Seller questions, answered
Know what to expect.
What commission do you charge?
Brokerage compensation is negotiable. Philip will discuss your property, the proposed service package, and compensation before you decide whether to sign a listing agreement.
Is professional photography included?
Photography options and payment arrangements are reviewed before listing. Your agreement will specify whether photography is included or separately charged.
Do I need to stage my home?
Not every property needs full staging. Start with a preparation review; decluttering, minor improvements, or professional staging can be considered based on your goals and budget.
How long will it take to sell?
Timing depends on location, pricing, condition, competition, and buyer demand. Philip can review current market activity, but no sale date or price is guaranteed.
What happens after I request a home-value review?
Philip reviews the information you provide and follows up to discuss your property and goals. A more detailed review may require additional details or a visit. The review is an estimate, not an appraisal, and requesting it does not create a listing agreement.
Can you help with an inherited property or short sale?
Yes. Discuss the real estate steps with Philip and involve your attorney or other advisors as needed. Estate sales involve the authorized representative; short sales depend on lender approval.
