Selling Your Home

For most families, their home is their largest financial asset, and deciding to sell it is a big decision that involves a lot of preparation and work. When you're ready to sell it's important to have an experienced real estate professional handle the details involved in the successful sale of a home for top dollar.

As an experienced professional who has helped many Greater Kansas City residents sell their homes, I know how to handle every aspect of the sales process - from strategically marketing and showcasing your home to making sure everything's signed, sealed and delivered by the closing date.

That is why you should use Dean The Realtor when selling your home. I can help you understand everything you need to know about the home selling process.

As a REALTORŪ I am committed to treating all parties to a transaction honestly. I subscribe to a strict Code of Ethics and I am expected to maintain a higher level of knowledge of the process of buying and selling real estate.

Real estate transactions are one of the biggest financial dealings of most people's lifetime. Transactions today usually exceed $250,000. If you had a $250,000 income tax problem, would you attempt to deal with it without the help of a certified professional accountant? If you had a $250,000 legal question, would you deal with it without the help of an attorney? Considering the small upside cost and the large downside risk, it would be wise to work with Dean The Realtor when you are selling a home.

If you're still not convinced of the value of I offer, here are more reasons to use me:

  1. When selling your home, I can give you up-to-date information on what is happening in the marketplace as well as the price, financing, terms and condition of competing home. These are key factors in getting your home sold at the best price, quickly and with minimum hassle.
  2. Often, I can recommend repairs or cosmetic work that will significantly enhance the salability of your home.
  3. I market your home to other real estate agents and the public. In our market, most real estate deals are cooperative sales; that is, a real estate agent other than myself brings in the buyer. I act as the marketing coordinator,distributing information about your home to other real estate agents through the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), email, open houses for agents, etc. The REALTORŪ Code of Ethics requires me to utilize these cooperative relationships when they benefit their clients.
  4. I will know when, where and how to advertise your property. My comprehensive marketing has the potential to reach thousands of people a day.
  5. I can help you objectively evaluate every buyer's proposal without compromising your marketing position. This initial agreement is only the beginning of a process of appraisals, inspections and financing - and a lot of possible pitfalls. I can help you write a legally binding, win-win agreement that will be more likely to make it through the process.
  6. I can help close the sale of your home. Issues may arise between the initial sales agreement and closing (also called settlement or escrow), for example, unexpected repairs might be required to obtain financing or a title problem is discovered. The required paperwork alone is overwhelming for most sellers. I am the best person to objectively help you resolve these issues and move the transaction to closing.

Providing you with comprehensive, high-quality listing service is my top priority. So when you decide to sell your home, please contact me and let's get started!
