Seller Frequently Ask Questions

  • What’s the first step to selling my home?

    Schedule a Strategy Session. We’ll assess your home, review the market, and create a customized plan to prepare, price, and promote your property.

  • How do you determine the right asking price?

    We perform a detailed market analysis and compare your home to similar recent sales to ensure it’s competitively priced to attract buyers and maximize your return.

  • What are typical seller costs at closing?

    Sellers usually cover agent commissions, title transfer fees, and agreed-upon repairs or credits.

  • How long will it take to sell my home?

    It depends on market conditions and pricing, but many homes sell within 30–60 days when priced correctly.

  • Do I need to stage my home before listing?

    Staging isn’t always required but can help your home sell faster and for more. We offer staging tips and recommendations as part of our listing services.

  • Should I make repairs before listing?

    It depends. Minor fixes (leaky faucets, paint, loose handles) are smart. Bigger projects should be weighed against cost and ROI.

  • What’s the difference between list price and sale price?

    List price is what you’re asking. Sale price is what the buyer actually pays after negotiations.

  • Can I sell my home if I still have a mortgage?

    Yes. Your remaining balance will be paid off at closing from the sale proceeds.

  • What happens if my home doesn’t sell quickly?

    You may need to adjust price, staging, or marketing. Market conditions also play a role.

  • Do I need to disclose issues with my home?

    Yes. Sellers must disclose known defects or problems to avoid legal issues later.

  • Can I reject an offer?

    Yes. You can reject or counter any offer that doesn’t meet your terms.

  • How are multiple offers handled?

    Your agent will present all offers, and you can choose the best terms (not always the highest price).
