Hi there! Another popular question I often get asked is: “What does it really cost to sell my home?” And that’s a great question—because selling a home isn’t just about listing it and waiting for offers. There are a few key expenses to keep in mind, and I’m here to walk you through them. Let’s start with commission fees. This is what’s paid to me to help you sell your home. It covers everything from walking the property and completing the listing paperwork, to marketing, showings, contract negotiations, inspections, and more. Think of it as an investment that helps you get the best possible price with the least amount of stress. That’s why you’ve hired me—to make the process as smooth and successful as possible. Next up: closing costs. These are the fees associated with finalizing the sale. They can include title services, legal paperwork, and other administrative items. While buyers have their own closing costs, sellers typically cover a portion too. Now, let’s talk about repairs and updates. Before your home hits the market, we’ll walk through and discuss any items you might choose to fix or refresh— maybe a coat of paint, minor repairs, or some curb appeal upgrades. These aren’t always required, but they can make a big difference in how buyers perceive your home. Remember—you don’t get a second chance to make a first impression. And most buyers are browsing online before deciding to tour in person. Then there’s staging. Whether it’s professional staging or simply decluttering and rearranging, I’m happy to help with this step. Our goal is to help buyers picture themselves living there. A well-maintained, well-presented home tends to sell faster—and often for a better price. So yes—there are costs involved in selling your home, and this briefly covers some of them. But every dollar spent is part of a strategy to help you sell quickly, confidently, and for top value. When we work together, I’ll help you understand what’s worth investing in, what can be skipped, and how to make smart choices that align with your goals. I know selling your home is a big decision—and a significant life journey. And I’m here to guide you every step of the way, so you feel confident and supported throughout. Ready to talk about your next move? Reach out and let’s connect—I’d love to help you make it happen. I’m Robbin Kimbell—Your Heart, Your Home Realtor. Always here to help!

Hello there! When listing a property, pricing your home isn’t just about profit— it’s about what the current market reflects. The best listing price is a strategic balance. Too high, and it may sit too long on the market. Buyers scroll past or wonder why it hasn’t sold. Too low, and they may ask, “What’s wrong with it?” So how do we get it right? I start by analyzing current market trends. Is inventory rising or falling? Are homes selling quickly, or lingering for weeks? In a seller’s market, you have more leverage. In a buyer’s market, we need to be more competitive with our pricing strategy. Next, we look at recent sales—your local comparables. I focus on homes similar in square footage, condition, and location. What did they actually sell for—not just their list price? This gives us a realistic price range to work with. But here’s the key: buyer demand. Are buyers actively searching in your area? Are homes getting multiple offers? If demand is high, we can consider pricing at the top of the range. If it’s low, we may need to adjust accordingly. It’s a balancing act. And remember—buyers today are savvy. They’re comparing your home to others online long before they ever step inside. A well-maintained, well-priced home creates momentum and excites buyers. It gets showings, generates offers, and often sells faster— sometimes even above asking. Listing a home at the right price is often a “testing” phase to see how the market responds. So I’ll use my expertise, local data, and smart marketing strategies to position your home for top-dollar results. Because the right price isn’t just a number— it’s the key to a successful sale. Ready to price your home with confidence? Let’s connect. I’ll help you analyze the market, review the comparables, and position your home to sell for top dollar.
