The Ultimate Step-by-Step Guide to Selling Your Home with Tara Molina Real Estate Group
Selling a home is one of the biggest financial and emotional decisions you’ll make, and choosing the right real estate agent can make all the difference. At Tara Molina Real Estate Group, we simplify the home-selling process by offering expert guidance, strategic marketing, and a seamless transaction experience. Whether you’re upgrading, downsizing, relocating, or selling an investment property, our proven system ensures you get the best price, in the shortest time, with the least stress.
Here’s everything you need to know about selling your home with us:
Step 1: Initial Consultation & Home Evaluation
Your journey to a successful home sale starts with an in-depth consultation where we assess your property, market conditions, and your unique goals.
What to Expect:
✔ We’ll tour your home and discuss its features, upgrades, and potential selling points.
✔ We’ll conduct a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) to determine the fair market value based on recent sales in your area.
✔ We’ll go over current real estate trends, market demand, and your timeline expectations.
✔ We’ll provide expert recommendations on staging, repairs, or minor upgrades that could increase your home’s value and maximize your sale price.
💡 Pro Tip: Even if you’re not planning to sell immediately, a home evaluation can help you prepare strategically for when the time is right.
Step 2: Preparing Your Home for Sale
First impressions matter. A well-prepared home can attract more buyers, sell faster, and command a higher price.
How We Help You Prepare:
✔ Home Staging Recommendations – Our expert advice (or professional staging services if needed) ensures your home looks its absolute best.
✔ Decluttering & Depersonalizing – A clean, neutral home allows buyers to envision themselves living there.
✔ Professional Photography & Videography – We capture high-quality images, virtual tours, and drone footage to make your home stand out.
✔ Pre-Listing Repairs & Improvements – Small fixes like fresh paint, landscaping, or updating light fixtures can add thousands to your sale price.
💡 Pro Tip: Homes that are staged and professionally marketed sell up to 73% faster than those that aren’t.
Step 3: Strategic Pricing & Marketing Plan
Pricing your home correctly from the start is key to attracting buyers and avoiding sitting on the market too long.
How We Set the Perfect Price:
✔ Market Data & Trends – We analyze past sales, current competition, and buyer demand.
✔ Strategic Pricing Approach – We position your home competitively to attract maximum interest while ensuring top dollar.
✔ Pre-Listing Exposure – Before your home even hits the market, we create buzz among qualified buyers and realtors.
Our Multi-Platform Marketing Strategy Includes:
✔ MLS® Listing – Your home will be showcased on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS®), reaching thousands of buyers.
✔ Social Media Advertising – Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and YouTube promotions to targeted buyer demographics.
✔ Google & Digital Advertising – Paid online exposure to put your home in front of buyers searching in your area.
✔ Professional Print Marketing – Custom brochures, flyers, and postcards sent to potential buyers and top agents.
✔ Exclusive Database Promotion – Your listing is shared with our extensive network of buyers, investors, and real estate professionals.
💡 Pro Tip: Our strategic marketing plan ensures your home gets maximum visibility in the first critical days on the market.
Step 4: Listing Your Home & Showcasing It to Buyers
Once your home is officially listed, we ensure it gets seen by the right buyers.
What Happens Next:
✔ High-Impact Listing Launch – We go live on MLS®, social media, and real estate platforms with full-scale marketing.
✔ Open Houses & Private Showings – We host open houses and coordinate showings to get as many eyes on your home as possible.

💡 Pro Tip: Homes that get multiple showings in the first two weeks sell faster and for more money!
Step 5: Negotiating the Best Offer
Receiving an offer is exciting, but it’s just the beginning of the negotiation process.
How We Maximize Your Sale Price:
✔ Reviewing Offers – We analyze the price, conditions, financing terms, and closing timelines to determine the best offer.
✔ Skilled Negotiation – We negotiate aggressively on your behalf to get you the highest price and best terms.
✔ Counteroffers & Multiple Offers – If multiple buyers are interested, we strategically position your home for a bidding war.
💡 Pro Tip: With our proven negotiation strategies, our sellers consistently achieve top-dollar results.
Step 6: Conditions, Inspections & Closing Process
Once we’ve accepted an offer, there are still important steps before the sale is finalized.
Here’s What Happens Next:
✔ The buyer completes financing approval and any required conditions.
✔ The home inspection takes place (we help navigate any issues that arise).
✔ We guide you through legal paperwork with your lawyer.
✔ The sale becomes firm, and you start packing for your next adventure!
💡 Pro Tip: We work closely with mortgage brokers, lawyers, and movers to ensure a smooth closing process.
Step 7: SOLD & Moving Day!
Congratulations, your home is officially SOLD! 🎉
