Dear Homeowner,
It might seem strange that I, a real estate agent, want to help you sell your home on your own. You’re probably thinking, “What’s the catch?” Truth is, I get it. I understand wanting to save money and take things into your own hands. I do it, too—whether it’s tackling home projects or figuring things out myself. Sometimes it works out great, sometimes it’s just okay, and other times I end up calling a professional anyway.
Let’s say I decided to paint my house. If a pro painter walked by and kept bugging me, saying, “You can’t do this as well as I can,” or “You’re going to mess it up”, I’d be thinking, Get out of my way—I’ve got this. But if another professional painter said, “Hey, here are a few tips that might help,” I’d appreciate it. And if I did run into trouble or got tired of the project, that’s the painter I’d call.
That’s my approach here. You’ll likely hear from agents telling you that selling on your own is a mistake or trying to scare you into hiring them. I’m not doing that. I want to help you succeed in selling your home on your own. If you give it your best shot and decide you’d like some help down the road, great—I’d love to be your go-to. But I want to earn that opportunity, not pressure you into it.
For now, I hope this guide gives you practical, insider tips you won’t find elsewhere. It’s not just fluff—it’s meant to give you an edge. And if you have questions while you’re navigating this process or about anything in the guide, don’t hesitate to reach out.
Best of luck with your sale!
