Selling a home begins with thoughtful preparation. Areas to address when considering selling are decluttering, staging, and tackling small repairs to make your property more appealing to buyers. For traditional sellers, one of the biggest hurdles is coordinating the sale with the purchase of a new home while also managing the uncertainties of shifting market conditions. Beyond the logistics, the experience often marks a pivotal moment in a person’s life, demanding both strategic planning and emotional readiness. 

As a seller, you may feel anxious, unsure, or even overwhelmed. As your trusted advisor, my job is to help you navigate this moment with clarity and confidence. 

Seller Myths

#1. "I can sell my home on my own and save money."

While many homeowners do choose to sell their homes privately and have success in doing so,  working with a qualified real estate agent who understands local market trends and negotiates effectively can often net you more, even after commission. If you sell on your own, you have to do all the hustle—and there's a lot of hustle to marketing a home. Also, sales by owners tend to be overpriced because of the emotional factor. 

#2. “Overpricing gives me room to negotiate.”

Buyers are savvy, and an overpriced home may scare them off or sit unsold. I use comparative market analysis (CMA) to guide you in setting a competitive price. Homes priced correctly from the start typically sell faster and closer to asking.

“I should wait for the perfect season to sell.”

While spring is a popular time of year to list, homes sell year-round. Market conditions, interest rates, and local demand matter more than the calendar. I have my clients focus on market readiness. Prepare your home and list when you’re financially and emotionally ready.
