Get A CMA or On-Site Evaluation
Obtaining a CMA or onsite evaluation is crucial for home sellers. It helps determine the right asking price may identify necessary pre-listing improvements, streamlining the selling process and maximizing returns.
Create A Disclosure Package
The importance a complete property disclosure package is often overlooked. There are hundreds of disclosure topics described in Maryland property law. Not disclosing a required piece of information, even if by omission, can provide a buyer the opportunity to cancel the contract or try to re-negotiate right up to the moment of settlement.
List Your Property Online
Once your property information is entered into the MLS, your listing will be exposed to a vast network of real estate professionals and potential buyers. The MLS system also syndicates your listing to brokerage websites and individual agent websites
Order Photos
High-quality photos and other media play a vital role in grabbing a buyer’s attention during their property search. As photos are often the first thing potential buyers notice, their quality significantly impacts the number of home tours and the speed of selling your property.

Managing the transaction can be a bit daunting. Custom software through our parter Proprdiy allows you to manage every aspect of the transaction from follow up with all parties to the contract as well as lenders, title agents, inspectors, contractors, etc. Proprdiy also maintains a record of all contingencies and timeframes to make sure the transaction moves smoothly from contract to close.
