Selling Your Home

Selling your home takes preparation, organization and professional marketing. It's one of your most valuable assets, and the process should not feel overwhelming.

My goal is simple: to take the pressure off by keeping you informed at every step, from our first conversation to closing day.

Please tell me about the property you're looking to sell, using the form below or by contacting me directly. Let's get started.

What to Expect

  1. Find the right REALTOR® for you. Ask a friend, family member, or the agent who helped you buy your home. Interview a couple of options and choose the one you trust.
  2. Sign a listing agreement. This authorizes me and my brokerage to market and sell your home, and sets out the terms of our work together.
  3. Set your price and prepare your home. We'll land on a fair market value together, and I'll help you get your home ready to show its best.
  4. I market your home. This means professional photography, MLS® exposure, online marketing, open houses, and my relationships with other REALTORS®.
  5. Review offers together. Every offer that comes in gets shared with you. I'll walk you through your options, accept, reject, or counter, so you can decide with confidence.
  6. Close the deal. Once an offer is accepted, I'll help you satisfy any remaining conditions. On closing day, your lawyer or notary finalizes the details and you receive your proceeds.

Costs to Plan For

  • Commission
  • Property tax adjustments
  • Final maintenance and utility costs
  • Lawyer or notary fees for handling the paperwork
  • Costs of clearing the title, including discharge fees and any prepayment penalties
  • Insurance, maintained until you receive your proceeds or vacate the property, whichever comes later
  • Moving costs

Ask me about any of these when we talk through the numbers for your home.
