Home / Sell
Priced on real comparables, prepared properly, and negotiated by the same person who took your first call.
A list price comes from four things: what has closed recently in your community, what is competing with you right now, the condition of the property and your own timeline. You get the reasoning attached to the number rather than the number that is easiest to hear.
Overpricing costs more than time. The first two weeks are when a listing gets its best traffic, and a price correction later rarely recovers what the opening week would have.
You will get a preparation list that separates the work that returns money from the work that does not. Paint, pressure washing, landscaping and decluttering usually pay. A full kitchen renovation days before listing usually does not.
Photography, the MLS write-up and syndication are handled properly, because for most buyers the first showing now happens on a phone.
Offers, counters, inspection findings, financing and title all get coordinated through to the table. You hear from Steven when something changes, not a week later.
The most useful conversations happen six to twelve months out, while there is still time to decide what is worth doing to the house. There is no cost to that call and no obligation attached to it.
The process
A call before a contract. Your timeline, your budget and what the move actually has to achieve, before anyone opens a search portal.
Buying: the communities that genuinely fit and what they cost to own. Selling: a price backed by comparable sales, and a preparation list.
Showings, marketing, offers and counters. You hear from Steven when something changes, not a week later.
Inspection, financing and title coordinated through to the table. Afterwards you still have his number, and the brokerage behind it.

No. The most useful conversations happen six to twelve months out, while there is still time to decide what is worth doing to the house and what is not. There is no cost to that call.
Steven does. Calls and texts go to his phone and he is the one at the negotiating table, with a boutique brokerage and its management team behind him.
