you are planning to move anyways, now would be a good time to go ahead and start boxing up your personal items such as photos, trinkets, knickknacks, and collections. We want the buyer to envision the property as “their home” and having a clean slate helps achieve this goal. Making sure the grass is cut and the weeds are clear will greatly improve the quality of the photos. We love animals, but it is important that all animal bowls, toys and accessories be stored away for pictures.
The day the photos will be taken, we will come to your property to help you prepare. Clear, clean counters and spaces photograph the best.
