Overview
of the selling process
Step

address and a brief description of your home. Sharon will
come to your house with information that will assist in
determining the value of your home. Sharon knows the
correct questions to ask to help you clarify your real estate
goals and chart a course to meet them.
Step
Two--Prepare your property
Most of us do not keep our homes in the condition it would need
to be in to sell. How your home looks will have an immense
impact on how quickly it sells and whether or not you get full
market value for it. However, it is virtually impossible
to have a perfect house. Sharon is interacting in the real
estate marketplace every day and she will know your goals.
She will help guide you in deciding how much time/energy/money
to invest in this process.
Step
Three--Begin marketing the property
Sharon views each and every house as a unique product that
demands an individualized marketing plan. Sharon enjoys
selling houses listed with her and has a 92% success rate,
unlike other agents who experience more than 50% expired and
withdrawn listings.

Four--Offer is received
Sharon clearly explains all of the parameters of the offer that
is received.
Step
Five--Negotiate offer
Sharon goes through this process several times each month and is
well educated and experienced. She will guide you through
the negotiation process. Sharon will negotiate terms and
conditions while constantly keeping your best interest in mind.
(
Steps four and five are repeated if necessary.)
Step
Six--Satisfy all contingencies, special stipulations, and terms
of the contract.
This is an involved process with several deadlines that, when
missed, can cause the Seller to lose some rights. Sharon's
experience can guide you through this process all of the way to
closing.
Step
Seven--Closing
In
the state of Georgia "Closing" (where ownership of
property is legally transferred from Seller to Buyer) usually
occurs at an attorney's office. Sharon will assist you in
locating a good attorney, finding the office, and having the
paperwork completed correctly and timely.
On occasion circumstances demand a change from the
ordinary. Once Sharon had to deliver a package to an
out-of-town seller. Sharon is always willing to go the
extra mile to make the process as painless as possible.
