Selling your home

Price is the decision everything else depends on. Here's how I do it, and what it actually costs to sell in Ohio.

How a sale actually works
  1. Price it from closed salesThree to five homes a real buyer actually paid for in the last six months. Adjust both directions. Price at or just under a search bracket, never just over.
  2. Prep that paysDeclutter, deep clean, fix the small stuff. Professional photos on every listing at no cost to you. Skip the $30,000 kitchen.
  3. Get it in front of every buyerMLS, syndication, social, my agent network, and an open house with a QR code so visitors leave with the facts and my number.
  4. Showings you don't have to runShowing app, lockbox, feedback that comes back to you through me.
  5. Read the offer on net, not priceA net sheet turns two different offers into one honest comparison. Certainty of closing matters as much as the number.
  6. Inspection to closingRepair requests, appraisal, title, underwriting. Thirty to forty-five days, and I keep it on the rails.

What it costs to sell here

  • Ohio conveyance fee, commonly $3–$4 per $1,000 of price. Seller customarily pays.
  • Title exam, deed prep, settlement fee: roughly $300–$700 combined.
  • Property tax proration. Ohio taxes are paid in arrears, so you credit the buyer for months you owned the home. This surprises almost everyone.
  • Owner's title insurance only if a buyer asks and you agree; you're never obligated.
  • My compensation: negotiable, in writing, in dollars, before you sign anything.
