10 Things Every Home Seller Should Know

Selling a home is easy. Stick a sign in the yard and wait for buyers to come along and offer you your list price. It is not that easy. It takes an expert team of professionals with extensive experience to locate qualified buyers and navigate through the process to a successful closing. Conditions are constantly changing with new contract revisions, appraisal rules, buyer qualifications, and underwriting. Let us bring three generations of resources and experience to work for you.

Market Report

Knowledge is power. Knowing the market that you are selling in will give you the competitive advantage. You will be able to price your home accurately and position yourself to be the next home to sell in your area and price range. With this market data and our counsel, your home will be priced to sell not to sit.

Your Home Worth

What is your home worth? We can send you a comprehensive market analysis of your neighborhood so you can see what other homes have sold for in the past three months. Every home is different, even if it has the same basic floor plan. To get the best market valuation of your home, contact us for a confidential consultation.

Maximizing The Value

Closing Costs

What’s my net? Your net will depend upon a number of factors, including what you currently owe on your property. Closing costs will typically include the listing fee, the selling fee, the owner’s title policy (fixed by the State of Texas), attorney fees, recording fees, an escrow fee, homeowner’s association transfer fees and prorated taxes. Taxes are paid at closing for the days a seller owns the property. If there is a loan on the property, these taxes are reimbursed from the seller’s escrow account.

It Takes A Team

It takes a Team. Single real estate practitioners can no longer do it all. To sell homes in today’s market you need strategic expertise not just in real estate brokerage but in internet marketing, videography, professional photography, copywriting, property appraisal, economics and statistics, mortgage and finance, contracts and negotiation, real estate marketing, communication and client care. We have personally selected talented team members in each of these areas and assembled an “All Star” team.
