Let's get to know each other and take a look at the home you'll be selling. I'll come to you so I can tour your house and give you my thoughts.
step 1
Consultation
To-Do List
step 2
To ensure we're listing the best quality home, I'll support you with a "to-do" list so you can begin to prep your home for listing.
Once your home is cleaned and/or staged, we'll get listing photos taken, I'll conduct pre-MLS marketing to start the buzz, your house will go live on MLS and I'll host Open Houses to get as much traffic through as we can!
step 3
MLS Listing
Offer Accepted
step 4
Once we get an offer, I'll explain all of the details so you feel confident in accepting what's best for you. I'll go through all of the fine print around earnest money, the due diligence period and any contingencies.
You've accepted an offer so now it's time to move! You'll sign the closing documents at a time that's convenient for you, then we'll hand over the keys to the new home owners.

I'm ready - let's chat!
The cost of title transfer and title insurance, Lender Fees and appraisal (if financing), Insurance and Taxes, discount points (optional).
What do closing costs cover?
This depends on the current market. In a sellers market, buyers can expect to pay most of not all of their closing costs. In a buyers market, the seller may cover these for you.
Who pays the closing costs?
Typically 2-3% of the purchase price of the home, but this number can vary from transaction to transaction.
How much are closing costs?
Frequently Asked Questions
I have GREAT resources/partnerships with all of these and will connect you with the best in the industry!
How do I find a lender/inspector/stager/title company?
Timing the market is nearly impossible. The best time to buy is when you can comfortably afford the home that you want/need. Typically in MN, the spring/summer is the "hottest" seasons where there is more inventory and prices are typically strongest. Winter is lower inventory/options but often time better opportunities for buyers to negotiate.
When is the best time to buy/sell?
It's most commonly the SELLER pays all the commissions for both sides of the transaction, although it is not set in stone and this can sometimes be negotiated. One should not go into this expecting anything other than this standard though.
Who pays commissions?
I have been licensed since May of 2016. Most of my transactions have been in Saint Paul and the North Metro area. Shoreview and it's surrounding areas are my absolute favorite, but I also enjoy farther north/west/east and exploring newer areas too!!! Minnesota has too many awesome areas to explore!
