Traditional Sales Explained
Los Angeles’ oldest community
El Sereno, Los Angeles’ oldest community, has undergone a remarkable resurgence in the past decade. With its enchanting rolling hills and convenient proximity to Downtown Los Angeles, Alhambra, and South Pasadena, El Sereno has become a sought-after destination for discerning buyers.
Community Transformation
The city has embarked on a $700 million dollar plan for the revitalization of three pivotal thoroughfares: Huntington Dr., Eastern Ave., and Valley Blvd. The Multi-Modal Transportation Improvement Project aims to elevate the visitor experience by introducing new business storefronts, expanding pedestrian walkways, adding comfortable seating areas, creating inviting green spaces, and dedicated bike lanes. These improvements are poised to positively impact the community, enhancing both connectivity and quality of life for residents.
What to Expect with a Traditional Home Sale
- Your Agent is Here to Guide You: Once you decide to list your home, your dedicated real estate agent will work closely with you to develop a tailored marketing strategy that highlights your property’s unique features and appeals to potential buyers.
- Comprehensive Market Analysis: Your agent will conduct a thorough comparative market analysis (CMA) to determine the optimal listing price for your home. This analysis considers recent sales data, current market conditions, and the unique attributes of your property.
- Professional Photography and Staging: To attract buyers, your agent will arrange for professional photography and staging, ensuring your home looks its best in listings and marketing materials. High-quality visuals can significantly enhance buyer interest.
- MLS Listing and Marketing: Your home will be listed on the MLS, ensuring it reaches a wide audience across major home search sites like Zillow, Realtor.com, and Redfin. This extensive exposure is crucial to attract potential buyers actively searching in your area.
- Open Houses and Showings: Your agent will coordinate open houses and private showings, providing potential buyers with the opportunity to experience your home firsthand. They will also gather feedback to help refine your marketing strategy.
- Negotiating Offers: Once offers start coming in, your agent will present each one to you, providing insights and advice on how to negotiate terms that align with your goals. Their expertise will help you navigate counteroffers and find the best deal.
- Home Inspection and Appraisal: After accepting an offer, the buyer will typically conduct a home inspection and appraisal. Your agent will be there to guide you through this process, addressing any issues that may arise and negotiating repairs if necessary.
- Closing the Sale: Your agent will manage all aspects of the closing process, ensuring that all necessary documents are completed accurately and on time. They will keep you informed every step of the way, making the transition as smooth as possible.
- Final Payout: After closing, you will receive your proceeds from the sale, which can be used for your next steps, whether that’s purchasing a new home or investing elsewhere.
- Ongoing Support: Even after the sale is complete, your agent remains a valuable resource. They can provide guidance on your next steps, whether it’s finding a new home or navigating the financial aspects of your sale.
