Selling Your Home

You have decided to sell your property. Before anything else, it is a good idea to sit down and clarify your motivations and draw up a basic time frame for the selling process.

Why Sell?

Why do you want to sell your property? Do you intend to simply find a larger (or smaller) property, or are you relocating to another city or state? Is the timing of your move critical – do you want to be settled by the new school year, or are you heading south and want to avoid another frigid winter? Or do you just want to take advantage of a hot real estate market? You might think your reasons for selling are obvious, but it’s important to understand your motivations, as they may directly affect how and when you sell your home. Being clear about your intentions for selling will also make it easier for us as your real estate agent to advise you on the most appropriate strategy to help you meet your financial, lifestyle, and real estate goals.

When Should You Sell?

You should immediately establish your time frame for selling. If you need to sell quickly, we can work with you to help speed up the process. If there is no pressing need to sell immediately, we can work with you to find the most favorable time to sell. Whether timing is critical or not, Vanderhoef Properties will thoroughly review the current market conditions and provide you a complete market analysis and action plan to help you obtain your goals.

What Is the Market Like?

Vanderhoef Properties has been active in the Southeastern Michigan real estate market for years, and our agents have decades of experience. When you work with us, you can be sure that you will have our knowledge and expertise at work for you to help you arrive at the best market price and terms for your home. We will keep you up-to-date on what is happening in the marketplace, not just in terms of how your home is or could do, but also how competing properties are doing in the market. That information will be just what you need to help you decide how best to set your price, and how to respond to offers you receive once you list your home for sale.

How to Optimize Your Finances?

Deciding to sell your property demands a serious consideration of your current financial situation and future possibilities. Vanderhoef Properties can help you understand what the potential proceeds of selling your property will be, so that you can work with your tax and estate planning experts to develop strategies to maximize the benefits you receive once you sell your home. We will help you ensure that you not only take control of the equity in your home, but use it to its fullest potential.
