Pricing Your Home

The greatest mistake sellers can make is not pricing their home properly. To accurately price your home, Beverly researches comparable homes in your neighborhood and will put together a comparative market analysis (CMA) report.  This report will include information about properties that are similar to yours in the neighborhood. The data will come from recently sold properties, active properties, and expired listings. By comparing your home’s features to those in the neighborhood, Beverly will accurately price your Keller home to be sold for the best price in a timely manner.

Marketing Your Home

There’s more to marketing your Keller, Texas, home than just putting a sign in the yard. Your listing will receive internet exposure on more than 400 websites, social media postings, just listed postcards, and more. Beverly understands that no two properties are the same, so each client that she works with receives a custom marketing plan fit for the needs of their property.

Showing Your Home

Once Beverly starts to receive phone calls for potential buyers to tour your home, it’s important you’re not at home while the tours are taking place. Your pets also need to be securely in their kennels or away from the house, as well. Potential buyers need to feel comfortable walking the home with their agent to discuss their thoughts on the house.

Offers and Closing on Your Home

When Beverly receives offers on your Keller home, she will discuss each one with you and allow you to select the offer that best fits the needs of you and your family. After you have selected an offer and the contract has been signed, the buyer’s option period will begin. During this time, the buyer will likely have a home inspection completed on the home and will negotiate repairs. Beverly will work hard negotiating on your behalf to get you the best possible outcome.

After negotiations are complete, any repair contingencies have been satisfied, and the buyer’s financing has been secured, the mortgage company will give the all-clear to close on the house. After documents by both parties have been signed and the buyer’s check has cleared, the keys will be turned over to the new owners.
