Selling your home isn’t one-size-fits-all—and your strategy shouldn’t be either. We’ve developed a step-by-step process that keeps things clear, proactive, and stress-free from day one through closing (and beyond).

Here's How It Works.

Step: 1

Initial Appointment

We start by walking the property and listening closely to your goals. Whether you're planning a move or settling an estate, we provide strategic guidance based on what matters most to you. You'll leave with answers, clarity, and a custom game plan—not a generic pitch.

Step: 2

Pre-List Prep

This is where our white-glove service shines. We help you get your home market-ready by bringing in our trusted stager/designer, advising on smart upgrades (only what matters), and coordinating vendors, clean-outs, or even estate sale partners. From decluttering to handyman fixes, we manage the to-do list—and lift the stress.

Step: 3

Strategic Pricing

We don’t rely on algorithms or guesswork. We build your pricing strategy using real-time comps, buyer behavior, and deep market insight. It's designed to position your home competitively, drive demand, and protect your bottom line from day one.

Step: 4

Launch & Marketing

We don’t just throw your home in the MLS and hope for the best. Every listing gets a full launch plan: professional photos, video, compelling copy, and targeted promotion across digital and traditional channels. We run strategic ads, capture leads, and—more importantly—follow up on them. With 25+ years in marketing and sales, we know how to position your home to get noticed—and get results.

Step: 5

Offer & Negotiation

We don’t just wait for offers—we work for them. From managing showings and gathering feedback to following up with buyer agents, we stay engaged and proactive every step of the way. When offers come in, we break down the terms, negotiate with clarity and strategy, and advocate fiercely for your goals. And if feedback reveals an opportunity to pivot, we adjust fast to stay competitive.

Step: 6

Contract to Close + Beyond

From contract to closing day, we manage every detail with precision—inspections, repair negotiations, attorney communication, appraisals, and timelines—so you don’t have to chase updates or second-guess a thing. We proactively advocate for your interests, protect your equity, and ensure the process stays smooth, even when things get complex. We’ll also assist with move-out logistics, utility transfers, and final prep. And after closing? You’ll hear from us. We stay connected with client events, market insights, and trusted referrals for whatever comes next.
