At Scherb Homes Group, we believe every home has a story—and our job is to tell it in a way that delivers the highest possible return for our sellers. One recent sale perfectly illustrates how patience, preparation, and a clear strategy can transform a property into a top-market contender.

The Journey to Market

We first met with the sellers in February. From day one, our goal was to ensure the home was not just listed, but truly market-ready. Over several months, we worked closely with them, overseeing every detail. This included bringing in contractors, painters, plumbers, landscapers, and stagers to make strategic improvements. Through Vista Sotheby’s Elevate program, we secured a small loan to fund upgrades that would give the home an edge in a competitive market.

Preparation and Improvements

The timeline of preparation speaks to the level of detail we put into the project:

• March–June: Fire hardening inspections, deck repairs, exterior painting, roof power washing, and a professional deep clean.

• June 1: Landscaping front and back by Silverio’s team.

• June 4: Fresh interior paint completed right after the seller moved out.

• June 9: Professional staging brought the home to life, followed by drone photography and videography.

• June 17: The home went live across all platforms with a comprehensive marketing campaign that included postcards, social media, email blasts, and local networking.

Every improvement was intentional—done to highlight the home’s strengths and minimize objections from buyers.

Marketing and Exposure

We spared no effort in marketing. The property received:

• Drone footage and professional photography.

• A custom property video promoted on Instagram, Facebook, and to over 1,000 top agents.

• Direct mail campaigns, neighborhood previews, and door-to-door flyers.

• Multiple open houses every weekend to create buyer urgency.

• Off-market exposure through internal Sotheby’s networking before going live.

This layered approach ensured maximum visibility, both locally and globally.

Pricing and Negotiation

The home entered the market at $2.79M, though we had advised a slightly lower starting point. After several weeks of open houses and private showings, our marketing efforts attracted the right buyer. Ultimately, we secured an all-cash offer of $2.5M with a smooth 15-day close. Both seller and buyer walked away thrilled with the outcome.

Results That Speak for Themselves

From February to closing in late summer, this was a true partnership with our sellers—marked by countless hours of planning, calls, and on-site coordination. In the end, all of the preparation, patience, and marketing strategy came together to deliver the result every seller wants: a strong offer, fast close, and peace of mind.

Thinking About Selling?

If you’re considering selling your home, now is the time to plan. Preparing your property the right way can mean the difference between sitting on the market and achieving maximum ROI. At Scherb Homes Group, we specialize in hands-on preparation, smart marketing, and expert negotiation.
