How I Help Executors
Phase 1: Strategic Analysis
30-45 minute property review, followed by a documented analysis that includes current market value, repair ROI for every proposed improvement, as-is vs. improved scenarios, net proceeds projections, and complete documentation for beneficiaries.
Phase 2: Complete Listing Services (If Selling)
If you decide to move forward with a sale: professional listing and marketing, coordination of cleanout and repairs, transaction management through closing, and continued documentation at every step.
If you list with me, Phase 1 analysis is included at no additional charge.
