Keller Williams Realty Puget Sound - Danylle Guerrero
Why am I the right Realtor for you?

Having a trusted, knowledgeable realtor working for you during the home selling or buying process is extremely important for several key reasons:

  1. Pricing Expertise - Real Estate is local, not national. I understand our local housing market and can appropriately price your home based on current comparable sales and market trends. If it’s priced too low, you leave money on the table. If it’s too high, you risk deterring buyers. Getting this right is crucial.
  2. Marketing Reach - I have valuable MLS access to list your home where the most buyers will see it, and connections to get info out across their contacts. Your visibility hugely impacts sale potential.
  3. Negotiation Skills - Navigating counteroffers, contingencies, and terms of a deal can get complicated quickly. I have master negotiation experience to handle this process smoothly and advocate for your best interests.
  4. Knowledge & Guidance - As an experienced Realtor, I can anticipate hurdles before they happen, provide preemptive solutions, walk you through each step, and avoid unwanted surprises that lose time or money.

The right Realtor is your teammate before, during and after the transaction - getting your home sold for the most money in the shortest time with least stress on your end. My expertise and counsel add unmeasurable value.

Selling a home can be really hard for a few key reasons:
  1. Emotional attachment - Homes often have memories, milestones, and emotional connections that make it hard for sellers to objectively evaluate or properly stage/declutter their space. This can deter buyers.
  2. Logistics complexity - Coordinating repairs, inspections, appraisals, mortgage processes and lots of paperwork while also prepping your home for showings and managing your own housing transition is extremely taxing.
  3. Optimizing timing - Homes often sell faster or for more money at certain times. Knowing when to wait for more activity or lower inventory to list can seem impossible.
  4. Pricing challenge - Over- or under-pricing by even a small margin can turn buyers away or lead to accepting less profit. The housing market fluctuates, making ideal pricing a moving target.
  5. Buyer issues - Even when there’s interest, deals can unexpectedly fall through due to buyer financing, appraisal gaps, inspection negotiations, and changing circumstances.

With so many moving parts - personal, operational, financial - successfully orchestrating a home sale is far from straightforward. As an experienced Realtor, I help simplify and provide expertise that the average homeowner lacks on their own.

The Selling Process

  1. Determine listing price - I will help you determine the right listing price for your home based on market data, comparable listings, home features, location, and more.
  2. Prepare the property - To maximize the sales price, you’ll want to make updates or repairs needed and thoroughly clean/stage your home before listing it.
  3. Market and show property - I will have professional photographs, high level marketing and advertising, and schedule showings for potential buyers.
  4. Receive and evaluate offers - When offers come in, I will help you negotiate, compare, and determine the right one for your situation.
  5. Conduct inspections/appraisal - Once an offer is accepted, inspections protect the buyers and appraisals protect lending institutions.
  6. Final walk-thru - A final walk thru ensures repairs/contracts are fulfilled before closing.
  7. Closing and possession - You hand over the keys, pay any closing costs, sign paperwork to transfer ownership.

The key is working with an experienced realtor who can guide you through this process efficiently to get your home sold quickly and for top dollar. Let me know if you have any other real estate questions!

Buying a home can be hard for a few reasons:

  1. Financial Prep - Saving for a down payment while also maintaining your credit score and financial profile for a mortgage can be extremely tough for buyers. I connect you with the right lender to make sure this is as easy as possible.
  2. Competition - In our housing market, there are a lot more prospective buyers than available inventory. This leads to competitive offers and bidding wars that can price some buyers out. It is crucial to have me by your side to make sure your offer stands out against all the others.
  3. Contingencies - Navigating home inspections, appraisals potentially coming in under purchase price, seller negotiations, and contingent offers adds layers of complexity to the buying process. Our forms are always changing, and staying on top of current forms and what they mean are of extreme importance to me.
  4. Changing Interest Rates - Unpredictable mortgage rates can impact your purchasing power. Locking rates with fluctuating inventory is complicated. Utilizing my preferred lenders will put you at an advantage with their expertise in our unpredictable market.
  5. Transition Timing - Coordinating the sale of your current home, housing overlap if needed, moving logistics, and closing timelines, all while still going about your daily life can be massively stressful. I am here to hold your hand on this journey and guide you through one of the most rewarding experiences you will ever have.

Between saving up, winning bids, securing financing, finalizing terms with the seller, and adjusting your life around the purchase, successfully buying a home requires perseverance. The right Realtor serves as an invaluable guide to help you deal with obstacles, understand market conditions, negotiate better, and get the keys to your new home!

The Buying Process

  1. Get pre-approved for a mortgage - Work with my preferred lenders to get pre-approved so you know your budget and can show sellers you are a serious buyer when submitting offers.
  2. Identify needs & wants - Make a wish list of what you’d like in a home regarding location, size, features, etc. so I know what to look for.
  3. View homes & make offers - I will schedule showings for houses matching your criteria. When you find “the one”, I’ll help you put in a competitive offer.
  4. Negotiate terms & finalize details - When your offer is accepted, I handle negotiations, inspections, appraisals and other key steps prior to closing.
  5. Complete final walk-thru - Do one last walk-thru of the home right before closing to ensure condition compliance.
  6. Close on your new home! - Sign all paperwork, pay closing costs and get the keys! Now you can move into your new residence.

Having an experienced Realtor guide you through these steps makes the complex process of buying a home much more manageable so you can focus on getting excited about your new investment! Let me know if any other home buying questions come up!
