Send us a text
The journey of selling a home isn't always tied to joyful life milestones. For many, it happens during challenging transitions like divorce, health issues, or major life changes. In this enlightening conversation with Jen Cameron, managing partner at The Agency Seattle, we explore the nuanced process of selling homes during difficult times.Jen brings her wealth of experience working with divorcing couples to the table, sharing how a skilled agent creates strategies tailored to complex situations. "Hope is not a strategy," she emphasizes, revealing that 90% of a successful home sale happens before the property ever hits the market. While many sellers focus on commission rates when interviewing agents, Jen suggests asking instead about their specific strategy for your home and what sets them apart from others.For those navigating divorce while selling property, timing doesn't have to align perfectly with legal proceedings. Jen explains how home sale proceeds can go into trust accounts while other aspects finalize, creating flexibility during an already stressful time. She also addresses the importance of proper staging, noting that personal belongings rarely make effective staging elements, no matter how beloved they might be to the seller.What truly distinguishes exceptional agents is their ability to handle special circumstances with sensitivity. Whether accommodating special needs family members, health concerns, or emotional triggers, Jen describes how customized showing protocols can protect sellers while still maximizing property exposure. Her practice of vetting potential buyers before showings ensures only serious, qualified prospects enter your home.The takeaway is clear: knowledge is power in real estate transactions. Consulting with a professional early—sometimes a year before listing—provides invaluable guidance and removes unnecessary stress from the process. By finding an agent who understands your unique situation and creates a strategy before the sign goes in the yard, you transform what could be an overwhelming experience into a manageable one with optimal results.
