Selling
Selling a Home in Denver, Done With a Plan
Selling starts with understanding the property, the market around it, and what needs to happen before it goes live. I will help you work through those decisions and build the plan from there.
Where We Start
What Happens First
Before deciding on a list price or launch date, I want to understand the home and what you are trying to accomplish with the sale. From there, we can determine what is worth addressing before listing, how the property compares with the market, and how the timing fits with your next move.
Step 01
Pricing
Online estimates can be a useful reference, but they do not account for everything buyers will compare when your home reaches the market. I look at recent sales, current competition, condition, location, and the details of the property before recommending a pricing range. From there, we can decide how to position the home based on the market and your priorities.

Preparing the Home
Not every home needs a long list of projects before it goes on the market. I will walk through the property with you and identify what is worth addressing, what may help with presentation, and what can be left alone. The preparation plan should make sense for the home, the market, and the amount of time you have before listing.

Positioning
Homes compete differently depending on location, property type, condition, and price point. A Cherry Creek condo, a Park Hill bungalow, and a Lakewood single-family home should not be positioned the same way.
Step 04
Marketing
Once the home is ready, the marketing should make it easy for buyers to understand the property before they walk through the door. Photography, listing copy, property details, MLS presentation, and targeted online exposure should show the home clearly and put the most relevant features in context.
Step 05
Showings & Market Feedback
Once the home is on the market, we will watch how buyers respond. Showing activity, feedback, competing listings, and new sales can give us additional information about how the property is positioned. If the market gives us a reason to adjust, we will discuss it rather than making changes based on a fixed schedule.
Step 06
Offers
When an offer comes in, I will walk you through the terms and how they affect the sale. The highest price is not always the strongest offer once financing, contingencies, deadlines, concessions, and the likelihood of closing are considered. We will compare the options and decide how you want to respond.
Step 07
Under Contract
Accepting an offer is not the end of the transaction. Inspection, appraisal, title work, financing, and contract deadlines still need to be managed before closing. I will keep track of the deadlines, explain what requires your attention, and work through issues with you as they come up.
Step 08
Selling and Buying at the Same Time
If you are also buying a home, we should talk about that before your current home goes on the market. The order of the two transactions affects financing, timing, possession, and how much flexibility you have when making an offer. There are several ways to structure the sequence. The right one depends on your finances, the market, and how much overlap or uncertainty you are comfortable with.
