LOS ANGELES – A place of culture, entertainment, luxury and diversity – and such a vibrant and elegant community also means a dynamic real estate market. Selling your home in L.A. can be an exciting journey, but with every journey comes its own challenges and worries; and so you’d need a team behind you to guide you through one of the most important transactions in your lifetime.
I have prepared this guide to give you an overview of the Real Estate selling process and how we help our clients go through the whole transaction as smoothly and as hassle-free as possible.
GETTING STARTED
Consultation
Good preparation is always essential for a smooth transaction – we do this by setting up a listing appointment with you to understand your goals for selling their home. Whether you’re looking for a quick sale, aiming for the highest possible price, or seeking a seamless transition to your next property, your objectives will shape our entire selling strategy.
During the consultation we’ll also discuss setting the right price for your home through a thorough comparative market analysis. This is to make sure we set an optimal listing price that attracts potential buyers while maximizing your return.
Once we have agreed upon a listing price and marketing strategy and once we have signed our listing agreement, it’s time to prepare your home for sale.
SETTING THE STAGE
Preparation
From applying a fresh coat of paint, decluttering, to rearranging furniture, setting up repairs or calling in additional resources to make your house shine, we will work with you to ensure the property is ready to make the right first impression with buyers.
We have an arsenal of top contractors like stagers and photographers to ensure your home would look at its best prior to putting it on the market.
ALL EYES ON YOUR HOME
Marketing
We have an expert in-house marketing team who will prepare and produce impactful print and digital marketing assets to attract a wide range of buyers once we list it on the Market.
You can also have the option to sell your property off-Market temporarily or exclusively using our network of the most productive agents in Los Angeles and a massive pool of buyers who only have eyes on the most exclusive of deals.
We can also schedule events such as Broker’s Opens, private showings and Open Houses so that buyers can see the property and picture their future home in person.
We’d regularly update you as well on the market’s response while the listing is live. We’ll go through agents and buyers feedback, and adjust the listing strategy as needed.
LET’S STRATEGIZE
Reviewing and Negotiating Offers
We will collect all the offers made on your home and help you pick out the offer most suitable for your goals and needs, considering not only the price but also contingencies, financing terms, and closing timelines. Together, we will weigh the pros and cons of each offer to make an informed decision. If needed, I will also help you formulate and respond with counter-offers.
FROM ESCROW TO CLOSE
nce we get the best offer for your home and purchase agreements are signed, the deal will now undergo escrow. We will observe and record all contingency periods throughout this stage.
We will work closely with the escrow officer to ensure all legal and financial requirements are met, and the necessary documents are prepared and signed promptly.
Throughout the escrow period, We’ll also keep you looped in about each milestone, providing regular updates and answering any questions you may have.
Once the buyer has performed inspections, removed their contingencies, and the loan (if any) is ready to fund, we’ll arrange the final walk-through. Finally, at closing you will hand over keys to the buyer and you will get proceeds from the sale.
Selling your Los Angeles home can be a rewarding experience with the right guidance and expertise. I hope this overview helped you be prepared to navigate the intricacies of the local real estate market and achieve your selling goals.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or if you wish to have us as your trusted team to help you with selling your home. Looking forward to hearing from you!
