3. Set the price right
Request a neighborhood sold report from Godwin Realty Group, and use it to determine a competitive price that maximizes your return and minimizes time on the market. We will work together to consider the price of recently sold homes in Osceola County Real Estate, homes currently on the market in your neighborhood, and the specifics of your home to set the right listing price.
4. Prepare your home
Start by cleaning up clutter, working from your attic down to your closets. Remove extra furniture or personal belongings, such a family photos, so that buyers can picture their lives in your home. Next, you’ll work with us to stage your home and get it ready for a professional photographer to take listing photos that highlight your home’s best features.
5. Market your home
With our knowledgable team at your side, this challenging and crucial step gets so much easier. We will use our expert marketing skills and ample resources to showcase your home to the appropriate buyers and markets in Osceola County Real Estate. Godwin Realty Group uses a number of expert tactics to attract serious buyers.
6. Open your home to buyers
When your home is on the market, you want to allow buyers to see it in person. This gives them the chance to make a personal connection, which is why it’s important to depersonalize it as much as possible. Keep it clean and organized between showings to ensure you're ready to show on short notice.
7. Negotiate and accept an offer
Interested buyers will submit a written offer to include the price they’ll pay, closing dates, and other contingencies. It’s up to you to accept or reject that offer. If you reject it, we'll negotiate different terms, either adding your own contingencies or countering with a higher price.
8. Sign a purchase and sale agreement
When you’ve both agreed on an offer, you’ll enter into a legal contract using a Purchase and Sale Agreement. This will contain the specifics of the offer, including the terms, conditions, and contingencies of the sale.
9. Cooperate with due diligence
Next, you'll give the buyer the opportunity to hire an inspector and do their due diligence, which might include an appraisal, title checks, surveys, and more. Should any issues arise during this process, the buyer may want to renegotiate the terms of the sale. We’re here to help during this part of the process, too.
10. Sign, pay, and close!
You’ve made it to the end. On the agreed-upon closing date, you, the buyer, and both agents will finish signing all paperwork. You’ll also pay any necessary fees and turn over the keys and property title. In exchange, you receive a check for the sale price, minus what may be owed on an existing mortgage. Congratulations—you just sold your home!
