Sell Your Home

We are the Real Estate experts; it’s what we do. Beyond the expertise, we are about serving you to the greatest outcome for the sale of your house. We are a small brokerage with very low overhead so we don’t have to charge the high commissions the big box brokerages charge. And we pass those savings on to you.

You still receive the exceptional full service - just not the high commissions charged by the big reds, big blues, big hot air balloons and the odd, out-stretched arms brokerages. No gimmicks, no exorbitant fees, just honest, straight-forward reasonable rates.

Hire an Expert

Real Estate isn't all about contracts and signs. It’s about knowing homes; what works and what doesn't when selling. It’s knowing what the market is doing and why. It’s knowing the answers before the questions are asked or knowing where to find the answers quickly. Most importantly, it’s knowing and understanding people. We excel in all these areas and we bring this expertise to you as your Listing Brokerage. You choose experts for other services in your life for healthcare or legal advice, so don't settle for less than a full-time, experienced expert on what is most likely THE largest financial investment in your life!

Tips for preparing your home for selling

Fully preparing your home for sale can make a considerable difference in the time it takes to sell it. You can help eliminate buyer objections before they arise by making necessary repairs and improvements. These are some of the easiest and cost effective things to do to prepare a home for market.

Yard

  • Spruce up your garden and lawn; trim shrubbery and replace dead plants

  • Yard and patio should be neat; outdoor furniture should be clean and in good shape

  • Clean or paint your front door - remember first impressions last the longest!

  • Manicure your front yard; make sure your driveway and entryway are free of clutter

Exterior

  • Check that house numbers, mailbox, and exterior lighting are all in good condition

  • Touch up with fresh paint as needed

  • Inspect chimney for cracks

  • Repair loose trim, drain pipes and fencing

  • Clean stains and window screens

Garage

  • Remove clutter and tidy up the shelves

  • Clean/sweep the floor​

Living Areas

  • Apply fresh paint as needed...think about brightening your interiors with neutral-toned paint

  • Clean carpets

  • Replace burned out light bulbs

  • Clean the fireplace and remove any smoke stains from the wall and mantle

  • Clean window coverings

  • Replace damaged window blinds

Kitchen

  • STRONGLY consider painting the cabinets if they are out of date. See the before and after photos below!

  • Sinks, appliances and counter tops should sparkle; remove any clutter

Bathrooms

  • Clean mirrors, glass, chrome and porcelain surfaces

  • Doors and drawers should open and close easily

  • Shoes and clothes should be neatly arranged

Overall

  • Check the basics around the house. It takes just a minute to check all doors, windows and cabinets to make sure they don't stick, squeak or are too loose
