Lara is a professional and well informed realtor!! We have worked with Lara on both buying (2 years ago) and selling (04/2022) our home. Her expertise as both a buyer and seller agent is invaluable. We highly recommend Lara.

Lara, was the most professional and informative realtor I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Lara took the time to get to understand what I was looking for and was very timely in responding to all my requests with knowledge and expertise. Lara knows the Tampa and surrounding areas, which was super awesome. She is a rock star. I don't ever leave reviews, however, I felt it necessary to give a shout out to Lara. I would highly recommend Lara in all your realtor needs.

Lara was wonderful and made my first-time home buying experience a breeze. She really listened to everything I was looking for and helped me find the perfect house for me, even in this crazy market. She has also been super helpful explaining all the new things I needed to know when it comes to buying a first home.

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Lara from her beyond impressive knowledge of real estate and the market to friendliness and responsiveness Lara and her agency are amazing. In today's market you need someone who knows what they are doing and Lara knows through experience and her impressive record of successful sales and buys. It's so much more than just offering a number to buy a house these days with the housing shortage and appraisal gaps you need knowledge. Lara was not the first realtor I've used, but she will be the last, trust me when I say that the right realtor is so important into todays world or you will miss out on your dream home or be put in a situation if you're selling that you don't get everything you need from the sale again beyond just a price tag. Lara also has so many connections in real estate due to her extensive experience that she makes the tedious and scary house buying process not tedious or scary at all. This process has been a great experience and I cannot believe I did not use Lara sooner! What a great experience when I know so many others do not have such positive outcomes. Thank you Lara for everything you've done and continue to do, I look forward to always working with you!

The goal is to make your home as appealing as possible to the most potential buyers, before photos of your home are taken. Staging your home can include anything from redecorating to rearranging furniture, cleaning or other aesthetic strategies to present the home in the best possible light. You can do it yourself, have your real estate agent guide you, or hire a staging company.
In most cases, the buyer pays for the home inspection.
If someone is selling a home that needs repairs - yet chooses not to fix them - they may choose to list a property as-is. Disclosures and inspections are typical steps in the process. In an as-is sale, a buyer is willingly purchasing the home in its current state with full knowledge of its condition.
When selling a property, it is incumbent upon the seller to disclose any details about the home that might negatively affect its value.
Factors such as the time of year and market conditions play a big role in how quickly a property sells. How you price, market and stage your home are also very important variables that will affect how long a home remains on the market.
Any fixture that is ‘attached’ or built into the house typically remains. For example, if your house has built-in bookshelves, they typically stay with the house. The same is true of kitchen or bathroom fixtures, and fireplaces. Exceptions and details can be discussed during the negotiation process.
There are many factors that affect the housing market, but understanding what to expect - and being prepared beforehand - can make buying and selling a property at the same time possible.
A professional appraiser will inspect a property and compare it to other similar homes in the area. From there, a fair market value is determined. Unless you plan on paying all cash for a property, you will likely need a home appraisal.
A real estate agent is paid as part of the closing costs, which comes out of the sale proceeds at the end of the process.
Your first step is to hire a real estate agent you trust. Together, you will set an asking price, prepare your home for listing, list and market your property, negotiate an offer, and close on the sale.
Sharing particular information when connecting with a real estate agent can help give you an idea of your home’s value in today’s market. The in-person expertise of a real estate agent will give you a more accurate opinion of your home’s value.
