Thank you for considering us. We don't take it lightly - selling a home is one of the more emotionally complicated things a person does, even when the spreadsheet says it's a good decision. It's a part of the process that often goes unspoken, but we'll make room for it.
Here's what you should know about how we work. We came to real estate from hospitality, which taught us that the job is mostly about paying attention - to the house, to the market, and to the person making the decision. We'll tell you what we actually think, including the things other agents leave out: when a number is optimistic, when a repair isn't worth making, when waiting is smarter than listing. You don't need to already understand how any of this works. That's our job, and we'll explain it in plain language as we go.
What we're after isn't a transaction. It's the kind of relationship where you call us again in ten years - and send your friends our way long before that. The pages that follow walk through how we sell a home and what working with us looks like. But the short version is this: we'll do the work, we'll be honest with you, and we'll make a hard process feel a good deal less overwhelming than it might right now.
We're glad you're here. - Emily & Megan

Before we talk about price or paint colors, we want to understand why you're selling, where you're headed and what timing works for your life. Sometimes the honest answer is that waiting makes more sense than listing now, and we'll tell you if that's the case. When you're ready, we'll go through our listing agreement together, including exactly how we're paid.
The sale price isn't what ends up in your pocket. We'll estimate what you'll actually walk away with after your mortgage payoff, commissions, closing costs, your share of this year's property taxes and the title policy the seller usually pays for in Austin. No surprises at the closing table.
We'll look at what comparable homes have actually sold for, not just what they were listed at, and give you a number we believe in. If a price is optimistic, we'll say so. Homes priced too high tend to sit, and a home that sits usually ends up selling for less.
Not every repair is worth making. We'll help you decide what will pay you back and what buyers won't care about. Our list covers what to fix, what to leave, what to clear out and when a pre-listing inspection is worth doing. We'll also help you fill out the Seller's Disclosure Notice Texas requires, which is your written record of what you know about the home.
Buyers fall for details: the original hardwood, the light in the kitchen at 4 p.m., the porch that's seen a hundred summer evenings. We'll bring in professional photography and write a listing that describes your home the way someone who loves it would. Then we'll put it in front of the right buyers.
We'll schedule showings and open houses around your life as much as we can. You'll step out while buyers tour so they can picture themselves there. We'll share feedback with you as it comes in, including the parts that are hard to hear.
The highest price isn't always the best offer. We'll walk through each one with you: the buyer's financing, how long they want to inspect, the closing date, and whether they need to sell a home first. Then we'll negotiate for the terms that matter most to you.
Once you're under contract, the buyer usually has a short option period to inspect the home. If they ask for repairs, we'll help you decide what to fix, what to offer a credit for and what to politely decline. Their lender will also order an appraisal. If it comes in low, we'll talk through your options together.
You'll sign the final paperwork at the title company, hand over the keys and the house belongs to someone new. If you need a little more time to move, we can negotiate a short stay after closing, called a leaseback, as part of the deal.
Selling a home is part business deal and part goodbye, and it's okay if it feels like both. Take a moment to appreciate everything that happened in that house. We're still here after closing, whether you need help finding your next place, a mover we trust, or just someone to tell you how the new owners are doing on the block. Call us anytime.
