Top Five Worst Things About Selling A House

Open Houses. It’s never fun to have a bunch of strangers traipsing through your house.
Taxes. Lets face it, capital gains taxes are a bummer.
Sellers Can’t Back Out. The sales contract offers the buyer many outs. The seller, however, can only cancel an accepted deal if the buyer neglects the deal.
Timing. Most sellers are also buyers, which means that at some point during the transaction you will be paying two mortgages—or you will have nowhere to live.
Your Buyer Could Sue. California is a litigious state, and each year we see more and more people suing over sour real estate transactions.

Top Five Best Things About Selling A House

Your Pockets. Savvy sellers usually end up with a big fat check at the close of escrow.
Moving Up. People who sell usually turn around and buy bigger and better houses.
Spring Cleaning. Putting your house on the market gives you the perfect excuse to give your house the makeover you’ve been wanting. It will have never looked better.
Choices. You never have to accept an offer. The great thing about being a seller is that you get to sit around, waiting for people to offer you their life savings in return for you house. If you like their offer, you take it. If you want more, you ask for it. It's all up to you.
Me. With a good agent behind you, you don’t have to worry about marketing, showings or filing paperwork—we take care of it for you.
