Steps to Selling Your Home 1. M EET A N D ST RAT EGI Z E At the first meeting, we will walk through your home, ask questions and take notes necessary for us to prepare a comparative market analysis (CMA) to determine your home?s value. We will recommend any improvements or staging that we think could help sell your home quicker and for more money based on our expertise. We will discuss your listing timeline, review our ?go to market? timeline and create a tailored plan for your property. 2 . P RI C I N G A N A LYS I S & ST RAT EGY Our team will prepare an in depth comparative market analysis to determine the most probable current market value of your home. We will walk through various pricing scenarios, timelines and goals to make sure our strategy aligns with your needs. We will also prepare and review our listing agreement with you. 3 . L I ST I N G P REP We will provide recommendations to prepare your property for the spotlight. We will schedule professional photography dates and begin putting together our marketing materials to get ready to showcase your home in its best light. 4 . L I ST I N G L A U N C H Depending on our predetermined timeline and strategy, we can feature your property as a ?Gibson Sotheby?s Coming Soon? listing before hitting the market to test pricing strategies and generate interest. Once we are fully ready to launch your listing, we will publish it on MLS. 5 . O FFER REV I EW & A C C EPTA N C E The offer you receive is not just about the dollar signs on the offer price. We will review various contingencies that may have financial impact on your bottom line. If you receive multiple offers, we will create a spreadsheet to compare all offers and talk through any contingencies and dates. We will negotiate any offers on your behalf to make sure you?re not leaving anything on the table. After the offer is accepted you will engage a real estate attorney to help you with the contractual phase. We can provide some trusted references if you do not have one. 6 . H O M E I N S P ECT I O N If the offer you accept has a home inspection contingency we will accompany the buyer, buyer?s agent and home inspector during the home inspection and will work with you to negotiate any repairs they may request as a result of the inspection. The home inspection typically occurs within a week of an offer acceptance.


7. PU RC H A S E & S A L E A GREEM EN T Your attorney will provide a draft purchase and sales agreement contract to the buyer?s attorney. Your attorney will review any changes with you. Once the buyer signs and puts down a deposit (typically 5% of the purchase price, minus the buyer?s initial deposit), you will sign. The purchase & sales agreement typically happens 10?14 days after offer acceptance. 8 . A P P RA I S A L We will meet with an appraiser who is hired on behalf of the buyer?s lender at your property. The appraiser will give an independent estimate of value of the property based on their research and expertise to ensure that the sales price is in line with market value. 9 . FI N A L WA L K -T H RO U GH A final walk-through of the property is performed just prior to closing. The walk-through confirms that no damage has been done to the home since the time of the inspection, that the major systems and appliances are in working order, and any inspection items have been addressed. 10 .

Listing Preparation: Decluttering Any essential items used daily may remain, but anything beyond those items should be stored away. The more you can feasibly store away the better. Packing away any less used items will also help prepare you for your move! The key is less is more. We want to depersonalize your home enough to allow buyers to envision their lives and belongings in the space.

K I T C H EN Clear off and declutter kitchen countertops and open shelving as much as possible. Before photos, showings and open houses, consider storing or packing items such as: -

Toasters

-

Kitchen towels

-

Coffeemakers

-

Oven mitts

-

Knives

-

Dish drying racks

-

Cooking utensils

-

Sponges

D I N I N G RO O M Remove as many items as possible from table tops. Displaying a few items is OK, as long as you thin it out. -

If you have a bar, built-in or china cabinet, cull down any dishware, bottles and/ or knick-knacks.

B AT H RO O M S Clear off/ declutter bathroom countertops and open shelving as much as possible. Before photos, showings and open houses: -

Display matching bath towels. Fold as if they were displayed in a hotel.

-

Display a clean bathroom rug.

-

Remove any toiletries you don?t use on a daily basis.

-

Consider donating any old or unwanted towels to local pet shelters to thin your collection.

B ED RO O M S Clear off/ declutter side tables, tops of dressers and open shelving as much as possible. Before photos, showings and open houses: -

Make your bed.

-

Organize your closet(s) - best if you can thin your wardrobe and shoes down so buyers can see inside more easily. Take out off-season items.

-

(You?ll have to pack anyway so why not start now!), donate unwanted items to charity.


T H RO U GH O U T YO U R H O M E Ensure all hallways are as unobstructed as possible. Consider moving bookshelves, console or other tables that may give an illusion of a space feeling smaller.

L I V I N G RO O M Clear off/ declutter side tables, coffee tables and open shelving as much as possible. Before photos, showings and open houses: -

Organize any books on shelves.

-

Store away any extra games.

-

Remove or thin out collections or knick-knacks.


Listing Preparation: Deep Cleaning A cleaning of any visible surfaces is preferred. We want to provide buyers with a feeling of clean and new beginnings.

K I T C H EN -

Clean inside and fronts of appliances.

-

Clean fronts of kitchen cabinets and drawer or door pulls. If any visible crumbs in drawers or cabinets, wipe clean.

L I V I N G RO O M -

Dust windows and side/ coffee tables, any touchable surfaces.

WA L L S A N D T H RO U GH O U T -

Remove any visible scuff marks - Soft Scrub with Bleach or Mr. Clean Magic Eraser work well for this (used gently, spot tested in an inconspicuous spot). Inspect baseboards and corners where scuffs are often found, especially areas that are touchable or kickable.

-

Dust baseboards.

-

Dust fan blades.

-

Dust light fixtures. If there is visible debris or dust inside of light fixture shades, remove shade and clean inside.

-

Dust and wipe down light switches and door knobs that may have finger smudges or stains on them from use over time.

B ED RO O M S -

Dust windows and side tables, any touchable surfaces.

L A U N D RY A REA S -

Dust tops of washer/ dryer.

-

Wipe down outside of machine.

B AT H RO O M S -

Clean any visible soap scum in showers and tubs.

-

Clean any mold around where shower and tub meet (you may re-caulk if needed).

-

Quick wipe down of sink, counter, fixtures and any spots on mirrors before each buyer facing showing.

O U T D O O RS -

Pick up any loose trash that may blow into your yard.


Listing Preparation: Maintenance We will address any specific maintenance needs with you during walk-through appointments, but in general here are the ?little things? that matter that homeowners can do themselves fairly easily.

I N T ERI O RS -

Ensure all attached light fixtures work, replace bulbs. It?s best to keep the same hue of lighting consistent throughout (bright white, soft white, etc.).

-

Fasten anything that may have become loose over time (drawer pulls, door knobs, handles, electrical outlet covers, light switches, etc.).

-

If applicable, spackle, touch up paint any cracks or visible holes. Keep in mind that sometimes paint touch ups can look worse than before unless an entire wall section is painted, especially with brighter/ darker colors.

-

Re-caulk around shower/ tub area, if needed.

-

Change air filters if you have a central HVAC system.

O U T D O O RS -

If weather permits, little touches like a potted plant at entryways or on decks/ patios brighten up the space and provide a warm welcome to prospective buyers.

-

Have yard and landscaping as neat/ tidy as possible and pick up any loose trash.

Testimonials ?Wendy was incredible to work with. Her ability to listen, really listen, and then apply that knowledge to the sale of our home was very impressive. Not only a pleasure to work with, but also an expert in her field Wendy puts her client (and the privacy of her client) first. We will miss speaking with Wendy on a regular basis. When working with Wendy it is as if you are working with someone you have known for a long time.? ? L A U REN T.

?Wendy helped us through every step of the selling and buying process in a ?no pressure looking out for our best interest? way. Under her guidance and extensive knowledge of the market we priced our house to sell quickly and found the perfect new home for our family within our budget. She made the process painless. Our situation was unique in that my parents were moving in with us from out of state and therefore we needed a house to accommodate a blended family. Wendy worked to find the best solution for our family. We joked that she never slept because our questions -- minor or major -- were answered immediately or she pointed us in the right direction. Wendy is charming, sincere and a smart businesswoman who looked out for our best interest.? ? K A REN H .

?Wendy was extremely helpful in a very challenging market. She was very upfront and didn?t just tell us what we wanted to hear. She had a great understanding of the local market and made sure our buying experience was as painless as possible. She has continued to follow up after the fact and helped introduce us to other people as well as her contacts for work needed to be done to our home. I would definitely use her again.? ? C H RI S K .

?Wendy was wonderful to work with. She was professional, organized, well informed and very friendly. She gave us guidance but also understood the emotional connection involved in selling your home and was very respectful of our wants and needs. The negotiation process is always the most challenging part, and she worked with both us and the seller?s realtor to make it as smooth a process as possible. Anyone would be lucky to work with Wendy and her team!? ? PAT M .

?I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with Wendy. Wendy was amazing to work with. SO knowledgeable. She made an emotional sale process easy, going above and beyond over and over again. I would highly recommend Wendy!!? ? DA RCY L .

Testimonials ?Heather is the gold standard. We had a rough experience trying to sell our house at the end of 2020, and we thought the lack of attention from our agent was typical. Heather showed us that a real estate agent should be an advocate for your family. She was always looking out for our best interests, did her research, and made herself available whenever she could (on top of being an amazing super mom). She is also one of the kindest, warmest souls we?ve ever met. It was our privilege to work with her!? ? J EN N A S .

?I can?t say enough good things about working with Heather Reardon. She made everything easy for us and provided invaluable insights every step of the way! I would 100% recommend working with Heather to all my friends and family looking to buy or sell a house.? ? H AY L EY C.

?Heather was great with helping us purchase a home in Cohasset. She helped us put together an appealing offer. We were uncomfortable with excluding an inspection, even in this hot market, and she came up with a creative (and successful!) solution. We didn?t know much about Cohasset and Heather provided a lot of information about places to visit and getting registered with the town. She also provided us with her contacts for contractors and other services like cleaners. After the closing, Heather stayed in contact and continued to be a resource. She always quickly responds and has lots of knowledge. We will definitely use Heather again in the future and recommend her to everyone.? ? YA S M I N M .

?Heather is the dream of a real estate agent! She walks you through every step of the way, reassures you, is totally honest, and works tirelessly around the clock to make sure everything is going great. She sold our house and helped us buy our new house in our dream location within two days. You won?t find someone else who works harder and makes you feel like you?re their only client! She made the process so easy. We?ve bought before and it was difficult, which made us hesitant to try buying again. Heather changed all of that so I will forever recommend her! She literally changed our quality of life.? ? T H E A M ES FA M I LY

?Once we found our home, Gerri was phenomenal throughout negotiations. The seller had some personal things going on and Gerri was on top of everything, and we never felt like we needed to step in. We knew everything was under control. Even our lawyer and lending agent expressed how great Gerri was to work with. Even after the close, Gerri has consistently checked in with us to see how things were going. All in all, Gerri is amazing. The only downside of buying a house was that we would no longer be working with Gerri.? ? KYLE J.
