Selling:

Expert Real Estate Guidance in the Bozeman Market

As full-time real estate brokers with in-depth experience in the Bozeman market, we develop a personalized strategy tailored to selling your home. We

Initial Consultation

Our process begins with an on-site meeting at your property. During this visit, we assess the current state of your home, make actionable recommendations for decluttering and staging, and lay the groundwork for a collaborative selling journey.

Preparing Your Home for Sale

We recognize your house is, first and foremost, your home, and understand that the selling process can be daunting. Reducing personal touches throughout your property helps make showings less intrusive and enables buyers to imagine themselves living there. Instead of being distracted by family photos or personal memorabilia, potential buyers can focus on picturing their future in the space.

Without objective, professional advice, it can be challenging to determine which projects take priority and which items should be removed before listing.

Pro tip: Select your favorite daily-use kitchen appliance and store the rest out of sight. Clear countertops make your kitchen—the heart of the home—feel spacious and inviting.

Strategy Development and Pricing

Following our initial meeting, we review what we have learned about your home’s condition, your goals for timing the closing, and your comfort level with showings. With these insights, we craft a sales strategy tailored to your needs. Together, we’ll examine the advantages and disadvantages of various pricing positions to select an approach that best supports your priorities, whether that’s prioritizing profit or meeting a specific timeline.



Tax Considerations

In Bozeman’s dynamic market, homeowners who have held their property for more than three years may benefit from consulting a tax advisor prior to listing. This ensures you are prepared with an appropriate tax strategy should a taxable event arise. If we didn’t have the chance to sell you the property you have asked us to, we will ask questions to help you determine if you should prioritize a meeting with a tax accountant prior to listing.

"To best serve you, we need to have a clear understanding of your goals"

• Is this move precipitated by a lifestyle change such as a job relocation?
• Are you flexible in your selling timeline?
• Are you “right-sizing” your new home (growing or reducing square footage?)
• Is your decision to sell subject to identifying an ideal replacement property?
• What are your drivers to make this move? 

The more you know about your “why,” the more likely we will meet your selling goals. Your motivation and timeline to sell will affect our pricing strategy and marketing plan. We can only exceed your expectations with a complete understanding of your drivers to transact in real estate.
