Preparing For Sale

Your advice about selling in the spring, about using Gary’s services for renovations and staging, hiring an excellent and reasonably priced moving company and advertising our house worldwide as well as nationwide (great photos) made the sale as beneficial and quick as it was.

We are and will be happy to recommend you and your services to all who ask. Warmest good wishes to you both for “good fortune” in your work to come.

Buyers offer the highest price when a home looks its best — that’s why we invest immense effort preparing your home for sale.

There’s much for us to do before we schedule our professional photographer’s photo shoot and creating our online and print marketing photo portfolio.

We take care of these details because selling can be stressful, even if you’ll be closer to family or starting a new job. With the experience which comes from having represented over 500 families, we know how to make sure:

You receive the highest possible price for your home

and

The experience as smooth as possible for you!

As I write this, on this last night before relinquishing ownership, you are in the house putting up a fire alarm to fulfill a last-minute request from the buyer. I cannot thank you enough for making my life as easy as it could have been made during a period of high stress and doubt. I made the right decision to sell and hired the right people to help me.

Grazie Mille!
