How we can work together.
01. Selling your house
Determining market value: We compare homes that have sold in the last 6 months that are within 1/2 mile and similar features. This is similar to what appraisers use, and we want your home to appraise.
We'll discuss and create a custom marketing plan to make sure your home is getting traction and is obtaining showings.
When we put the home on MLS (Multiple Listing Service) it pushes to over 75 websites for prospective buyers to see the home.
We will host Open Houses to the public to gain awareness and traction. This allows individuals who may not have scheduled a showing, stop by and fall in love with the home.
We will conduct Agent Tours to allow agent feedback and learn about the property so more agents are sharing it among their buyers.

02. Buying a house
Buyer's Agent are FREE for buyers. So we make this step 1 in the Buying Process! Don't go through the process alone when there are people who want to help you. We'd love to be that for you!
Once you know what you're qualified for, one of our agents will be happy to conduct a Buyer Needs Analysis. This helps us know what type of home you want.
Once we find you a home, we write an offer. This contains the purchase price and terms of the sale. They may counter and we can go back and forth depending on other offers and circumstances.
Now you're under contract, we work through the contingencies of the contract. These include Inspection, Appraisal, Insurance, Title Work and Financing (which does not expire).
Most contracts are around 45 days. Closing takes place at a Title Company and usually lasts about 45 minutes to 1 hour. You'll bring your ID and certified check to closing and obtain the keys from here!
03. Staging your house
Staging a home is a strategic marketing tool used by sellers to help buyers imagine themselves living in your home and fall in love with their property. Staging is more than just putting a new welcome mat in front of the door and getting new throw pillows - when done correctly it can help a home sell for more money in a shorter amount of time.
We will help you arrange the home in showing condition or discuss hiring a staging company. Once the home is ready, we always hire a professional photographer to take photos.
Staging makes the listing photos look phenomenal, attracting more buyers into the home
Staging allows buyers to envision themselves living in your home
Staging has been proven to get a higher price in shorter time

04. Investing
So you’ve decided to invest in real estate! The next question you’ll need to answer is the type of real estate you want to pursue. As a new investor, you’ve got three main options: residential, commercial, and land.
Residential includes single-family rentals, vacation rentals, small multi-family properties, and fix-and-flip homes.
Commercial includes retail and office space, industrial warehouses (huge right now!), and large multi-family properties.
Land includes investing in land for commercial, residential, farming or mining use.
1. Long-term residential rentals: People will always need a place to live but keep in mind, location is everything when it comes to real estate. Seriously, everything!
2. Lease purchase: Lease purchase is a smart way to get involved without having to put up significant capital. Plus, if you lock in when the market is climbing, you can potentially purchase later with built-in equity.
3. Home-renovation flips: Thanks to the popularity of home renovation shows, no explanation is needed for this one (Think Fixer Upper, Flip or Flop?, and Love It or List It).

“We couldn’t have picked a better person to help us in purchasing our first home… Jaidyn knows what she’s doing! Throughout the process of purchasing I was excited, anxious and all over the place with questions. Jaidyn made time to answer all my question (I literally texting me back all the time) and she’s so calm and collected we balanced each other perfectly! We’re team Jaidyn for sure.”
