Hello! 'Feeling Stressed because you want to sell your Boston area home? No doubt about it, selling a home is a major financial undertaking. You want a quick sale at the best price.

... but you're unsure how to sell.

Let me help. Selling isn't difficult. It's as easy as 1-2-3.

  1. You need to know what's important to homebuyers
  2. You need to decide whether or not to hire an agent

So what factors are important to homebuyers?

Price, condition, presentation and location

  • Price is the bottom line. Getting it right from the start is important.
  • To fetch the highest price, improve your home's condition. A little clean-up and home improvement goes a long way!
  • The presentation of your home will attract or repel buyers. Attract buyers with staging, great visuals, and strategic marketing. Attract buyers where they search. Online!
  • Location is hugely important to buyers, but your home is where it is. Be sure to perfect the other 3 factors important to buyers if your location is an issue.

So will you need listing agent?

Probably ... With all the raw real estate data online it's tempting to think that you can sell on your own however most sellers decide to hire an agent. Here are a few reasons why:

  • Market Expertise A good agent has local market awareness you can't get elsewhere.

  • Time Chances are you're already busy, do you really have the time and energy to take on another job? A good agent meanwhile lives real estate and is prepared to handle the whole process.
