Seller Tips


10 Things You Should NOT Have on Your Property When Selling Your Home
When your home goes on the market, it’s not just being shown to “nice buyers.” It’s being published publicly, sometimes globally, and that means you need to think about privacy, safety, and liability—not just aesthetics. Here are the top things I recommend removing or avoiding before showings, open houses, and photos. 1. Personal Photos and Kids’ Names I don’t recommend leaving personal photos up, and I definitely don’t recommend leaving kids’ names displayed (like letters ov


Flooring Choices That Help You Sell
Flooring is one of the most expensive upgrades you can make, so the goal is to choose something buyers will actually want. If you pick the wrong material, you can spend a lot of money and still lose value because the next buyer plans to rip it out. In this guide, I’m breaking down the flooring options I see most often, what buyers tend to prefer, what I recommend for different price points, and what I would avoid if you’re selling. Start With Your Price Point Before you choos


Updated Home Inspection Checklist
Home inspections can make or break a deal. Even when a buyer loves the home, a long report full of “deferred maintenance” can trigger fear, big repair requests, or a price reduction. The goal is not perfection. The goal is a clean, confidence-building inspection where the big systems are working, the safety items are compliant, and the obvious issues have already been handled. Why this checklist matters When a home inspection is messy, buyers often assume there are hidden pro

Beware These Real Estate Tactics I Saw This Year
Beware. I am putting you on notice, because these tactics are real, they are happening right now, and you need to know about them before you are in the middle of a transaction. I am sharing these because I have seen them play out in real deals this year. The market has gotten slicker and more competitive, and buyers and sellers need to stay alert. The cash offer switch One of the most common tactics I saw was the so called all cash offer that came in expecting a discount beca


15 Homes I Would Never Buy
I love touring model homes. They are beautiful, staged perfectly, and always inspiring. But after selling several former model homes for my clients, I can confidently say I would never buy one myself. This article walks you through the types of homes I personally avoid, and why. 1 Model homes from builders I would never buy a model home. In my experience, builders want those models finished fast so they can start selling phases, and quality control can get overlooked. Model h


August 2024 Reality Check
Why selling a home felt harder and what changed fast August 2024 was one of the most difficult months I had experienced in the previous five years. In my area, August was already known as a tough month for real estate, but that year difficult felt like an understatement. The market had clearly shifted. Buyer demand was different. The way Realtors conducted business had changed quickly. There was a lot of fear, uncertainty, and doubt, and the market had responded with a notice

Top 25 Things to Get Rid Before You Sell Your Home
If you are planning to sell your home in 2025, this list will save you a lot of headaches. Buyers are more selective right now, and the more neutral and “move in ready” your home feels, the better your showing experience (and your offers) tend to be.

Winter Was Coming for the Housing Market
Folks, were you feeling it? Because I was feeling it. It felt like winter was coming for the housing market, and I wanted you to adapt your selling approach before it cost you thousands of dollars. At the time, we were seeing higher inventory nationwide, lower buyer demand, softer consumer confidence, and stubborn mortgage rates. Homes were taking longer to sell, competition was rising, and the strategy that worked three years earlier was not working the same way anymore. The

Downsizing Your Home: The Real Pros, Cons, and Mistakes to Avoid
My garage door spring snapped today, and I was literally trapped in my garage. Three men had to lift up this heavy door so I could back my car out… and now I can’t even get back into the garage. Not the end of the world—we’ll fix it—but it’s moments like this that make me think: “I want a simpler life.” Because it’s not just the garage. Right now, I’ve got termites (and yes, it feels like they’re raining down), my house needs to be repiped, my kitchen appliances are aging, t


Are Rising Property Taxes and Insurance Quietly Killing Your Home Plans?
Buying or selling right now means running the numbers beyond principal and interest. The two wild cards changing monthly payments and deal math are property taxes and homeowners insurance. Here is what to understand and how to protect yourself. Why your “fixed” payment is not really fixed Many mortgages include an impound (escrow) account. You pay one amount monthly and the lender pays your property taxes and insurance when due. Principal and interest can be fixed, but taxes
