What matters when you are selling your home
Our sellers describe it in their own reviews better than we can. One called it an aggressive marketing approach that got their home exposure to many buyers. Another had a buyer in five days at over list. Across the team there are 201 published reviews averaging 4.9 stars.
If your home has genuinely been updated, that has to be visible, because buyers walk in assuming an older street means an older kitchen.
Putting a property into the MLS takes about twenty minutes and every licensed agent in this county can do it. If that were the job you would be right to hire whoever charges least.
The mistake to avoid in Apple Hill
The one we see most often here is averaging across homes that genuinely differ in condition, updates and lot.
The job is making sure that in the first seven to ten days your house is live, the people most likely to pay the most for it have seen it, presented properly. After that window a listing stops being new and becomes inventory. Price reductions follow. Buyers start asking what is wrong with it.
