Let’s Talk

01

Meet with me to discuss your plans and goals, trends in the current marketplace, and assess your property’s qualities and characteristics. I will analyze comparable property sales, assess the competition, work with you to determine pricing strategy, and outline a strategic plan to achieve the best possible result for you as a seller.

Setting the Stage

02

From applying a fresh coat of paint to rearranging furniture, your / I will ensure that the property is visually ready for showing. I will schedule a professional photoshoot, commission an illustrative floor plan, and prepare a listing description. At this time, we should also sit down and complete the Seller Disclosure documents that will be necessary.

Going Live

03

The listing is broadcast on Compass.com and sent across our 100+ partner sites for the duration of the selling process.

Spreading the Word

04

The Compass marketing team produces beautiful print collateral to strategically showcase your property. We’ll develop and execute an intelligent, effective paid marketing plan in relevant publications. Eye-catching property signs are produced and placed outside.

Making Connections

05

I will continuously leverage professional contacts and the Compass Network Tool to find ideal buyer brokers. Open houses are hosted for both brokers and clients.

Building a Strategy

06

I’ll conduct an assessment of the market response within the first 30 days of your listing going live. Feedback from agents and buyers is aggregated, and the listing strategy revised if needed.

Communication

07

We will establish the best method and frequency of communicating as the process unfolds. I’ll provide you with regular feedback and will keep you updated with continuous traffic metrics and information from the market.

Negotiations

08

Once we receive an offer, I’ll contact you to review the terms of the offer and analyze the pros and cons. Together we’ll decide how to respond to the buyer in one of several ways: by accepting the offer, rejecting the offer, or making a counter offer.

Escrow

09

Once a contract has been agreed to and signed by all parties, an escrow will be opened and the buyer’s contingency period will begin. Timelines for the completion of buyer and seller responsibilities will be listed in the purchase contract and adhered to in the escrow. I will keep a close eye on the timelines and ensure that you are in compliance with your responsibilities, while also holding the buyer’s side to task to keep the process moving.

Closing

10

I will monitor and coordinate all the details necessary to get you to the finish line. Once the buyer has performed their inspections, removed their contingencies, and the loan (if any) is ready to fund, I’ll arrange the final walk-through. At or near this time the escrow will close, payment will be made, and the keys will be handed over to the buyer.
