Selling your home in Palm Beach County

We'll help you price it right, get it ready, market it well and negotiate the best terms, so you walk away with the most money and the least stress.

How selling works

Step 1
Price it right
We review recent sales of similar homes nearby, current competition and market conditions, and recommend a price that attracts buyers without leaving money behind.
Step 2
Get it ready
Small repairs, a deep clean, decluttering and fresh paint where needed usually pay off. We'll tell you what's worth doing and what isn't.
Step 3
Market it
Professional photos, a strong listing on the MLS and major home search sites, and showings scheduled around your life.
Step 4
Review offers
We compare offers on more than price: financing, contingencies, closing date and how likely each buyer is to close. Then we negotiate for you.
Step 5
Inspections and appraisal
The buyer inspects the home and may ask for repairs or credits. If they're financing, the lender orders an appraisal. We handle the back-and-forth.
Step 6
Close
The title company prepares the paperwork and pays off your mortgage. You sign, hand over the keys and receive your proceeds.

Real estate commission, which is negotiable
Florida documentary stamp tax on the deed
Title and settlement fees; in Palm Beach County the seller typically pays for the buyer's owner's title insurance policy
Payoff of your mortgage and any other liens
Prorated property taxes and any HOA or condo fees through closing
Repairs or credits negotiated after the buyer's inspection

Florida sellers must disclose known problems that materially affect a home's value and aren't easy for a buyer to see.
Gather your documents early: permits, roof and system ages, warranties, insurance history and HOA or condo documents.
Selling in a condo or HOA community? The association may need to approve the buyer, which can affect your timeline.
If you're leaving a homesteaded home, ask a tax advisor how that affects the property taxes on your next home.
