## Step by Step

3. **Launch.** Photos, video and the listing go live.
4. **Offers.** We present every offer and help you compare terms, not just price.
5. **Closing.** We keep the contract on schedule until settlement.

We don't provide legal or tax advice; please consult an attorney or tax professional about your situation.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do you decide on a list price?**  
We use recent comparable sales, current competition and the home's condition, and we review the numbers with you.

**Do I have to make repairs before listing?**  
No. We recommend what's likely to matter to buyers, and you decide. As-is sales are an option too.

**Can I sell if I've already moved away?**  
Yes. We handle preparation and showings locally and coordinate a remote closing.

**How do you market my home?**  
Professional photos, video, MLS exposure, agent outreach and online marketing, tailored to the property.

**Can I get references?**  
Yes. We provide a list of client and professional references on request.
