Working With Sellers
LIFE HAPPENS
Major life change such as marriage, divorce, retirement, or the birth of a child can prompt homeowners to sell their current property to accommodate their changing needs. With the need to adapt, selling your current home prior to purchasing your dream home can add pressure to your timeline. This is where I come in with tough negotiating skills and creative solutions. I also help identify your new property to make this transitional period as easy as possible for you.
RELOCATION
Homeowners may decide to relocate their home to move into a better neighborhood or to accept a new job offer located in a different city. With a network of over 20,000 agents nationwide, Compass offers a wide network of qualified agents to assist you with finding your perfect home. As we prepare for your property to be sold, allow me to connect you with an agent that’s located in your new destination.
DOWNSIZE
Conversely, some homeowners may downsize due to empty nesting, financial reasons, or to simplify their lifestyle. Switching to a condo or even testing out the rental market prior to committing to a neighborhood has proven to be an effective strategy for some Sellers. I negotiate contingencies such as Post Closing Occupancy, which helps by allowing the Seller to live in the property after the closing date. This allows additional time to move to the new property which alleviates the pressure of closing on the new property.
1031-EXCHANGE
With a short window of time to replace your Relinquished Property, identifying your potential Replacement Property within 45 days can be a seamless process. Often times, investors begin to search their replacement property prior to selling. By identifying the criteria that you need, I’ll set up a customized search for you by creating a Collection in our Compass portal to sort through the various properties. As your agent, I want to help achieve your investment goals.
