Selling your home

The 4 p’s

The right home preparation, debut pricing, positioning and promotion all substantially influence your end home sale result.

When selling your home, selecting the right real estate agent is one of the most important decisions you can make in order to obtain the best results for you. Your agent’s negotiating skills are the key to closing a clean sale, at the highest/best price.

Consider this, your biggest expense in selling your home may be the money you DON’T make.

Buying your home

 

Marin

Is more than just a county.

Marin lies on the north side of the Golden Gate Bridge, 20 minutes from downtown San Francisco. Marin is our home.

The entire county is a wonder of nature, with protected open space consisting of rolling hills, the never-ending trails of Mount Tamalpais, striking beaches and peaceful coastal redwood forests. Charming winding roads lead to intimate towns with luxury waterfront homes and hillside estates.

Making small spaces shine on a limited budget

When we were hired to sell this his sweet home, it had been a rental for a while, and had not had a facelift for many years. The good news was that the basic maintenance and upkeep had been performed consistently. Even better news was that, thanks to the solid 1920’s structure and original choice of materials, the age of the house became a plus in charm and style…
