So, what are the most important steps to sell your home in today’s market?

Hi, it’s Dave Hooke from the Dave Hooke Real Estate Team at Keller Williams of Central PA. I want to answer this question because I recently heard a story about someone approaching this process backward—and I’m convinced it cost them tens of thousands of dollars. I don’t want that to happen to you.

Here’s the proper process and the steps you should take to ensure you sell your home for the most money in the least amount of time:

Step 1: Don’t automatically hire the first agent you interview. Instead, schedule consultations with a few different agents. A good agent will offer a free listing consultation, discuss your goals, address your concerns, and present a detailed marketing plan. They’ll also provide a free home value estimate, showing you what you could walk away with after the sale.

Step 2: Once you’ve chosen the right agent, they’ll help you finalize pricing.

Step 3: Your agent will implement strategic marketing plans and get your home listed online.

Step 4: Expect regular updates—weekly or bi-weekly—on your home’s progress and feedback from showings.

Step 5: When offers come in, your agent will negotiate on your behalf to ensure the best possible terms.

Step 6: Finally, your agent will guide you seamlessly through the settlement process so you can move on to the next chapter of your life.

Our team conducts 4-5 free listing consultations every week, and we’d love to schedule one for you. Call us at 717-216-0860 or email us at support@davehooketeam.com to get started!
