Repairs & Maintenance

Handle the things buyers notice first — and the paperwork that reassures them once they're inside.

Address safety & structural issuesRoof leaks, plumbing problems, and faulty electrical switches top the list. Selling as-is is a legitimate option many sellers choose instead.
Handle the small stuffPatch drywall cracks, fix sticking doors, and replace broken window panes or torn screens. DIY where you can — it adds up.
Gather your paperworkReceipts and warranties for major updates like a new roof or HVAC system, plus appliance manuals and recent utility bills.

Cleaning & Staging

This is where homes get shown-ready — and where the biggest return on effort lives.

Declutter every roomPack away personal photos, extra knick-knacks, and half your closet contents. Buyers read packed boxes as a sign the sellers are serious about moving.
Deep clean top to bottomCarpets, windows inside and out, kitchen and bathroom surfaces. Squeaky-clean homes sell faster, and for more.
Boost curb appealMow, mulch, and pressure-wash walkways. Open blinds and curtains to show off natural light, and pare down furniture to reveal a room's true size.
Don't skip the garage & basementClean, declutter, and organize these too — buyers look everywhere.

Listing & Showings

The paperwork, pricing, and day-to-day habits that keep your home ready for a buyer at any moment.

Talk timeline & expectationsWalk through your calendar and showing preferences with Andrea.
Review pricing & commissionA current comparative market analysis sets the right list price. Andrea will also walk through commission — her fee, what to expect for a buyer's agent, and the option of a reduced rate under dual agency.
Set your price & sign the listing agreementTypically a six-month term, adjustable to fit your needs, with commission spelled out.
Schedule professional photographyBooked just a few days before going live, so the home is camera-ready for the listing and any early showings.
Order the yard sign & lockboxBoth go up before the listing goes live.
Keep it showing-readyClear counters, made beds, pets out if possible. Buyers are always accompanied by a licensed agent and will open closets and cabinets, so keep those organized too.

Offers & Closing

The home stretch — from the first offer on the table to the day you hand over the keys.

Reassess pricing if neededConsider a reduction after 14 days with no showings, or six weeks with no offer.
Review every offer with AndreaContingencies, financing, terms, and price — then decide together whether to counter.
Prepare for inspection & appraisalNegotiate repairs or a small price reduction if needed. If the home is listed as-is, requests for repairs can be declined outright.
Sign the Purchase & Sale agreementThis sets your closing date. Closing can be extended if needed, though usually only by a few days.
