When the Shanahan Luxury Group lists your home, they ensure a seamless and efficient process. Showings are scheduled at times convenient for sellers, and feedback is communicated promptly. The team maintains active communication with agents representing potential buyers and keeps sellers informed about advertising efforts, the current state of the market, and the home’s performance compared to similar listings. This comprehensive approach ensures sellers are always up-to-date and confident in the selling process.

Once we deem the offer is acceptable, we will review the proposed contract to make sure it’s all in order and includes the necessary components such as deposit amount, down payment, financing terms, inspection period, repair limits, contingencies, settlement date, and who will pay title costs. When both parties have agreed to the terms, a final contract will be prepared by our team.

You have reached the final step in the selling process: closing. At this stage, you will legally transfer ownership of the property to the new buyer. This involves meeting with the closing company to sign the final paperwork, or possibly arrange for signing remotely if you will not be in town. You will need to handle final details such as canceling utilities so the new owners can open accounts in their names. Additionally, gather all keys, community fobs, garage remotes, and door and alarm codes to leave for the new owners. It is also helpful to provide a list of instructions or information about items in the home, such as smart features or appliances, that the new owners may need to know.
