  • Market Conditions: Look at current housing market trends. If it’s a seller’s market with high demand and low supply, you might get a better price and sell faster.

  • Home Value: An appraisal or comparative market analysis (CMA) can give you a good sense of your home’s value and whether it’s a good time to sell.

  • Local Trends: See if homes in your area are selling quickly and for good prices. This can give you insight into local market conditions.

  • Personal Circumstances: Reflect on your personal situation—job changes, financial needs, or lifestyle adjustments can impact your decision.

  • Economic Indicators: Watch for economic factors like interest rates. Lower rates can attract more buyers, potentially improving your selling conditions.

  • Seasonality: Real estate markets often have seasonal patterns. Spring and summer generally offer more activity than fall and winter.

Andika Duncan, a licensed real estate broker and Certified Home Evaluation Specialist at Showstopper Realty, can provide you with a comprehensive market analysis to help determine if this is the best time for you to sell.

The timeline for selling a home can vary, but the goal at Showstopper Realty is to sell your home as quickly as possible without compromising on price. Factors like market conditions, the price of the home, and how well it is marketed all influence how long the process takes.

Andika Duncan, as a Seller Representative Specialist and Real Estate Negotiation Expert, will work hard to ensure your home sells in a timely manner by targeting the right buyers and negotiating effectively.

Effective marketing is key to selling your home quickly and for the best price. Showstopper Realty provides a comprehensive marketing plan that includes:

  • Professional photography (with Andika Duncan, a member of Professional Photographers of America),
  • Matterport 3D Virtual Tours for immersive buyer experiences,
  • Premium listings on major real estate platforms like Zillow (as a Zillow Certified Photographer),
  • Online advertising, social media exposure, and more.

Our multi-channel approach ensures your home gets maximum visibility.

Negotiations can be one of the most stressful parts of selling a home, but with Andika Duncan, a certified Real Estate Negotiation Expert, you’re in good hands. She will handle all buyer offers, counter-offers, and requests, ensuring you get the best possible terms.

Her experience and negotiation skills, honed through her work at Showstopper Realty, mean that she can protect your interests while working toward a fair and profitable deal.

When selling your home, you’ll encounter a few standard costs, including:

  • Real estate commission (typically a percentage of the sale price),
  • Closing costs (such as title transfer fees and escrow charges),
  • Possible repairs or concessions requested by the buyer.

At Showstopper Realty, we believe in full transparency. Andika Duncan will walk you through all potential fees upfront so that there are no surprises at closing.

While not always necessary, making small repairs or improvements can significantly increase your home’s value and appeal to buyers. Andika Duncan, a Certified Home Marketing Specialist and Certified Home Evaluation Specialist, will advise you on which repairs are worth making and which can be left as-is. Sometimes, just staging or minor cosmetic changes can have a big impact.

At Showstopper Realty, we work to ensure that any recommended repairs will help you get the most return on your investment.

Once you’ve accepted an offer, the buyer typically requests a home inspection. This allows them to evaluate the condition of the property. If the inspection reveals issues, the buyer may ask for repairs or a price reduction.

Andika Duncan, as a Seller Representative Specialist, will guide you through this process, ensuring any negotiations or requests are handled smoothly and in your best interest.
