Selling your home is an important decision. As you assess your goals and timing, I'm ready to help.

I'm happy to schedule a no-obligation meeting with you to see your home in person, address questions and concerns, and talk about the home-selling process. When I leave your home, I’ll immediately go to work on your behalf. 

After we meet, I will:

  • Assess current market conditions and compare your home to others that recently sold in your area.

  • Determine the best time for you to sell, ever mindful and respectful to your needs and timeline.

  • Detail my experience and skills and how they will attract more buyers and more money for your home.

  • Educate you about the pre-listing process. This may include home repair and cosmetic upgrades, and always includes staging. I’ll get bids for any necessary work/improvements needed.

  • Discuss with you the return on investment and reasoning for each of my suggestions.

once you hire me, I will:

  • Execute our agreed-upon plan of action. I collaborate with a number of reputable, trusted vendors who are skilled at preparing homes for market quickly and effectively.

  • Project manage all aspects of the work, ensuring our target improvements/changes are delivered on time and on budget. Some vendors have collaborated with me for 20+ years; I’m fortunate to have their loyalty and availability — particularly in this busy, high-demand contractor environment in the Seattle area, where timing is critical.

  • Pay upfront, if needed. I am 100% confident in my abilities to identify needed repairs or improvements that will result in a higher sales price for my sellers. I’m happy to finance the money — if a seller needs this loan upfront — to make necessary improvements or modifications. I am then repaid at escrow out of the seller’s proceeds at closing.

  • Remove stress and hassle. If any of the above items sound daunting, please rest assured that my job as your agent is to project manage and oversee every aspect of your home preparation and sale from start to finish.

my goal as your listing agent:

My #1 goal is to inspire confidence in my sellers and make them more money. As you can see from my Reviews page, I work diligently every day to ensure my clients’ needs are met (and exceeded) and their questions are answered. I am here to champion the best result for your home sale — from the moment you hire me until the escrow check is in your hand. I am available seven days a week.

My job doesn’t stop when your sale closes.

It’s my honor and my pleasure to be your go-to resource anytime you have real estate questions or concerns that need my expertise or network. I’m also happy to serve as a resource for your friends, family members, and colleagues. My profession is my passion and I’m honored to share my expertise with those in my circle.

We can’t speak highly enough of John’s work. The best thing about working with him was that he made everything seem so effortless. I can’t imagine the countless hours he spent behind the scenes — collecting information, doing paperwork, talking to people, etc. on our behalf. He always made us feel like he had all the time in the world for us.
