    Selling your home has never been easier!!!  Instead of offering just one marketing program like most realtors, I offer sellers a "menu" of services.  From a paper-work only low "flat-fee"...to a full blown Multiple Listing Service (MLS®) Marketing program, seller can choose the program or services that they feel they want and need to sell their home.

    Yes! I can show your home!  Some homeowners have limited availability to show their home, I can be on call to show your home when a prospective buyer is ready to see it!    

    Yes! I can negotiate the puchase agreement!  If the Buyer is interested in buying your home, I can handle all negotiating and paperwork.

I can oversee the closing process!  There are many details that require expert attention once the purchase agreement is excepted.  I work hard to ensure that everything tha needs to be done ...gets done.  This includes working with the lender, appraiser, inspectors, attorneys, and escrow companies.

In order for a buyer to purchase your home, they first need to be aware that it is for sale!!!!  This sometimes requires more than an advertisement in the newspaper, which is a great start!  I expose your home to buyers be utilizing the following primary marketing avenues:

• Local Advertising (including but not limited to:Home Journal, MLS Publication, Open House Listings, Rapid City Journal, etc....)

• and MOST IMPORTANTLY the MLS (Multiple Listing Service)...this is what buyer know and respect. Buyers want to have a third party representative 90% of the time when purchasing a home!
