WELCOME HOME SELLERS!

Selling Your Home

Prepare and stage your home for sale to get the best price for your home. Your realtor will assist you upon inspection of the property.

Do repairs in home prior to listing your home, if necessary. This will help in selling your home if repairs are taken care prior to selling.

Market can fluctuate. Price home according to market value of last homes listed, in escrow, and sales of homes in the last six months, market conditions, features of other homes competing, and understanding of the market place. The Hawaii market is very different from mainland homes being sold. Local, mainland, and foreign buyers are in our marketplace.

Continue assessing market conditions, other homes you are competing with, price adjustments of homes for sale, new inventory, and closed activity sales to be in the best position to sell.

Have a marketing plan and establish goals to determine time period to sell your home. When do you need to be at your new location?

Prior to selling consult your tax attorney or CPA regarding any tax advice. Presently, there is a $250,000 exemption on your capital gain on selling your residence for a single person and $500,000 exemption for a married couple. For investors, long term gain is 15% of capital gain but subject to change in the future.
