Selling Polk County Homes
When you go to sell your home, whether an entry level home or a luxury lakeside home, you want to work with someone who understands it's value and can compete in the current market. You want to work with an agent that has experience in marketing, sales, and negotiating. When you work with me, you get that experience and I take seriously the responsibilty of getting your home sold.
You may feel you're not ready to sell yet. That's normal. Even if you arent' ready to move or know where you're going to move to, call me. I've negotiated sales and a rent back period so that the seller stays in the home until their new situation is ready.
Every situation is different. Whether your situation is a standard home sale or a distressed situation, call me so we can discuss it . I'll explain the process and review your home and situation and help you think throught it all. If you decide to move forward and sell, I'll guide you to get your home sold quicky for top dollar.
Below are some situations I can help you with.
Wherever you are in the process - thinking about it, or MUST SELL — I can help you.
For Sale By Owner
The main reason people sell by owner is that they hope to keep from paying a commission. The statistics show that most FSBO will actually net significantly less. Imagine selling for $20,000 less than market price just to save $10,000 in commission. And that's because most buyers willing to work with a FSBO are looking for a deal or for you to be the bank and carry a loan. Let's get your house sold for the right price and you'll net more. Multiple times we've helped sellers get at least $30,000 more than their original listing price.
Divorce
Divorce can be extremely difficult. Sadly, it often calls for selling the family home. While sometimes one party can retain the home, it's not always the case. For one party to retain often means refinancing. And due to the situation, neither party may be able afford the home alone. Selling the home then requires cooperation in an already contentious time. If you find yourself here, call me. I can help you get the most money while making it less stressful on both parties.
Probate / Inheritance
Inheriting a home, via probate or otherwise, can be stressful. Whether you decide to keep the home or sell it, it's important to maintain the home, and keep up with any utility, mortgage and tax payments. If you do decide to sell it, it wil be necessary to gather all the paperwork - including death certificates, wills, or court documents. You may be swampd by investors calling to take the home off your hands for a steep discount. While it may feel like a quick cashout, it's a huge loss. I can get you full market price just as quickly, no matter the condition of the home.
Foreclosure / Liens
The economy is often shifting. If you find yourself in a bad situation, please consider your options. If you have equity in your house, it's often best to sell and get that cash and move on. While we all hope for the best, waiting too long can result in a lossing that equity and ruining your credit. And it's possible investors are calling to buy your home at a steep discount too. Feel free to call me and discuss. Don't be embarrassed. More people have been there than you know. It's important to know your options sooner so you can make wise decisions.
