Prepping to list and sell a property always comes with a big list of questions—how to prepare, whether or not to stage the home, how to price it (and negotiate on it)—and a long list of to-dos.
We put our vast experience to work to answer the questions, bring in the right help, advise on what’s worth worrying about, and garner the best selling price possible. We’ve sold everything from high-end designer homes to borderline-shacks, and at this point, there’s very little we haven’t seen. We revel in the twists and turns of problem-solving … all while making the journey a smooth one for you.
We’ve seen it all. And we’ve sold it, too.
The most important part of real estate marketing usually happens before the house ever appears on Zillow or the MLS. The vast majority require a little prep work before they hit the market.

Deep cleaning (inside cabinets, baseboards, windows, walls, the works)

ALL THE MARKETING YOU NEED:
We don’t lean on common real estate marketing tactics that give exposure to the agent but do little for the sale of your home. We skip the flashy, ineffective stuff and set the gold standard for marketing.

PROFESSIONAL STAGING (IT WORKS):
Staging is actually a super effective way to warm up empty spaces, make flaws less noticeable, and enable buyers see themselves living happily and beautifully in a property. Even fully furnished houses can benefit from some subtle staging, such as rearranging furniture layouts, strategically replacing certain furniture pieces, or adding art to fill in empty walls. With a typical commission structure, we generally share in the cost of staging or pay it in full.
