Selling your home in Geddes Heights
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 Geddes Heights
Selling your home in Geddes Heights means selling a special setting: a tree-covered pocket between Geddes Road and Nichols Arboretum, very walkable to the University of Michigan hospital, Central Campus, and downtown. It's one of the neighborhoods I know best.
Homes here range from around 100 years old to brand-new builds, and some back right up to the Arb. Those differences matter for price, so I find the sales that truly compare, and we set the price together.
A setting like this is easy to show off. If your home is near the Arb's 123 acres of trails and its Peony Garden, which blooms in late May and early June, the photos, video, and listing will make that clear to every buyer.

Showing the trees, the privacy, and the Arb
In Geddes Heights, the setting sells as much as the house. Drone footage shows the trees, the privacy of your home site, and how close you are to the Arb and campus, in a way ground photos can't.
Professional photos and video show the house itself, whether it's a 100-year-old home with character or a new build. The property website brings everything together in one link for buyers relocating from another state. Read more about how I present a home.
Being upfront about the hills
Geddes Heights is a very hilly area, and some streets are very steep. Buyers will notice, so the listing is clear about it, and the marketing leans into what the setting gives you: trees and privacy close to campus.
A paid social media campaign reaches buyers in and around Ann Arbor, including people moving here for a University of Michigan job. From listing day to closing, I keep a checklist, and you hear the next step before you ask.
