Our strategy for getting your home listed is proven to get you top dollar. Sound too good to be true? Check out the case study below that closed in August 2024 for $15,000 above recent model matches.
Selling your home is a big decision. We know people sell for various reason (life changes, finances, job relocations), and no matter what the reasoning behind the sale, we know it's important to our clients to get top dollar. Just an extra $5,000 or $10,000 more is the difference between a bigger down payment on the next house, paying off debt, being able to afford necessities while not working, and so much more.
This is why we take the time to be different. We help you get your home ready so that we attract the right buyers who will see the value and pay top dollar.
Here's a recent case study - 6320 Mallard Court
For us, the first step is always finding out what a seller is selling so we can know what is important to them. Is it money? Is it timing? Every situation is unique and requires a different timeline and level of care.
The sellers of Mallard Court were long-time clients who were thinking about buying a new home. They didn't want to sell until they found a house they wanted. They had a certain number they wanted for their house - $710,000 - which would make theirs the highest sold for their model. While we'd never guarantee that
We previewed their house once we learned about their plans to give them some direction on what they needed to do to get their home ready for market.
- Recommendations for what clean-up and fix-it items are needed to make the home show it's best (i.e. landscape refresh, window cleaning, carpet cleaning, handyman hit list)
- Recommend and schedule vendors
- Provide light staging to freshen up the home and make certain areas pop. Because most professional stagers won't stage homes that aren't vacant, our light staging option is a great way to get the home looking its best. We can bring in bedding, towels, accessories, and rugs to bring spaces together. We will also make suggestions on what should be removed to declutter the home and simplify spaces.
- We always hire professional photographer to make a listing look it's best. They know the best lighting and angles to get the best photos
After only two weeks on the market (less than half of the average DOM for our area), the house went pending with a very strong offer that gave them the price and the terms they needed to get their new home.
6320 Mallard Court went into escrow on July 19th and closed 30 days later on August 19th with a negotiated rent back that gave the sellers time to close on their purchase and move in.
The price they got exceeded their original $710,000 goal and was well above the sold prices for the model matches in their neighborhood.
6320 Mallard Court closed on 8/19/2024 for $715,000
