Here are my top tips to sell your home for top dollar and quickly in the 2023 Seattle real estate market:

Call me to Schedule an Appointment

Online platforms like Redfin and Zillow cannot accurately assess the true value of your home. Sitting down and discussing your goals, doing a walk through of your home, and creating a timeline of how quickly you’d like your home to sell will give me the information I need to perform an accurate CMA.

Get Ready

Now more than ever, having a home that is properly prepared to sell is important. When we meet, we’ll go over what it will take to get your home ready; the pros and cons of staging, renovations, and repairs, and the potential impact all of this will have to your bottom line- both positively and negatively.

Offer a Pre Inspection

I love offering buyers the pre inspection and sewer scope before they ask for it. It is one step toward managing expectations of both parties, and it shows that you are a serious and honest seller.

Declutter and Stage Your Home to Put it’s Best Foot Forward

Depersonalizing a home is a must! Have you ever walked into a home to find yourself overly curious about the gallery of family pictures that line the staircase? You don’t want buyers to miss the house because of your stuff. Depersonalizing your home and staging it so buyers can imagine themselves there goes a long way.

Maximize Curb Appeal

What did you grandmother tell you about first impressions? Well, it applies to selling your home as well. The excitement begins with the pictures that a potential buyer sees- this draws them to your home. And nothing beats pulling up to a house and becoming stary eyed. Awesome curb appeal will do this. It is also an indication of home care and integrity.

Go Above and Beyond with Pictures

Having professional pictures of the home is a must, and not all photographers are of equal talent. Taking good pictures is great, but taking a picture that showcases the best qualities and captures the heart of the home in its best light takes real talent. I use a team of photographers that are gifted in capturing the best in a home.
