Home Selling Process: Step-by-Step Guide

1. Initial Consultation

Your journey begins with a no-obligation consultation where we:

  • Understand your reasons for selling and your ideal timeline.
  • Discuss your property’s current market conditions.
  • Answer your questions about the process and explain what to expect.

  • Analyzing local market trends, such as supply and demand.
  • Considering your home’s unique features and upgrades.
  • Providing you with a detailed Comparative Market Analysis (CMA).

3. Pre-Listing Preparation
