FAQ for Sellers in Chicago
1. What's the first step I should take to sell my home in Chicago?
The first step is I would put together and go over a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) with you. This analysis evaluates recent sales of similar homes in your area and helps us discuss your goals and expectations for the sale. Once we establish a competitive price, I will assist you in preparing your home for sale. This includes making necessary repairs, enhancing curb appeal, and decluttering to attract potential buyers in the competitive Chicago market.
2. How long will it take to sell my home?
The time it takes to sell your home can vary based on factors such as pricing, market conditions, and property location. On average, homes in Chicago may take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months to sell. By leveraging my marketing strategies and local expertise, I will help ensure your home sells as quickly as possible for the best price.

Absolutely! I believe that staging your home can significantly increase buyer interest and lead to higher offers by helping potential buyers visualize living in the space effectively.
4. What marketing strategies will be used to sell my home?
I will implement various marketing strategies to maximize exposure for your property, including online listings, professional photography, targeted social media promotion, and hosting open houses.

As a seller, you can typically expect to pay around 5% to 6% in commission fees to real estate agents, along with title insurance, transfer taxes, and other miscellaneous fees related to the sale process. I'll provide you with a detailed estimate based on your home’s value to ensure you’re fully informed.
