Real estate agents play a huge role in one of the most important financial decisions of our lives. When it comes to buying, selling, leasing, or renting, they’re the ones who shepherd us through a process that can only be described as overwhelming. In real estate, as in any other industry or professional arena, you have the mediocre masses and the few star performers, the cream of the crop. And usually the best people aren’t the best because they were born with special abilities or talents. No, they are successful because they work harder, strive to be the best, and go the extra mile. But it’s also because they have discovered certain “secrets’ – highly effective actions and strategies – that the rest don’t know about. So let’s take a look at the 5 selling secrets from Shoreline’s top real estate agents.

So you’ve listed your house and shown it a few times, and now the offers are beginning to roll in. But how do you assess offers and determine the best or right one? Price – the amount of an offer – is not the only (or even the primary) factor involved in choosing the right offer. You also have to assess the buyer, as well as certain risk factors. To help you choose wisely, here’s an overview of how to choose the right offer when selling your house in Shoreline.
Selling your home can be such an overwhelming process. There are so many minor and major details to consider in every step at either side of the real estate which can be a lengthy, complicated process involving many inter-related and sometimes confusing steps, especially for first-time sellers.

So, naturally, sellers usually have a slew of questions – even before they begin the selling process. With that in mind, here are our most frequently asked questions from home sellers in Seattle.
