If you’re thinking about your next move, there’s a If you’re thinking about your next move, there’s a long list of tactical things to do to get your home ready for market…BUT before we start there’s something I’m going to ask you.

I need you to tell me everything you’ve loved about your home.

Trust me, there’s a strategic reason for this request!

Knowing all the little ways you loved this home will help me tell its story and foster an emotional connection with potential buyers🏡💕

Plus it makes it feel like a welcoming and comfortable place to continue their own story 🥰

If selling is on your 2026 to do list, I’d love to walk you through the rest of my strategy. You can always reach out if you have any questions. 

Happy Friday!! 🌷

The first thing buyers ask me at an open house...🏡 The first thing buyers ask me at an open house...🏡 

✔️(Save this post if you’re listing your home in the next 3-6 months)

❓How old is the roof, the HVAC and other major systems?

Having the answer to this \*and\* the dates of any other repairs, upgrades or replacements is \*invaluable\* to a buyer. Ask for my home maintenance tracker!

❓What are the fees and HOA restrictions? 

❓How far am I to amenities and schools?

❓What are the annual property taxes and are there any tax abatements or exemptions?

❓What are the average monthly costs for utilities?

❓Were there any recent renovations or upgrades (e.g., kitchen, bathroom, flooring)

❓Why is the homeowner looking to sell? (e.g., relocation, downsizing, upgrading)

❓What are the planned developments in the area?

Having detailed information about these specifics builds trust between the buyer, seller, and agent, making for a more seamless sale! 

What’s your top questions when touring a home?

It might take a few extra minutes, but being thorough protects my clients in the long run.

Some things are easy to spot while others take a trained eye and experience.

My clients know that when we’re in house hunting mode, I’m weighing the details, comparing options and understanding what we can leverage.

If you like to tour some homes and want a second set of eyes, I’d love to connect!
