SELLING YOUR HOME

Get the most out of your home sale in the Des Moines area.

Selling is one of the biggest financial decisions you'll make. I'll help you price it right, market it well, and get to the closing table without the stress.

WHY HIRE ME TO LIST YOUR HOME

Local knowledge that drives better results

I specialize in combining an old-school work ethic with modern marketing. I know exactly how to position your home in this market to reach the highest number of potential buyers who are willing to pay your price or more.

Accurate Pricing

Overpricing kills momentum. I'll show you where to list based on real market data.

Full Marketing

MLS, professional photos, social media, and targeted buyer outreach - all included.

Negotiation Focus

I work to get you the best net outcome that fits YOUR needs - not just the fastest close.

Here's what you can expect when we work together - from day one through closing.

Free home valuation & consultation

We start with a no-pressure walkthrough of your home and a detailed CMA. I'll give you an honest range - not an inflated number to win your listing.

Pre-listing prep

I'll walk through what's worth fixing, what to declutter, and how to stage key rooms. Small investments here can meaningfully impact your final sale price.

Professional photography & listing launch

We schedule your photo shoot, finalize your listing details, and go live on the MLS. I'll coordinate everything so your home hits the market looking its best.

Showings & open houses

I'll manage all showing requests, collect feedback from buyers' agents, and keep you updated throughout. You'll never be left wondering what's happening.

Reviewing offers & negotiating

When offers come in, I'll walk you through every term — price, contingencies, closing timeline — so you can make a fully informed decision. Price isn't the only thing that matters.

Under contract through closing

Once you accept an offer, I'll guide you through inspections, appraisals, and any final negotiations. My job isn't done until you have your check in hand.

GOOD TO KNOW

What sellers often ask me

A few things worth understanding before you list.

How is my home value determined? 

We will look at recent comparable sales in your specific neighborhood, current active competition, condition factors, and what else is going on in the market - not just Zillow's estimate, which is often off.

How fast are homes selling?

We will discuss how quickly homes like yours are selling in your area. We will also chat through how proper pricing and presentation can help you hit your desired timeline.

Should I make repairs before listing?

It depends. Some updates have strong ROI, others don't. I'll give you an honest breakdown so you don't over-invest before selling. I almost always recommend doing the little things.
