Step 1: Establish a Price

When pricing your home it is important to carefully consider top market value. Using my competitive market analysis tool, I will suggest your home’s best listing price. I sell homes HIGHER than the market average because I list homes at the correct price from the start.

Step 7: Closing

Closing is when funds and documents are transferred in order to transfer ownership of the property to the buyer. The escrow officer will look over the contract and find out what payments are owed by who, prepare documents for closing, perform the closing, make sure all payoffs are completed, the buyer’s title is recorded, and that you receive payoffs that are due to you.

Congratulations!
