Selling your Portland Metro or Willamette Valley home doesn’t have to be a source of stress and anxiety. At Lovejoy Real Estate, we believe that with a little preparation, selling your home can be a smooth and enjoyable process. Here are a few tips from our experienced team of real estate professionals to help you get started:

Get to know our local housing market.

Take the time to speak with one of our agents and learn about the current value of your home and what comparable properties are selling for in your specific Portland Metro or Willamette Valley neighborhood. It’s important to remember that the value of older homes in our area can be more nuanced than just square footage or school zone, so having a local expert on your side is key.

Work with a trusted listing agent.

When it comes time to list your home, it’s crucial that you choose a real estate agent who is knowledgeable about your neighborhood and has a genuine connection with you. Your Lovejoy agent will be your trusted advisor throughout the process, offering support and guidance every step of the way.

Plan for a realistic timeline.

Selling your home is not a quick process, so it’s essential to set a realistic timeframe for your sale. Depending on the condition of your home, it may take 2-4 weeks or more to prepare your property for the market. When you’re ready, reach out to us at Lovejoy Real Estate and we can help you determine a timeline that works best for you, and provide any assistance you may need to get your home ready for sale.
