Seller's Guide

What do you want to accomplish with the sale of your home? And what is most important to you—pricing, timing or convenience? Do you need to make a certain amount of money in order to upgrade to a larger or nicer home? Do you need to sell as quickly as possible to facilitate a move to a new city or area? Your goals and needs will play into the overall marketing strategy that Lauren develops for your home.

If you’ve kept your home in showroom condition since you’ve lived in it, you’re in the minority of homeowners. Lauren will work with you to build a personalized plan for fetching the highest ROI for your property. Prepping your house for market is key. Your plan may include getting rid of clutter, depersonalizing the space, making repairs and/or cosmetic updates, deep cleaning and staging to make sure your home has its best foot forward. 

Receiving an offer is an exciting part of the process, but it doesn’t mean the journey is over. Lauren will evaluate each offer to make sure the Buyer is financially qualified and that their offer is acceptable to you. Lauren may recommend countering terms of the offer to try to arrive at terms that put you in the strongest possible position.

In order to get to the closing table, you must make it through many contingencies. Contingencies typically include an inspection period, title work, a survey and an appraisal, among other hurdles. Lauren will help you navigate contingencies and continue to negotiate on your behalf.
