My Objectives Listen carefully so I understand your objectives. Explain the Home Selling and Marketing Process -

my responsibility, your responsibility. Thoroughly review your home. Help you price your home. Advise you how to prepare your home for showing. Review what happens from time of contract through close of

escrow/closing. Ask for your commitment to begin marketing your home.

Frequently, a real estate agent will tell a seller what they want to hear just to get the listing. I would like to speak with you very candidly and tell you the truth about what is needed to get your home sold.

Home Warranty Plan

Homes sell 50% faster and for a higher price than homes without a home warranty...according to a study by the National Home Warranty Association. In addition, a home warranty plan “reduces your liability after the sale.”

You can provide the buyer up to one year of coverage on selected items...
