As your most important financial transaction, we will treat the listing of your home with the care, diligence, and expertise it demands.
Are you ready to sell your home?
Private showings and open houses provide opportunities for buyers to view your property. Ideally, you will want them to be impressed by what they see – and motivated to make an offer.
Don’t worry about all the details. We take care of all aspects of scheduling showings, as well as planning and hosting open houses. Obviously, we encourage you to be as flexible as you can, as that will enable more buyers to preview your property.
As your real estate team, we ensure we maximize the potential of every private showing and open house. To accomplish that, we advise you on how best to prepare your property, we market it to qualified buyers, and draw their attention to the great qualities of your house.

How do You Determine Your Asking Price?
You obviously want to sell your house for the highest possible price. You may even have a number in mind.
How do you determine if that number is reasonable? If you list your house too high, few buyers, if any, will see it.
Don’t worry. We’re experts at creating a pricing strategy that will draw the interest of qualified buyers. We’re also specialists in the local market. We know what properties like yours sell for.
We begin by getting to know your property and all its desirable features. Then we make some calculations to determine its Current Market Value. That value is based, on what similar houses in the area have sold for recently.
Of course, buyers won’t pay for the sentimental value you place on your house. But special features such as hardwood floors, a newly renovated kitchen or bathroom, or a beautiful backyard patio or pool can have an impact on how quickly a property sells and for what price. We’ll help you understand all the factors that go into setting the list price, and ensuring it is just right for the marketplace.
How Do You Attract Qualified Buyers?
When you list your house, it must attract the attention of qualified buyers eager to get into a property like yours. Otherwise, your house may take longer to sell and you may not get the price you expected.
As experts in the local market, we can get the word out about your listing to all the right people. We know how to attract serious buyers – so a good offer comes in quickly.
To achieve that success, we’ll implement the appropriate marketing plan. We’ll work closely with you to create a marketing plan which may include some or all of the following:
Taking pictures and gathering the details on your property;
Writing a compelling property profile and creating effective marketing materials;
Uploading your listing to MLS – the Multiple Listing Service that real estate agents and buyers use to search for properties;
Showcasing your listing on our website;
Use the internet and social media to promote your listing;
Scheduling and promoting an Open House
Our job is to get the right buyers to see your house, fall in love with it, and make an offer.
Ensure Showings and Open Houses are Successful
Although we do most of the work, there are a few things you can do to make showings more successful:
Complete any outstanding minor repairs.
Always open all window coverings and leave lights (including lamps) on.
Declutter and deep clean all rooms (closets and cabinets included).
Remove personal items such as family pictures and make sure your house is neat and clean.
Stage rooms as they are intended to be used (a dinning room with a table and chairs).
Do not forget the outside, curb appeal is your first impression!
If possible, remove your pets and have a place to go. Buyers are more comfortable if they can view the property without you there.
