Sell Your Home for Top Dollar

In the current Roanoke market, well-priced homes typically sell within 2-4 weeks. The total process from listing to closing usually takes 60-90 days. Factors like price, condition, location, and market conditions can affect this timeline. I provide detailed market analytics to help price your home competitively.

Typical seller costs include real estate commissions (typically 5-6% split between buyer and seller agents), title insurance, transfer taxes, and any negotiated repairs or closing cost credits. In Virginia, sellers also pay prorated property taxes. I provide a detailed net sheet so you know exactly what to expect.

Strategic repairs can significantly impact your sale price and speed. I recommend focusing on high-ROI improvements: fresh paint, updated fixtures, curb appeal, and addressing any obvious maintenance issues. Major renovations rarely pay off dollar-for-dollar. I'll walk through your home and recommend specific improvements.

I perform a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) using recent sales of similar homes in your area, current market conditions, and your home's unique features. Unlike Zillow estimates, my analysis accounts for upgrades, condition, and hyperlocal factors. This data-driven approach helps price your home to sell quickly and for top dollar.

Spring (March-May) typically sees the most buyer activity in Roanoke, but homes sell year-round. Summer is great for families wanting to move before school starts. Even winter sales can be successful with less competition. The best time to sell is when you're ready—I can help you strategize for any season.

No—in fact, it's better if you're not home during showings. Buyers feel more comfortable exploring and envisioning themselves in the space when the owner isn't present. I coordinate all showings and provide feedback after each one so you know exactly what buyers are saying.
