Understanding Your Home
The condition of your home, compared to others that have recently sold or are currently on the market, is a critical factor in determining your potential sale price and how quickly your home will sell. Depending on your goals and timeline, we offer a range of solutions tailored to enhance your home’s value, especially if renovations could be beneficial.
Initial Assessment: Our first step is to research the price and condition of homes in your area that have sold in the past 6 to 12 months. This analysis helps establish the price differences based on recent renovations, as well as for homes not renovated in the last 5 or 10 years, and those needing significant repairs.
Consultation on Renovations: We then consult with our partners to provide ballpark estimates for strategic renovations that maximize your home’s value without over-improving it compared to similar homes in your area.
Goal Alignment and Solution Tailoring: After discussing your goals, we identify a customized solution that fits your needs, ensuring the best possible outcome.
Solutions for Homes Benefiting from Renovations:
Fix Then List: Elevate your property to a premium market position. We employ licensed contractors for key upgrades, allowing you to possibly defer costs until closing, and sell your home with advanced marketing strategies once improvements are complete.
Cash Out – Move Then Improve: This option provides quick access to funds, allowing for a smoother transition to your new home. Our team manages all renovations, reducing your stress and maximizing property value for a later sale, with profits settled after covering expenses.
Home Remodel Profit Sharing Program: Ideal for homes without a mortgage, this program involves partnering with builders to enhance your home’s value. Enjoy a hands-off renovation process and share in the increased profits from the sale.
As-Is Cash Offer: Sell your home swiftly in its current condition. This straightforward approach includes quick closing, competitive offers from our network, and no need for repairs or showings.
By aligning our renovation services with your needs, we simplify the selling process and strive to maximize your return with minimal stress.
Your Goals
Understanding your objectives is essential in crafting a selling strategy that aligns with your personal and financial aspirations. At the Hankerson Team, we recognize that each homeowner has unique goals that influence the way we approach the sale of your home. Here’s how we ensure your goals are at the forefront of our selling strategy:
Personal Consultation: We start with a personal consultation to discuss what’s most important to you in the sale of your home. Whether you’re looking to maximize profit, sell quickly, or minimize stress, we tailor our approach accordingly.
Goal-Oriented Strategy Development: Based on your specific objectives, we develop a strategy that utilizes our Menu of Services to best meet your needs. This might include:
- Maximizing Return: If your primary goal is to achieve the highest possible selling price, we might suggest strategic renovations, staging, and high-impact marketing campaigns.
- Speed of Sale: For homeowners looking to sell quickly, we might recommend our As-Is Cash Offer to expedite the process without the need for renovations or staging.
- Minimizing Hassle: If ease and convenience are your priorities, we can handle all aspects of the sale, from renovations and staging to negotiations and closing.
Flexible Solutions: Recognizing that your goals may evolve, we maintain flexibility in our approach, allowing adjustments to our strategy as needed to stay aligned with your current needs and market conditions.
Communication and Transparency: Throughout the process, we keep you informed with regular updates and check-ins. This ensures that you are always aware of how the sale is progressing relative to your goals and gives you the opportunity to make informed decisions at every step.
By deeply understanding your goals and integrating them into every aspect of our strategy, we ensure that the selling process not only meets but exceeds your expectations, delivering a personalized service that is as unique as your home.
Timeline Overview: The typical timeline to sell a home ranges from 2 weeks to 90 days, depending on the payment method, contingencies, condition of the home, and market conditions:
- As-Is Cash Offer: Since there is no mortgage processing or contingencies, only title work is needed, which can be completed in as little as two weeks.
- Sale with a Mortgage: This process typically requires at least 30 days to complete inspections, process the loan, and handle title work. The key contingencies are: 1) the inspection and any necessary agreements on repairs, 2) the appraisal to ensure the home meets the agreed-upon price, and 3) the loan approval, confirming that the buyer qualifies under lender criteria.
- Impact of Home Condition: In markets where the supply/demand ratio is under 50, the condition of the home significantly influences sale speed. Buyers usually prefer move-in-ready, remodeled homes. Homes that are not remodeled tend to sell slower in such markets.
- Market Conditions: These significantly affect how long it takes to sell a home, with key indicators being Days on Market and the Supply/Demand Ratio. In a seller’s market or hot market, the Days on Market are typically 30 or less, and the Supply/Demand Ratio is more than 60. In a balanced market, Days on Market range from 30 to 60, and the Supply/Demand Ratio sits between 50 and 60. In a buyer’s market or slow market, the Days on Market extend beyond 60, and the Supply/Demand Ratio is under 50.
December 2024 Stats: We are in a slow market that strongly favors buyers, with Days on Market averaging 80 and a Supply/Demand Ratio of 31.98%. (See Chart Below)
