Dexter · Selling Your Home

Selling your home in Dexter

A price based on real sales, a paid social media campaign, and a clear plan from your first meeting to closing day.

Selling your home in Dexter starts with which Dexter you're in

Selling your home in Dexter starts with a simple question: is your home on one of the older sidewalk streets near downtown, or in one of the more spread-out neighborhoods beyond it? Those are two different kinds of homes, and they appeal to two different kinds of buyers.

I lived in Dexter for 14 years, so I know both sides of town. I'll compare your home with the Dexter sales that truly match it, and we'll price your home together with the numbers in front of us.

Why Dexter sellers work with me

Every home I list gets professional photos, video, and drone footage, its own property website, a paid social media campaign for its first two weeks on the market, and Just Listed postcards to your neighbors. From listing day to closing, I keep a checklist, and you hear the next step from me before you ask.

For a Dexter home, the campaign matters for a simple reason. Some buyers who would love Dexter are searching in Ann Arbor, just 10 to 20 minutes east. The ads reach buyers in and around the Ann Arbor area, so your home gets in front of people who may not have thought about Dexter yet. Read how it works in how my campaign reaches more buyers.

Showing buyers what Dexter offers

If your home is near downtown, buyers are paying for the walk. The video and drone footage show how close you are to the restaurants, the park and gazebo, and the trail. A buyer picturing summer Friday nights of live music downtown needs to see that it's a short walk away.

If your home is in a more spread-out neighborhood, buyers are paying for room. Drone footage shows the lot, the space between homes, and the setting in a way ground photos can't.

Either way, the listing description gives clear, accurate facts so the buyer can imagine themselves in the home.
