Selling in North Texas

Sell With a Plan, Not a Guess

Price it right, prepare it well, and know what you will walk away with before you list.

The Process

How Selling With Brad Works

1. Price It Right

A price set from what has actually sold near you, not from an online estimate. The first two weeks on the market matter most.

2. Prepare the House

A short list of what to fix, clean and clear, and what to leave alone. Spend where buyers notice.

3. Market It

Photos, the MLS and the major home sites, and showings set up around your schedule.

4. Negotiate

Price is only one term. Option period, repairs, closing date and credits all change what you keep.

5. Close

Brad keeps the buyer's lender, the title company and the inspectors moving until the closing table.

Before You List

What to Fix First

The Things Inspectors Flag

Roof, HVAC, water heater, plumbing leaks and electrical. Fixing these before you list avoids a long repair list later.

First Impressions

Fresh paint in neutral colors, a clean yard and a front door that looks cared for. Cheap, and buyers notice.

Less Stuff

Clear counters, closets and garage. Buyers need to picture their own things in the house.

What Would You Walk Away With?

Enter a sale price and what you still owe. Adjust the rest to match your situation.

An estimate from the numbers you enter. Brokerage fees are negotiable and set in your listing agreement, so change the percentage to match yours. Actual figures depend on your contract, loan payoff and closing costs.

Seller Questions

Questions Sellers Ask Most

How do you decide on a list price?

From recent sales of similar homes nearby, adjusted for size, condition, lot and updates, and checked against what is on the market right now. Online estimates cannot see inside your house.

Should I make repairs before listing?

Fix what an inspector will flag and what a buyer sees first. Skip big remodels; they rarely pay back in full.

How long will it take to sell?

It depends on price, condition and the season. A well-priced home gets most of its attention in the first two weeks.

What does it cost to sell?

Brokerage fees, which are negotiable, plus title, any repairs or credits, and your loan payoff. The calculator above gives a rough net.

Can I buy and sell at the same time?

Yes. It takes planning around financing and timing, which is where Brad's background in lending helps.
