Lori was a tremendous help during what was a rough market for buyers. She was by our side for 9 months answering questions, educating us about the home-selection and home-buying process, and helping us bid as first-time homebuyers. She was patient and didn't pressure us at all. We also appreciated how knowledgable she was about the bones of a house, remodeling, and home-owning tips. You can tell she has a lot of experience. She also got us in touch with great lenders and contractors. We highly recommend her!

I worked with Lori True and the Olsen Team for both, the purchase of my home and subsequently the sell of the same California home. Lori is very knowledgeable about the local market, she is an energetic and responsive realtor, in a hot housing market those attributes might be critical. Buying/Selling a house is a laborious task and Lori can help you narrow down to the important details. I strongly recommend Lori for you real estate transactions.

The realtor we worked with was Joy. Joy was more than helpful in finding us a home we loved! She was extremely honest, upfront, and was able to find us a great house that fit right in our price range! She was extremely communicative and easy to reach to answer any of our questions at all times. She made finding a home a breeze and we are very grateful we found her and her team. She is incredibly hard working and an all-around pleasure to work with. Can't thank her enough. Joy's team really care about their clients and are always updated with what’s going on in the market. She even drove us around since we didn't have our car shipped yet. I've worked with a few agents before but Joy is the best, I Highly recommend her! She is incredibly hard working and an all-around pleasure to do business with. Can't thank her enough.

Had an amazing experience with Ben and Erin Kelly. The two helped us understand the area and the current market conditions. Additionally, both helped identified areas to consider within each open house and provided honest and candid feedback during the process. At the end, Ben and Erin helped us find the house that we wanted within our budget and that's no easy task in today's environment.

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.

Who pays for a home inspection?

In most cases, the buyer pays for the home inspection.

What does selling a home ‘as-is’ mean?

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.

What is disclosure?

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.

What needs to stay when I sell my home?

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.

What is an appraisal for when I buy a house?

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.

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.
