14 guide to SELLING YOUR HOME Closing 101 The closing process finalizes the sale of your home and makes everything official.

15 guide to SELLING YOUR HOME Pricing a Home Competitively The right price is important. A property generates the most interest when it first hits the market. The number of showings is greatest during this time if it is priced at a realistic market value.

Many homes that start high end up selling below market value. 550 Latona Road, Building C Suite 301 Rochester NY 14626

16 guide to SELLING YOUR HOME The Power of Pricing To get your home sold for the most money in the least time, we have to price it “in the market.” 550 Latona Road, Building C Suite 301 Rochester NY 14626
