01

Market Evaluation

Review your home's condition and research recent neighborhood sales to understand current demand and price points.

02

Choose Your Path

Partner with a local agent for market expertise and MLS access, or prepare to manage marketing and contracts as a FSBO.

03

Prepare the Home

Declutter, deep-clean, and make cosmetic repairs. Staging helps attract more buyers and potentially higher offers.

04

Set Listing Price

Use a comparative market analysis (CMA) to set a price that balances maximum return with high buyer interest.

List & Market

Launch your property on the MLS and major platforms with professional photos and compelling descriptions.

Showings & Open Houses

Coordinate viewings to let prospective buyers experience your home. Be flexible with timing to maximize visibility.

Review & Negotiate

Evaluate offers based on price, contingencies, and financing. Negotiate the best possible terms for your sale.

08

Under Contract

Navigate the buyer's inspection and appraisal. You may negotiate repairs or credits based on the results.

09

Closing & Transfer
