List and Sell Your Barrington Property

Absentee sellers of Barrington property are not few and far between. I show a lot of homes every week and many of them are vacant, the owners have moved on, but they still need to sell. Sometimes it's just easier to move and get settled in the new place and worry about the old one when the dust settles a little.

Listing and selling Barrington property as an absentee owner has it's own set of hurdles.

First unless you made a choice before you left, you need to find a Realtor® you feel comfortable with, not easy to do without a face to face meeting. Searching the internet is likely going to be the tool of choice to see who has a good online presence and use of todays technology. I hope that's how you found me! For the face to face equivalent check out my testimonials and then call me. I am more than happy to chat about your goals and the obstacles and formulate a plan for us.

Once that's done contracts need to be taken care of, so the process can start. I can email you the contracts, you can email them back or mail with a set of keys. Of course having an open line of conversation via email will make this process a lot easier.

My job is then to get your property on the market, advertised and sold but vacant homes can throw us a little curveball every now and then. It's important that I visit the home at least once a week. Daily would be better but that's a little tough to fit in. As long as I visit regularly we'll know about any problems sooner rather than later. It also gives the oppportunity to fluff and flush. I will flush the toilets, pick up any trash, vacuum up the bugs, and make sure the house looks good and smells nice. 25 bugs in a room makes a buyer think the house has been abandoned for a long time and that to you means less dollars. Flushing the toilets not only cleans but keeps the plumbing operating. It's the little things that can have the biggest impact.

Property Management of Vacant Homes While Selling

Because I own my own company and we have a property management company-albeit small-I'll take care of your home while it's listed for sale as part of my service. Even the simple flush and fluff service will help keep it looking in top shape and maximizing your sale.
